When you watch Rice play Skipp is so far off his level. Sell him and let him get on with his career, he will never make it at spurs

Saw Rice for the first time in CM last night, looks a real player. It would wrong at this stage to compare him to Skipp, who knows where he'll be in a couple of years.
Little early in his career to start writing him off, but he does not demonstrate the same level of confidence and authority of Rice. Hudson-Odui and Sancho.. He is obviously rated by Poch, who sees much more of him than we do, so let's see what the next couple of years deliver before he is judged good enough.Well summarised!
Does Skipp seem slow to anyone? Certainly not very quick from what I’ve seen. Good brain on him though

Only if you promise that if Skipp does make it in the premier league, you eat your underwear.
Oh I know that, but it’s a similarly banal thing to write of Skipp to that extent off the back of so few minutes for us.Wrong poster lol.
And they never did eat all their underwear even though in writing...

If by top side you mean a side in the top 4 of the top 5 leagues (top 6 of PL), there isn't a single established 18 year old playing CDM. Guendouzi is the youngest at 19 (arguably a CM), the next youngest is Tousart at Lyon and he is 21.You can’t compare Skipp with 2 wingers. A CDM needs to be strong physically, I very much doubt there’s an established CDM playing in any top sides across Europe at 18. Sancho and Hudson odoi are bordering on freaks like a Rooney. And wingers can get away with being slight in build even though those 2 aren’t especially.
So what we saying ? Only need 1 cm in ?
I'd be happy with one, as long as they are quality - two of Sissoko Winks NewGuy with Skipp as backup seems decent.
It's not necessarily about the numbers but the type of player. We need a deep lying play maker. If that player gets injured we cant replace him which will affect how we play.I’d be happy with this as well.
Buying more than one CM would seriously block Skipps development.
