He hasn't kicked on from then. He still shows good ability on the ball, but defensively, he hasn't changed. He's aggressive in his challenges and prefers to defend on the front foot, but he also tends to ball-watch when he's in his position.
Translation:
- Villa interested in Barkley on loan with Loftus-Cheek as an alternative
- Chelsea want loanees to pay the full 120k Pounds/week salary
- Villa reluctant to pay
- Dean Smith hopes for more incoming players
- Villa looking to trim their squad; players no longer in their plans:
- Mbwana Samatta (linked to a loan spell at Fenerbahce)
- Henri Lansbury
- Frederic Guilbert
- Bjorn Engels
- Orjan Nyland
- Lovre Kalinic
Fiorentina eye up River Plate's Lucas Martinez Quarta if either Milenkovic or Pezzella leave. Federico Fazio is set to stay at Roma.
Yeah, that was my point, unlike Mata, McTominay’s was unrealistically low.
And Salah...
Sabiri was a decent player for Paderborn last season. He'll be one to keep an eye out for.
Fulham with another decent signing:
EDIT: They will pay ~15 million Euros. Barcelona were informed of the purchase but decided not to buy Marlon back.

Its kinda interesting that it seems like rumors if us being linked have virtually dried up all of the sudden. Maybe the journos have come to realize that linking us with anyone makes one lose credibility.
Foreign journalists have stopped linking us around for sure (for the most part), but the crappy English newspapers (Sun, Express, Mail, etc.) won't stop. Then there are Duncan Castles and Ian McGarry who tend to throw some weird links here and there.
Barcelona confirm Luis Suarez's departure.
EDIT: Barcelona confirm Luis Suarez's departure to Atletico Madrid. The deal includes 6 million Euros in variable payments to Barcelona.

Another sale on the horizon for Real Madrid?
6 years ago, whilst having a prime World class De Gea as our number 1. Romero was also 2nd choice at his previous club I believe so there’s no justification for that salary being given if it’s true.
It's not that baffling. Spurs have the 8th largest income in world football, have a low wage bill and make big profits.
Plus our global profile has been rising for some while now - witness the Amazon series, publicity surrounding the new stadium etc - and so commercial sponsorships of various types are on the increase. Bale's return only adds to this.
They're hoping Amazon will buy the stadium rights which is very likely.
How long before they host the US open on Spurs retractable pitch
Wales, Spurs, Golf, Real Madrid.

Massive waste of money that would have been
Of course you'd post a Tweet from a BS source.
You’ve just taken a £175m loan of Public money, you mean.
We clearly think Shaw is our number 1 choice but don't trust Williams at LB because of his right foot. So we're looking to sign someone cheap as cover/to challenge Shaw. No way are we gonna pay a massive fee for a Chilwell or Digne
Glaston, mate, I know you're a WUM, but bear with me here. I wasn't questioning Spurs' finances or ability to spend generally, but rather questioning the spending this summer in particular. Without any intent to belittle your club, I was genuinely curious as to how your owners could spend close to a 1bn GBP on a new stadium, suffer (and continue to suffer) the financial losses of the pandemic, and still spend the kind of money that you have (especially considering Jose wants two more signings). I am fully aware of Spurs' increased financial pulling power, but no club was spared by the pandemic and it's been a bit weird to see the Levy's typically tight-stringed purse open in such hard financial times. As others have explained, though, it seems you guys took out a coronavirus relief loan from the gov't (which would explain how you've covered this summer's spending) and may be banking on Amazon (or another such company) to buy stadium naming rights, which would obviously represent a big infusion of cash.
That's in relation to the Covid-19 absence of fans - and associated loss of income - from match-days. It's a loss that all clubs face and which all clubs will have to absorb/cover one way or another.
That makes sense - I hadn't considered them auctioning off their stadium naming rights. "Welcome to Amazon Field" has a very Spursy ring to it.
This is all fair enough. But I would make two additional observations. First, Spurs will likely sell and/or loan out a few players before the window closes, which will offset spending to some extent. Second, Levy would not spend based on hoped-for future income. If he spends a lot now (and it remains to be seen how much in net terms this will end up being) I'd reckon it's because there are one or two new commercial deals already signed and sealed, but not yet announced for fear of driving up asking prices.
That all sounds reasonable to me.
Someone find again Oles interview on that. I'll look.
Wasn't Anderson here for like 9 years also?
Well except it is a good one, just you seem to not be aware of how it works.
Sold a dream
come on they are well paid professional footballers not just been duped into a timeshare.Anderson famously used to play himself into new deals. He'd have these random bursts of form, where we all went "well he's only young" and think there might be a player in there. There was just no justification for Rojo and Jones contracts. They arent even water carriers.
