Like everything else the transfer scenario going forward, both in terms of the football outcomes, and the economy, is difficult to predict.
If season 19/20 is eventually abandoned, and Spurs qualify for the 20/21 CL by virtue of the 18/19 finish, we may see one or two decent signings. If we don't qualify, and has already been reported, it is probably unlikely that Jose will get much support in the market.
Agree with you regarding Lovren, prefer any combination of Alderweireld, Sanchez and Tanganga, and would prefer seeing Vertonghen given another couple of seasons.
Disagree concerning Shaqiri. He doesn't get much game time at Liverpool because of the strength of the preferred starting eleven, and an almost ever present front three. When he has played however, he has invariably been quite impressive. Spurs could do far worse.
Some papers are saying John Stones Man City future is on doubt as Guardiola eyes replacements. Would anyone here take John Stones to see if Jose can get his career back on track?
I wouldn’t...he was impressive when he first appeared at Everton? I think but since his time at City he always looks like a player who thinks he is better than he is and hasn’t progressed...I think him and Jose would be a train wreckSome papers are saying John Stones Man City future is on doubt as Guardiola eyes replacements.

First bombshell was the news that we are interested in Smallin, then it wasWillian, Shaqiri and now Godin ! A 34 year old to replace a 32 year old. The mind boggles. If we really want to go forward it’s names like Dybala, Couthinio, Holland etc that will take us forward and be regarded as a top club which we deserve to be. Couthinio has said that he was disappointed when he was led to believe that we agreed a price for him which we later lowered and the deal never happened. I remember the same thing happened with Aubameyang and he said later that after what happened he would never join us. And that‘S how and why he ended at the Arse.
I hope not...you’ve only just recoveredIts strange how I have totally lost any interest in sport. I'm sure the bug will come back in a few weeks.

AS most of you know, I am invested in a sports agency, a couple of days ago via my agent, I got Countinho agent to be made aware of what utter garbage was being put about by so-called ITK's - it was brought to my attention by someone here and my answer to him was that it was B/S. He decided that he'd let the crap stand (it was on another b/s forum), I understand why he did, but it pissed me off.
Today his agent had this to say via the media: (It's about as big a slapdown as the people that make this sh*t up could get)...
"The topic of his Tottenham links has cropped up again recently, as SPORT claimed earlier this month that Coutinho actually agreed to join Spurs, but the deal fell apart at the last minute.
Now, agent Kia Joorabchian has suggested to The Mirror that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is not to blame for the deal falling apart and Coutinho has no personal issue with him, claiming finances were not the reason for Coutinho heading elsewhere – which may leave Spurs fans wondering what happened, especially with The Mirror claiming that it was Pochettino who scrapped the deal."
“Philippe Coutinho has no personal issue with Daniel Levy and claims otherwise are totally false,” said Joorabchian. “The deal did not collapse due to financial reasons,” he added.
Thanks Kia, I owe you one. Ex
How much would he have cost us ?

And which window are we talking about? Loan or permanent?
And before this gets out of hand: We were competing wih Barca and a small host of other top clubs to get him, but I am told they have no interest in signing him now....
"Barcelona might have prioritised signing another striker in the summer but the Spanish side are also looking to bring in a long-term replacement for Ivan Rakitic and have made Spurs' Tanguy Ndombele a transfer target.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Barca was interested in signing Ndombele before he completed his £65m move from Lyon to Spurs and are now exploring the option of signing the Frenchman.
Mourinho hasn't been afraid to criticise the midfielder this season for his performances and injuries issues and Barca are hoping the player could be included in a deal that would see Coutinho go in the other direction.
Since arriving at the north London club, Ndombele has made 27 appearances, of which he only started 17, during which he has scored two goals and provide four assists."
