Continuing the discussion from The Unreliable Transfer Rumours Discussion Thread (Part 4) - #4047 by Limiescouse.
Previous discussions:
What a time to be aliveā¦first in the new thread, but its a world cup, and our managers not even started yet.
Meanwhile, Spurs strong activity early this window is somewhat startlingā¦two years relegation scrapping, but still able to brng in Van Hecke (tbc), Senesi, and Robbo into their defenceā¦significantly improves them.
I know Iām impatient, but those are two CBs id takeā¦and over Van de Ven as an option.
We have been linked to Basaksehirās Abbosbek Fayzullaevā¦22 Uzbek who plays in Turkey.

Seems like PSGās winger Bradley Barcola handed in a transfer request.
Dunno if itās true but if it is should Liverpool be interested in Barcola?

The transfer window is the only thing they have a chance of winning.
Sensei and Robbo would be squad players for us at best. Both have their best days behind them and are short term gap pluggers. Van Hecke is a decent defender but is he replacing one of Romero or van de Ven who both seem very open to leaving?
Not seeing huge improvements there, just a couple freebies and a decent CB, albeit an overpriced one given he only had a year left.
Romero seemed to be a red card in waiting so I wouldnāt be surprised to see him moved on. Hopefully with signings like Van Hecke and Senesi we see a less thuggish Spurs next season.
Iād love Barcola, his style is very attractive and still has all his best years ahead of him.
Heād be my #1 pick for the wide forwards out there.
Even got the dress sense too.

Given the make up of our CBs, Iād not be opposed to a short term stop gap type. Senesi is 29, has PL experience, and from what Iāve seen, more than competent. Van Hecke I like, albeit I agree the price is a touch high for a player with one year left on his deal.
Donāt really want to see us go into the new season with our CB options as Virgil, Gomez, Jacquet, and Leoni. We could do with a player in that 25-30 year age range. Gomez may well look to be off too.
I think we need to dip into the CB market - Iād like Scholtterbeck, who has been linked by Mundo Deportivo to Real Madrid in the last day or so. Heās reportedly (via Florian Plettenberg (reportedly)) got a release clause that a select few clubs can trigger (including us).
Not many more out there to get excited. Lacroix seems competent, whoās been linked before, as has Lukeba (but young/no PL experience).
If only Hughes hadnāt pissed about with getting the Marc Guehi deal over the line last year!

Honestly Im pretty sure I went to raves back in the early 90s in not dissimilar garb. Anyone remember the old G Force jeans that were like wearing a tent on each leg?

Isak is the starterā¦ heāll play whenever he is available. Gakpo or Danns will likely play as the backup if he is healthy. Morrison, yeahā¦ he should be given game time but he wonāt likely start.
Diomande is 19 years old as well. .. after one season everyone is raving. We will never consistently develop our own Diomande unless we give them chances (provided we donāt overplay them if they are still growing).
So yeah, I get your point that many of our top youngsters are unprovenā¦ but if we donāt give them the chance over someone who is proven ineffective, than what is the point?

Because there are people who are professionals who decide (and yes, mistakes are sometimes made or players need time or a different environment) who merits a chance at the highest level, depending on many factors, one of which is: level of talent.
Not everyone can get a chance here or the same amount of chances. Few will get it and make it here. Itās simply the reality. Another kid of Ngumohaās age or older cannot get the same amount of chances here as him, as an example.
For us fans, we only have games to judge. And thatās only for ourselves. For them players, the chance is every day in training sessions. There are steps to make and some players make those steps quicker, because they show it on a daily basis and itās then hard to ignore.
Diomande might be one of those talents that could make it to the top from very different paths, if heās that talented. Not everyone is.
