Japhet Tanganga

To the tune of Oasis' Don't Look Back In Anger:

Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you might find
A better place to play

You said that you'd never been
But all the things that you've seen
Will slowly fade away

So I start a revolution from my bed
'Cause you said the brains I had went to my head.
Step outside, summertime's in bloom

Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so Sally can wait, she knows it's too late, as we're walking on by
Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I heard you say


Slip inside the eye of your mind
Don't you know you can't find
A better place to play

You said that you'd never been
But when you saw the bright green
You found the Tot'num way


So we start a revolution from The Lane
Putting teams away, game after game
Step outside, summertime's in bloom

Stand up inside this mighty place
Shout and cheer, get off your face
You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out

And so Japhet won't wait, he needs to be played, he was sent from on high
He's gold all the way, our best fullback Tanganga, has got to play

From a 2012 article:

He said: “I’d started off as a striker because I was small. Centre-halves used
to smash me up.

“Then a coach at Sheffield United switched me to right-back when I was around
16 and I’ve been there ever since.

“I was the last one to get a scholarship out of my year. I was getting worried
but my mum and dad were probably panicking more than me.

“One day, two of the coaches Kevin Fogg and Ron Reid pulled me into the office
and Kevin said it wasn’t his decision but the club were going to give me a
chance.

“I can still remember it. I could see the weight lift off my dad’s shoulders.
My dad just said you’re going to have to prove these people wrong.

“But those two were a big help in my career. I could have been stacking
shelves in Tesco. I need to say a big thanks for putting their belief in me.”


From the same article:

KYLE WALKER is called the new Roberto Carlos in Spain — but Tottenham’s
full-back would rather be known as the next Dani Alves.

Walker earned his accolade with a man-of-the-match performance for England
against the world champions at Wembley last year.

The 21-year-old right-back
has to pinch himself at being mentioned in the same
sentence as Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos.



Tanganga turns 21 in 2 months

yea i was talking about Sessegnon rather then Tanganga in reply to the earlier post
 
Anyone think when Davies is back, it might be worth pushing this guy into a DM role infront back 4?

I know it's a bit of an ask, but he's played CB/RB/LB, why not one more

Tanganga seems pretty good at heading, perhaps he can do a Sutton / Doherty and get on the end of Aurier’s crosses whilst Kane is out?!

So apart from lb cb and rb, this kid is going to solve our DM and second choice number 9 issues!!
What would be good if he could be the type of defender you could chuck up for the last 10 when chasing a game, a la Chris Samba at Blackburn. None of our other defenders have been options for that for a long time

Has Tanganga got a twin brother like Sessegnon and Dele?!
 
Ledley King played DM and claims it helped it with his positioning awareness.
In that role he also was on the end of a crunching tackle that resulted in his knee problems that would eventually end his career.

It's not a solve, but interim solution ..

to @metalgear point, Ledley has done it, it would also give him playing time
 
I don't see why he should be considered there as long as Winks is fit at least. Not sure why he would be a better solution than Dier or Gedson either.

"It's amazing that I played as long as I did really when I think back to that game at Pride Park," King told The Sun.

"It was my first start for Spurs, I was playing in midfield and after about 30 seconds I was clattered by Rory Delap.

"I just about managed to complete the game but I needed an operation on my left knee afterwards which kept me out for six weeks. I've been having operations on that knee ever since.

"You could say that was the start of the end and it was only four days after my 19th birthday."
