Random and fairly pointless fact: Taylor Moore, a member of the England U17 squad for this current tournament, currently plays for RC Lens, but is a big Spurs fan.

Now you know!

Be interesting to see whether our first sight of him will actually be in the u19 tournament at the end of this month.
Hope so!!

'Stewart, who spent a month on loan at Crewe Alexandra two seasons ago, sandwiched a trial at Liverpool in between two spells at Sheffield United training complex towards the end of last term'.

Apparantly likely to sign for a PL club after turning down Sheffield United

Not sure why we are letting him go as Spurs are VERY short of decent defenders in the 18-21 age group, I'd gladly have him in a Europa League squad next season for example to rest some of the first team..
Maybe that American DC (currently at Arsenal) chose to sign for us after all?

Nice little article ahead of the Terborg Tournament, with some positive mentions for Spurs. Google gave a fairly rough translation, but I've tried to tidy it up.

Feyenoord are a participant in the Terborg. The English club Tottenham Hotspur will also end May to attend the prestigious Terborg Tournament in Gelderland. It is the third time that the highest youth team in London gives an appearance at the renowned international A youth tournament. Feyenoord Rotterdam is also the best and highest youth team travel to Terborg to participate in the 35th edition.

"We strive for the right variety of playing styles at the Terborg Tournament", tournament director Rob Gudden said. "Therefore we are very pleased with the participation of an exponent of the London football metropolis. The Spurs are nicely on the road of youth football, and had in recent years with Gareth Bale, of course, a textbook example of a top young player in their ranks . The previous times the team participated in the Terborg Tournament we liked very well". "We are also , after several years of absence, very pleased with the return of Feyenoord. They have not fallen in recent years for anything in the prices as the best youth in the Netherlands." The youth of the top club in Rotterdam are this year led by former professional footballer and goal poacher Roy Makaay. The Terborg Tournament has long been known for the strong participation of South American teams. The last three years Cruzeiro were focusing on first, which the Brazilians were able to achieve . The Terborg Tournament is Friday 30 and Saturday, May 31 and Sunday, June 1st held at the Sports Complex Paasberg in Terborg .



It's nice to see our reputation as a good team for youth football is reaching over Europe.
