Pau López out on loan?
While I don't know if I approve of it I think that if Pau comes, Vorm goes and Pau is our new #2.

No thanks, as highly rated as he might be in Spain, he's untested in England and you usually find when keepers fail to adapt it is more costly than on any other area of the pitch.While I don't know if I approve of it I think that if Pau comes, Vorm goes and Pau is our new #2.

Vorm has to remain no2 for me, no point in getting rid when Lloris will likely remain our keeper for the next 4 or 5 years yet. Let's be honest, unless he's ridiculously good, Pau isn't going to topple Lloris. There will be plenty of good keepers we can sign when Lloris is finished.
Just too much of a risk for me. Imagine if Lloris was out for a couple of months. Are people comfortable with us potentially going a whole CL group stage say with Lopez in goal? I say if it's not broken don't fix it for now.I agree to a certain extent but at some point you need to give a young keeper a chance to prove himself and working closely with Lloris while being called upon to deputize when needed could prove useful to his growth. If anything I trust our coaches who's seen him in training for the last year and if they think he could do Vorm's job then I won't be against it.

I agree regarding the coaches but surely they realise he will be instantly targeted by our opposition. I don't think any amount of coaching can prepare for a potential Tony Pulis set piece onslaught for instance. There is no way to replicate the aggression and desire of the opposition in a training ground scenario in my opinion. You also potentially have the kid being afraid to make mistakes and you have to be brave as a goalkeeper.I'm not comfortable doing it with Vorm neither, either will be a big drop in quality and could be costly.
Our coaches will know whether Pau is ready to perform when needed at same level as Vorm.
Reckon Peterborough have moved on, they didn't want to wait until August to see what happen with McGee.
While we made demand that McGee is to go on a pre season tour with us to the US and be assesed before we make a loan decision.
Peterborough director of football Barry Fry told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire last month that their pursuit of Luke McGee had been abandoned following talks with Levy.
“I spoke to Daniel Levy myself and he said that they’ll most probably sell him, but it won’t be until August,” Fry said to BBC Radio Cambridgeshire. “I passed the message on to the manager and the chairman, and they have told me to move on.”

After only the announcement was missing, Tottenham transfer now said to be off
Sunday was a great day for Pau Lopez. The goalkeeper got married and, more importantly for the purposes at hand, it was reported Tottenham and Espanyol had started talking again about a deal.
Not only that, Spanish newspaper Sport said an agreement was ‘very close’, an announcement was said to be on the way, and Pau would finally, FINALLY, be a Tottenham player on a permanent basis.
Sport claimed a deal would be done at €2.5m, which managed to please both clubs.
Doves were released into the air and a fat lady warmed up her vocal chords. Hurrah, the end is nigh!
But no, it’s not to be, explain AS.
Ruining the happy ending, AS say Tottenham’s interest may well be reborn, but the word from Espanyol is: ‘Pau stays’
Roberto Jimenez is off to Malaga, and Pau will now be second choice behind Diego Lopez. Then he can leave for free in a year, perhaps to Tottenham speculate AS.
To Pau, this transfer has seemed like china in his hand.
I'm also certain the near keeper of the group in that picture is pau, with McGee released, this is done.About 90% certain I saw Pau walk out at hotspur way on the the Spurs official Snapchat.
Possibly an agreement in place similar to GNK?
