Wasn't Hazard great to watch at the WC - looked to be enjoying himself. Hazard is a great player at his prime. He's definitely going to try to switch to Madrid this summer.

A midfielder to replace Dembele and a backup striker as that role has not yet been effectively filled. Mbappe would be nice if we have any change left over.

We know they will never play for City, so you can bask in a second hand reflected glory when they end up somewhere else, e.g. Trippier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specially If dembele leaves someone to run at c defences and take chances against packed defences is an.area we will need to strengthen, wilsherish admirably but rather stupidly went in were he shouldnt have hence so many injuries.. grealish same but not quite so careles me .. i'de sneek in and maybe while theres manegerial upset ..try 4 loftus cheek..power touch, quick enuf feet a touch of pace enuf 2 go past defenders he gets his finishing 'right' could be a class act.

I was only trying to get in a bit of dialogue with Ronnie to find out what positions Spurs were looking to strengthen but apparently they only need to buy if someone leaves. Trippier was coming through at City just around the time we were competing to be Premier champions in 2010 to 2012 and ahead of him were Richards and Zabeleta, he wasn't the player then he is now, wasn’t likely to break through, so the decision was made to sell on.

Like anyone we crave more quality all over the park. Finding that without spending huge money is not easy so you'll find we have to scout around a lot more than the money is no object clubs. We already have a very good team so options to buy are somewhat limited. Hope that satisfies your curiosity. Croatia win please....big bucks riding on this one!

Bernado is also lined up to replace him but if Foden progresses as we hope he could do the job. Very tricky and a good passer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
