Player Watch: Kieran Trippier

[yankspurs]

I can’t handle this guy in a spurs shirt anymore I’ve never ever hated one of our players

But this guy...is getting so close

When he blamed Foyth for his massive fuck ups at Wolves that was it for me with him. Finger pointing, ego maniac. And he’s also a no good, horrible, very bad player on top of that.

The World Cup has gone to his head

 

[dtxspurs]

Even the people who are just kind of lukewarm on him always say "he's useful in a back three vs. lower half opposition". Back to back games against Fulham & Crystal palace in a back three and terrible once again.

Yep. It was up to Poch to bring him back down and instead, he starts him all the time despite him being awful.

How was KWP fantastic? He refused to cross the ball and constantly came back onto his right foot and was easily closed off. Our left hand side was pathetic.

He’s not left footed and he’s not a LB. It’s unfair to have a go at him for wanting to cut back and cross on his right side.

Trippier simply hasn’t been good enough for a few seasons now. I’m quite happy to sell him, throw KWP in the deep end and reinvest the money elsewhere.

 

[St José Dominguez]

If we wanted to sell him we’re messing things up by keeping on playing him. Can’t see many clubs wanting to pay much for a soon to be 29 got a few assists against dross international sides at World Cup once mid table right back to be honest. With way we value players we could end up stuck with him. If Poch keeps refusing to give KWP a shot right back is quickly becoming nearly as important as CM for me in summer.

Just because he cant use his left, doesnt allow him to use his hands instead.

Spot on. Sell, sell, sell.

KWP has to start RB trippier needs a rest and kwp deserves a chance now and don’t let trippier ever take another penalty

 

[rossdapep]

Not good enough for what we are aspiring for and I yearn for the dynamism we had in our full backs from 15-17.

Make that a priority and phase Trippier out.

 

[Zippy1980]

We would get Peanuts for him now. The time to sell was in the summer when his stock was high. I would sell get rid though.

 

[spids]

Not his fault he’s playing out of position. If he’s at right back he can whip balls in with his favoured foot. Defensively he was solid (apart from the pen)

I get it’s not his fault he was played out of position but he was far from fantastic. He was in fact pretty crap.

No, he's still and England International and a competent right back, if we sold him he'd go for at least £20m

But are you saying KWP was fantastic today? Because he wasn’t. If he’s not going to play on the right he shouldn’t play as he’s a crap LB.

I wasn’t having a go at KWP and I was simply questioning someone who said he was fantastic today.

Harry is not around any longer to take our dud’s at a over inflated price.

He was probably the best of a bad bunch which is saying something seeing as he was playing out of position.

Would much rather KWP on the right from now on, I don't see the point of playing Trippier anymore.

Gylfi Siguarddson was bought for £50m last summer, the reason...TV money

TV money will push his price up and of course Levy tax.

I couldn’t disagree more, but there you go

 

[Paolo10]

Why don't you head into the KWP thread and sing his praises?

Spread a little joy sure.
