Gift Orban

[FibreOpticJesus]

He's only just turned 21 so would be counted as u21 surely?

Maybe. Just pass the problem onto next season when Udogie, Sarr, and others are over 21. We have a big problem with our homegrown players quantum.

I agree we do have an issue but I think that's part of the reason we're looking at Brennan Johnson as a squad option.

And there lies the problem paying £50m for a £20m player as well as an inflated salary for 6/7 star player.

So in your view we shouldn’t sign non-homegrown players as we have too many but shouldn’t sign homegrown players because they are overpriced?

 

[SDogg]

And which non-homegrown player in our squad of 17 over 21’s is he going to replace? Bearing in mind that our 17 does not include Ndombele, Reg, Lloris.

Perisic, Sanchez, Hojbjerg?

That’s not what I said. Why did you twist my words?

Another Spurs transfer paradox

 

[FibreOpticJesus]

Perisic, Sanchez, Hojbjerg?

And you think they are surplus? We need another cb and rb as well as these.

There’s a question mark at the end pal - you did literally complain about both though.

Possibly, Sanchez definitely is.

Perisic and Dier would be out of contract though. It's always going to be something we will need to juggle each year. We definitely need to improve the quality of our homegrown players though.

This is (another reason) why the Phillips pick up and Devine before him are so crucial. It's not immediate but will allow us to organically dig out of this hole by bringing in one or two a year with such promise.

 

[KirstyG]

If Richy is injured, whether Kane stays or not we need any other striker. If we can get him for good money we could at least keep him til Jan and loan as needed after then.

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

I hope his medical does not involve looking in his mouth.

 

[EQP]

Well, let's get this deal done as soon as possible. Knowing our luck, Richy will need surgery that will keep him out for 3 months.

i think he means specifically johnson is average and overpriced.

 

[robertgoulet]

We gotta sign him.

 

[danny32]

Hope we are on the phone to Gent tonight, need him in asap to cover every eventuality with the Kane situation.

 

[TennesseeYid]

Get him on a plane right now

 

[SpartanSpur]

If Kane goes and we do bring this lad in, what a ridiculous jump it'll be.

Barely two years at first team level and gets a move to Spurs as starting replacement for their record goalscorer (assuming Richy is injured).

No pressure kid.
