I can see us ****ing with all of Spurs' targets if Levy tries to drag this out all summer.

Might as well, their wage bill is half of what ours is. Alderweireld, Walker, Vertonghan, Alli, Kane etc... must be on ridiculously low wages in comparison to other teams and given where they are finishing in the league, that's going to cause them future problems.
 
Spurs fan in my office is convinced this is already done as well, thinks we will pay £49m for him and he is quite happy about it
 
Levy knows that he won't be keeping hold of his golden generation if he doesn't start paying some serious wedge. Kane is now on 90k plus bonuses and he's their talisman. Alli, Rose, Dier and Walker can each get 120k plus bonuses elsewhere. Walker is about to show the way...
 
France football saying we will make a move for Serge Aurier if we can't agree a fee with Spurs.
 
Aurier is an interesting choice but there are plenty of issues with the player that needs to be sorted.
 
Is anyone else feeling slightly underwhelmed & unconvinced by both Walker & Mendy? Feels like we're going for physicality over technical ability with these two, interested to know other peoples' thoughts on that?

We really need some players who can hold their own and bully others,i'm not sure we need our fullbacks to be super technical

They are still two decent technical players though.

This for me is Guardiola adapting to the Premier League with him now knowing that whilst you need technical quality, you also need good athletes at fullback.

You are so wrong. We opt for speed and supreme crossing as the primary skills for our FB. Our wingers have speed and technical very gifted.

Physicality is hugely important, especially seeing as we have lost it in other areas such as our forwards and midfield. Also given how we now dominate possession, teams look to go long on the counter, particularly looking to win that first ball. Pace, strength and being good in the air are ideal traits to stifle that part of an opponents game plan, meaning less chances vs us and less goals conceded.

Can't say I'm aware of a long list of full backs who are much better.
I'll be happy if we get them but we have got neither so far.
