Personally I'd say he's pretty good. Works very hard and is reliable on the ball. Always gets the most touches when he plays. Provides leadership. And his forward passing is quite underrated.

The reason why Spurs are willing to let him go is because he doesn't seem keen on extending and would prefer to get a fee for him now instead of next summer when he only has one year left on his contract. Our midfield depth is quite overkill right now too with him, Maddison, Bissouma, Sarr, Bentancur, Lo Celso and Skipp.


If you are talking about Hojbjerg I'm not entirely sure I understand. He's not the fastest player but he has fantastic stamina and is a keen presser. Barely misses a game so he eats a lot of minutes.
Sure but he was always slow and he’s lost a step. He’s got a ton of minutes. It’s clear Spurs aren’t playing him because he’s athletically a liability at this point. This is not the signing I would make, but to get signed by Utd you either have to know Ten Hag, assault (sexual and/or domestic) someone or both. So here we are.

Very curious what this Bayern offer for Chalobah will be.

Supposedly Spurs have a CB in their sights too. Not yet revealed who, but it isn't Adarabioyo or Schuurs.
I am betting it's Ko Itakura

PEH is underrated, and IMO it's foolish to sell him. He provides leadership and experience to a young midfield. I get with have Bentancur to come back, but I don't love selling PEH, and especially not to Man United.

He'd be a really smart target but there's been nothing about him looking to move this summer from any German sources. Elvedi & Kone have been much discussed, as has a loan for Fraulo, but Itakura seems content there for (at least) another season.

My question is wtf happened with Cucurella. He was decent in Spain and had that great season with Brighton and then just fell off the face of the earth at Chelsea.

This is true?

Mixed feelings as best case scenario he is Gini 2.0 for them. Which will elevate his play but kloppo would drain him. Worst case his injury issues worsen with a move to the epl and new role. So he’d be Kieta2.0

This is literally the first time that I have seen this.

Where is The Athletic is this? Have not seen anywhere

I think it’s just as likely that the infrastructure at Brighton is so good, it’s players moving away from that that struggle and can take time to re-adjust
