Finney Is Back

I think a bit too similar as you state.If richarlison could stay fit him and solanke could be interesting. Although maybe too similar. Both can hold the ball up but poach.

I think Khannouss is a good player with a really high upside. I'd be more than happy for Spurs to sign him.
Another player that I like in the championship is Middlesboro's Finn Azaz. He was a slightly late bloomer being 24 now but is a really creative passer who creates lots of chances despite not being in a great team.
The player from the championship last season that I think we missed out on is Borja Sainz. A left sided attacker as opposed to a central player but very talented. Porto signed him from Norwich this summer for around £15m. I expect Porto will be selling him to the PL for at least 3 times that fee in a couple of year's time.
If looking beyond England for potential number 10 type players my top choice this summer would've be Alex Baena from Villareal but I just noticed that Atletico Madrid bought him for about £37m (great fee that!) Alberto Moleiro is another very good attacking player at Villareal but I doubt they would sell him having sold Baena this summer.
Another option would've been the Isreali playmaker Oscar Gloukh but Ajax snapped him up a few days ago.
And you all know my top choice was Enzo Millot who is moving to the Saudi league.
I also think Fabio Carvalho has a lot of quality. He moved from Liverpool to Brentford last summer, though I can't see Brentford being prepared to lose yet another player.
It seems we may have missed the boat somewhat when it comes to a bunch of promising attacking midfielders that were available this summer.
It might make sense for us to adopt the Brighton model of signing players before they are ready and loaning them out. The following are all talented young attacking midfield players who could be brought in via that method:
Santiago Toloza at Independiente,
Aimar from Osasuna,
Fabian Rieder at Rennes,
and Junior Kroupi at L'Orient
Suspect all of those could be purchased for reasonably low fees if we then left them at their current club next season. Doesn't solve our 'now' problem but does look to the future.
I don't think Devine will make it at Spurs unfortunately. Donley probably has a 1 in 4 chance of making it. We can't just hope that this will happen and instead have to prepare an alternative or two in the hope that one of the 3 or 4 makes it. If you buy the others at the right time and give them the right loans and exposure then the risk of financial loss isn't particularly high.With Donley and Devine in the for future basket, and Kulu and Maddison in their prime (Maddison getting slightly beyond that), our sweet spot is probably the 22-25 bracket. Which I guess is where all of MGW, Elliot, Khannouss and MaAtee sit.
We should start offering some of the players we want out to them. Im sure one of them would join themAre Saudi Sportswashing Machine being turned down by everyone?
Richie and Bissouma would be good for them but we don’t really sell to other premier league clubs often. When was the last time we sold anyone to a Prem team? KWP?We should start offering some of the players we want out to them. Im sure one of them would join them
I wonder if we might offer Richy in exchange for NdiayeRichie and Bissouma would be good for them but we don’t really sell to other premier league clubs often. When was the last time we sold anyone to a Prem team? KWP?
Were Leicester in the prem when we sold them Skipp and Winks?

This seems like people calling for a name from what I've seen of him, he always seems poorIt would worry me if we signed Leao. In the CL games we played under Conte against AC Milan he looked to be one of those players that did some magical things with the ball, interspersed with some awful things but ultimately seemed to have terrible end product. Maybe he has improved since then but I think he would be an expensive flop in the PL.
Winks went when they were Im the championship. Skipp PL I think.
Then back to KWP
