The Argentine may be a liability on the ball but his aerial brilliance, organisation and positioning would improve Spurs’ shoddy defence.

IMO it wouldnt make any difference which right-sided CB plays at the moment, the problem is at RB.

Got to agree.
Not so much he's better or worse than Dier or Verts, more we need someone to organise and command which just isn't happening at the moment.
We look totally disorganised and weak.

considering poch was a centre half - our back four all season has been embarrassing
who coaches the back 4? do we need a defensive coach, most probably
our positional discipline is beyond poor (walker especially)
season in season out, sort this out or yet again no top 4
we also need a leader, captain type of player to organise
hummels at dortmund is class but we won't get him

Walker just seems to be on a very bad run of form and surely can't be selected for a while. I'd put Chiriches or Dier there depending if we need Fazio for those heading away duties.

On paper, Spurs’ next two opponents Burnley and Aston Villa should be beaten

The same Burnley that beat Man City and the resurgent Villa with a manager who will want to prove something, nah.
BTW lets give some credit to Danny Rose as he has been mentioned in the article. One of our most consistent performers at the moment.

Fazio should now play a starting CB position. We are up against teams who are not taking it easy, and will be in our faces all 90 mins every game from now. DIer needs a rest and to absorb the lessons so far in PL. Walker to be dropped, far too many errors over last 9 games or so. Vlad makes errors, but not as much as Kyle...If Kaboom is fit put him in at RB.. he can do a job there...remember??

Good point re Younes at RB.
