    Eriksen is already stalling on signing a new contact according to the Standard. Spurs have apparently offered him £150k the same as Alli. He could earn double that at Barca, Utd, Real or PSG, but I think it will come down more to whether he feels he can win trophies at spurs.

    Is Piskie planning our future again?

    He's always spot on so i think we should be concerned

    I called it all in the summer. He's perfect for Barca and they'll be looking for a long term Rakitic replacement for next season. We've gotta win something to make him think staying would be worthwhile and even that may not guarantee it, it's why I was so pissed we didn't strengthen in the summer. We're in a similar situation that Pool were in, in that they lacked a good CB and GK. They got both and now they're cruising. We lack one, ideally two good CMs to be able to rotate around, get that sorted and I'd fancy us to do well and maybe even pick up a rare pot.

    I haven’t decided who I’ll sell Eriksen to yet bro, so no need to panic just yet

    Out of that group Kane, Alli, Son, Eriksen, Dier who make you tick. I think Eriksen looks the most likely to up sticks and ply his trade somewhere else.

    There’s a few players of yours who are reaching that age 25+ where they know the next contract will be the biggest ones of their careers and provide the best opportunities for them to win trophies.

    How many more seasons do you spurs fans give these players before you’d agree that they would be better off at a bigger club ?

    I reckon he's off in the summer. Hopefully we can buy a few players who will be ready to make an appearance for us in about 2024

    Ross Barkley would be my guess for the coke sniffer.

    I’ve just been on the blower to poch who told me he wants to take Eriksen to Utd with him in the summer.

    If you want me to have a word for you, I might be able to sell him abroad for you ?

    Alli, Kane and Son I’m not worried about, at least for now. Maybe in a couple more years if we still haven’t done anything they might decide to call it a day but I’m not worried about the immediate future with those. As much as I rate Dier, I doubt he’d be able to leave Spurs for a better club.

    Yup .i can't see Harry leaving for a while.

    Erikssen i reckon will be offskis.

    Alli won't be leaving for a while after signing that contract. As good as he is I'm not sure anyone would offer the money levy would want for him.

    Sonny has only been with you for 2 and a bit years. He's got a while yet.

    I’d dread to think what Levy will ask for Kane and Alli. Eriksen as well but I think the English premium on the other two would scare too many clubs.

    This is actually Son’s fourth season lol. He just had a poor debut year which weren’t helped with injuries so people probably didn’t notice him much. He proper loves this club though, you also just get the feeling with him he’s happy to play football in the Premier League and nothing else really matters. No doubt he wants to win stuff but I think with him, purely playing football is all that he cares about, he’s a rare breed. (Cue him putting in a transfer request in the summer now).

    Saints fans of a certain age will remember being 3-0 up at half time in the Cup there; and losing 4-3.

    A certain Glenn Hoddle was our manager at the time <grr>

    Yeah, one of those that's been around for a while but still relatively young. Was a long time target for us too, wanted him after his breakthrough season at Hamburg, ended up waiting like another 3/4 years until he was killing it at Leverkusen.
