Wonder if they tried for Rafa. He'd do better than Gattuso for them. Strange club. Feels like Poch will return next year when he's sacked at PSG for not winning the treble.

While I agree we should ideally pair Maguire with CB with pace, wtf is this video
The thoughts that someone actually went and spent time picking out these clips and added in a load of pointless arrows and circles as if it shows anything of value
Barely a week and Paratici already showing his magic
He (the agent) said it was complete bullshit,” Zwartkruis told Voetbal International.
“There has been a conversation with the trainer about next season.
“He just has to get fit quickly so that on day one, he is the strong Van de Beek they bought at the time.”
Yeah I hear ya, maybe they're going big on him and hoping Welbeck will stay fit to play off of?
If they get big money for White then they might well get someone else in too. But yeah, doubt Tammy would go there.
If only. Yeah, 'cos footballers never say exaggerated niceties when talking about former colleagues! Maguire has been at the club for two years - you don't need anyone to tell you whether or not he has explosive pace.Not my words....words of someone who played with Harry Maguire for a number of years.
I know whose judgement i would trust!
Unbeaten at Fiorentina tbf to Levy.
Reports are it was mutually terminated as Mendes was trying to push players on the club and they weren't having it.
So was that why Gattuso walked from Fiorentina? Cos he knew he had an offer from Spurs and would prefer the Spurs job?
Alex Cordaz has signed, Soon he will be officially a new Inter player.
It's probably a good thing for Spurs because he's a terrible manager.
That being said what a complete shambles, it's taken months to appoint a manager and the one shitter they chose brakes down.
Spurs
Good stuff. So Mendes will be getting his claws into Spurs & working to get the Wolves players in. Should be interesting. Wonder how long Paratici lasts.
There is no guarantee that Rudiger returns to Chelsea next season as he only has 1 year left on his deal and Chelsea could bite the bullet him on while his stock as high as it's ever been, so we could potentially be on the lookout for another CB but I don't think Chelsea want to have two older players on short term contracts. He's going to you lot or PSG I think.
Looks like Man City. The other aspect with two older CB is games lost to minor injuries. You know they will happen. Manageable with one, but probably not with two.
Lots of noise around him going to City. Think that's the most likely destination. I'd definitely take him at United, even at 35 - we could do with a leader like him.
I know that GB already answered that he's not ready for us, and he's right. I thought I'd elaborate a bit more on how his Derby spell went.
At the start, he wasn't really getting into the first team since Derby were in a relegation battle. Rooney was only playing Mengi against teams with more physical forwards, and he passed those tests. As he was starting to get more appearances, he got injured, and his season ended.
At this rate, I don't think he's ready for United, either. He should go out on another loan spell.
Sport Witness are the source!
He'd be great to watch in the Premier League. His teams tend to play entertaining attacking football.
EDIT: More info
- Burnley's Sean Dyche is also an option for Crystal Palace despite his sizable compensation
- Palace chairman Steve Parish announces that the club will listen to offers for Wilfried Zaha.

You're entitled to think the way you do,

However when evidence suggests that to not be the case from multiple sources it just feel a bit of a weak arguement.
Anhyhow, back to the transfers, or lack of them....
From Conte to Fonseca to... Gattuso.
Spurs have lost the plot. Also, the same Gattuso who just walked out on Fiorentina after 22 days because they wouldn't buy him the players he wanted? I'm sure he'll love Levy, then.

I’m well aware of our transfer system, as you have said, it’s well-publicised and very clear. However, that’s also what the club wants everyone to know. Is it a true representation of how our transfer system works? I’ve no idea.
Pep plays a different system altogether. City usually dominate possession as well in most of their games, although they are susceptible to the counter. This season their fullbacks, instead of overlapping on the flanks, have come into midfield alongside Rodri/Fernandinho who is City’s deepest midfielder. So there is this line of 2 fullbacks and 1 DM before the 2 CBs - this has contributed to them conceding less goals this season and also enabled them to win the ball back far quicker.
Perhaps I should be more specific, Maguire isn’t suitable for the high line that Ole plays.
I’m okay with giving VdB one more season. Of course it takes two hands to clap, Donny hasn’t taken his chances well enough. However, Ole doesn’t seem to know how best to use Donny or which midfield role to use him in. Granted, we had no pre-season.
That’s why I question the club’s decision to pursue a CB this window. I think a DM is fair more important in shielding our defence and also allowing the attacking players more freedom. I’m also tired of watching McFred. They are decent players but I don’t think they complement each other and therefore shouldn’t play together.
Spurs should take him
Todibo was on loan from Barcelona to Nice.
Absolute mayhem!
Wouldn't Favre be more suitable for Spurs ?
Maybe Levy doesn't know he's a free agent.
