We operate in the same way as every other club that just can't afford to pay whatever it takes willy nilly. We're not the only club involved when it comes to transfers. It appears many people think so. None other than clubs, agents and player knows what's going on in a particular transfer. We lose some and we get some, just like every other club!
Reading here one is to believe that every other club gets every player they want, and at the time they want, and we are the only club that doesn't. Some need a fudging reality check!

Hoping that's SkippIt would be a start.
An athletic tough tackling midfielder to give holberg a rest sometimes.

So a great window?
Henderson
Tarkowski (he can audition this week)
Sven Botman
Skipp returns in CM and be outstanding if we signed another
Possibly Saint maxim for a wide attacker and impact player or Lookman...
And danny Ings
Would that be a good window ?
Brooks would be great if he can stay fitI think the championship would be a good place to look.
Brooks, Sarr, Olise etc. Olise is the sort of creativity we really need.
Brooks would be great if he can stay fit
Olise could be a bargain
Maignan (likely to be considerably cheaper than Henderson). Onana at Ajax also has only a year left.So a great window?

Onana will still be bannedMaignan (likely to be considerably cheaper than Henderson). Onana at Ajax also has only a year left.
Any two of Tarkowski, Ginter, Elvedi, Schafer, Milenkovic, Orban
Any of Zakaria(still probably too expensive even with 1 year left), Soumare, Sabitzer
Thuavin on a free would do for a wide attacker if we can’t afford either of your two. Deepay also free but I think you said Barcelona bound?
Marega (on a free) or Edoard up front if Ings too expensive.
Hysaj is also on a bosman from Napoli if we can’t get Aurier to sign a new deal or want to upgrade Doherty.
My ideal (semi realistic from a cost perspective) squad for next season would be:
GK: Mangala, Lloris, Hart
RB: Aurier, Hysaj, Tanganga
LB: Regulion, Sessegnon, Cirkin
CB: Tarkowski, Elvedi, Rodon, Toby
MF: Hojbjerg, Soumare, Skipp, Lo Celso
AM: Ndombele, Sabitzer, Dele
WF: Son, Thuavin, Bergwijn, Clarke
CF: Kane, Marega
There’s even still room in that for a further overseas player in our PL squad
That is a lot of incomings to do of course, though 3 are on free’s and, in theory, we could get them on pre contract deals now. All three would see a decent hike in wages coming to Spurs and would be likely to happily join us I think. Also every player that I have mentioned has an advantageous (for us) contract situation. All are therefore gettable if we act quickly and decisively.
Selling the deadwood of Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Doherty, Sissoko, Winks, Lamela, Moura probably funds all but about £30 million of the transfer fees as well.
That does assume that both Aurier and Son sign new contracts however.
I think that will be overturned.Onana will still be banned
Neither can I.... which is a shame as all those transfers in are entirely doable.I can't see us with 8 incomings and 8 outgoings, even if some are on a free!
