Bring the Goat back... If you feed him then he will score.
Theoretically that makes sense but if the reports of him preferring a wide berth are true, then we are even more overstocked in those positions. A season of tempting crosses awaits and, as yet, perhaps nobody to profit from them.The only option I can see is that we tell Jesus to forget about playing on the wing and he now is our number 1 striker
Torres not good enough, Delap not ready, False 9 won't work again its been sussed
I do think it was a mistake not getting him from PSG,but then again we dont have money to throw around like confetti and mercenaries are so 2009.....Rags don’t need Cavani anymore. I’d honestly take him for a season
I was thinking that, but Haalands options next summer do seem to be narrowing.Absolutely no way will we be signing Haaland next season, he and his agents know what they are doing to maximise the profits for them and that low release clause will make him earn much more than KDB + a monster agent fee, we won't be involved in that.

I’d say so, but can come up with reasons to count all 3 out as well.Bayern, PSG and Real will be in for him.

Bayern same as us wages and agent fees
Real, think they may try for Pogba on a free can they pay mega wages for Mbappe, Pogba and Haaland, but they seem to find it.
PSG , not convinced he sees France as a destination.
All guesswork ,but this is a deal that will be sewn up and agreed in early spring so we would know well before the window opens next summer.
All you are saying is true, we should be favorites to sign him. Especially when you consider we are the only club from the best league in the world, and a team his father played in and he supported growing up. With that said, Im sure Txiki would find a way to f*ck it up anyway.I’d say so, but can come up with reasons to count all 3 out as well.

Not so sure, but then didn’t think we’d go for Kane this summer before it started either.We’ll go back in for Kane next summer.
No reason we should be favourites,his history has little bearing on his football ambition, otherwise Leeds would be in there you seem obsessed with blaming Txiki everywhere , maybe if you and many others actually understood our transfer set up you’d stop.All you are saying is true, we should be favorites to sign him.

How has it been sussed? We won the league by 12 points and got to the CL final for the first time by deploying that fairly often.The only option I can see is that we tell Jesus to forget about playing on the wing and he now is our number 1 striker

Its been sussed because more and more in the second half of the season and so far this season at Spurs, its been inneffectiveHow has it been sussed? We won the league by 12 points and got to the CL final for the first time by deploying that fairly often.
After one season of having a striker do people say “we can’t play a striker anymore because he’s been sussed”?
We didn’t play a false 9 against Spurs nor Norwich. Torres played as a striker in both games.Its been sussed because more and more in the second half of the season and so far this season at Spurs, its been inneffective
It may work against your Norwich's etc but we need that top striker against the best teams to give us an edge
