    Nice try DH <ok> but his family home is Cardiff and if, a big if, fit he would get more game time at Cardiff. Couldn't see him playing for Spurs for free.

    Although Levy might like that. <whistle>

    I know how you feel, I'm the same.

    As well as for Dele and Lo Celso.

    Don't even dislike Winks as much as those guys, should give an indication of my views on them.

    He'd still find a way of saying it's too expensive...

    Italian journalist, Marco Conterio, has gone along the lines as others with the Bentancur and Kulusevski stuff but also claims Paratici is trying to negotiate a deal for Diego Carlos that involves Lo Celso going the other way.

    Edit:
    It's worth adding though that Sevilla are big rivals to Betis, who we signed Lo Celso from, so if the move did happen, Lo Celso wouldn't be too liked in one half of Seville.

    Bentancur, Kulusevski and Carlos would be a big boost in the help for top 4

    Those 3 in and then Ndombele, Dele, Lo Celso and Rodon out on loan would be good business.

    Unfortunately I can’t see all that happening

    I think the Juve duo could be on, sounds like Kulusevski wants to come and I reckon Bentancur would be up for it too, just down to our end of making it happen.

    I think Carlos will be tougher, partly because Sevilla don't seemingly wanna lose him but also because Lo Celso may not fancy going to his old club's rivals. I'm also 50-50 on Carlos too, no denying he's a good defender but he's a bit of a hot head with disciplinary issues and seeing as Romero is also quite a hot head I'm not sure having two of them in a back three is the best idea, plus I think we should be ideally looking for a left footed CB to compete with Davies.

    Ndombele's now apparently (re)opened the door to other sides this January, there were rumours Valencia had earlier agreed a deal with us but he didn't want to join them and only wanted PSG, now that the move to the French side has seemingly broken down he'll now consider offers elsewhere. Rumoured clubs are Leverkusen, Everton and Valencia.

    It's actually incredible he has multiple teams interested in him.

    On one hand it is quite sweet to see people clinging on to hope that we'll get rid of Ndombele, Lo Celso and Dele and get three good players in.

    On the other hand it is a bit like watching a pissed up wide boy expecting to pull at the end of the night with puke on his chin and his piss stained trousers barely above his knees <laugh>

    It wasn't a secret that he had issues when we signed him. There is always the conceit that he can be managed. Good luck with that.

    I’d love to see the club bring him back to Spurs for the rest of the season for a third spell.

    Which is no doubt why we're trying to get Kessie done this month, or at least were before Barca had to be irritating

    Getting it done this month would have potentially meant he was paid £80-100k a week, but in the summer? Various reports said he was asking between £120-150k, which while not as pisstaking an amount as Rabiot trebling his wages overnight is basically double his Milan wages

    Ndombele to PSG's tanked

    So, odds of sending him to Everton to lower the price of Calvert-Lewin in the summer...?

    Why would he agree to sign early and get worse wages? He holds all the cards.

    Surprised you haven't reacted to the news that Spurs are looking at this guy.
