What's up with all these exotic, three-part names?

I always used to daydream as a kid that I'd be a spurs player and do that against the scum one day.

Love that.

He likes a good boogie as well when celebrating.

Blimey, I know it's YouTube but this kid looks quality!

Seriously quick, two footed and can deliver a cross. Perfect combination of skills we need for the LWF position. Someone like this would be a massive upgrade on Chadli.

I agree. Two footedness is such a valuable quality for a footballer to have. Add to that his pace and delivery, and he's exactly the sort of player we need to balance the team. 6 goals and 3 assists in 13 appearances in his first proper season in ligue 1.

Pace, technique and delivery from the flanks (plus the ability to chip in with goals), a better finisher than we currently have in the middle, Eriksen playmaking from behind the striker, and we'll start actually causing opposition teams problems

Totally agree.

Pace is so lacking from our team, so we need that but it has to be coupled with creativity.

Bringing in someone like this for LWF, with Lamela and Walker on the right, will give our team so much more balance and threat.

Looks very accomplished, both feet and good with his head. Seems brave as well, not worried about putting his head in where he might get hurt.
Good player for £8million.

He's got that low centre of gravity thing going for him. Always liked that in a footballer and this kid's got an ass like J-Lo.

Not only is that harsh, but I think a case of the grass is always greener. Ntep this season has 6 goals and 5 assists in a little over 1200 minutes, playing against Ligue 1 teams (and only a half hour against PSG) who are mostly pretty crap. Chadli has 6 goals and 2 assists in less than 1000 minutes playing in a much tougher league. To say that with a straight swap Ntep would be doing much better is quite an ambitious claim; in fact I think Chadli would completely dominate mid-table Ligue 1 competition.

That being said, I do like the idea of a young pacy winger who gives us a very different look to either Eriksen or Chadli. This kid could become everything we had hoped Townsend would be when he came back from QPR. If the tiny release clause is true then why not go for it.

I don't really rate Chadli. This is the sticking point here.

Gets in on the goals, but does so whilst floating in and out of games. I don't think I've ever seen him put a full back on his arse. He carries so little fear factor.

IMO we need more pace and direct threat from the flanks. We'll create more chances and stretch the pitch for Eriksen to have more room.
