Suddenly there's a much more optimistic feeling about what the January window will bring!

Speed and workrate are two of the things that seem most consistent with Lucas. End-product, successful passing, correct decision making...not as much.
There's a reason that Mourinho said that Moura was exactly the sort of player that teams need

Chris Wood loan deal collapses at 23:58, leaving us with no business completed

That IS optimistic for you!
You didn't say Jordan Rhodes

I disagree, i think he'd be a big flop here in PL...

I'm not sure we need a third player in the Hojberg and Skipp mould, with Sarr coming too; its about our last priority
I think he's a bit more attacking that PEH and Skipp, but agree that its not top priority. However, if we sign him and sell Winks, we net a transfer fee albeit with a higher wage bill
The HG/non-HG balance is a bit of a concern though and this complicates things more
Finney Is Back
Luka Modric
I see Kessie as being a box to box midfielder with good attacking skills as opposed to more of a defensive minded player as PEH and Skipp are. Bringing in Kessie on a free and selling Lo Celso (or Lo So So) as the guy who sits behind me at Spurs now calls him) would be a very sensible move IMO.

Hmm, that HG isue.. can anyone think of any British/HG players that Conte might ask Levy to sign in January or the summer?

I think that would be downgrading our creative and ballplaying capabilities, which is the last thing we need. We have to use this change in formation to try and get two proper passers into CM. Swap Lo Celso for a like-for-like if there's one we prefer e.g. Barella, but not someone where we net lose creativity.

Barkley and Drinkwater.

That would be good.
Pope and/or Sam Johnstone

There's no point have 3 senior GKs, and Golini seems fine as back-up.
I think Bergwijn and Rodon are the players most viable to replace with HGs (assuming Doherty and Davies don't need replacing, and the Sarr is replacing Winks).
Lamptey, McNeil or Madueke for Bergwijn?
Guehi or Lascalles (if Saudi Sportswashing Machine go down) for Rodon?
I was thinking Guehi too.
Pope of Johnstone could replace Gollini now given he's only on loan and potentially take over from Lloris. Johnstone is out of contract so a no brainer is to me

Tell us more about Guehi...and why you'd think he's a) better than Rodon and b) could play for a Conte team?
