All CL dependent, and assuming James is done:

You're looking at Griezmann/Lukaku/Morata (one of)
Oblak if DDG goes.
Gimenez or Keane
DM

That's still pretty optimistic targeting too, not convinced on Morata coming this way at all, totally dependent on Chelsea

So not a lot different to what I said then ;)

I want us to improve in areas we have to in the summer but I'd rather us buy no one than force players like Rashford and Tuanzebe out of our future plans.

These two are good enough to be in our squad now, maybe not playing every game, especially Tuanzebe. But I've been very impressed with Tuanzebe in what I've seen, him and Bailly as a partnership would be quite exciting.

But yes we do need another CB because I'm hoping Jones or Smalling goes this summer.

Rashford has made 50 appearances this season, **** of a lot for a young player. He's doing all the work, need another forward to supplement him.

Agree on young Alex, bring him in, lose one of Jones or Smalling, bring in a top class defender

DM in too.

Full back areas depend on the likes of Shaw etc

Yeah **** of a lot of games then add on top of that he's said he wants to go to the Euro in the Summer.
 
As and Marca today reporting that James will cost 50m euros. What's that in pounds about 41/42 Sterling? Not a bad price if you ask me.

Especially with the marketing Adidas reportedly have planned for him. Could work out a very good deal and will have a good sell on value as well. Even if he's a flop we will easily get that money back.
 
Not keen on James, but always happy to be proven wrong. Need a DM badly though

Every signing could potentially be a flop regardless of the fee. Especially a South American coming to the Premiership. No guarantee's with any signing.

Flop not sure if serious or not. He's been very good when given a run of games. Was voted best midfielder in Liga in 2015 I think it was. And gets double figures in goals and assist. I will take that flop!

What's your thoughts on Dier if we don't get Fabinho? I like personally very good DM for me. Good at winning the ball back his passing forward has improved a **** of a lot these last 2 years, and seems to know when to keep it simple. Only stumbling block is Levy?
 
How do people think we will get Dier? Why would he leave Spurs for another PL team? :/

Few reporters saying he's not happy at not being a guarenteed starter or shifting between CM and CB. Sam Wallace on Sunday Supp said he's herd from sources at the club and he's one they would let go for the right price.
 
But still.. having played 46 games and 3.928' minutes this season.. don't see why he'd want to leave unless it's cause as you say he wants to play only DM or only CB
 
Hope you're right, I wouldn't mind him at all! He's English, knows PL very well and it would be great buying one of Spurs better players just like in the old days! :D

Im sure we are interested as people that have or have good contacts have reported it. But the price and Levy will be a right pain. Want our business done early not the last day of the window.
 
M.Usta (Trabzonspor president): "We're focusing on signing a midfielder & striker. We're in talks with Fellaini, Natcho & Soldado."

Exactly. Won't be such a key figure next season imo. He has his uses in the squad. But if the price is right then not fussed if he goes. Yeah can't wait to see Periera and TFM get some mins next season. Both good enough for rotation and starting in cup games.

Dont have opinion on him but just had the impression from steve last post that its all good if big money is wasted on players not performing good. That u can sell them again.

I never said it was good. Obviously you want players to come in and do the job your buying them for. All I was saying is if for any reason it doesn't work out, we would easily get the £40m back, if not more, so its a good deal.
