Obviously depends on who the manager is come the summer, but I’d be very surprised if we bought him.Tottenham Hotspur willing to make an offer to purchase Barcelona defender
Clement Lenglet was one of many Barcelona players that left Camp Nou on loan last summer in favour of more game-time elsewhere. He joined Tottenham Hotspur on a season-long loan deal, as part of Xavi’s plan to make space in the defensive unit. Lenglet’s departure paved the way for Barcelona to...barcauniversal.com
Yeah, as far as it goes as a hasty stop gap loan for a position we need to fill long term he's been OK. I was hoping for more on the ball playing front, but defensively he's at least not prone to regular and inexplicable mistakes, even if he is a bit slow and not overly proactive.I mean, he's not been terrible but he's not the type of lcb we all want, or need.
If he's cheap, say 10m, then it's not a bad deal but depending on our finances, surely there's better out there to be had?
I just don't see him as a massive upgrade on Davies. I don't think Davies is necessarily at the right level either so pretty underwhelming.
Yup agree with you on this.Agree, but you keep Davies as we already have him and is home grown, association trained. Then look to bring in a better player to start at LCB.
He's not shown enough to warrant a purchase.
Why are you not against us signing another solid player when we already have one in his position? This is exactly the kind of signing we don't need to clutter the squad withNot against buying Lenglet. He’s not one of the reasons why we can’t defend. Both him and Davies are solid, but not spectacular.
I think we’ll improve our defence for free if the coaches tell Perisic to stop lunging in, and if they remind Dier to show defenders on to their weaker foot.
