That's a decent deal IMO.

Good, hopefully Dier is next

 

[Spurslove]

A fantastic deal for all parties and I wish him well

Brilliant money but Toby gone, sad day. The last player of one of the Premierships best ever back 4’s.
Now for the next best defence

A good deal considering his age, but I’d still much rather Sanchez and Dier leave before him.

I thought he wanted to return to Belgium in order for his children to experience their schools, education and lifestyle?

That would be fair and bring our total defensive outgoings to £28m (Toby + Foyth). That's most of the money needed for Romero...who some still think we can only buy if we have Kane money.

I hope they too have their turn real soon to bid us all a fond farewell...

"Subject to personal terms".
I always take these articles with a pinch of salt anyway but, as you point out, personal terms could be a hitch.

I can only assume he's going to be on mega wages out there, so I'm sure his plans can wait another season or so.

I think he said by 2023. Maybe he's going to smash in one last big payday.

The club have agreed a deal. That doesn't mean Toby wants to go. I hope he's not being pushed out and it's something he really wants to do. He deserves a move that's really good for him. Good luck to him if it happens.
Hopefully it means Romero is coming

 

[Gassin's finest]

He's off to Qatar? Where did that come from?

Good move for all concerned.

Best of luck to him. He deserves a last payday

I’d completely forgotten about Foyth’s move being made permanent.

It came from a small enclave between Riyadh and Abu Dhabi.

It came from a small enclave between Riyadh and Abu Dhabi.

I’ve read a few times that Toby loves old American cartoons, Tom and Jerry, Top Cat, The Flintstomes amd so on. I think he should have gone to Abu Dhabi to be honest. All members of the United Arab Emirates are prohibited,by law, from broadcasting ‘The Flintstnes’ but Abu Dhabi do.
