So many of these silk footed sequences were from last season with us as well.
I hope you are all ready for how painfully smug I’m going to be with some of you.

He will probably need a loan to a lower PL side. A year playing out of position constantly for a daft manager like Ange set him back massively, he didn't develop at all last season. We saw when he played in midfield towards the end of the season that he had no idea what he was doing and his football brain was completely frazzled from playing RB/LB/CB in a chaotic system.
He needs a solid season playing in his midfield position against PL players. Not minutes in Carabao cup matches against minnows.
Gray last played any run of games as a CM for Leeds u18's - didn't play any games as a CM for Leeds senior side only played RB and a couple of games at LB. under Ange played CB/RB/LB and I think one game at CM ?
So Frank will take a look at him to see what his best playing position(s) are - some players are good playing all positions (ie very versatile which managers like) without being great in one position.

No he can be loaned, that's not a slight on him. He needs mins. If we are going to act like a ECL team we should bring in two elite center midfield players. Sell Bissouma. Then this child can get some rhythm in his game. He was like all the others Sarr, Porro, Udogie thrown under the bus of an utterly clueless coach playing g an incompressible system. I think he will prove a sound investment there's no hurry just like Moore if anything we need to slow down let them grow naturally.

Good, don't want him burnt out before season even starts.Should we be worried he is not making the starting line-ups for U21 games?
Bench again tonight.
The football fantasy would be a midfield of sarr/gray/bergvallHe will play CL and PL and look like an absolute boss this season.
We should bring a top level #6 to replace Biss and Gray can rotate with them like Bergvall and Sarr will rotate with Bentancur.
I’d sell Bentancur as well if we could get another top level CM but that won’t happen and even in that situation, Gray would be here and playing.
Gray is probably the best placed player we have for a breakout this year. Hes built perfectly for Frank’s double pivot #6
I hope you are all ready for how painfully smug I’m going to be with some of you.
And if he doesn’t go the way you think, as many of our players have, anyone who is smug with you about it will be called not a spurs fan for ‘revelling’ in one of our players not making it..
The only spurs players who didn’t make it were players I didn’t rate like Werner and Hojberg
And I never celebrated that. I’d much prefer to have been wrong and they were amazing.
Anyone ‘reveling’ in a Spurs player not being good enough is likely not a Spurs fan. Thank you for clarifying.
You thought Bentancur was better than Rice and there’s a million other examples of you insanely overrating our players .. which is fine you’re a fan but the whole declaring how smug you’ll be if you’re right and then if someone points out you were in fact wrong you call them gooners is always a good laugh to me.
Maybe don’t assume you’ll be right on this one (if all our players got as good as you predict we would win everything) and just be smug when it actually happens…
