Wiki has him as being 5ft8in.

Me being a pedant aside I thought he looked quite good against limited opposition. Would like to see him get more game time coming off the bench in the PL to see if he can develop further.
The Official Tottenham Hotspur Handbook for 2013-14 has him at 183cm, which is a tad over 6ft. His weight is given at 74Kg, which is just over 11 and a half stone, and his date of birth is 10.10.92, which makes him 21.

Let me this right from what some of the posts suggests: Fredericks, converted from RM to RB, should- after 1 full game as RB where he played well + be re-onverted back to RM....while RB Adam Smith should be converted to a LB....so the much malinged Naughtoun can keep his RB back up spot....which leaves Fryers... oh never mind ;)


yip, too many fifa and pes players on here

He did well. Tidy footballer, as you'd expect, and seemed to have confidence from the get go which is usually the main stumbling block with younger players. Amirite in thinking he started against assnal in the cup a couple of yrs back? Sandro's debut game. If the player I'm thinking about was him, he looked pretty good back then as well.

Whether he makes it or not with us is anyone's guess.

I thought the most impressive thing was his delivery which did look pretty good.

I think rapid full-backs are a dime-a-dozen but ones who can actually deliver once they get into dangerous areas are few and far between.

Might be tricky for him at Spurs though because Walker seems to be improving by the week, but the lad is still very young and let's just hope he can keep progressing.

I think he's a got a good shot because of his speed - we're so used to it with Walker now that anyone who is gonna come in and push Walker for his place will need to have some of that in his bag and this kid has got it.

Got a feeling that that performance thrilled Levy.

Checked the official site (we all know how reliable that is) and it states he's 1.9m so which is it?

He looked useful. Needs to hit the gym if he has any future in the prem. he's built like a child.

He did look useful indeed. We must bring these guys into more competitive matches. Mind right full backs are not a problem for us.

Oh and I dont see Danny back for the pool.

he is a growing lad, must be about 7 foot by now!

I would go with the OS.
The Official Tottenham Hotspur Handbook would have been printed a while back so data will be out dated.

Weird, he looked a lot taller than that - unless Anzi just had a couple of midgets playing on their left.

EDIT: Actually read the other posts now, makes more sense.

He's about 6 foot and 10-10.5 stone. According to my official eyeballs.

I don't know if it's been mentioned here or noted but I saw Soldado applaud him on about 4 separate occasions. He either appreciated his style / play or was trying to encourage him as a youngster (or possibly both). Either way I think he can be pretty happy with how he performed.

Very impressed by him last night. He got forward well, put in some great crosses and won the penalty (even if he was a bit lucky with the decision). He also covered well at the back, especially when he cut out that cross that he put out for a corner.

As others have mentioned it was great to see the other players supporting him. Soldado scoring the penalty and then going straight over to congratulate him shows what a great team spirit there is at the club.

Yeah I saw that too. One in particular was where he whipped in a ball (not the one Soldado got his head on to) and Soldado straight away applauded him and encouraged him to keep going. Nice to see our more experienced players helping out and getting behind the youngsters.

This one thousand times. That's my big pet peeve when it comes to Defoe. He's our veteran, and should be doing stuff like that. Instead he's acting like a grumpy old man if a youngster tries something and fails.

You know, I really do forget that Defoe is 31 now. Time flies. :eek:

I've just been speaking to a Middlesborough fan and he believes that we have a future England international on our hands.

Aparts from the commercial side of things, I don't understand the purchase of Yedlin when we have a player who's already better than him on our books.

I have a feeling that he'll be fighting and winning the fight for the right back birth.
