Not sure about this. Was still the best defender at the club.

How is Eric Dier going to survive this cull?

My thoughts too! Plenty of time for a club to come in for him I guess.

Looking a mess at the back at the moment, beding in new players in a team and Premier league will take most of the season, if indeed any do come in, it's very messy but hope someone has a plan

This is the painful rebuild Dave.

Sad to see him go but we need faster defenders, could tell he had lost some pace, good luck in Qatar.

You only need one two fast defenders. Look at Italy's CB's who won the Euro's. Tiago won the CL with Chelsea.Godin was never blessed with pace.

Pace is a myth for defenders. It's having it up there which counts and experience in defence wins over pace every day.

I mean Sanchez has pace

Qatar? Players protest the WC being held there, but have no issues signing a deal with a new club there.

Toby hasn't protested it being held there so not really sure what your point is

To be fair we were actually quite forward thinking in getting Sanchez in and slowly bringing him through. Sadly he got worse after a promising start and now needs moving on.

Classic sanctimonious keyboard warrior on his moral high horse. Pathetic.

Still can't belive Eric Dioreha and Crapinson Sanchez are still with us.

This means at least 1 new CB is coming in, working on a one out and one in basis.

Hopefully we see Lolrier, Lolchez and Lolloko departing soon also, though the lack of rumours surrounding these 3 clowns leaving is a worry.

Sanchez is wanted by Seville and could be involved in a potential swap for Jules Kunde. Other clubs are rumoured to be in for him too. Agreed about the other two not mention Eric Diet.

You’re mentioning world class defenders there, they’re on a different level to Toby.

Fair enough but my point still stands. Pace is not a fundamental requirement for a solid defender. Having a football IQ is just as important. I don't remember too many times Toby was skinned for pace and it ended up as a goal against us.

That whole Toby has lost pace argument is wafer thin.

Never mind anyway. Best of luck to him and I hope we buy adequate replacement(s).

Great player for us, he and Jan made the best Centre back pairing of my lifetime.

He could still have played for a couple of years for us but I think this is more about him getting another payday before returning back to Belgium to end his career.

sidenote: one of the most annoying things in football is when people call 32 year olds 'over the hill' or 'old warhorse'

Like Sanchez?

Great defender but his lack of leadership really showed after Jan left. That experience just becomes old age if you can't help young players through games. Thanks n that but it's a good move for all concerned I think.

Let's be honest. Jan was hardly a great leader either. The whole squad lacks leaders. You have bluffers like Eric Dier pointing here, there and everywhere after Jan left. Kane has speech problems and Lloris seems frigid.

The only real leader for me in the squad is PEH.

You kidding me on? Anyway. Whatever you think of the rest of them it's pretty obvious Toby cant convey his experience to those around him. If he could make those around him better he'd be a lot more valuable

Aww that's nice
