He may be past his best but (repeating myself here) he’s still the best attacking player Spurs have by a mile.
We should only sell Son if he won't sign a new contract and he is entering the final year. Otherwise stick him back on the left and get someone decent for him to ignore play off.
Next season's transfer window dates have been revealed Summer window: 14th June-30th August Winter window: 1st January-3rd February Also worth noting the closing dates are consistent between the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and Ligue 1
The MLS season doesn't align with western Europe, as it's February-October (or February-December if you're in the playoffs) On the other hand the Saudi league does share the August-May timetable of most of those leagues, but let's be honest they shouldn't be involved in discussions about aligning transfer windows since they're a gold-plated retirement home (among the myriad of other reasons...) That being said, it is odd the Eredivisie and Primeira Liga weren't mentioned in the statement for a variety of reasons
Spot on. I think our priority signing needs to be an out and out goal scorer. In last nights game there was 4 of them out on the right wing playing tiki taka which is all very nice but no target man in the box waiting for a cross or a throughball. Richys graft is commendable but his speed & finishing isn't up to scratch. Sonny is going through one of his flat spots but at some stage he will bounce back to form, he's proven that times over. I'd definitely keep him based on his current stats for this year alone. Upgrading from the front is going to be the key for next season.
Having been reading about our lack of CF/targetman. We have on our books a number of young players with enormous potential, but it looks like we will follow the path of having them having them but never playing them. Other clubs seem to have no issue in giving these youngsters a chance, but we have form in this area for as long as i can recall. Can anyone enlighten me as to why this is so. Its bloody frustrating to see all that talent ignored.
Michael Olise's agent has been handed a six month ban from football activities. Get on your phone Daniel.
Olise, and Eze for that matter, are two wonderful players. But unless I’m misunderstanding it I think their injury records should be a cause for concern no?
Can only think the managers (as it’s not just Ange) don’t think the young players are ready for the first team. I’ve stuck up for the club in respect to this in the past but this season (after losing Kane) I think there was a chance to try it.
For the quality both possess, I’d happily take the risk on them. I reckon if you can get 25+ games from both of them throughout a season you’d finish higher in the table than you would with 38 games from our current players starting every week. Rocky Blue will be shouting down from above at us to especially get Eze, he was raving about him after Wycombe had him on loan as much as I was raving about Watkins in his Exeter days.
The short answer is that we're rarely in a position to deem fixtures to be low priority, which is often where youngsters get regular runouts for other clubs since the domestic cups are usually treated as secondary until they reach the quarter finals (or their season's been a write-off otherwise) That's the thing with Harry Redknapp sacking off the Europa League in 2011-12, it meant that Andros Townsend, Jake Livermore and Tom Carroll got some regular minutes to build off of, and we haven't really been in that position since as we're either in the CL and/or make such a pig's ear of it the youngsters get the same 90 minute window as everyone else as happened against Colchester a few years back Realistically fans need to accept that if we're going to blood youngsters that means the Season Killer Cup needs to be low priority in the early rounds as giving minutes to Donley, Dorrington, Lankshear et al is most important at that stage of the season...so, of course, we inevitably get drawn away to Chelsea for the first game
I can imagine a few of the U21s will be in demand for next season. I just hope they go to clubs either in or close to London, where they can easier maintain contact with the club and their friends etc.
Italian media yet again linking Napoli with Dragusin. Be a shame to lose him, yet equally would understand if he wanted a quick exit.
