Squad for Tournoi International de Monthey

[jondesouza]

Our Academy has sent a team to the Tournoi International de Monthey in Switzerland which we've won two times on the trot. Our squad this time is:
1) Jordan Archer
2) Cameron Lancaster
3) Calum Butcher
4) Sam Cox
5) Olumide Durojaiye
6) Zaine Francis-Angol
7) Massimo Luongo (Australian triallist)
8) Ryan Mason
9) Paul-José M'Poku
10) Jake Nicholson
11) Kudus Oyenuga
12) Jamie Butler
13) Sheldon Stevens (Striker, from our partnership with Supersport United in South Africa)
14) Alex Pritchard
15) Adam Smith
16) Callum Tapping
17) Nathan Byrne
18) Mbuso Manyoni (Midfielder, from our partnership with Supersport United in South Africa)

Interesting to see the two South African lads are travelling - not sure if that's as part of an official Spurs trial though.

There's also a few 2nd Year lads not going (Ekim, O'Neill, Carroll and Jack) so I don't know if that's an indication they're going to be released. I would be surprised if Carroll was but the other three have hardly featured this year so that wouldn't be so much of a shocker.

Who should we look out for? Will it be shown anywhere?

Don't think it is being shown. Of our players, the ones I'm most interested in are the two South African lads - be interesting to see how well they slot in.

Luongo's been here since March. I think he's more than a trialist now.

What has happened to Fredericks? Has he picked up an injury?

 

[JustDoggy]

We lost our first match 5-0 to Boca Juniors. Thats got to be the biggest hammering the lads have had in one of these international comps?

You might well be right about Luongo.

Fredericks picked up an injury not long after he made it onto the first team bench and has been out ever since.

Ouch. Do you know if there is a match report anywhere?

Now a report on the official site: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/articles/lads-defeated-in-monthey-opener-200510.html

To be fair to our lot some of our best eligible players (Caulker, Townsend, Bostock, Parrett, Kane) aren't there.

Cheers fellas. Have some rep

Why is Harry Kane not in the squad...?

Yay my first chance to be a genuine ITK!

Harry Kane had an operation to repair a small hole in his heart - this was picked up in his medical with us but not picked up on by the goons when he was at their academy:roll:

the operation was a success and he should be fit for the start of the season

No, no they didn't. :grin:

(Although if we win the tournament I fully expect that to be the headline on the official site!)
