It's the exact same points being mentioned again too. All pace. Just a transition player. His fbref passing is poor. Too expensive. Not good enough for where we need to get to etc. If he joins we'll soon see.

Well, so Murphy is better based on data but, slower. My main concern is that we pay upwards of 50M and bench him in favour of Murphy. He spent a chunk of time on Forest’s bench last season. He doesn’t appear very disciplined or that good technically. 🤷‍♂️

Still think this one has a long way to run, with our limited budget and other needs, I can’t see us paying 50 million.

Another thing, we’re in fairly desperate need of someone who can take a free kick and Elanga put in some great ones last season.

Exactly. The same people twisting about Elanga will be the same people who cried about the Gordon signing only to then a year later be singing his praises whilst pretending they never said a bad word about him. Trust the manager. He's earned it.

They’ll need play offs IMO, and unless Kean is fit and in form, no side should fear them because there’s just nothing in their attack. Then with all 3-5-2 / 3-4-3, if there’s no attack, you can pin them back easily.

If were launching £50M at Eleange type players we must have more to spend than I thought

"There's three ways to do things - the right way, the wrong way and the Anthony Elanga way" "Isn't that just the wrong way?" "Yes, but faster"

Echo the sentiments re Howe. He and his team have turned worse players than Elanga into fantastic players. Imagine they will have the lad tearing it up by Jan.

Reminds me of a quicker version of Murphy, without the defensive awareness.

Ooooooft!

Marseille must be paying Megabucks. Either that or PL clubs saw the wage demands and passed.

Vurnon Anita vibes. Think he’s suited to the league he’s in.

If Howe wants him then I’m fine with that. I sort of trust the bloke who has taken us from 19th to the Champions League (twice), and won us our first cup since dinosaurs walked the planet.

Quite a few mentioned him as a free transfer target for us

Shame, clearly the right decision for Spurs but like others I was really hoping they would "Do a Man U" keep him on, let him buy a couple of overpriced players overly suited to a particular system then bin him off midseason. I would have given us 2 transfer windows and a season to put them further in our rearview mirror.

For me - I have that much faith in Barnes we could sell Gordon for me if it boosted our cash to spend in other areas. I do like Elange though, seems to have the right attitude and hard working and a great season last year.

Doing a bit of work for Man City recently and got some ITK transfer stuff that all happened/is happening. Kind of helped that the work was related to incoming players. Of course I wouldn't risk my job to post that shit on the internet though like some loon

I am, I’m just more concerned it leaves us struggling to do enough business for the rest of the window. As ever though can’t judge it until it’s done.

Ajax away sounds fun

Just makes you realise what you’re up against. Imagine Barca away, followed by a PSG revenge mission at home, then we’re off to Juventus. Hope we’re not going to be expected to compete at this level with three quarters of a suitable squad (again).

More likely gonna go to cover Casemiros salary for 3 months

I’m perfectly comfortable signing the lad if Howe wants him - Howe’s record on signings is as good as anyone in football

NUFC saving the dinner ladies and cleaning staff of Man Utd.

That would be a great draw, but I’d swap the first three teams out - we’ve played Barcelona, PSG and Juve before. Whack Bayern, Real & Atletico in there and jobs a good’un
