Match Thread Spurs V Everton - 24th May 4pm

Here's one, signing older, high wage players for substantial fees is the road to financial penury. As you like to say, just look at West Ham.
Of course, no one would argue with that. But those were not the type of players he signed there, is the whole point. But having some experience in a team is also very important. You need a good balance of old and young players.

I’d like to see us with a good first eleven with peak players and a few older and younger.

You literally proposed signing Wan Bissaka, Soucek and Bowen from soon to be relegated West Ham like six posts ago. Buying old, expensive players who are ever presents in a relegated team seems like a terrible plan to me.

Wan-Bissaka is only 28 and would be quite cheap, as would Soucek. Bowen would only be an option if someone take N’Diaye as he’d fit the mould of a first eleven experienced player. Our chances of getting Bowen look very slim anyway.

28, 31, 29. Definitely won't be cheap in either fees or wages. Their current wages - £90k, £90k, £150k a week. £330k a week, £17m a year for three relegated players on their last major contracts. Terrible idea.
 
I think Myko is someone we can rely on in a push but we definitely need a new right back. I’d actually say we also need a new centre half, central midfielder and striker. If N’Diaye goes we need a new right winger as well, if we are keeping Grealish.

If West Ham go down I think Wan Bissaka, Bowen and Soucek would be worth considering. Soucek for me would be a squad filler for Gana if he decides to leave. Wan Bissaka is actually a phenomenal defensive right back, you just need to use him like they did at Palace and not expect him to be an overlapping attacking player.
Take the right back & look for an overlapping left back leave the rest ...at WHam..
