Didn't he play as a CB against Frankfurt last season and the league game after IIRC? I personally prefer him in that position, as he no longer has the pace to track running or the ability to be effective in the final third.

I thought he "loved the club"? If you aren't local, there isn't any loyalty.

I never said he should be deployed as a CB, I'm just alluding to the fact that he can play there - https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/marcos-alonso/profil/spieler/112515

He's actually trying to push for a move shortly after signing an extension. It obviously isn't going to happen, but he could kiss goodbye to a starting anytime soon. Azpi, Tomori & even Alonso. We aren't exactly short on options defensively.

I guess they are trying to balance the books after a few busy windows.

They supposedly have first refusal on Kean, so it's a decent chunk of money for someone that has shown very little thus far. Mandzukic/Lukaku deal could turn out to be an odd one, though.

I can't think of the last overseas signing that Spurs made which proved a success. Dybala will definitely have his moments, but I don't expect him to bag 20+ goals like he did in Italy.

He seemingly wants to go back to Germany after rejecting Marseille's interest.

I don't think it's ideal to go stupid in that regard and be left short at some point. DD, Baka, Zappacosta, Baba and potentially Tomori is sufficient.

It's good to have a left footed option. Also, I can't see the club getting rid of 4 players.

We need numbers and he can do a job. Seems wise tbh.

Pedro instead of Mount and I'd be OK with the line up. AC just ain't up to starting big games.

CHO could be gone before Willian retires at this rate.

I agree that there's no proof and rather a hunch on my part, regardless of how outlandish it might seem. Neither of us will probably ever get a definite answer on the matter.

I get it, you ain't fan. [emoji58] Check his career stats and get back to me.

This shouldn't even be debatable right now. He's a proven finisher

Lol! You do have a way with words

If Tammy's our PK taker, you might be wishing you didn't press reply. [emoji1]

At least we are level. Should have 4 or 5 on the balance of play.

Let's hope we are getting our poor finishing out of the way now.

Finally bags a goal

Tammy finally going to score?

We ought be to level by now

I'd like to think he's starting today out of necessity. Michy has done what a CF needs to during preseason.
