I remember a Spurs youth watcher years ago said that the youth coaches at the time tried to completely remodel Bostock’s game. He was this wide playmaker type, a bit like a Spanish midfielder - David Silva or Carzola - and they were obsessed with making him this Steven Gerrard type box to box player because he was quite tall and leggy. His confidence went to shit and he faded away. He managed to rebuild himself and have a decent little career, which shows he had some talent and strength of mind.
Bostock was a box to box player at Palace, so I'm not sure what the "Spurs Youth Watcher" was watching but it wasn't the football.
 
That seems really crappy advice as they just look like they’re taking themselves far too seriously and would scream diva to me!

BTW the colour thing didn’t even enter my thinking, and I would have said the same irrespective, as there seem to be plenty of wannabe white hoodlums about.
Fair, and I wasn't knocking your own take, was more a wider discussion, and hopefully you'd forgive me for jumping the gun a bit on a lot of other like minded posts, because what else conjures gangster connotations in these pictures? I'm possibly diving a bit, but I'd be willing to wager that a lot of folk who were willing to label the young lad as a gangster, if they were shown a white boy who was exactly the same, minus the hair and the skin colour, wouldn't even think of the term
 
I can’t sleep, it’s too hot 🥵

As the JR/GLC rumour came from Argentinian sources, could it be that GLC’s representatives have put that rumour into the Argentinian media to force Villa/Spurs into getting a deal done?

Ramsey would be a decent option to take the squad place of PEH and GLC.

I’m trying to work out what the CM rotation would look like:

Bissouma / Gray
Sarr / Bentancur / Bergvall
Maddison / Ramsey / Devine

Tbh that still needs tweaks to me. If it’s me I’m taking an offer for Bentancur and moving Ramsey to the other 8 spot so we could get Eze/Baena/MGW for the 10
