Step up for him, I don't overly think he's anything special but we'll see how he does under Conte. £60m is a lot of money for Spurs.
We are interested in Dennis, Cornet, Lewis-Potter in terms of attacking outlet.Who are they going to replace him with? Think he is more reliable than DCL recently as a game winner.
They seem a bit of a downgrade, I like Gordon, but he is young.We are interested in Dennis, Cornet, Lewis-Potter in terms of attacking outlet.
Richarlison will be replaced on the left by Gordon. We will be buying a new striker/RW.
Well, obviously they're going to be a downgrade. We don't have the funds or the draw to bring in a player of the calibre we have took Richy to since we nearly got relegated last year and funds are tight because of FFP. We are left with trying to grab players around the 20m mark that have potential and resale value.They seem a bit of a downgrade, I like Gordon, but he is young.
That's a bit of a mess. Isn't there a rumoured takeover?Well, obviously they're going to be a downgrade.

I'd be fuming if we spent £60 million of our limited budget on Richarlison.We should have been all over this. But of course, again, we bow to every wish of the manager without having a coherent long-term strategy in place. It's Groundhog Day really. Van Gaal, Mourinho, Ten Haag, the names change but the same old failing strategy remains. I sincerely hope Ten Haag will succeed, because if he doesn't we'll find ourselves in the same position we do today, an unbalanced squad assembled to fit 4 different managers with 4 different philosophies.
I'm not sad about not signing Richarlison tbh.We should have been all over this. But of course, again, we bow to every wish of the manager without having a coherent long-term strategy in place.

We have changed how we operate. We most certainly dont bow down to every with of the manager, where are you getting this from?We should have been all over this.

Yes but that doesn’t matter to FFP considering the losses that we have had previously. If we are taken over we will have a little bit more to work with but not as much as others.That's a bit of a mess. Isn't there a rumoured takeover?
So, January.this year no since they are backing him financially. soon as levy closes the checkbook he will absolute implode.
Without looking i bet Cornet and Dennis had similar stats to Richalrison last season and will probably be available for 20 million each.They seem a bit of a downgrade, I like Gordon, but he is young.
Not as much pashun thoughWithout looking i bet Cornet and Dennis had similar stats to Richalrison last season and will probably be available for 20 million each.
Dennis had 1 more assist, same goals. Cornet had 1 less goal and 4 less assists. Neither of them matched Richarlisons defensive stats which are some of the best in the league and what sets him apart from many other forwards (he's pretty complete as a forward). Either way on a purely footballing level I think they'd be decent additions considering their age, fee and how many other players are available for us to get.Without looking i bet Cornet and Dennis had similar stats to Richalrison last season and will probably be available for 20 million each.
To be honest, Dennis isn't a bad replacement. Yes, he won't have the attitude and mentality of Richarlison but he will get you goals which is what you would want now.We are interested in Dennis, Cornet, Lewis-Potter in terms of attacking outlet.

Having a strategy doesn't mean buying players your manager doesn't want. It means matching managers and players over the long term. The current strategy of buying players the current manager wants is absolutely correct. The key is that, when one manager needs replacing, the next manager can use the same kind of players the last one did.We should have been all over this.

Makes Frenkie de Jong look a bargainOk. Now Raphinha for 60M makes sense for today's market. This is the market rate.
Not much difference for European players vs other countries, but obviously English players are more expensive in general.Why is it because he is not European or English? The way some people underrate non European players is insane. I saw Darren Brent's article comparing Sterling to Neymar
It really is a horrible time in football's development isn't it.Jesus for 45m, Richarlison for 60m, and Nunez 85m.
Strikers on 30% inflation rate.
It's just insane numbers by PL Clubs. More PL Clubs should be dominating Europe with the amount of money they spent. How in the world a severely limited striker like Richarlison could cost 60m.It really is a horrible time in football's development isn't it.
It seems like there has never been a time with more limited "top" players in all positions, yet the fees have never been higher.It's just insane numbers by PL Clubs.

Yeh. In this recession time, too, with no end in sight. You'd think that Clubs would be more careful with their money.It seems like there has never been a time with more limited "top" players in all positions, yet the fees have never been higher.
It's daft.
Worst examples are the likes of Lukaku, who is utterly limited in many aspects of his game, going for around 100m.
There are not that many top quality forwards around so they come at a premium.It really is a horrible time in football's development isn't it.
They paid 40m for him and I'd be surprised if there are any Everton fans not happy with what they got. An absolute work horse and he's still developing. Maybe 60 is a bit rich, but it makes sense they can sell him at a profit.I dont mind Richarlison but no way is he worth 60mil.
I can't say I agree. He's of a relatively rare breed of attackers that works tirelessly, which is anything but average. He's good technically too. He's not the most prolific but he's been played all over the place for Everton, so it's not fair to judge his goalscoring numbers against true CFs.Bang average.
He's Fabio Borini who had a bit of a purple patch at Watford when Everton were desperate.I can't say I agree.

Besides, just a hunch, but I've always felt that if he was part of a better team then his numbers would improve. He'll probably not play as a striker there with Kane about, but he could play similar to Son, who I believe was their top scorer in the league playing off Kane.
They've got a pretty tasty attack now, come to think of it. Kulusevski looks really good also. Potentially 4 top class attackers.
They're going to be really tough to play against for sure. The profile of player there signing is the sort I'd target if I was a manager. All good footballers but a lot of fight and energy. Perisic and Richarlison both fall into that category. Think they just need a bit of craft in midfield and improvements in defence, but by all accounts that's what they're trying to sort out also. If they sort that then Conte could have them challenging on all fronts.Good signing. Spurs are going to run most teams off the pitch next season.
Conte and the Brazil national coach disagree with you… you have to wonder if perhaps they know more about footy than you do I guess.He's Fabio Borini who had a bit of a purple patch at Watford when Everton were desperate.
11 goals in all comps next season for 60 million.
