Lo Celso isn't as good as Eriksen and Ndombele IMO should be an improvement on Dembele so net evens out, but I suppose thats a pretty basic way of looking at it.
Still need funds for a RB, backup striker, & DM.
We shall see!
18/19 - Broken wantaway Dembele (left in Jan), Below par 'head turned' Eriksen
19/20 - 22yo hungry beast in Ndombele, 23yo hungry Lo Celso
I'd hope that would be more than evening out, but I do concede Eriksen is a world class player. That said Lo Celso ticks all the boxes whilst seeming to be more tenacious, and a better dribbler.
Sessegnon adds good squad depth and looks likely.
Maxi Gomez, Bergwijn and of course Bale look like decent attacking upgrades we are keeping tabs on.
RB is the weird one in that it's so quiet. I'd have thought we'd be in the conversation for Meunier considering the price and our history with PSG.
I think DM ends up being the one that falls by the wayside, but as important as the position is in the modern game, I think we can overcome it especially if we thicken the midfield and get a proper RB.
I have a feeling Toby may end up seeing his last year out saving us needing a new CB.

Obviously being Spurs it's a concern whether we can get it all done but we have had busy windows in the past too, especially when coinciding with a big sale.
