    That's not to say any of this batch will not turn out well (like Rashford and Lingaard) but it's fair to say a batch came through last time and the majority didn't cut the mustard.
    None of them were remotely as highly regarded as Greenwood and Gomes.

    You'd have been better off including Januzaj, who people were well and truly wanking over.

    None of them are a patch on Andre Wisdom or Ben Woodburn.

    By you. I’ve only ever heard of Gomes through your posts. Greenwood has had some media hype, not as much as Adnan though

    Apparently Coutinho loan is on. Probably at the expense of Lo Celso and Bruno, as well as Eriksen.

    Yeah because who you've heard of is a good barometer of who is highly thought of in English youth teams

    We've allegedly signed a player called Ludwig Francillette. Excellent.

    If that happens, it means we're getting Eriksen.

    Massively over-rated. Can't do anything if you're not doing his running for him. He's just another Coutinho type.

    In other news, we're being linked with Rugani for 40 million euros after a 2 year loan. Never seen him play.

    Eriksen wants 'a new challenge'. I guess leaving Champions League finalists for Europa League bottlers would be a pretty lol challenge.

    He'll leave Spurs for someone in Europe after our window closes.

    All the Dybala and Coutinho rumours will be utter bullshit.

    Eriksen has decided he's ready to make the step up, that's all.

    I can't speak for Eriksen for lack of watching him, but Coutinho for all the bad feeling, is very good.

    He can get a little like that one kid at school who was better than everyone so tries to do it all himself. But he has the ability to pull a goal or a free kick out of very little. Everyone bar City would be a better team for having him in it.

    Surely Ozil is the prime example of that?

    I’m definitely willing to let Eriksen go, he contributes a lot of assists but he stymies our play and defines our attack in a way that has annoyed me a lot over the past couple years. We’ll miss him, but we need some changes to our attack and he makes the most sense to shift on. I hope United don’t get him though, I’ll be forced to wish him ill ever weekend which I don’t want

    I'm not sure how he fits into a Paulp Ogba-led midfield unless he takes a Luka Modric-like recycling role. He could do that, but will he? If it's one sensible midfielder in a free-for-all then it will be useless.

    Eriksen usually has one of the highest average distances run in the league. 2017/18 he was top. Spurs fans all say this is rubbish too.

    Eriksen is consistently one of the players who covered the most ground per game

    Edit: as above

    He's just aimlessly jogging around pretending to do things.

    It's Phonics on Spurs. Think Smiffy on United but more smug and somehow less substance.

    Eriksen's only weak point is set pieces. Which is odd because he started out as a free kick specialist.

    He hasn't beaten the first man from a corner in about 2 years.

    We've played 4-2-3-1 in most of the preseason games, with Pogba as one of the two further back where he plays for France. The other formation we've played is the 4-1-2-1-2 diamond Ole seems to like. In both cases Eriksen would play as the 10 I would imagine.

    Sky are running with Spurs agreeing £64m for Dybala.

    Eriksen surely off then.

    EDIT: Thinking about it, wouldn't Dybala be comfortably the best paid player at the club? Not very Spurs like if true.

    Or he's about to join, ergo he's the best player ever. It's always the same no matter what the player or the two clubs involved.

    Probably Juve trying to push Utd to stump up what Dybala wants so they can get rid of him. The reports have all come from the Italian side, nothing from the UK journalists.

    If Spurs sign someone on big wages then don't a number of players in the team get rises? I personally don't see him nor Coutinho leaving anywhere.

    James McCarthy and Cenk Tosun.

    Copy and pasted directly from SSN

    "Palace will not consider any offer less then north what Manchester United paid Leicester for Harry Maguire"

    Doesn't look like we're signing a midfielder which is a bit fucking disastrous.
