Yes but the condition behind that is obvious, in that spurs would have to be willing to listen to a loan offer for us to be able to loan him - which is a likely outcome.
So a future real conditional not a future unreal one

Yeah I acknowledge that my brain did not produce good words there.
Sometimes you gotta leave those and take it on the chin.
Is he much better than Tom Davies?. I agree technically on the ball he is but is it what we need. With tight funds we have, think we need to address major key areas. First one being a holding midfielder, a centre back and potentially replacement for Richie.

I don't think Tom is good enough for us. Shame as he seems a top lad - but footy is ruthless - so I think we need to move him on.
Add Southampton to that list.

Expected to complete Tarkowski signing, who was apparently leaning towards us over Villa.
Winks (loan with option) & Gallagher on a list of players we want, Lampard wants at least 4 in this window. Gilmour liked too
Frank Lampard targets Tottenham's Harry Winks in Everton rebuild
Meanwhile, a deal for defender James Tarkowski on a free transfer is close to completionwww.telegraph.co.uk
So, it looks like:
CB: Tarkowski (Free)
CM: Gallagher (loan)
DM: Winks (loan)
DM: Gilmour (Fee)
3 England internationals and a young Scottish international.
I'd be happy with that if we were able to shift some players out and extend our best guys contracts.
I think weve seen Lampard work well with those player profiles linked.
For the negativity around Winks...hes a VERY good passer but looks like his confidence was ruined in a similar way to Dele's perhaps.
Id be happy seeing both in the same 11 as they seemed to do well together under Pochittino who loved both of them.
Perhaps Lampard can bring their confidence back...if he can then theyre both high quality technically gifted players.
In addition, if we are successful in shifting certain players out fees I hope we can sneak in one or two more younger profile players....but those 4 would definitely seem to make us more 'robust' and also more suited to Lampard.

Do we have £15m+ to spend on him? Can he adapt to the PL?
Will he pick us over other clubs? such as clubs with European football who are linked, or even Palace who are heavily interested where he would be managed by a French speaking former world class defensive midfielder (which I'm sure would be an attractive proposition for him).
You have suggested he is a player who 'might not suck'. Big gamble on someone when the people championing him aren't even convinced. Especially when we are skint and are playing in the freebie/loan categories.

You're right. Let's instead just sign Winks and suck. Why risk it

I mean I don't want winks, but signing kids from the French league is a gamble. We don't have the money to take gambles right now. Because if they fail, we are in an even worse position.
They have to also want to come to us, and like I say, is it likely that he would pick us over a club in Europe, or even over viera?

Needs his own thread.

I'd argue it's the opposite. I think we have to take on some risk or we can't move forward.
Maybe he's not the right risk but unless we're doing something with a downside there is no upside.
