Rabiot has looked excellent this season to be fair to him. Finally looking like he’s making good on his potential. But we don’t need him in any way. Would be a very odd signing.
Starting to wonder if maybe Conte doesn't like Bissouma very much?Rabiot has looked excellent this season to be fair to him. Finally looking like he’s making good on his potential. But we don’t need him in any way. Would be a very odd signing.
Pretty sure Gary Jacob is the one who broke Bissouma. He’s no bullshitter.*Knocks on editors door*
“Boss, we’ve got a gap on page 68… shall I just Chuck in a stock Rabiot > Spurs story to fill it?”
“….is Leandro Damiao still a thing?”
“not anymore boss he retired in 1786”
“Yeah whack Rabiot on there, say something about his mum”
wasn't there stories he had major attitude problems after the last time we were rumored in for him?
I know mate, said in jest. Just appears to becoming one of those players we get linked to every window.Pretty sure Gary Jacob is the one who broke Bissouma. He’s no bullshitter.
It's just not a priority position to fill IMO. We have Bentancur who is class on the ball and Bissouma is very good on the ball also, we just haven't seen his Brighton form yet. Hojbjerg is decent enough on the ball also so we have 3 options there for 2 positions but I do agree we need to bring a 4th option in before next season.Alright, I’m in. We need more quality on the ball in midfield.
This. We urgently need new defenders. Dier, Davies, Sanchez and Tanganga are all below the quality needed for us to finish top 4 this season. RWB - we might as well be playing with 10 players sometimes.It's just not a priority position to fill IMO.

But defence is where we need significant investment. Udogie will more than likely come straight in at LWB but we need 2 x CBs and 1 x RWB. It is an absolute must that we bring 2 defenders in this Jan if we want to finish top 4.
It's frustrating because we have plenty of cash available to spend, it just depends which way the club want to go. We've been here so many times before, let's just pray this time we make the right decisions.
Exactly.This. We urgently need new defenders. Dier, Davies, Sanchez and Tanganga are all below the quality needed for us to finish top 4 this season. RWB - we might as well be playing with 10 players sometimes.
There are plenty of quality CBs out there right now, with Skrinniar, De Vrij and Ndicka all being on the last 6 months of their deals, to name but a few.
So getting in at least 1 quality CB and 1 quality RWB is a minimum for this window IMO. I would also say that we need a forward option too, as Son is very out of form and Deki has no cover / rotation. In fact we don't have proper cover for either Son or Deki, so we really need a wide player that can cover for at least one of them.
If we can get these 3 signings done in Jan then we're in a good spot and have enough to finish top 4 again IMO. The rest of the work can then be done in the summer.
This is plain to see really. Without an upgrade at the back we haven't got a hope of top 4. In Jan we need to get a good option in the central role then for 4th there might be enough providing Romero and Lenglet stay fit alongside them.It's just not a priority position to fill IMO.
