Thoughts on transfers that are happening/happened very recently in the PL

Including Reguilon/Bale/Martinez/Brewster and more!
[THREAD]
Sergio Reguilon to Spurs - nearly a done deal but a great get for them. Adds quality & helps to address their full back situation. Never been convinced by Ben Davies at all. They will have someone who can link up well with Son and over/under lap at will...
But they've only been allowed to sign him because of a buy back clause? United didn't go for the buy back but shows Spurs were desperate for a player in that position.

Even if they get 1 or 2 years out of him, it will improve them either way!
Emi Martinez to Villa - came into Arsenal's team when Leno was injured in the back end of last season. He showed everyone that he was a really capable keeper in the air and in terms of shot stopping. The guy deserves to play regular PL football - great get for Villa!
Ivanovic to West Brom - as much as I LOVE seeing Branna back in the PL, at 36, you wonder what he's got left. Been at Zenit for 3 years winning 3 trophies. More of a CB these days than a RB, as he will have lost his pace. Adds experience I guess, but its great to see him back!
Bale to Spurs?? this deal is edging ever closer. Perhaps it could be the move, in the short term at least, that reinvigorates Bale & motivates him to play at his best level again! If it does, it will elevate Spurs massively, only on loan means low risk with wages split.
Been saying for a while that Bale should come back to the Prem and get back to playing regular football in a league that loves him as opposed to Madrid where it has been toxic for him for a while. Despite scoring countless goals and having magical moments.
Brewster to Sheff Utd? Idk if this is a loan or being sold with a buy back. If you have a talented youngster who's not ready to challenge first team then you loan him out. Selling him makes it look like there is no belief in his potential. I would loan him to Sheff to get mins!
Declan Rice to Chelsea? With the fee West Ham are demanding I would leave it for this season. We have already signed countless players. I would make him a main target next season for sure, I think it is inevitable we will get him in the future, just not this summer.
