Demitri_C Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Just now, striker said: Been watching Lo Celso closely against Villa and now against City. Very good tidy player who would be a quality replacement for either McGinn or Luiz to give those players a rest. I know Villa would have to deal with Levy but he’d be a very good squad signing and much better than Donk! I think he has worked with emery as well before so it could be a good move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The_Steve Posted December 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 3, 2023 Konsa was too exposed today at right back (not his fault). But he’s a CB. We need a RB as clearly Cash isn’t delivering and need a break. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Spurs do a top 6 rival a favour and sell in form player with 2 goals in 2 games back and year and a half left on contract. This is like Luiz to Arsenal nonsense that people get mad about on here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Is Lenglet actually injured? He's played a few games in europa for us yet isn't even making the bench for premier league. Can see Barca recalling him in January as he's playing way less than he was for Spurs 12 months back. Can see him, Donk, Chambers and Traore all moving on next month which hopefully gives enough flexibility for 2-3 to come in and actually make a difference off the bench or starting. RB for sure will be coming in you suspect so Konsa basically just plays CB for whole of second half of the season which we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes once we get to QF stage we'll be playing our first choices as can't think of too many teams who've attempted to win European competitions playing reserve players at quarters or SF stage. Would be like Man. City resting Ruben Dias if they were playing Real Madrid in CL SF just to play him against Burnley in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unai definitely trusts him as well (signed him twice already) I think we probably enquired right at the start of the summer but it's Levy so you know the rest. Then moved on to Tielemans who's a similar profile and he's starting to show what he was like at Leicester which is promising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakotaVilla Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I don’t want to see Konsa at right back again nor Tielemans in the double pivot. They are the glaring deficiencies in the squad at the moment so just a question of whether we can attract the calibre of right back and 6/8 hybrid that we need in January. Then try and sell/loan Donks, Chambers and Traore to balance the books where we can. In the summer we can look at striker cover, whether an upgrade to Zaniolo is needed and reserve GK. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan95 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Out: Chambers, Donk, Traore In: RB, DM, ST Would be ideal. But very difficult in January. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been saying we needed another top DCM to rotate with Kamara/injuries and suspensions. the konsa at right back crew are deeply wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bournemouth exploited this by flooding the midfield and attacking down the right. Teams can spot our weaknesses and exploit them. Konsa looked way more comfortable in his usual position and Youri was too deep to really influence the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
