I think Gray will benefit massively from much more attentive coaching. The caveat being I have no idea what I’m talking about .

I see more potential in him than Tel who a lot rave about!
Wrong about plenty, but still right about more than you. Imagine how bad that makes your takes?
Yeh but you admit unlike
Richard Arlison
and other clueless dipshits who predict everybody we sign will be a superstar without having the first fucking clue what they’re on about.Yeh but you admit unlike
More clue than you. Your not even Italian but have Tony Soprano as your user name on a football forum
Nowhere near as bad as your brainless cheerleading for Ange and idiotic hyping of every player we sign as the next big thing.
I’ll always know it’s horseshit when I see your name, that’s a guarantee of idiocy.
You realise agreeing with me that I’m a fucking idiot does not make me feel betterYeh but you admit unlike
Err yeh right, it’s a TV show I happen to like. I could choose a shit footballer like you’ve done but then that’s your speciality. I don’t want to cramp your style.
Bergvall looked way off the pace in the first few months with us. Massive improvement since. Rodri I think had one start for Villareal age 18.
So obviously players improve a lot at this age. We'll see, but he's ahead of the vast majority of his peers.
Brainless cheerleading for our most successful coach and squad in 41 years.
Wrong again Tone
Get kicked off the Sopranos fan forum then?
Or is it because your a hard man mafia type who posts a bit on football fan forums when your not busy extorting protection money from shopkeepers?
Christ; you actually believe this guff when you type it don’t you? Yeah all your hyping of the squad and the coach was correct because we won a Europa league by beating AZ, Frankfurt, Bodo and United while finishing 17th. Jesus.
That finished 17th and lost 22 league games. Most successful? Hmm, why then would you sack the most successful coach for 41 years?
Ok Rich, stay off the drugs. They’re really not good for you.
Because Trophies don’t matter at this club
Can anybody name a no6 at the top of the game that was as good as gray at 19 or even playing at this level at 19?
Where were Rodri, makalele , viera, busquets, fabinho etc al at that age? That's right, nobody had ever heard of them at that age.
Things can change fast when they are that age, he's got the ability he just needs time rather than slaughtering.

Need to see what he can do when settled into one position over the course of a season and given back his confidence. It was actually complete fucking bullshit that Ange leaned that heavily on an 18 year old to solve whatever injury crisis was going on that week, I think I remember him commenting how good it would be for his development to be getting so much PL football at such a young age but I think it's been completely the opposite, he was shoehorned into unfamiliar positions for our worst periods of form and got a grand total of 7 minutes playing time all the way from the QF to the final of the Europa league, so wasn't even a part of the team's only real success last season. He has been horribly mismanaged and needs a fresh start off supporters IMO.
Agreed, but does it help when people are hyping him as generational talent in a position he’s yet to play in at PL level? That’s way OTT.
I think that sort of nonsense does more harm than good.
I honestly think this was due to past coaching decisions hopefully he'll flourish under Frank
Whoa reading the posts - it's silly to compare Gray to Bale...just silly...
Many players who have joined Spurs didn't have a great first season I don't need to point them out as anyone over 15 knows them.
I've always said if you're old enough to wear the shirt, your old enough to perform therefore old enough to take criticism. Gray is probably being paid more in a week than most are in a year at his age.
As I've said before I stopped commenting on players performances because it could be down to soo many factors so for me it's now next season, last season is wiped & everyone is back to 0 from my view.
