owl sees all Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 TBH, I think a lot of these clubs have got it wrong. All these top players start of as youngsters, then teenagers, then youths. These clubs need to invest far more in their scouting system. If the lad doesn't cut the mustard then so be it. But! how much scouting can be done for 50m. A lot more than is presently the case.

Way your gonna get managers to use more youth is for them to know that doin so won't increase the risk of losin their jobs ... If a manager loses.7 plus games on the bounce he's GONE .. so given that bedding in a good youngun involves risk and possibly a few bad results and there's an option that reduces that risk. ie buying 'proven' talent. If your jobs on the line . your gonna take the lower risk option.. for footballs sake arguably it's the wrong thing to do, but I know I would take it and I'm sure 99% of others would if being honest. Give managers enuf time and security to try a youngster out knowin that it wouldn't put his job at risk / cost him his job, so maybe changing managers ONLY in transfer windows like players... Or better still only pre season. Edited August 18, 2020 by 3 minus 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... The media have it that he's never really recovered from pep dropping him... But plenty of keepers recovered from a dropping arguably maybe none quite as high profile as him but hey what ever anyone says or picks holes in his performance you can't take his medals or caps away .. .. last season the Burnley keeper s shirt was arguably one if not the most competative shirts to get . they seemed awash with decent keepers... So maybe 2/3rd choise atm is about right for him atm .. though I would have thought that a toppish end championship would have been better ,. At least he'd play... But who knows what his train of thought is. Elongate his career on the bench?? Money talking? Prefers the 'top end' training facilities/prem set up? Who knows. Keepers are a bit of a Law into themselves ... Vorn for eg always thought he was wasted sitting on the bench for so long a decent enuf keeper could have held a.low end prem spot down, But from a spurs perspective it's not a thing terrible to have half way decent competetion for the backup keepers spot.. and who knows how the seasons gonna pan out...

3 minus 2 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) So looks like Doherty from wolves@ right bac.. looked ok last season... But then so did the whole of the wolves team.. bit of a break from our norm transfer dealin.. trad wise we buy young, loan them out have them as bac u ect ec when improved use them . at 28 this guy's should be the 'finished' article.. no denying that aurier needs to go.. hes a defensive liability, fucs up constantly bit like walker when he was with us.. pace gets him out of situs... Any way ALL that's needed now is a lhs CB .. and we are good to trot.. given our fixture congestion in sept we double need to be..

3 minus 2 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 After beating reading 4.0. a dominant possecion based 1.0 win against birmingham . well struck v late winner by bergy.. whos lookin a touch leaner than last season... Nothing drawn from this game .. just minutes against a solid defensive unit that Birmingham is, captained by ex Exeter George friend... if he was 6 years younger and him bein a lhs centralish defender he could do a job for us... Anyways no obvious injuries and more minutes .. so hapi days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see Mori 'playing the game' putting a bit of pressure on levy to get a striker . King or deeney either or would do a decent job IMO Still think we need a.lhs center bac.. though I often wondered why poch never used Davies there... He does ok for wales... HAS to be better than our right footed options.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 minus 2 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) The best team won this after ... Can't think of one of our players that put in decent shift let Alone a decent performance ... Flat all around.. 2 decent chances in the 1st half but second half NOTHING.. dont think we tested Pickford let alone stretched the back four or closed them down effectively and at 1.0 Down that's the very least you'd expect. As for their goal ..... diet.. <deleted>!!! The word is JUMP, for someone who profes's 2 b a CB and an England contender <deleted> POOR ... overall we didn't show enuf urgency didn't press well just All-round very poor..

3 minus 2 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) Didn't see the interview but Hapi to see our manager agrees with me.. though he was a little more specific.. Kane still looks around 70 %match fit.. he really could /should be doing 70,ishmins esp when we're winning. But there's no one on our books that would be reliably effective in that role.. and imo a lhs CB is as big a need as a no 9. Diet. Struggles at RHS cb...... Let alone playin on his wrong side... It's a weakness that needs addressing.. if I can see it im abso sure prem managers paid mils will and WILL exploit it..v v easy to do put a fast right footer on him and at some point he'll be turned As he was, sadly, for england...

jastheace Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 a poor start. not the first time. will come ok in the end. just ok though. fingers crossed for top 6, should be easy. dodgy season though for all teams with restricted income from gates, but will they still spend on new players? spurs should have a good enough team if they can afford to keep the status quo going. fingers crossed. tightly crossed.
