I can't see avb leaving to go to France. They are no different to chelski, trying to buy there branded names to win things. He would not last long there as he never did at the chavs. He must know home is where the lane is. On the flip side if he goes does that mean he knows levys plans I. e bale gets sold and average talent again gets bought by levy

Why didn't we go for Lovren of Lyon who has just signed for Southampton?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Because he's not an improvement on Vert or Daws

Agree0 Disagree0

4 defenders are enough for Tottenham. Do we need a defender?. No.

Gabriel.

Agree0 Disagree0

Then what do we do for a sub when we have an injury and a suspension at the same time? 5 defenders please

RY

Agree0 Disagree0

We play our 2 centre backs! We spent most of last season with no forward on the bench

Agree0 Disagree0

We'll agree to disagree. I'm not a gambler, especially considering defenders have the highest combined injury/suspension risk associated of any position. We let in too many goals this season and having to resort to a youth or out-of-position cb next season during a crisis would keep us out of the CL again.

RY

Agree0 Disagree0

Would rather spend money on a 1st choice centre forward than a fifth choice centre back

Agree0 Disagree0

Just buy a fullback who can play cb or vice versa. problem solved, Martins Indi CB+Lb or Caceres RB, CB + LB, In fact if it was me I'd sell Naughton + BAE & maybe Dawson if right offer came in, That would leave 5cb+ 4fb but only taking up 7 squad places, if Dawson stays u have 6cb with 8 squad places, either scinario leaves plenty plenty of game time to keep players happy

I actually think Daws should stay. as a squad player. stays reasonably injury free and always gives 110%. And there are some teams he is suited to play against. Verts and Kaboul would be my starting pair. but I worry about Kabouls injury and how it may affect him this coming season. Leaving Caulker on the bench and Daws as a capable backup.

Agree0 Disagree0

Anyone who thinks Dawson is better than Lovren is deluded. Fifth choice! Lol You know nothing, Lovren is much better than Daws, Caulker and whoever else you are including in your five.

Agree0 Disagree0

Calm down mr u know know nothing, I think the posts r generally saying other areas of the team need improving before we buy centre backs. Not that lovren isn't good enough.

Agree0 Disagree0

I never said 5th choice CB. I said a fifth cb. wouldn't we all prefer a new first choice defender. but you know we have other priorities.

Lovren may be better than all our defenders, I don't know, but what some of us believe is that if we use up funds on non-essential personnel we may lose out on priority targets. If lovren was available after our important purchases this would be a different conversation. Its all about priorities mate

RY

Agree0 Disagree0

Ry, I know Kaboul was out all season but unless we address our defence we will always leak goals, more than the other top four teams.

Agree0 Disagree0

will be furious if we sell to Manchester United we have made that mistake before carrick berbatoss, if we sell to another prem side levy will be freely admitting we are nothing but a mid table side with little or no ambition keep bale at all cost and avb for that matter if we are to achieve cl we need both of these to stay at the lane but if we do sell and can't see us not if it is 80mill plus that comes knocking its overseas or nothing and put a buy back clause in it and keep him out of other prems clubs mitts if he is home sick come on levy sort it now, I agree with someone elses post aswell it may take both bale and avb to come out publicly and say that they are committed to the cause coys forever

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Bale doesn't want to leave.

Agree0 Disagree0

They would rather have Ronaldo back than bale and for the price mentioned, they would get Ronaldo.
