    I ****ing love the guy.

    Yes, he’s more or less guaranteeing two red cards a season (at least) on top of about 10 yellows but he’s someone that just truly “gets it” whilst being a fantastic player. Dare I say it but the closest thing to a Sergio Ramos we’ll ever get.

    And then he does **** like this when he ain’t even on the pitch <laugh>

    Oh absolutely, Chiesa is top class. However, considering he tore his ACL at the start of January, it makes it even more surprising that Juventus allowed Kulusevski to leave at all, let alone for a permanent deal.

    McKennie’s season is over, Bernadeschi hasn’t been performing for ages now and Cuadrado is 33.

    Baffling decision to let him leave.

    But hey, their loss is your gain…

    No pressure on Tranmere, but next season there's a very real chance of having a Merseyside team in each of the top three divisions for the first time since the 60s

    Bentacur is such a stylish player, so composed and Kulu is such a talent. From a distance I think its Kane the way he moves on the ball.
    Disagree about Foden being overrated though, I think he's a superb little player and I'd love him at Spurs.

    He's having a scan on a possible hamstring problem today, which might explain his dropoff

    to be fair to sheringham, kane's a world beater who most if not all teams would have and he could move to.

    Rashfords currently a 2 bit striker with potential, would any club better than united automatically want to buy him let alone pay big bucks for

    It is becoming increasingly difficult to speak about Rashford in terms of 'potential'. He is going on 25 years of age and has made close to 200 PL appearances plus anther 100+ in cup games.

    He just isn't a particularly good player. Lovely bloke, but very limited on the pitch.

    When Teddy went to Man Utd, Spurs were meh and
    unlikely to win any silverware. Nothing he in
    particular could do to change that.

    Kane has been an immense part as to why Spurs
    have actually been in two real PL title races, and
    had a number of consecutive seasons in the CL.

    That value is why the Levy tax on Kane is so high,
    and why the club want to keep him.

    Lazy comparison by me but he’s just another Danny Welbeck, I can see him going to Arsenal just like Welbeck did too

    Pretty much said the exact same the other day. He’s a solid backup striker for a top six/ seven side or a starter for a team in mid-table, nothing more. He may do better abroad though if he takes the punt of doing so.

    i made to point on our board that at half time it would be at least 5 if Son was on his game though by the time i had finished typing it was 4 anyway <laugh>
    Should point out Everton are poor at home but away they are truly dire and gutless to make it worse .
    PS do like the look of Kulashaker (sp) from the bits i've seen .

    I’d 100% take him as a backup, he would also get game time off the left. He’s scored some very nice goals for United over the years and hit 17 in the PL a couple years ago but just seems to have a lot of inconsistency. Whether that’s injuries or something else, I don’t know enough to say. But I reckon he’s worth approx. 10 goals a year as a backup striker which is more than you can say for most of the others in our squad. HG too. We could do worse.

    Jamie Carragher said that last night proves that Harry Kane doesn't have the pace he once had

    How many Spurs games has Jamie Carragher watched in the last six years? Harry Kane's never been a pacey player

    Haha it’s Kulusevski, a lot easier to just say Kulu though, it’s fair to say most of us are already in love with the guy. It’s been a while since Spurs have made a signing that’s made an immediate impact, both he and Bentancur have been massive improvements on former options.

    Speaking of Kulusevski, his chant got going a little yesterday in the south stand, for those that haven’t heard it yet:

    In all fairness, if Carra had made that point 18/24 months ago then he might have something. Kane was never the fastest but could shift when he had to, but he’d looked like he was carrying a bit of timber and had lost a yard. He looks in great nick now though and seems to have found a better balance with his physique.

    I'm convinced that our fitness coaches under the ubermensch mainly had our players eating Big Macs
