Tottenham Hotspur supporters in the Transfer Tavern are delighted that their side has finally begun to strengthen.
The vast majority of the summer represented a bitterly frustrating period for Tottenham supporters, watching fierce rivals exercising their substantial financial resources and improving the quality of their squad, while their club seemed non-existent in the transfer market.
Fear not Spurs fans, your prayers have been answered, and finally, it appears that Spurs are poised to splash the cash.
Mauricio Pochettino has stressed his desire to acquire reinforcements to augment the options that he has at his disposal.
The big money departure of Kyle Walker to Manchester City was a clear indicator that money was available to reinvest in the squad. Davinson Sanchez has been acquired from Ajax to enhance the quality of Spurs’ defensive options, and another name that has frequently been linked with a move to North London has been Ross Barkley.
While our landlord acknowledges that Barkley is a gifted player and he’s been of immense significance to Everton in recent seasons, he identifies West Ham’s Manuel Lanzini as a superior option that Spurs should pursue.
The Argentinian playmaker is a proficient taker of set-pieces, who is so often the source of creativity and inspiration to the Hammers.
From a technical perspective, Lanzini is an accomplished player who exhibits the capacity to change the course of a game single-handedly.
If Tottenham is sincerely hoping to acquire the services of a creative attacking midfielder, then they should look no further than Lanzini.
Spurs fans, do you agree? Let us know!
