Which is why they would't take it.They'd be pretty dumb not to take that deal in my opinion.
I read some people saying they hope Poch will coach Townsend to do this and that but you can't coach intelligence. Chadli, Eriksen and Lamela are intelligent, flowing, intricate players who CAN do a variety of things. Townsend does offer something different off the bench but he's never going to be anything special. It's clearly Levy's decision to keep him and sacrifice Morgan and I think this is a big risk
Tbf I shouldn't have said "clearly his decision" when I'm just speculating. I presumed it wouldn't be Poch as it's his man so automatically went Levy. However it could just as easily be there end, especially the way they've been this window. Very unsettledThat's a bit of an unfair assumption. How do you know that it's Levy.
Levy is like the parent of a teenager (the teenager being us). Every decision he makes is met with critisism, but as time passes, we tend to see that he's not that stupid after all.That's a bit of an unfair assumption. How do you know that it's Levy.
I have said this again he is a poor mans Arron Lennon - and that says it all. If someone wants him for 10 mil plus bite their hands off as they are madCan we please get rid of this over hype player?
He was shit before the injury too. Cant score. Cant assist. All he does is run forward then shoot into row z from outside the box. He's just not a good footballer by any stretch of the imagination.He's clearly not got any confidence back since his injury. You could see how frustrated he was when he was subbed a few times after he'd come back. He was playing his best footy before and in a flow state of mind feeling invincible. He thought he was the new Gareth Bale and even though he kept saying he needed to keep his feet on the ground and just play his football, I think the hype got to him and he had an inflated opinion of himself. Now he's coming crashing back down to reality and he's desperate and not at ease with himself at all.
Townsend's been a player i wanted gone loooong before today. Shit player is shit.Yes, let us vent all of our frustrations on Townsend for this game despite him coming on with the side being 2-0 down.
The common theme from this game, and our other matches against top sides in this league over the past year, is a central midfield with absolutely zero bite that exerts zero control over a match. You have to actively ponder if they contributed anything to the match after these end.

That's a little harsh on the chap. Hindsight is fine and i'm well aware of his assist stats etc, but when he was at QPR he looked on fire and full of promise. He believed in himself and now he doesn't. Blame the hype of the England goal he scored if anything. I mean the amount of non Tottenham fans that were asking me around that time about him and saying how good he was at the time was totally OTT and annoying, but is that really his fault?He was shit before the injury too. Cant score. Cant assist. All he does is run forward then shoot into row z from outside the box. He's just not a good footballer by any stretch of the imagination.
