Giannelli Imbula

Reading today that the makeweight has changed from Stambouli to Capoue

Why don't we just buy Tiote off the barcodes then?

I think Tiote is an awful player. Very physical but not much in the way of footballing ability and a poor reader of the game, which is a critical attribute of a DM. Not for me.

Decent player but he has missed a lot of Prem games over the last 5 years because of injury and suspension.

Marseille forums also buzzing about a bid from City. Hmm.

They can have both of them

We better get this sorted before the really big guns come! He is really good, and will become a world beater! GET HIM LEVY!!!!!

Maybe a draw of Spurs is that younger players progress. Rather than go on loan or sit on the bench. Would this guy improve our first team? Would he rotate with Chadli?

Chadli is not centre midfield player in mould of this guy ..different positions

 

[SpurMeUp]

So he'd be rotating with Mason/ Bentaleb potentially?

[P.D.]

I'm sure we could match the fee, especially with the exchange rate getting better and better and probably convince him to come to us over IM, they aren't up to much these days. Assume we have other targets.

We could be back in for him now that Inter have singed Kondogbia and not interested anymore..

 

[P.D.]

Where did Inter get £25m for Kondogbia from?

billionaire owner who likes to spend his cash

 

[P.D.]

I thought the new owner was talking about being more sensible and helping restore Serie A's reputation a bit along the lines of Germany, not just doing what Moratti did which crippled them really. Even so their revenue is only around £115m or so. Be interesting to see how they meet FFP as they signed Sharquiri and Vidic who are probably on decent wages and likely more incomings to be confirmed over the summer.
