Curious as to where the 40-50m is coming from if there's no player exchange. I know we're not skint, and presumably we've got outgoings lined up which will cover some of it, but it's just very un-Spurs like, especially in a post-stadium, post-covid scenario.
Instalments are what allows us to do these deals.

So, at Atalanta he plays in the middle of a back 3. I wonder if this hints at Nuno potentially moving toward an attack-minded back 3 set up... similar to that of Atalanta, RB Leipzig.

Starts with a no-nonsense MCB. Seems like he fits the bill. As would Rodon. If we buy another defender coming from a back 3 system, then one can only assume he's going to have two systems in place: 1) Back 3 (that can be attacking and defensive) and 2) The hybrid 433 we saw against Colchester.

Interesting days ahead!!

romero played in 4 at back for argies

We still miss a left-footed Centre-back. That's the only thing that is not optimal about this signing. I miss Superjan so much.

Who would play LCB in 3 at the back?Ben Davies might be the best choice tbh.
Damned if I know. But hopefully Nuno and that Paratici fella have a plan!

(If I had my druthers, it would be Andersen... although he is NOT left footed, I believe he played as a MCB and LCB last season for Fulham, and for the most part, was excellent).

Romagnoli could be a shout if Don Fabio continues his Serie A hunt. 1 year left on contract. Lovely left peg....
