Re: Dawson
Kaboul's injury may have proven to be a blessing in disguise (depending on whether you are a Daws fan or not). Had he not been injured, AVB would have persisted with Gallas, Caulker, Vertonghen and Kaboul. Without Kaboul for the majority of the season this has allowed Daws another chance and it means a year closer to retirement for Gallas.

Re: Dawson
That has been true all along.
I agree that we do need 4 centre backs. Kaboul, Vertonghen and Caulker won't be enough come the summer. I think there's a very good chance we let Dawson go now or in the summer, let Gallas go in the summer and then bring in someone new. If we get a good offer for Dawson that is.
From a financial standpoint having a 29 year old 4th choice centre back who is actually worth quite a bit of money in the market, but will lose that value quickly over a couple of years makes little sense.

Re: Dawson
Think Kaboul's return being delayed for another month will mean Dawson will be here til the summer.

Re: Dawson
Why should we sell him now? it would be utterly stupid.
Kaboul, Vertonghen, Caulker and Dawson competing for the 2 spots next season and we're good to go.

Re: Dawson
Vegard Forren, a young norwegian centre back, is in England for a medical according to norwegian press. They don't know at what club but spurs is one of the clubs mentioned. Look's a good prospect, best player in the Norwegian league last year (not that that means anything)
I don't want us to sell Dawson though, one of my favourites. He's one of those guys that look's like he just loves pulling on the spurs shirt.

I know, he's a good lad, just pointing out that it wouldn't really be considered madness to think about selling.

Re: Dawson
Selling Dawson would be, imo, a terrible decision. AVB seems to have recognised his importance to the team. The idea of selling him or his career was over at WHL was one of early decisions that made me question AVB. I could not believe the fans on here who were willing to jettison a player of his calibre so easily in the summer.

Re: Dawson
I would absolutely say Daws is staying until the summer at least...unless we need his money? doubt we do though as again, the difference-makers really aren't within our price range in jan...

Re: Dawson
He has been injury prone and it was a great offer from QPR in the summer. But he is Spurs to me. The only guy who I think has genuine feeling for the club. Our captain and our longest serving player.

Re: Dawson
Not his best game today, but still, just wanna say how much i love and respect him and how proud i am over that he is our captain. Could've been sold in the summer, stayed to fight for his place, benched, continued fighting and is now in the first 11 again. Like others have said. He is Spurs!
