You're taking the piss but he would probably crumble, he's that mentally weak. Just look at Stones when we played City in January.

Only half taking the piss. It most definitely would damage his paper-thin confidence.

Really? A cup player and league bench warmer for £25m?

I'd be very surprised if we get anything over 20mil.

And personally I think with the right coaching (which he's had this season) from Poch he gets in their first 11.

To be fair Tubbey he hasn't made any secret of his wish to play somewhere else over the past 3 years.

That's fattist that is.

Literally wouldn't be bothered if he goes on the transfer list this afternoon.

I believe he's gone. I also believe Koeman is utterly not arsed by it. Ross will be sitting on the bench behind Dembele at Spurs (as apparently they see him in a deep role not as Alli 2) and getting rolled out in meaningless games next year before trying to rescue his career in 18 months time with a Loan move to West Ham or Stoke.

Very salty

With 12 months left, Spurs are going to get an absolute bargain.

No way he'll go cheap..and if he's available then others will want him, upping his price.
One thing we are good at is getting top dollar for players

No chance he's getting in ahead of Son, Alli or Eriksson.

But he is our superstar and too good for us? but its unfair to expect him to have a good game away from home? Ok!

I don't think anybody is saying that - I'm certainly not...

I'm just saying, none of the others have played well away from home - hence why we've won four away games all season.

haha apologies @Tubey i mistyped

He's got a club interested. That's why.

Noticed that all the other players that have signed new deals at the drop of a hat have zero interest from other clubs?

Where's our leverage? If the price hits anything high they will sit on their hands. Despite having a billionaire owner, we can't afford to have any player leave on a free.

They're building a better squad in the aim that they don't get knocked out in the group stages of the CL, and manage to maintain their top four position heading into their new stadium...

Ross Barkley is Toffee through and through??
What have we got?

A rotation with him in the mix with those 4 is hardly fantasy stuff, is it?

I'm pretty sure plenty of sides would be interested in taking Coleman before he got injured...
