Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I've watched a fair bit of Hincapie and no one sane (so Chelsea is a possibility) is paying anything over 30 million euros for this kid. He is so NOT ready to play in a Conte team or a top EPL side. He's rash overly aggressive constantly makes poor choices and would pick up yellow cards like pannini stickers. He'd be so divisive on this forum He'd make Aurier look stable.

If this sounds like I don't rate him...I'll be honest (at this time and for mad money )no way. He needs games at LCB he needs coaching and he needs an experience partner. I don't think he's the kind of player Spurs can develop. I go for N'dicka though there will be a player here one day.

Decided to watch some and read some on him.

He’s almost an attacking CB. Dribbles and progresses the ball. Fast so you can play a high line.

Super fuckibg aggro. A bit like Lisandro Martinez but better going forward and more unstable defensively.

Agree it seems like Conte would hate him.

I know next to nothing about this kid, but from what you're describing it sounds like he's Romero with some more questionable calls in him?
 


The club "Don't want to spend unnecessarily"


Disgusting owners

Not sorting out a CB in this window is an absolute joke.

Window hasn't closed but the noises coming out of the club that once we get Porro over the line, the wallet slams shut are a joke if true.

Dier is bum gravy and has cost us points all season and the squad options aren't good enough either.
 
I find this absolutely staggering. I know he's just a raw kid who's a long way from reliable but we are so bereft of creativity in the first team, and the bench is even worse, and we are happy to pack off possibly the best bench creative option we have - which tells you how fucking shit our creative options are. The kid also works harder off the ball than all our other forwards.

If we were bringing in a quality option who plays where he does I could maybe understand. But we aren't and there's loads of football still to be played, who plays WRF if Kulusevski gets another injury or if we need to bring someone off the bench who can do something different to all the other bumblers?
Spot on! And he should have played yesterday…
 
Porro and done it looks like.

Shame we didn't bother doing anything on the CB front but after what's roundly felt like a shitty first half of the season we are in the last 16 of the FA Cup and CL and within touching distance of 4th.

The CBs are an issue but if we can keep Bentancur, Kulu and Romero fit and Porro can hit the ground running then I think we should have a much better second half.

Add to that Richarlison making his mark and hopefully Danjuma adding to his debut contribution and there is a lot to look forward to.

Perhaps Son's brother has finally left the building and we also get a decent showing from him this year.
