No way Dier is going unfortunately

posted on 24/7/21

Him leaving this summer was always on the cards, although I thought he would play in Belgium/Holland to be closer to home.

I presume he has been offered huge money in Qatar, so why not take one last huge pay day.

As for us, we are very likely to sign Romero plus Kounde/Lacroix/Anderson/Vestergaard. We also have Rodon and Tanganga.

Sanchez will be gone this summer. Fingers crossed that Dier won’t be playing CB anymore also.

Only 32 and your best defender. You'd have thought you'd get rid of the rubbish ones but I guess no one wants them.

I think we’re getting rid of all of Dier, Toby and Sanchez. Seville are very keen on Sanchez and willing to sell Kounde. We have Romero coming in as well most likely.

Who's in for Dier?

So much going on but it does worry me all our CB targets have no prem experience. If Dier somehow manages to be here at the end of the window and Toby is gone that's a huge negative.

Surely Dier is for sale too?

#thfc signing Cristiano Romero is expected to kick start a transfer merry go round, resulting in Atalanta signing Merih Demiral whilst enabling Manuel Locatelli to join Juventus. [Tuttosport]

More hopeful on my part, either way he won’t be starting at CB if we land the targets. If winks and Sissoko go then maybe he moves back to CM where he is at least competent and could be a Hojbjerg rotation option.

So Atalanta buy Romero and sell him on for a profit to Spurs and replace him with another Juventus defender and Juventus can finally buy an Arsenal target.

In a round about way you're improving yourself and stopping your rival from improving.

Yeah a win win. If we are able to complete the Sanchez plus cash for Kounde deal as well then we will suddenly have a decent defence. With Tomiyasu coming in aswell that’s the right side sorted. Keep Kane 1 more year and add Ings (last year of contract) for relatively little and we could be a tough nut to crack again

posted on 24/7/21

Tomiyasu injured his ankle the other day. Either the transfer is off or we get him for a cheaper fee hopefully. Depends how bad the injury is I guess.

Toby has been a great servant, but is now past his peak and £13m is the last chance to get some kind of decent fee for him.

Wish him all the best, but it is time to replace him with younger. It would be a good move for all parties, Toby gets one last pay day and Spurs get £13m into the coffers an his wages off the wage bill.

I think Dier will stay, but hopefully we can replace Sanchez also, giving us potential CB options of:

Rodon
Tanganga
Dier
Romero
Tomiyasu
Davies
New CB

posted on 24/7/21

Toby may be past his peak but he is still a good defender and has at least 2 more years at the top level.

posted on 24/7/21

Toby has been a great servant and been one of my fav defenders at our club in recent years but watching him at the recent Euros just showed how spent he was. Reluctant to commit and face any sort of pace, the hoofing when pressed, average ball distribution etc
Loved Toby and Vertonghen at their peak but we really need to move on.
If true then £13 mill is a good bit of business as long as it’s invested wisely. Let’s see.

He is, and we’ve wasted him the last 2 years, but he is starting to get really slow.

I also think he is very replaceable, therefore £13m seems reasonable in this market and hopefully we land Kounde as well as Romero, that will give us a very strong defence.

Apparently he will be available for Japan`s next game, so does not look bad.

Not surprised since Toby, Dier and Sanchez were put up for sale, they’ve been poor for 2 seasons and need to be moved on.

Good to hear

Are we happy going into the new season with Rodon and Tanganga as our only experienced prem defenders?

Assuming Toby, Dier and Sanchez is off. Dier surely is on the chopping block too.

No way. Hence why we are buying this Romero

That's my point Don. He has zero prem experience.

Anderson who we have been linked to does but just saw he has been linked with Palace.
