So again rely on 15 players throughout the season? Why do we want to put ourselves through that again?
With some thorough scouting we can find players to truly compete with some of those we've already got. No point in swapping current benchwarmers for brand new ones
I agree with Ledders..............................we should be getting at least TWO proven quality players and possibly one or two with potential, like Sessegnon who would be just right for further development under Poch.
I would love someone like Isco, but that is unlikely. Andre Gray is a more likely arrival, as is Zaha.
LLM....................................I liked Siggy, however he is one of yesterday's men and it rarely works bringing players back. Yes I know we did it with Keane & Klinsmann, but to be honest those teams were not in the same bracket as our current squad, were they?
Siggy is an excellent player but he wouldn't be first choice at Spurs.
He is far too good to be warming the bench at any side.

We need to imorove the squad though. By that I do not mean make the bench better, but to have players there who can come in and the first XI is still strong.
We have the PL, CL (probably), League Cup and FA Cup next season. If you progress in all you need to mix and match and not rely on 13/14 players.
I think there is room in the squad for another creative attacking midfield player, even if Lamela goes. I want quality who could come in for a PL game sandwiched by big CL games. Not necessarily Siggy, but of that ilk
*even if Lamela DOES NOT GO
Lamela out. Full stop.
If we were to swap I'd even take Charlie Adam in return.
Lamela is simply awful. Put him down..I'll supply the gun . His injury was equal to making a marquee signing.
I hope his career is over. Write off the £30m. Good riddance.

This
It's nothing personal against those in our starting XI at the moment, but I want them to feel that if they drop their performances then there's the real chance they can lose their place in the team.
