Are there seriously Spurs fans who don’t think this kid is absolutely class?
Yes he's definitely not "absolutely class" and I wouldn't be at all shocked if he's loaned out.
Then we complain when a player comes through Brighton that we didn’t pick them up when we had the chance.
Decent young player with loads to learn. Needs regular football somewhere.
Definitely gonna keep the receipts in this thread because all the shit that this kid has been through with hacks like Ange, Frank and Tudor, after 6 months with a gifted coach like De Zerbi he will be flying.
Totally agree - somewhere like Charlton...
They're called Highlight Reels for a reason - I keep telling people the hint is in the name but they don't get it - you could do one on me & make me look like Prime Dhino...
Strangely we don't judge movies/games/tv shows pretty much EVERYTHING ELSE on Trailers but hey when it comes to players people do...
let's send him to antwerp for the summer and let him play cage ball with dembele 
There's bits of class in there that wouldn't look out of place in a Modric comp. The kid is a serious talent, i do worry if hes a little too nice though, you need a bit of nastiness in you when it comes to sport.
Maybe you think that's the case, people with an eye for the game can see the nuances in technique and intelligence. furthermore, lets see you looking like Ronaldinho if it's that easy lol.They're called Highlight Reels for a reason - I keep telling people the hint is in the name but they don't get it - you could do one on me & make me look like Prime Dhino...

People just have short memories and don't know as much as they think they do. He's 20. In a couple of seasons he'll be the first name on the team sheet. As you said, the lad is class.
Oh shush with that crap...
I play the damn sport have done for over 30 years now so yeah you're the meme...
bu bu bu look you just don't geddit - please explain to me then 3 parts of that highlight reel in detail 'the nuances in technique and intelligence' frame by fram then???
I wont be holding my breath...
I'm happy to record some things on my phone when I get back to the UK after the 7th of June & happy to do so but balls in your court for now my friend please enlighten me with your smertz...
I did a stream with a defender going through frame by frame of 2 clips of a Tottenham game against Brighton if you need pointers on how to do it?
You've said you'd look like Ronaldinho while turning your nose up at a reel which displays some serious class you clown lol.Oh shush with that crap...

I tell you what, get your little mobile phone and go and just attempt the cross he does against PSG, you probably think its a simple cross don't ya, hanging a ball up to the back post with your weak foot....cos you look like Ronaldinho

This might be the case....and it might not. Its ridiculous to be going OTT about a guy who may never reach his ceiling for any myriad of reasons. Theres no such thing as 'absolute class' Kane did not look absolute class his entire formative years. The hyperbole is off the chain. Archie Gray has some good fundamentals but he is some way off an elite midfielder at present theres no ridiculous recipts to be kept. Im quietly confident he could make it but it will be years before we know. He was already mishandeled in an emergency for a start the clowns at our club so far couldn't be trusted to run a bath let alone guarantee his future. Loan him out and get him game time.
Thought so...
So Xavi Simons, who came through La Masia, has raved about what a talent he is, but 'Guy From The Lane' thinks he's ordinary...while also thinking he can look like Ronaldinho on his mobile phone.
You're actually more deluded than the kid who thought the club should pay him to be in the changing room hyping the team up. This forum must have some of the most deluded people going.

I'd be really surprised if we loaned Archie. I reckon he's one that could really benefit from De Zerbi's coaching, and because of his versatility he's someone that's always handy to have around the squad. De Zerbi's namechecked him a few times in pressers and I think he'll see him as a bit of a project to develop.
Bergvall's the one I think we'll loan. So talented but far less reliable in possession and lacks positional discipline. He a bit of a maverick and I don't think De Zerbi will trust him in his best position, so best to get him playing regular minutes rather than playing scraps off the bench as a 10 or out wide.
