The Spurs Youth Thread - 2018/19

[Hotspur_Hero]

Oscar Jansson- playing GK for Orebro in Sweden
Cameron Lancaster- playing in the US (2nd division, but scoring a lot)
Milos Veljkovic- playing for Werder Bremen
Jack Munns- playing for Dagenham
Jordan Archer- playing for Millwall

The others, Carroll, Mason, Kane you know all about

Cam just signed with Nashville and will be playing in the MLS pretty soon. Be interesting to see if can carry that form over. Players moving up to the MLS from the USL/NASL have been really hit or miss.

If you want to be a successful CL team and challenge for title you really do need two xi and that’s even before injuries. If you can have 3 or 4 talented kids around the squad it’s a massive bonus.

Any one seen him play? Better than we already have in the youth teams?

I think 1.5 millions a bargain I’ve only YouTubed him but 1.5 million his a London boy, even if it doesn’t work out he will score goals and improve at spurs he would be wotprh 10 million with a few appearances surely. Cardiff City are after him so he is wanted.

 

[coys200]

Love this type of signings tbh we haven’t made one for ages.

 

[Luka Van der Bale]

I think he’s entered the poch zone. Or they may have let him go home early to Ireland for Xmas.

PL Cup tends to be a rotated team. BLF, Shashoua, Bowden, Bennett also absent.

Sign him and loan him back to them for rest of the season.

Maja, eze, or obafemi from soton would be good options if we want to bring in a young attacking player. I liked brereton last season but since joining blackburn he seems to have disappeared.

I doubt that would work otherwise he would have signed a contract in the first place I’m sure he wants to move up as well as more money.

 

[Flashspur]

I’d bring Edwards back in January give him Nkoudou squad place and just see what happens. Nothing to lose really for him or us. We might get some easy FA cup games he can feature in.

I love reading the crap you post sometimes. It’s entertainment

So if we got a couple of injuries to our front 6 what are our bench attacking options ? You telling me Edwards isn’t a better option than Nkoudou or anyone else in the academy ? I’d still have Edwards over Roles who’d probably be first in line.

There are other options in our accademy, I want Edwards to succeed as much as anyone at spurs but let’s not forget there are a lot of other players. Sometimes it’s easier, scrap that it is a lot easier to succeed if you have a tonne of pace or physically your big over technically great but small.

Who ? As an AM/winger are you having over Edwards ?

I’m not saying we have a better technician but we do have other options, Edson and IG would be better to give names.

There has def been a shift to focus solely on young English local lads in our accademy bar the odd keeper we seem to have moved away from foreign young players. I think John Mc did say we had problems I take it loosing a few to German clubs prob changed our recruiting.

From the bits and pieces I’ve seen recently, Roles could take Dele’s role. The problem for Edwards is we don’t have anyone who plays his role in our starting lineup. Lucas maybe? Just try looking at the goals we’ve scored recently, and ask yourself where Edwards would have been involved.

Still, if it were up to me, I’d have Edwards back just for the hell of it.

 

[Blake Griffin]

other than edwards there's only roles and shashoua really, we have a few bubbling under in the u18s but they're not close to being ready yet.

Edwards will always get my backing right up to the day when and if he was to leave Spurs,Reasons why because I like to watch him play regardless of what he can and cannot do.

Edwards played OK at u23 level scored goals and setup loads of chances for others and with the very few chances he got with the first team he done well in them games as well.

Roles cannot be far from the first team Squad playing the way he is now,the problem he has is the options we have in front of him are so good long term it might be hard for him.

I would like to see Roles replace Son when he heads off If we was not to buy any players because he can cover a number of positions and would deserve his chance.

Markanday is worth a shout some point down the line and it will be very interesting to see how he does over the next few years

Long way down the road we should also be looking at Bennett who is a joy to watch and has the right attitude,for example he will get angry with himself for F**king up a cross but he will not let it affect him he just keeps going and will always try and beat the player in front of him with his Son like footwork.

To give a answer to the question Roles is the only player that might be ready and as @Blake Griffin has just mentioned Sam shashoua is a good player as well.

What about the Shashoua brothers?

A Shashoua is a very good player who has had a very good season so far but is still very young.
