Emerson Royal

JerusalemMan said:
Seems a much closer call than first thought.


Royal has now told local TV channel Globo Esporte exactly how close close he came to suffering potentially life-threatening injuries in the ordeal.
He said: “At that moment, GHod controlled me in a way… because it felt like nothing was happening. I approached the bandit, saying ‘calm down, calm down, everyone is calm, I'll give you what you want.’
“When I give him what he wanted, I approach him, because I'd already seen his evil look. I saw that he wasn't just there for the watch.
When I handed it to him, he walked away and unroostered his gun to shoot me. When he was about to shoot me, I pushed him, slapped the gun and he shot in the air. He fired.
It was at that moment, when I pushed him, that he lost his balance and the cop shot him. Then when he hits the shot, the rush starts.
I say, it's GHod at the moment. Because we were in a square, there were 15 people, more or less, in a small square. And he starts shooting everywhere and doesn't hit anyone. He fired 17 or 19 shots, if I'm not mistaken.
He had a gun that was a 9mm, if I'm not mistaken, semi-automatic. It's a weapon that is not normal for a bandit, nor a policeman.
Then I understood that it was a moment that could cost me my life, but it served as a lesson for me to be careful in several situations. I'm calm now.”

Wow! I've actually had a gun pointed at me once in my life and everything kind of slows down, it wasn't until later that I thought brick that could have gone horribly.
The irony is I've travelled in some dangerous countries and this happened in bloody Tooting!

Well done Emerson Royal, calm and brave!

Wow almost a shooting in Tooting!
 
Some post on Twitter said Spurs have no intention of selling Royal as Conte likes him and wants to keep him around. I had to read it twice to be sure as there's been 100 reports of him going back to Spain I always assumed it would be Doherty who was kept out of the two. Guess we will find out soon enough.

Maybe he keeps both
We will be playing potentially 60 games with 5 subs now
Having players who are happy here and getting better is a big plus
Perisic can cover both left and right as well as WF so we could be buying another rwb in Spence to play just one role
Doherty can play both sides and we’ve seen sessegnon do that too

I'm not surprised that Conte might like him, he looks to have a positive attitude, is willing to work to improve his game and appears to be a team player. A good team is made up by more than 11 superstars. I appreciate we need more going forward from him but he looks like he could cover several defensive positions and be very useful as a squad player.

This season with a WC in the middle we need 22 players
Most will get over 30 games IMO

Also while he may not be creating a lot, he works well with Kulu and Romero in locking down that right side. Emirates Marketing Project, Pool both tried hard but came up with nothing against us there.

He's an excellent defensive FB. If the task is to stop attacks there are actually few better. Conte possibly doesn't want to lose a player with such strong defensive attributes even if he doesn't fit his model exactly.

If he’s happy to stick around then it would be great to keep him for those games like Pool or City away when we’re expecting to have to defend more.

I’m not one of those people who wants to change players positions all the time but I really do think he could be great cover for Romero as RCB, he seems to have all the attributes for that roll. If he can cover 2 positions in the team then I think he is a very useful squad player.
