    Rodrigo Bentancur

    MotM for me today - great vision to snuff out potential danger in midfield, and great stamina to keep plugging gaps in the second half when Fulham finally came forward a little more. The one thing I would have wished for in the transfer window was a commanding CM, but on today's showing, in...

    Fixture & Ticket News 2022/23

    Got two tickets for the Wolves game, taking my son to N17 for the first time. Also my own first visit to the new stadium after 40 or so to games at WHL. Any advice on what to do on matchday that is different to games at the Lane? I am looking forward to walking up the High Road from Seven...

    Giovani Lo Celso

    Maybe Paratici could have sold him for a small fee/obligation to buy (15m) if he had wanted to, but I think we will bank on GLC being a starter for Argentina in Qatar, which may generate much more revenue come January. Don't know if we paid all of the instalments of the amount we agreed with...

    Clement Lenglet

    I still have some hope that we will land one of those three this summer to make the most of making the Top-4 this year.

    Clement Lenglet

    That is the main reason why I am still on the fence regarding Lenglet, even though Conte likes him. In the second half of last season, our three-man defence was particularly good at defending. In spite of the odd long ball from Dier, and the eagerness to join the attack when possible from Davies...

    Clement Lenglet

    Yes and no. It makes sense that, with the squad leaving for Korea tomorrow, people expect Lenglet and Spence to be announced today.

    Clement Lenglet

    Yes, all good points. I also think we want to sign another CB, in addition to Lenglet. A few options: 1) we could buy an upcoming CB with Lenglet filling in the position for this season - although it appears that this is not how Conte works; 2) we are not sure we can get Bremer, Bastoni or Pau...

    Gleison Bremer

    Unless there is already an understanding that Bremer to Inter enables us to move for Bastoni. Still the number one target at LCB I hope.

    Yes, HG-quota is a good prediction tool, because we know that the Club must be keeping an eye on this too. I don't think Conte is counting on either Gil or Sarr this season, and GLC/Ndombele are certainly not in his plans. So 1 must be the number right now - post-Lenglet. If we assume that we...

    Transfer thread

    So assuming reports on Bergwijn are correct, this is where we stand today: IN: Richarlison, 60m; Bissouma, 29m; Perisic, free; Forster, free. Total: 89m OUT: Bergwijn, 30m; CCV, 6m. Total: 36m Balance: 53m For every Spence (15m?), there is likely to be a Winks. Would be even better if we...

    Can you name all Spurs PL players - quiz time

    Oomph, 126. Very disappointed. I still remembered the likes of Jason Cundy, Paolo Tramezzani, Paul Mahorn, and John Hendry to name a few, but I missed so many obvious ones (Kanoute, Nayim, Sherwood, Sissoko). Would have expected to have done much much better.

    Romero (40m), Kulusevski (35m), Bastoni (55m), Spence (20m), Forster (free), Perisic (free), and possibly Eriksen (free) would be 150m altogether, assuming that the ENIC money goes to fees only. That would already be quite a good window. But according to reports, Kulusevski will remain on loan...

    Yes, he was at Euro "2020" - played only in the last group game against Wales. He will have to be pretty good to step into Vertonghen's shoes, but he's 23 so he could grow into them perhaps.

    Tanguy Ndombele

    I don't see this myself to be honest. I do think we need a second midfielder to play alongside Skipp/Bentancur/PEH who can really create (like NDombele), but that midfielder also has to be able to run - otherwise the balance gets lost. Someone like Eriksen or a younger version of Modric would be...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Over the last twenty years or so, I think Levy has tended to hold quite a few cards of his own - no reason to start underestimating him now just because of Conte. I too think he will want to stick with Conte - who wouldn't? I was just saying that if things go wrong for whatever reason - and I...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    I think Levy holds a stronger hand this summer, in terms of manager negotiations, because of the situation in Paris where Poch looks set to leave. But I'm confident he will do everything to keep Conte, and that what he will do (i.e. spend) will be enough.

    Interesting and somewhat predictable too. Would the player want this? In the Conte system, there is no natural place for him - even less so than at City I would say. If Kane is fit he starts, same for Son.

    Make two statement signings like Van Dijk/Allison and kick on. This would be a great summer to do that. In a perfect world that would be Rice and Pau Torres.
