Alas, the theatre doesn't offer much these days. Would still stick to Spurs than the crap they show in the cinema or theatre.

this is silly....we have the England RB, Aurier and a top English youth RB!

Upon reflection I agree RB I'm probably being overly harsh with, I stand by the rest of my onion though. I bid you a very good evening madam.

Can you say that but have we gotten exceptional play from our RB position in a year? I wouldn't say so, the top 2 players are wildly inconsistent and KWP yes seems promising but he still hasn't been given enough time to truly show how he can play in a consistent run of games. I'd hardly say RB is a position that we couldn't upgrade upon.

It's not a position in need to upgrade considering there's not many players out there who will be guaranteed instant successes at RB, unlike midfield where we almost know that there are a few players who will improve us in that area.

Our options right now at RB generally have upsides to them, if we need to look at upgrading a full back area than it's LB if anything.

I agree with the bolded but I don't see why we can't say we shouldn't try to upgrade or should be happy with our RB position. We need to be better on both sides.

I'd rather use the tried and tested formula of player improvement personally which looks to be happening with Serge and we have Trippier as an option if we play with 3 at the back and KWP waiting in the wings.

No need to buy yet another player especially as they are as likely to settle as 'quick' as Serge has, seems a bit pointless, repeat cycle etc...

I'm fine with giving Serge more time, all I wanted to put out there that I don't think its fair to say we're concretely set at RB.

We're lacking in production from both sides at fullback.

Almost forgot - those shirts looked terrible on TV - green, with the green pitch as the background.

I agree. Our attempts at buying ready made replacements rarely work out.

Our success has been buying relatively young players and developing and integrating them into the team.

We have Sánchez as a replacement for Alderweireld. My concern is we are not currently developing a player to take over from Dembele.
