Two down one to go. SKY Sports won’t know where to turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the biggest question mark with him is how suitable of a replacement/upgrade would he be on Nakamba, he's perhaps more similar to Luiz, certainly not an out and out DM, even though he has played there a decent amount of times. I remember watching him for Lyon and being very impressed, I thought he was going to be a big signing for Spurs. I wouldn’t even take him on loan. My view in the summer was if he’s not motivated by mourinho in London in that new stadium with the facilities they have then who or what’s going to motivate him. Now Contes there and it’s the same story. Don’t want a player like that in the team 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Even if we sign Digne, I wouldn't be surprised to see us still go for Hickey in the summer, as well as Targett has done I'm not sure it makes much sense having two left-backs in their late twenties. As we strengthen more and more we're going to have to say goodbye to a few old favorites. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I think it would be much harder to replace Mings than it would Targett, especially as it's not just about replacing him as a footballer but everything else he brings to the team. Maybe we will get there at some point but isn't something urgently needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the start of the season has shown we need to make bigger jumps than we thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking how City did for the Lerner dream of Champs League. Yeah think we are doing what we should have actually done when the iron was hot and Man City et al just came in. Instead, we tucked our tails between our legs and died a slow death. We've had alot of the same setbacks as we have in the past, with these owners. I've always thought the difference will be, HOW they respond to these challenges, so far, they haven't shied away.

foreveryoung Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I wonder if we will still be interested in JWP in the summer. Rumour was he signed a new contract and put in a buy out clause so Southampton can get decent money for him. Same agent as Grealish, so could be bang on, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’ll sign a DM in this window and we won’t stunt the progress of Ramsey. This ship has sailed I’m afraid. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
