My reading is he's a player we're interested in but don't see him as such a vital signing that we'll break the bank for him. We'll monitor his availability and if we buy him, it'll be with the element of opportunism.
If we buy him then we have 4 good options in Bentancur, Sarr, Bissouma and Gallagher with Skipp and Bergvall still developing.
Happy if we get him for a reasonable fee, won't be bothered if he doesn't become available.

Not sure they did, to be honest.
My memory is shocking but I thought Mads was 40m (but with a sale of Winks for 10m, so really only 30), Porro was about 30 odd, Sanchez was 42m including add-ons and Sissoko was 30m.
I also though VdV was about mid thirties?
Johnson was 48m, so the only ones between 50 and 60m would be Richy and Cuti?
Oh, and Tanguy...how could I forget him?!
As I say though, my memory is terrible and I can't be arsed to look it all up.

Tottenham Hotspur - Record arrivals
This transfer statistic shows the compact view of the most expensive signings by Tottenham in the Overall statistics of current season season.
More like £30m-60m.

You’re right, I meant between sixty and thirty mill, with Gallagher being at the lower range of that spectrum at £30m if we do buy him. Assuming of course thirty mill would be his price, but I don’t think we would be interested in him at much higher than that.

Not really sure why he'd want to even leave Chelsea. Seems more like him trying to get the best deal possible.
Then again, I can only begin to imagine what their wage / turnover must be at with the trillion new players they brought in. And I'd imagine he'd be looking for 80 to 100k per week... at least.
For better or worse, I'm a fan. Think he'd be a great fit in our system. Ange loves flexibility, and this guy can play the "8" and "10" position well.

I doubt many will agree with me but if we're looking for an all action midfielder who won't be first choice and is ideally home grown, for my money Ross Barkley is every bit as good as Gallagher and wouldn't cost anywhere near the silly money Chelsea would demand.

His redemption arc has been so awesome.

Was it mostly injury that did for his career so far? (Barkley)
Having watched him recently, & especially after 2day I have to agree. Mind you Lokonga looked really impressive 2day too.

Always liked him and really wanted him before he went to Chelsea but he’s 31 this year so it’s a very hard no from me.

Can honestly say I don't know a single thing about this player.
Looking back, him choosing Chelsea may have been a bit of a turning point for us. If he had lived up to his potential, we would have been a much stronger midfield with him than with the Winks and Sissoko combo. But yeah, I think that ship has passed now.

Barkley is an interesting option. He's done well for Luton this season. I believe he is out of contract this summer. If I'm wrong, he'd still be available for cheap should they get relegated.
Maybe his good form is connected to playing regularly or being the main man, he could struggle as a squad player. But for a 1-2 year he could be a good option.

I believe we looked at him when he left United for Everton
