    Tosin Adarabioyo

    Sorry but i have to disagree. I see a fair bit of him and although overall he's a decent defender, his short passing just isn't good enough to play for us. His long, right to left pings are decent - but we don't play like that. A recent example is the Sheff United game where he's basically...

    Tottenham want to sign Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer this summer

    I wouldn't fear anyone coming in for our players, very doubtful anyone could afford the price Levy would ask for Romero, VdV, Udogie, Sarr etc

    Tottenham want to sign Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer this summer

    Several more links to him this past few days, even Ally Gold said the other day that we are still interested. I'll stick to my guns and suggest it's utter nonsense that we are strongly interested in him - he cannot play out from the back as we'd want him to (he CAN play long cross field passes...

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Only just seen this and had to respond - can't have that at all, i'd say Son is now more clinical than he's ever been and definitely our best player. Nobody is coming in that's better than him.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Good shout. I was speaking to my Fulham born father this morning and i specifically talked about this kid as his recent performances have been really good and he is now looking a proper PL forward. I reckon at the rate he's improving he'll be signing for a top 6/7 club in the next couple of...

    Tottenham want to sign Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer this summer

    I was all for this during the summer (pre VdV) although i couldn't see it happening given he reportedly wanted to leave Fulham to play more football (he was sharing the position with Diop and played something like 25 games last season). Having watched him closely since he returned from injury i...

    The Naming Rights Thread

    This is how i understood it as well - although the naming rights was obviously seen as a very lucrative thing to have, they've been slightly surprised to see that it's actually been very lucrative having the 'brand' recognition of Tottenham Hotspur associated with all the events, rather than a...

    The Naming Rights Thread

    Yep just seen that, assume as he's been put on gardening leave it's him leaving for another job rather than personal reasons ?

    Antonio Nusa

    Pretty sure Ally Gold said the price wasn't a problem for us and that the kid chose Brentford over us because it was felt Spurs (or another club of our size) might be too big a leap and stunt his development. I'm not saying who is right and who is wrong btw but obviously they are two very...

    Player Watch: Bryan Gil

    Boo. I don't know why, i just really like him and have an irrational desperation for him to succeed with us even though i can 100% see that he hasn't shown enough to warrant much game time. Some sort of sell on clause a must you'd hope !

    Match Threads Spurs vs Man City - FA Cup 4th Round

    Personally thought City looked right back to their best yesterday and think they will now go on their usual '2nd half of season' run and win the title. While we definitely didn't play quite as well as i think we could have done, i don't think we played at all badly in the context of City simply...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    If you're the sort of person that worries about things you have no control over, then i'd be far more concerned about his persistent cough than him leaving for Liverpool !

    Player Watch: Bryan Gil

    I know i'll be very much in the minority here but i'm quite pleased by this. I like his attitude on the pitch, always moving and wanting the ball. He's looked better the past few games (yeah, it's a low bar i know). If he's happy to be a squad player and will continue to show the same...

    Lloyd Kelly

    Glad someone else picked up on this point as i've seen it mentioned plenty of times. Massive difference playing as a left (or right back) in our system than in a traditional back 4 - my hunch is that he can't play there in our system and we will definitely be looking for a back up to Udogie in...
