As is Hojbjerg. I think there's an arguement for keeping both (particularly with Sarr + Bissouma going to AFCON and Bentancur not having made a successful return to first-team action yet). We could probably get away with selling one of the two without a replacement, but selling both without a replacement would be risky.

Hope he has a Stormer, need the whole squad firing if we're to have a good year.

Of course wouldn't be disappointed to see him stay but likely we need to sell a few that we would prefer to keep just to reduce the squad size. He doesn't improve our starting 11 so much like PEH if we don't have enough interest in our other subs / squad players then we might have to let him go.

Gio Lo Celso stays at Tottenham. The club takes this into account and is going to play in the Premier League this season.

Logical solution is to keep him this season and reassess his situation next summer once Eze is on the market.
Think his stock will be increased or at least the same next summer

Nice. Glad to see it.
The reported offers for him were pitiful anyway. Can probably get a similar fee for him next summer if we want to move him on.

I think he'll do really well in the system. Nice to have a one touch player pinging it around.

Agree. Very happy by this outcome. I hope he earns himself a new contract this season.

I just don't get why we would spend a lot of money to replace Gio with Eze. Makes no sense to me when there are places we need to actually spend money on. Not even remotely convinced Eze is a better player either. At least this season any time Gio gets will be in a system that should allow him to show what he can do. Unlike any of his time with Spurs to date

Once we’re back in Europe and hoping to challenge for titles it will be about having options across the park and strength in depth; like other top sides have. I think JM is going to be first choice for many seasons but we’ll need another option that we can rely on if JM is injured, needs rotating or to come off the bench without our level dropping too much. If Gio proves that he is the answer this season then great; but Eze is a top talent and will likely be available for around the same price as we paid for Maddison next summer with 1 year left on his current deal. He also could be an option at LW.

The bid scale goes:
derisory -> insulting -> cheeky -> opening -> big -> important -> huge -> whopping -> astonishing
