    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    I said to friends that people might start criticising Vinicius after his first start, in a game where the whole team were poor, including Son. Maybe there were times he could have done better, but can anyone tell me how many through balls or crosses were put in to Vinicius? Where was the...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    Ndombele is a modern combination of Jay Jay Okocha and Yaya Toure i.e. the skill and technique he demonstrates , the way he runs and dribbles with the ball, the vision and clever use of the ball and his finishing, remind me of both of them. He is a unique player and what I like the most is how...

    Ins and Outs

    Realistically: In: None Out: Gedson - End Loan Rose - Contract Terminated I don't see much happening at all. Winks and Alli won't leave this month. The club will demand too much for Sanchez, but he might move in the summer. Unless some non-HG players are sold, I can't see any moves for the...

    Player Watch - Steven Bergwijn signs for Ajax

    Those so called Spurs fans should be utterly ashamed of themselves to spout such disgusting and completely unacceptable rubbish. It's really going to help his confidence slagging him off on social media. The death threats are sick and should ensure those people are banned. Bergwijn is having to...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    I'd like to add my name to those who didn't write him off. I knew he had quality and he has come into his own this season. We all have opinions and they can alter over time, as players improve, situations change and form fluctuates etc, that's football. A lot of the time we unaware of the all...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    Never doubted his ability, you could see it when he first joined, it was just getting the application, fitness and attitude right. He is working on it all the time and the only reason he comes off after 65 minutes now is because he is working hard and tracking back. The stamina will come and...

    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    When he gets a run of games then his finishing will improve, as well his timing of his runs behind the defence. It's difficult for him to get that due to Kane and Son, but even when he hasn't been scoring, he has looked lively, holds the ball up well, hss clever movement etc.

    Player watch: Toby Alderweireld

    He hasn't always been bad, he has played well at times. However, I don't think he has improved much in the last 4 years and even under Mourinho hasn't looked that comfortable. Whereas Dier and Alderweireld are showing signs of improvement and good form, Tanganga has great potential and Aurier...

    Vinny and Lucas chatting, well worth watching

    If there ever was a player I wanted to do well and to be a success at Spurs, it's Carlos Vinicius. I've seen enough in games to know he offers more than goals, ahwn those come, he'll be a major addition to the squad

    Match Threads WBA vs Spurs - Match Thread - Round 8

    I will be delighted when Vinicius scores his first goal, hopefully it will be soon. Once he gets the first one and plays even more minutes, I think more will come. It must be very difficult for him when he isn't get full games and still has to learn the language, but the signs are promising.

    Match Threads WBA vs Spurs - Match Thread - Round 8

    I think the idea of the two defensive midfielders is also to provide the defence with more cover. Hojbjerg sometimes drops into the defence and makes up a back three, which Dier used to do. Alongside Sissoko, this allows the likes of Reguilon and Doherty to get forward from the full back...

    Match Threads WBA vs Spurs - Match Thread - Round 8

    He is going to need a number of weeks and probably 6-7 games to get to full match fitness. We have to remember he has had no pre-season and still trying to get fitness, as well as match fitness. Ndombele struggled with this last season and Lo Celso is nowhere near the level he was last season...

    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    The one trait many fans have suffered from over the years, regardless of who the player is, is a lack of patience. If people are criticising Vinicius after just 3 games of 45 mins, two of which were away and Bergwijn who's not even been with us for 12 months, then that's up to them and I'll...

    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    Agree with this. He was knocking the ball down for others and bringing them into play. We can't know for sure, but if he had the likes if Lucas and Son making runs,it would have been better. I would have also like to have seen him play alongside Kane.

    Dele Alli at Everton

    At least you didn't call me Sandy:)

    Dele Alli at Everton

    I don't believe that is his only trait. He has a smart football brain and when he is in good form, he can see a pass and put in some clever through balls and and has good interplay with his teammates. His finishing can be better at times, but he has still scored a number of technically superb...

    Player watch: Toby Alderweireld

    Toby is class and I was surprised at the sentiment towards him in recent months, that he is way past it and will be sold at the end of the season. Personally I'd sell Sanchez and bring someone else with pace and height in to play alongside Alderweireld or Dier. Let's see what Inter would say if...

    Team v Royal Antwerp

    I can definitely see this as the team. Not sure Alderweireld is going to play 3 games in a row. The alternative is for Davies to play LCB instead of Dier again. but that will depend on Antwerp's forward line. This could be the time for Alli to show what he can do, along with the other 3 in...

    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    I'm sure when he's had more game time he'll ti.e his runs better, but considering he's not been here that long and doesn't speak much English, he did well and at least he was making those runs and showing clever movement. He may have got 2 assists, but could have had 3 more, which is a fact...

    Match Threads Spurs vs West Ham - Match Thread

    I agree. We also have new players in the team and squad, so we can't keep blaming the same individuals all the time. 9 players have joined since January, that a big difference to the squad and players with winning mentalities. Mourinho can take some blame to an extent, but these kind of...
