Who was the last actual school aged kid to play regular minutes for Spurs?

Good question...not sure if Ally dingdong would be 'regular' minutes but he played a few times in '84 (UEFA Cup Final)...there hasn't been a Rooney story that I can recall...Ledley made his debut at 18, does he count? Good question...

Debut at 18 but not a regular until 21.

I’d just love us to have a Rooney, Owen type talent come through.
 
Oliver Skipp balanced breaking into our 1st team squad whilst taking his A-levels.

He got an A in Economics and a B in History.

I bet Ben Davies locked him in his room and made him study :tearsofjoy:
 
I hope we're looking at a no 10, bit worrying that Maddison hasn't played a single minute of pre-season. We're right to ease him back but Kulu, Simons and Odebert won't play until the new year.

Against Auckland we lined up in a 433 with a single pivot in Gray and two 8s in LWB amd Donley, I wonder if we could see more of that shape, I actually think it suits our players better, Fernandes, Tonali, Gary and Bentancur could all play either as a 6 or 8, Gallagher and Maddison and hopefully Bergvall are more suited to the 8 in that shape. If Sarr is not sold he fits into the first category too.
