    More likely they’ll play a front 3 of Kane, Son and Richarlison with Kulusevski and Bergwijn as back up if the latter doesn’t move on.

    It will be harsh to drop Kulusevski who impressed last year

    Richarlison is a decent player, no question, but the front 3 they have was ridiculous last season, and Kuluevski will keep on improving.

    Just confused why a Brazilian international would go to a club when he isn’t gonna be a starter. Could understand him going United or Arsenal, Spurs just makes no sense in either side.

    Richarlison doesn't want to go to Spurs. He wants to go to Chelsea.

    Yep - but you don’t sign a £60m forward for him to sit on the bench. Not bad options to have to be fair, they’re back in the CL so fixture congestion will play it’s part. And being able to give Kane a rest and have someone who can naturally play as a striker replace him will be massive.

    We've been linked to signing Derby left-back Craig Forsyth. Would be on a free

    Spurs could do worse than let Chelsea have him and pay £30million for Werner.

    Richarlison makes a lot more sense for Chelsea he’d be a beast there, Werner is more suited to how Spurs play.

    I gather this may be tongue in cheek but there’s a lot more logic to it.

    No denying he’s a quality player…when he wants to be. He’s just very inconsistent and very Neymar like with his rolling around and cheating.

    Not seen him much but we do need cover at LB. I know we were linked with Brady early in the window

    Disagree on this, I think he's an amazing singing for them. Can play anywhere across the front 3 which is exactly what they need for rotation purposes.

    The idea of "starters" doesn't really apply to a team that wants to challenge for all four trophies, which is what Conte will be envisaging. There has to be rotation, nobody can play every single game in 4 competitions in a season.

    I see it like the Liverpool situation: last year, Salah and Mané played 51 games each (all comps), Jota played 55, Diaz played 26 (joined half way through the season). Games were split almost exactly evenly between the 4 of them, I see the same thing happening at Spurs next year.

    Good post. I think Richarlison would be good for Spurs, being able to play right across the front line is a massive plus.

    Wouldn't touch Richarlison mesell. Clearly has some talent, but he's not as good as he thinks he is.

    Might be better with his Billy Big Bollocks attitude when he is among players who are clearly better than him, but I wouldn't bet on it.

    he reminds me of Wilf Zaha going from Palace to Utd then back. Both of them seem the kind of players who NEED to be a big fish in a smaller pond. Otherwise their egos get hurt and they don't show up.

    I might be completely wrong about him, don't know him obviously :D
