Fernandes can

It would be Fernandes and Tonali with an AM in front. The AM would be one of Maddison/Kulu/Xavi and maybe Gallagher for a certain type of match. That's assuming we get both deals over the line.

The Fernandes deal compliments Tonali because one of the questions was how much of a tempo setter Tonali is (he isn't really, although a very technically sound passer). Pairing him with Fernandes gives basically complete balance in the deeper pairing.

You can also pair either of them with Bentancur or Gray and it’s still a very competent midfield double pivot.

I agree with all that. Except with the injury situation to our three main #10s, unfortunately Gallagher is going to end up toiling there a lot.
 
Didn’t Gallagher have his best season for Palace in the 10 role? Wasn’t he playing the 10 role in the last few games of the season where he looked pretty good?
 
If the BBC have puffed and panted their way to finally writing about our interest in Fernandes then it's got to have advanced well beyond that now.
Exciting stuff.
 
Is there any chance he goes a bit cheaper if West Ham need money for this years accounts, they must need revenue before 30 June.
I think that is where man united are lurking

West Ham want as much, upfront and before June 30th.

It works against United who were hoping the player would do "I'm only interested in United" like Mbeumo last summer and wait out everyone.

In last 4-6 hours pretty much everyone is reporting it as Spurs involved ..
