Player Watch: Davinson Sanchez

[cockerel downunder]

Having this extra pace in the back 3 will really help us cope with the bigger Wembley pitch and still maintain our high defensive line. Very strategic signing imho

Thanks for spoiling the last episode of Game of Thrones.

I don't geddit???

Sanchez and Aurier would give us some serious pace at the back. Might even be up to Dier's CB/CM role. Great option to have in the squad.

@$hoguN - thanks for your intelligent input.

@cockerel downunder - you talked about the last episode in the ITK thread. Anyway, I'm joining countless others and sticking you on ignore as you obviously don't get it.

Ah Ok I guess I got the time zones a bit mixed up forgot you guys wouldn't have seen it yet. I don't think I gave anything away but apologies nonetheless it certainly wasn't intentional.

Discussing game of thrones in ITK thread??

Talk about leaving dangerously both in terms of the spoilering and point non-ITK in the most (rightly) modded thread in forum!!!

They all die!

I'm intrigued by how he'll maybe slot into a back three.

Will he be the sweeper-style player sandwiched between Vertonghen and Alderweireld or play right side to add some pace there (although if Aurier comes in and gets the nod that might not be such an issue).

Also I'm a little aprehensive as he appears to be potentially a very very good centre back but I can see us being a stepping stone for him given how quickly he went through Ajax and tha the Spanish big boys are already eyeing him.

Hopefully the Poch influence and the fact next year we'll be in our new stadium should swing things.

Poch also has said that once transfer window shut Levy will be concentrating on current player contract improvements so hopefully we'll sort all that out too and shut likes of Rose up.

Will be interesting to see how Dier fits in as well - I know it's a squad game etc but if everyone fit and on form and Sanchez does settle in we could possibly see:

Lloris

Alderweireld Sanchez Vertonghen

Aurier Wanyama Dembele Rose

Dele Eriksen

Kane

(Aurier picked if we get him as a bit nippier although Trippier will probably play)

 

[stevenurse]

Is he going to be available fot Sunday? Sure I read something about his work permit not being through yet

 

[Krule]

Seems to be settling in very nicely according to this article and great picture....

Got work permit. Available for tomorrow! Yay.

 

[mark87]

Great news. He'll start on the bench though.

add Rose and its lightning....Aurier is pretty quick not sure if he's Walker power speed (Walker had for us freakish pace power up and down that right side)

 

[HildoSpur]

Probably will start on the bench however it wouldn't shock me to see him start. Poch appears to be overjoyed that we got him.

He's had a couple of days of training - missed the last week of training at Ajax, and will be off to Colombia for the break.

I think his first start will be in the Cup match.

 

[FootballWhispers]

Hi guys, we've done a piece on his tactical diversity and how he'll be a welcome addition to the squad.

Sánchez give Pochettino and Tottenham tactical diversity

Hope you enjoy it.

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Looked brilliant today. He's going to be a legend

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

That's what worries me. Immensely.

Don't see why. Wanyama is a better DM than him all day long. And i'm pretty sure Poch agrees with me.
