The Spurs Youth Thread - 2018/19

Ex Spurs news: Midfielder Joe Pritchard has left Bolton and joined Accrington.

Hey, @IGSpur did you know that Thimothee Lo'Tatula and Eddie Carrington-Alberdi both joined us from Brentford when they closed their academy down? I already knew that Dermi Lusala did but had never heard that about the other two. The list of talent that Brentford let go is astonishing. A good 80 to 90% have been snapped up by the top clubs.

Here's the article for anyone interested. Its an extremely good read.

Anyone think at the start of this season that George Marsh would be ending the season with a UCL finalist medal?

I’m pretty sure Nile John was picked up from Brentford as well.

I vaguely remember this being discussed before. I'm pretty sure it was established John wasn't. He's been at the club for quite a while

Oh, I’m basing this on his transfer history on Transfermarkt (link below), who are often very trustworthy, but I trust your own knowledge.

Who is actually out of contract from the U23 group ?

Apparently we are one of the clubs looking at Liam Cullen at Swansea again, 20 year old striker was rated very highly a few years back but lost his way almost signed for Arsenal 14 months ago.

Crazy really would rather us be looking at James and Rodon.

But we seem to have some deal with Swansea or good relations at board level as I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of our youngsters end up there again next year.

Isn't the Dan James deal to Man Utd already done?

Interesting stuff on KWP in the sessegnon thread. He doesn't want to go out on loan and doesn't want to leave

J’Neill Bennett has done a ‘Reo Griffiths’ and posted himself inhaling Nitrous Oxide from a balloon on his Snapchat story.

Silly boy.

He's having a laugh

He'll definitely get called into the headmasters office. What a doofus. He's probably earned himself 12 months of probation and exclusion from first team training.

I doubt any staff at the club would see it, as it was on Snapchat, not Instagram like Reo Griffiths’ (who had over 10,000 followers at the time) live video, and it hasn’t been reported by any sports media outlets.

Jack roles signed new deal

Get innnn! He score goals!

Should get a fair shot to show is quality on the preseason tour.

 

[SpursD22]

Jack Roles score goals

So happy right now, hopefully he can get some minutes in the cups and train with the first team next season. He’s not really good at anything but he’s a smart player

Unfortunately I do have the feeling that he only signed a contract so we could get some money when we sell him
