Bentancur and Kulusevski were kind of different in that they're young players who never really got going at their club. Lenglet had an ok first season, then a good season, and then turned into a liability.
I see what you're saying - there's good reason to think he'll come good. But there's also a good reason it's a loan with option to buy.
He's not 6'4" for starters

Yes there is, but Conte is no fool and him and Paratici obviously think this is a loan move worth doing.
I don't rink any rival fans are unhappy spurs have signed him. Excellent, in fact exceptional passers-by if the ball....just cannot defend. So he will be a good replacement for dier, sanchez, rodden or any of the other spurs CBs that cannot defend

Did you see who Conte spent 200m on at Chelsea? This whole idea Conte is a master in the market is a total myth. He signed lots of, not just bad players, but awful signings. Excellent coach. Picking players to sign not so much.

Yeah we can't lose really. If he's a bit rubbish we've got Davies and we just send him back and go for the expensive option next summer. I'm sure I read the buy option is 8m or so.. so if he's good we've got a bargain.

Because he’s sheite.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cannot say I know anything about him Ace, so will judge him when I see him play.
If Lenglet is in the French National squad, he can't be too bad, despite France's recent run of results.
I do not remember if he played, and how he played, in those games.
One thing's for sure,...our defense needs upgrade.
Let’s judge him after we’ve seen him play a few games for us.

Its an interesting balance to be reached because Davies has been very good at LCB, committed, throwing himself at shots and making some great blocks. He's also a real committed competitor.
However, we lack on the left the quality ball playing we see coming from the right side and Romero.
Lenglet will inevitably improve the playing out on this side but will he have the same defensive solidity and commitment as Davies?
At least it's a loan and we're not spuffing 10s of millions at this stage.

Conte has only been in charge for 28 league games. The last half of that, after our Burnley defeat, coincided with the new signings settling in, the team better delivering what Conte was instructing them to do, and the return of Romero.
No one is saying that we will challenge for the league, although our form in that time was within 1-3 points of that of Liverpool and Man City, just that it was clear that Spurs were starting to understand what Conte wanted and started to deliver. P14 W10 D2 L2 F38 A8
14 games is a decent sample size, and weve added depth to that which should help our chances of maintaining these sorts of levels.

100 per cent correct. Spurs are being as usual dismissed far to easily. The last third of the season was as strong as any team in the Prem. With a full Conte season and new players bedded in, I think the season looks very promising for Spurs.

Yeah, i dont see a title challenge but I do think we'll see more sustained good results, with less Saints/Wolves/BHA blips. Fully expect us to be in the mix with Chelsea. Arsenal have bought well so they will probably be there or thereabouts. United are a mess and ended 14 points behind us. If we improve then they will have to improve massively to close that gap and right now they dont look like they have the quality to do that.
We've average 2pts a game under Conte, despite all the upheaval, squad issues, no pre-season or summer window. I think we can expect 2 pts a game minimum really given the improvements.

Agree with your assessment other than about Arsenal having a good season. They have spent a lot of money, but they really don`t have a strong team, lots of expensive players, but how many real match winners? They have purchased Jesus, but is he really going to score 25 goals a season? Other than that where are their attacking threats? Their defence looks pretty weak as well.
Lenglet will be a disaster if we go 2 at the back - which we won’t. 3 at the back he will be superb, he is unbelievably good on the ball for a defender and his short comings are easier to cover in a 3.
Conte will be training him to within an inch of his life this summer to understand the system - where to be at all times.
If it doesn’t work - we’ve lost no money and have cover.
The more important signing is the other CB we bring in - get that right and we will be surprising a few on this board, we’re brewing something tasty

Do Liverpool sign players based on whether their rival fans are unhappy or not?
Any defender who is a ball playing one, is an instant improvement on Davies, imo

Bentancur and Kulusevski were kind of different in that they're young players who never really got going at their club. Lenglet had an ok first season, then a good season, and then turned into a liability.

Arsenal have bought well so they will probably be there or thereabouts. United are a mess and ended 14 points behind us. If we improve then they will have to improve massively to close that gap and right now they dont look like they have the quality to do that.
We've average 2pts a game under Conte, despite all the upheaval, squad issues, no pre-season or summer window. I think we can expect 2 pts a game minimum really given the improvements.

Agree with your assessment other than about Arsenal having a good season. They have spent a lot of money, but they really don`t have a strong team, lots of expensive players, but how many real match winners? They have purchased Jesus, but is he really going to score 25 goals a season? Other than that where are their attacking threats? Their defence looks pretty weak as well.

Lenglet will be a disaster if we go 2 at the back - which we won’t. 3 at the back he will be superb, he is unbelievably good on the ball for a defender and his short comings are easier to cover in a 3.
Conte will be training him to within an inch of his life this summer to understand the system - where to be at all times.
If it doesn’t work - we’ve lost no money and have cover.
The more important signing is the other CB we bring in - get that right and we will be surprising a few on this board, we’re brewing something tasty

I don't rink any rival fans are unhappy spurs have signed him. Excellent, in fact exceptional passers-by if the ball....just cannot defend. So he will be a good replacement for dier, sanchez, rodden or any of the other spurs CBs that cannot defend

Do Liverpool sign players based on whether their rival fans are unhappy or not?

Any defender who is a ball playing one, is an instant improvement on Davies, imo
