I think a very sensible squad depth transfer, allowing for Son to become a winger ocassionally, would be Joe Devine. You know, that big old Bayern Munich #9.

Jota on loan is surely a shout for a winger who can go both in and out. Not wanted by Al Nassr because of their rules about foreign players, and has worked with him at Celtic. He is also a very hard working player in defence as well which is something that flies under the radar when discussing him. I imagine Ange would've went in for Daizen Maeda or Kyogo Furuhashi had they not signed 5 year deals at the start of the season, as they are both more or less built specifically for pressing high tempo teams.

there was a leak a while ago that ange had gone for one player over another as he felt one wanted to go to spurs while another was more interested in leaving there current club. My theory was it was about Brennan Johnson and Jota as his stay at ittihad hasnt gone very well so if it was about him i doubt he'll be joining spurs anytime soon but if im wrong and he does join I would be over the moon

As a Swede and a Djurgårdens IF and Spurs fan I would love to see them sign Lucas Bergvall as a midfielder. He is currently linked with United, Inter, Barca and Frankfurt, the latter two have already given bids for him. Might be biased but I think he could develop into a really solid 8 or 10, sort of like a younger Maddison that can progress the ball. Barca fans really like to compare him to De Jong, but maybe with a slightly better eye for goal. He is very elegant and with development I think he can be strong enough physically for the PL soon, he is quite tall at 186cm/6.1ft and only 17. I really hope Spurs scout him further and sign him! And like JJ said, its a good sign when the player does well in his domestic league and Internationally, he had his first Sweden cap a few weeks ago.

I signed him for Spurs in my old FM23 save :D Also signed Pedro Goncalves, so it feels like my scouting has been validated :D

I will add my love for Tifo - the analysis is good, but loved the style and as they say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. I think the choices were a mixture between predictability, which I understand why, and not quite the right fit. I always like to find out about new players who might not be on the radar and I think Savio was a good shout as I have only come across him recently. Regarding the profile for the CM, I understand the choices, especially Gallagher, but for me the choice of Pote misses one of the leading attributes Ange wants & that is strength and Athleticism. Gallagher is a good size, has the 5th or 6th most distance covered in the PL and is a true box to box midfielder. Whilst Pote is a consistently high performer and also has PL experience, he feels more advanced naturally and seems to lack more of the defensive side as well as being tiny enough to put in your pocket. My alternatives based on profile are Kone at Gladbach as the best natural fit, then Thuram at Nice who is in the last 18 months of his contract and whilst still raw, has some great attributes to build on as well as pedigree, size, athleticism. Ederson at Atalanta is another player that fits the criteria, but the main issue with all of these is that they are non-home grown, which may cause issues down the line and this is one of the major upsides on Gallagher, especially if Skipp eventually moves on.

Wide Player - Kvaratshkelia (Napoli not doing well this season means they are more willing to sell him) Midfielder - Palacios from Leverkusen. Aggressive ball winner but great against the press and can make good short, incisive passing. I do love Pedro Goncalves and wanted him to sign for Liverpool a few years ago but I’d not hate Liverpool taking Pote or Palacios and Spurs taking the other Wildcard - Pedro Neto. Creative force who can play on both wings and great on both feet. Wolves’ star man but they wouldn’t charge that much compared to other clubs for their star player.

Kvaratshkelia isn't realistic for Spurs. Too expensive, and will be sought after by bigger clubs, offering more lucrative wages. I'm pretty sure Kvara (or his agent) has been fairly vocal about his intention to play for the likes of Madrid, Barca, City, Bayern, and he's likely capable of making that move this summer despite Napoli's struggles this season. (I'd personally love to see Kvara at Liverpool, although I doubt it will happen. Salah will need an heir in the next couple of years whether we like it or not).

He's not a very progressive passer yet carries progressively and passes very creatively, both more than making up for it. His chance creation rate from dribbles is barmy, he converts well despite shooting from quite far out, looks good on either side, and gets through a ton of defensive work for a more attacking player... brilliant Is he a winger or inside forward type of wide man? He seems pretty two footed but plays mostly on the left?

I feel like spurs are like 5 players from having a great team. Nusa (as mentioned) and Calafiori (or someone of his profile: fast, strong, can play multiple position in the defense) are nobrainers for me. But I'd also love to add another winger of different profile in Goncalves or Kubo (there were links about Gil to Sociedad). And most definitely a new number 6/8. Vermeeren would be a class option.

Tifo irl started like something I wouldn’t enjoy as much as tifo. But wow these videos are ample and very informative. Also the hosts have just gotten way better and they are funny and so entertaining to watch now. :) lfg tifo, well i mean the Athletic

Roony Bardjhi as Maddison's understudy, can probably play on the wing too.

lowkey shout is brajan gruda from mainz young right winger and he’s class also saw a stat recently that only doku completes more dribbles a game than him in the top 5 leagues for u21 players

I think we have a lot of players at wing right now. I agree with y'all's take on the midfield situation, but I think Kulusevski could step into that 8 very nicely. He likes to take shots from that position, and he has played there in the past. I also look at Scott McTominay as a really good fit. This system requires players to crash the box, and we've seen that he can do that. He's a tall figure, decent gaol scorer, and also aggressive out of position, I think he'd be great. I also wish Tanguy worked out for them. He has amazing skill with the ball and could be amazing, but maybe something changes.

We dont need anyone in midfield, honestly. Gallegher is only linked because Hojbjerg might leave. Bissouma, Bentancur and Maddison has the potential to be the best midfield in the league. The missing puzzle piece is a LW or a ST that can contribute over 20 goals/assists a season alongside Son and Kulusexy.

Could you do Forest and Everton considering the FFP situations?

JJ rocking a shirt looks about 10 years older😂 1-1 but Jon wins on a technicality for me. Nusa is a good shout, but Gallagher is inspired. One of those signings you'd never think about until someone like Jon says it and then it just makes so much sense.

I'd like to know who is the most offensively influential player off the ball currently in the top 5 leagues. Aka who is doing a lot with their movement but not with the ball?

I believe Rodrigo Zalazar is a player who would fit in very well in postecoglus physical high. tempo style. and he has an absolute cannon of a right foot.

Pote is an amazing player, pretty underrated, I'd love to see him on Spurs

Nusa comes with a good rep and potentially he'll be a great but if we don't get him, for an out and out winger, I'd go for Neto from Wolves ... unfortunately he'd now cost a fair quid so as an aside, congrats to Wolves for picking him up to begin with, because at 23 he's going to be stellar ... off topic to getting a winger, I haven't watched this lot before but I caught the mention of Neco Williams ... as a RB, RWB or if needs be a LB, LWB, with Ange and his team to coach and given the quality of players he'll have around him he'd be a great get ... if he was Spanish, Italian, Portuguese or whatever he'd be 30-40-50 mill ... Forest picked him up for 17 mill ... another trick Conte missed ... for a midfielder it has to be Alex Scott ... we've done great in the market these past couple of years (after some absolutely dismal gets over a decade) but he's another massive miss that should easily, given he's a lifelong Spurs fan, should have been ours

Up the spurs! ❤

Sarr as a backup? That is disrespectful

the player I think would be absolutely perfect for Spurs is one they just won't be able to get under any circumstances now that player being Jeremy Doku, god if Spurs had an attack of Doku, Son, Maddison behind and I guess Richarlison making good runs and bothering defenders, it'd be a scary thing

Gotta do one for Liverpool's new manager! Hoping we get Alonso but for now i'm grateful to Lopp but also nervous

Bentancur is a starter for me. He has been injured for months and only just back fit. He just oozes class, the cliche Rolls Royce is how I'd describe him as a CM. He's one of those players whose first touch seems to always put him in a better position.

I'm playing FM as Bristol City and signed Savio and Ito before this video, man I'm sensible

Please do Bournemouth next :)

Dragusin is underrated, he will be a starter soon for Totteham, the question is if Ange will change formation for a 3-4-3/5-2-3 or drop Romero or Van de Ven

plz do section on players from non European leagues and leagues' second divisions who could step-up to elite football levels with little or no adjustment periods. Thank you.

As a Forest fan I could see Gibbs-White being a good signing for Spurs. But also as a Forest fan, I'd expect him to cost them an absoulte fortune. To me he has higher potential than Johnson combined with that all important young-English-player-tax. We have other players that can be sold ahead of MGW to keep us inline with FFP, therefore I doubt we'd entertain anything less than £80m

Surely, with the sporting capacity and facilities at Tottenham, you would think that their academy will have a whole host of players who could be natured into the first team. Why is this not being prioritised? Young players are impressionable and have the capacity to adapt to any given managerial system. Instead of spending a large sum on somebody else's academy product, Levy would surely want to use what he has at his disposal - a youth academy. Since Levy is weary of spending for the sake of it, Tottenham's academy can integrate talent into the first team. I understand that sourcing such talent from an academy doesn't guarantee results, but, given the plethora of talent that has graduated from Spur's academy - the likes of Kane, Bale, Edwards, Skipp, etcetera - it's surely of greater value to Levy and the club to maximise their talent pool. Otherwise, an entire generation of footballers will migrate into the periphery, and into obscurity because vital talent wasn't sought after within their own ranks. Future Harry Kane's and Bale's are not gaining first-team minuets, thus their careers dissipate, spiralling into irrelevance at the foot of the EFL or lower.

I would take gibbs white over Gallagher, but more this I'm just glad you recommended 2 English players in a key position they need
