Should be interesting to see how Tottenham plays out this season with the current group of players. With Dier and Wanyama, Dembele could be pushed up to play that CAM role if necessary, while N'Koudou will be competing with Son as the second-choice winger. Onomah doesn't look ready for Premier League, but he looks like Pochettino's little project for this season.
Sky and the Guardian giving out conflicting infos. Told reports that Tottenham have ended their interest in Wilfried Zaha may be premature... #cpfc #thfc— Ed Aarons (@ed_aarons) August 30, 2016
There's a lot of pieces and clearly Pochettino is trying to build a bit more variety to his attack than last season. Not sold on it so far, though but its early to be judging experiments like Kane and Janssen on together. That said, there's clearly now an attempt at depth where there was so little last season quickly dropping into Mason/Carroll/Chadli caliber players. And even if a tier down the depth chart, Son isn't really far from being needed, esp for CL.
Yeah that's a good point. If Tottenham were buying him from Leverkusen this summer (assuming he replicated his 14/15 season) he would probably cost more than he did. I know the Isco rumor is a moonshot but man I hope Levy can pull it off. Son has always thrived with a solid creative force like VdV at HSV, or even Castro at Bayer.
you guys think he really did agree to personal terms? does that come off as him expressing desire to leave?
It's possible. Son have had plenty of chances to quash his transfer rumours if it wasn't true. He certainly doesn't come off as a player who is determined to stay at Tottenham for sure though.

isco became a more well-rounded midfielder when i saw him last season. he'd be loads better than zaha imo, although zaha has the PL experience and requires less acclimation.
Tottenham has offered €45M to buy Meyer from Schalke, which would smash their transfer record. Moussa Sissoko's transfer to Tottenham is almost certain as he has left the French NT camp today ahead of the international friendlies.
All of them won't happen, and I'm not convinced we've gone that hard in for Meyer. The price seems way too high for Spurs, who aren't the ones to throwing the most money around. Agents and media are working overtime as well today, not everything can be taken for truth. Bid for Zaha was low ball, same could be said for Sissoko I guess allthough Newcastle's initial fee request is atrocious. Sissoko - Dembele - Wanyama - Dier Lamela - Son - Dele - Isco - Eriksen - N'Koudou Kane - Janssen Would be a sick depth in squad that I'd be extremely happy with. Could do anything with that strenght.
Breaking | Chelsea have entered into negotiations to sign Moussa Sissoko from Newcastle United, according to L'Équipe. More to come.— Get French Football News (@GFFN) August 31, 2016
Allofs reiterates Son wanted to go. Not sure how much is agent trying to generate interest for Son, Son himself wanting to go now or wanting to pick a place only in circumstance of being sold But Levy didn't want to sell http://m.sportbild.bild.de/bundesli...r-son-draxler-dante-47600966.sportMobile.html
Finally, we are delighted to announce the signing of @gknkoudou from Marseille. #NkoudouSigns pic.twitter.com/XZ92CIGU2V— Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) August 31, 2016
Why is Pochettino signing all these attackers but yet won't let Son go? Seems counter-intuitive to me
rolling out carroll and mason and chadli aint gonna cut it there. also nkoudou is a one-for-one replacement for Clinton.
