    Nicolas Jackson

    That sounds good in theory but that's just not reality. Kane missed plenty of chances for us (and in no way am I directly comparing Jackson to him) including his fair share of 'sitters' but his strength was that he would be in position for the next chance that came along and wouldn't hide.....

    Savinho

    Absolutely. At 19 years old in La Liga he got 9 goals and 10 assists. That doesn't strike me as someone who doesn't have any end product. Of course different league, can he adapt etc are all valid questions, but I'm certainly not going to write him off based on what has or hasn't happened under...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Kilpatrick was just speculating, and Gold doesn't know much going on inside at Spurs at all regardless of the pedal stool some want to put him on. Funny thing was just prior to that interview RDZ had specifically name checked Lange and Vini for the great work they've done in this window....

    Savinho

    I don't think he's as much of a project player as you think, but we can agree to disagree mate. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if after all this it's someone completely different we are in for - have seen it all time and time again where players linked over multiple windows never get end up...

    Savinho

    As has already been discussed every ones progress takes a different path. To look at a 21 year old and a 22 year old and decide who's going to be better is impossible - not to mention they play different areas of the pitch. And then there is as has been mentioned Semenyo who was where exactly at...

    Savinho

    He is 22, lack of end product is often the last thing to arrive for a skilful winger. The fact he can easily beat a man one on one is something we don't have a whole lot of and an important attribute for the bigger teams. With some good coaching he can go up levels, and as someone who saw...

    Mathys Tel

    And many players who have hit a top level at 21 also don't go on to sustain it. There's no point making comparisons to others as development and decline happens at different stages. For me Tel has a lot of potential, he has a lot going for him - his mentality and ball technique being two big...

    Kroupi was nowhere near happening, and the news came out yesterday of how long he will be out for - the injury would have occurred before then. This will have nothing to do with Kroupi....

    Like you say he was a very good test player, and the style of player he was suggests to me he might be what we need, but of course will have to wait and see. I saw this, but of course IPL very different to Test cricket: Fleming, 53, is viewed as one of cricket’s great strategists, having...

    So it looks like Stephen Fleming to be test coach - Appears to be a decent appointment to me....

    Lucas Bergvall

    De Zerbi has it spot on IMO, and not a case of him just wanting to get rid of young players: ‘I would like that he stays with us,’ De Zerbi said of Bergvall. ‘I think he’s potentially a top, top, top player. But then I don’t want to convince anyone to stay. Tottenham is already, without me, a...

    Mathys Tel

    Thing that impressed me from when he first arrived was his mentality as you say, and his ball striking technique. Both for crossing and shooting it's very good - of course still things to improve on, but at 21 that's natural. Pretty confident we will look back in a couple of years time and say...

    Would make sense...if they actually rate him. Romano said something the other day about Romero holding out for Barcelona, so maybe there will be something there....

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    It's all well and good blaming the manager and Frank should shoulder plenty of the responsibility for last season. But VDV still had a job to do defensively, and he was often poor with any form of defending that didn't involve using his pace. Undoubtedly RDZ's front foot football will be more...

    Cristian Romero

    This 'Romero victimised by refs' is massively overstated - Not least because he actually does a lot of stupid challenges, but in 5 seasons in the Premier League he has been sent off 4 times, 2 of which were for 2 yellow cards. That hardly screams out some sort witch hunt for the guy. Maybe...

    Yeah what @MartyFunkhouser laid out above makes total sense. No idea what the answer is, problem being most young players coming through want to play the shorter versions of the game above test cricket which is sad to hear. Test cricket is such a great test of skills and the T20 stuff should...

    Was watching it yesterday and they commented on for a Saturday the crowds not being there. I don't get it, as the lineups in terms of player quality is as good as I've ever seen it in this country. What is the issue?

    Pre Season Thread

    I think it's more about not discriminating against young players more than totally forgetting about considering their age. I doubt he thinks LWB is ready, but I don't think he will be looking to get rid of him bar a loan either. Also worth considering specifically for this season with no Europe...
