Tottenham are planning to offer Kieran Trippier a new deal as reward for his progress, sources close to the club have told ESPN FC.

Joint most assists for a defender in the league, despite playing 4.5 times less mins than the next lowest.

I'd imagine his assists would go up if he was designated set piece taker.

Stats don't tell the whole store Rose and Walker on top form push teams back and impose themselves on the opposition and have the speed to recover and defend against top opposition. Trippier was exposed against Martial and to be honest it worried me.

I think with a bit more regular time in team and continuing under Poch's tutelage he should improve on that.

A big plus for Walker was that he was the size of a centre back playing at right back but not to detriment of his incredibly pace al athleticism.

Trippier isn't a small lad either and is actually bigger than Rose surprisingly.

I never said they did. What does Martial doing well v Trippier have to do with assists?

Top three are all Spurs right-backs, I love it.

Pretty sure Trippier is the smallest player in our first team. Seen it referenced a few times on instagram live as there used to be banter at him and Carroll for it.

just pointing out that the RB/RWB position is more than about assists

Yeah I thought he was a lot smaller too, maybe wiki fucked up?

Might have a look on transfermarkt or failing that track him down with a tape measure.

 

[tiger666]

Rose is shorter

 

[DJS]

Rose is shorter

So I don't need to chase Trippier around with a tape measure after all then...?

So what's the final say .trippier is defo shorter than eriksen who I think is 5 9 1/2 .imo trippier is about 5 9 .but I did see the other day dani Alves is only 5 7 1/2

Pretty sure that's wrong .i specifically looked at him and eriksen in hull goal celebration and eriksen is defo taller .saying that eriksen hair prob gives him about 3 inches haha

For me he's a far better player than Walker, who is criminally over-rated IMO. Delighted to see Trippier getting more regular playing time.

I think we really would suit three at the back with Trippier and Rose as wing-backs...also would also cash in on Walker for the right money, which I think might happen.

I like trips, but out of both of them Walker is the better player.

Eriksen is 6 ft pal. Trippier is 5 ft 10.

EFA.

No chance either of those are right. Trippier is tiny. Eriksen is probably 5'9 or 10.

He's a good inch shorter than Tom Carroll here.
