Look at Vardy too. He looks a real top level striker and didn't look out of his depth in England Vs Germany - he's 29 and was playing for Halifax Town a few years ago!
Yeah i have had a few great arguments like that.
Retard: "If it wasn't for Kane and Alli you wouldn't score half the goals you score"
Me: "Well no, under half probably, your point is?"
Retard 2: "Spurs are just a team that has a world class defence and a world class striker".
Me: "yeah I'm...
His first season was good. There was a lot there to build on. Unfortunately i think he probably grew frustrated over what appears to be a significant separation between who he expected us to sign and the reality of who we could or were willing to sign. I think as at Chelsea he let any boardroom...
Winks is really pushing to start but neither Wanyama nor Dembele really deserve to be dropped and looking over your shoulder is no bad thing particularly with Dembele who can coast a bit if he finds things too easy. Nice problem to have.
The more time goes on the more Alli reminds me of...
Is clearly being groomed to take over from Dembele. Although he's a different player. Dembele is unique sitting deep and dribbling to move the ball upfield with strength to hold others off. He is like a chilled out version of gazza that doesn't score as much.
Winks seems to me to be your...
Well it's not entirely bollocks as you're probably shopping in a different bracket. If Pochettino doesn't want to play 2 upfront we aren't going to as a club break the bank for a, say, Lacazette, we will be going for players who are up and coming who will cost a bit less and will be motivated...
What i would say was there was more determination to get into the box and get in those dangerous positions. There was more willingness to shoot on sight too. He had quite a few blocked efforts. It was more of what he was in the Eiredivise, a rampaging nuisance, rough around the edges. My only...
Everyone makes mistakes. Vertonghen gifted Everton a goal at the weekend. Lloris gifted Man City 2 goals a few weeks ago.
One of the reasons Dier makes more mistakes than Toby and Jan is that he is 23 and they are 30 and 27. When they were 23 they were both still at Ajax learning their trade in...
He shys away from the penalty area not defenders. He is so busy dropping deep and fighting with defenders he does not attack the box or get in positions to score.
I trust Pochettino too. He clearly does not rate Janssen.
It is truly remarkable. He hasn't even shown the link up play and intelligence Soldado had. He isn't even as good as Pavlyuchenko.
Pochettino has preferred Son upfront to him this season and we have looked a better team with Son upfront than with Janssen.
What does he have that would make a...
The three at the back should in theory allow any of the defenders to bring the ball out of the back in an aggressive manner. Both our left and right CB have played full-back before as well, so they should both be natural at bombing forward. Jan has mastered the art of timing and confidence doing...
Really? I think Alli is at least as good at dribbling, which is Barkley's main thing. Alli loves a nutmeg. In every other respect to Barkley he is superior. Work rate, tackling, strength, touch, control, technique, finishing, left foot, right foot, heading, movement, timing of his runs, team...
True but I think he saw N'Jie and N'Koudou as punts or options off the bench in who can play in the wider positions. Similar to Sissoko although at £30m he wasn't a cheap punt.
I think Pochettino likes a small squad of versatile multi-positional players. So I think Son is his 3rd striker (as well as being an option across the 3 attacking midfield slots).
He's also openly praised Shayon Harrison and Kaziah Sterling before and said he would be looking to them to step...
