Are Spurs ripe for picking

Postby Dimples » Tue Apr 17, 2018 4:44 pm

Walker will have told his Spurs mates if you want to: win medals and double your wages - join City (or Real, Bayern...)
The Spurs players know that Levy pays peanuts but demands top top $ for transfer fees.
Given the above I cannot see how Spurs can keep that squad together. Logic says their top players will want out.

Who from the Spurs squad would you like to see at City? (for me it is: Alderweireld, Verthongen and Kane).

Vertonghen is too old for the template as is Alderweild whose injury record is creeping toward that if kaptain K's!

Harry Kane is hard to argue against.

There was lots of noise over Poch taking over from Zidane but that has all gone quiet.

I think Kane will erk out one more season unless Poch does go.

I would take Kane in a heart beat.

Imagine him with Silva, KDB, Sane and Silva behind.

Son would be a good squad player and provide competition for Sané/Sterling/Bernardo.

Take Kane in a heartbeat. Never happen though, either he’d be reluctant to move with his young family as he is a local boy or Levy would just ask for too high a transfer fee

I’d toy with Eriksen and unsettle him only to tell him to go fuck himself and that he should have chosen us when he had the chance and not made shitty comments.

There is a radical difference between signing for City these days or a.n. other team.

If you keep your nose clean and the owner likes you , you will be kept busy well into retirement being called upon for a variety of work, all around the world because of the Massive business interests the owner has.

Certainly a better offer than working in a Casino or demolishing defunct Shopping Malls in the US of A.

Am I the only one who would not take Kane. His shot conversion rate is poor and except for this season his link up play is poor. Many times I have seen him break in a 4 on 3 with Kane with the ball and he messes it up. Have also seen plenty of attacks breakdown with kane taking a shot with team matesin a better position.

Kane is ok for spurs system but they will never win anything big with the system thet have now, kane is just too wasteful in the big games

I recognise Kane's stats but don't really want him in our team.

And anyway, what would poor Pep call Spurs then, the Dele team?

Loads of excellent players kane and eriksen been the best two to fit our model. Eeiksen a great natural succeser to dave.

Id take davies and even trippier(altho mase says no chance)

Son would be an excellent utility player too at the right price.

No to Alli, lloris or anyone else thats kicking on though. Young young young thats what i want.

Ericsson not fit to lace daves boots imo. Only players I'd take are dembele and son as utility.

Not pushed on any of them now, would’ve said Loris and Vertonghen In the past but not now.

Eriksen is a very good player but we’ve plenty of similar but superior players already.

I’d hate to sign Kane, one of those players that I just can’t take to at all.
