I like that he appears to cut inside more than go out wide, I think learning to take a player on with your stronger foot is a lot easier to learn than being coached to turn inside from full back a la Baines
Needs both really imo, always best to keep the RB guessing which way you're gonna go.

So to sum up some Spurs' fans logic:

Stats show Davies is better than Shaw- "Stats are bullshit and mean nothing"

Stats show Rose is better than Davies- "You see! We're just buying an average Left-Back that's just as good/bad as Rose. How are we going to get into the Top 4 now!"

Yeah it's almost as if there are lots of Spurs fans who have different views.

Why do people think different people from a group of people having different views is a sign that they lack logic or are contradicting themselves?

That's what I'm saying lol, just that it's easier to be coached well one way rather than the other
Problem is from everything I've seen and read about Rose is that he's an obstinate little fucker who is hard to coach and iron out his bad habits - even on tour now he's by all accounts ambling around and feels it's his God given right to start for us.

Needs a reality check that lad.

Has anyone at the club actually said anything? Anyone who sees him day to day?

What reports?

He's made it clear through Twitter that he wants 1st team football and not interested in being a squad player. Are there actual reports of him being a bad trainer?

here's one from moomin at the open training session yesterday http://spurscommunity.co.uk/index.p...enham-match-thread.110615/page-2#post-4124929

- Danny Rose looked like he didn't give a shit. in warm ups he was barely moving. and one of the coaches was talking to a player next to him in warm ups and he just stood there with the angriest look on his face looking at them. really not sure what that was about. but he didn't seem too happy in general.

Aubergine, you dumb ass...if you want to Spam people, try to do it once you have been on the site for longer than 5 minutes.....man up you pussy

and that goes for you as well USAYID....i don't whether to fuck you or arm fist you two ***** :D

I absolutely never complain about neg reps but I think we should all take the time to applaud this noble, humble, 57 year old man who took the time (after verbally abusing one out members) to personally neg rep the last post of each member who, quite justifiably, rated that post as spam.

Congratulations sir. Well done.

Get him in as quickly as possible, and more important, get rid of thet disgrace Rose as soon as possible. Heard Sunderland has money to spend.

by the way Clint baby, I was expressing an opinion about Davies which I was spammed for. Seriously, spammed for an opinion?

Of course all you girls then jump on the bandwagon and spam me when I respond calling the spammer out. Cant you think for yourself...you lemming.

But i still love you all (y)

This has nothing to do with Ben Davies so I'm marking it spam. K?

As Spurrific said yesterday, so many football hipsters on here these days. Pivots and transitionals and ironic beards and vertical passes and laptops in Starbucks.
Pshhh, pivots are just transitional registas, with the odd liberto often being improperly identified as such :pompous:

I hate the term football hipster. Just because someone doesn't have a beer gut and chat shit down the pub after 8 Stellas, it doesn't make them a "hipster".
