    Arkadiusz Milik

    I'm unclear why Batshuayi isnt being considered as an option - clearly surplus to requirements at Chelsea, tall, quick, available for loan, can lead the line and scores goals - would be an ideal loan signing - if they were willing to loan to a competitor that is...

    Youri Tielemans

    I've wanted Tielermans at Spurs for a while now- hes exactly what we need. Industrious, ball winner, uses it well - real touch of class about him.

    PIKEY BOYS? why

    Always found it odd that people who idolised Van Der Vaart (or Dimitrescu) during their time at Spurs feel comfortable using derogatory slurs about Gypsies. Some other players of Roma/Sinti/Traveller background? Ibrahimovic, Pirlo, Hagi, Savičevič, Stoickov, Cantona and plenty of other greats...

    Does anyone know how drainage works with the slide away grass pitch?

    Underground pitch heating

    I think that the combination of shelter when stowed and heat from grow lighting when out the risk of the pitch becoming water logged and then freezing in a frost are eliminated. I haven't seen any heating system go in under the grass. A bigger question is how on earth drainage works. Does the...

    I think the pitch lighting rigs stow away in trenches at the North end of the pitch. That's is the reason for the extra distance from pitch to row 1 in north compared to the south.

    Player Watch: Kieran Trippier

    There is no Waitrose nearby. Lives near me. Polite, down to earth family man - no local branch of Waitrose though

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 8th August

    I doubt that - we are using Desso Grassmaster - it's a semi synthetic grass system grown offsite on fabric mats. Rolls of pre-grown turf on fabric are simply unrolled onto a prepared sand base

    Jadon Sancho

    My question is "what exactly could City do to stop Sancho talking to us & signing a 1st pro contract?" I'm thinking he clearly had no desire to come to Spurs, as there was nothing City could have done to stop him from doing so, if he wanted to sign for us, he could have, whether City liked it...

    Jadon Sancho

    This one has me confused... He had not yet signed a pro contract with City - hence we could simply of signed him up on a contract and a compensatory fee would have been decided at later date by an impartial tribunal. If he signed a pro-contract with another club, he would no longer be a 'City...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 19th July

    We need a ready-made 2nd Right back to complement Trippier, a natural right sided wide player who can beat people on the outside, hug the touchline and get in behind defences. Finally we need a striker that can realistically put pressure on Kane for his place in the side - the dutch lad is a...

    Tottenham Vs Bayer Leverkusen: Match Thread

    Not in the mood for articulate analysis. Just got back from Wembley.... WHAT THE F@$K WAS THAT???? Didn't press them effectively - in fact they pressed up high up exactly like we usually do. Passing was abysmal - no tempo to out play. Players looked tired, off the pace, uninterested and...

    If you had to sell one CM...

    We should NOT fall into the same trap as last summer - buying lots of average players that were no real improvement over what we already had in those areas. I want to see us making 1 or two marquee signings where there is no doubt that the player coming in is a clear step up in quality over the...

    If you had to sell one CM...

    I would not consider selling any of that quartet - Sandro / Capoue competing for the holding / destructive midfield role with Paulinho / Dembele competing for the box-to-box type role. That quartet is a sound central midfield with 2 decent players competing for each central midfield spot...
