If he's dropping into the CAM position all game then he's not playing on the wing then is he???????
We've got the 2nd best CAM in the league. Play him there, FFS.
We've got wingers queuing up to play on the wing..... Guess where they should play.
Modric spent the first year or so at Spurs nominally playing as LW but strangely very creative in the middle.
Eze started out as LW at QPR and initially at Palace. Hogson referred to him the other day as a forward.
Truth is he fills a Maddison type remit at Palace whether notionally a winger, a forward or CM.
Too many people get hung up on 'positions' not what the player actually does !
Then leave him as a CAM and let him have license to drift left and right when he sees fit (i.e. much like he was doing until he got injured).
.....If it ain't broke; don't fix it.
Out of interest, in what way have Brentford stood by him?
They're not going to sack him. That would be utter madness. He's a valuable asset that would cause them to lose so much more than they'd gain by sacking him. (large fee or goals)
He's been suspended from all aspects of football, so it's not like they have played him and supported him publically.
Brentford have done no more than they could, which is to carry on paying their employee and wait until a) he's no longer suspended and b) the window is open to decide what to do with him.
Going out on a limb, they may even have benefitted from this as his character may have reduced interest in him, making him easier for them to keep a hold of.

but importantly don't pigeon hole him.
which is the problem with a number of otherwise good posters
You're not wrong, who the fuck are Tottenham Hotspurs?
I like him, is a Tottenham boy 100% and loves the club.
He has certain talent and good attributes , however the main issue with him is that he consistently makes silly mistakes in games, in tennis you call it unforced errors. at times he looks so composed and assured then just silly lack of focus or just brainfarts occur and that is is downfall else he would be a solid bottom half pl player and good back up for a top pl team.
Not wanted by Postecoglou.
Clear as day the guys wants players who have football brains.
It's why Sanchez is another that to go..
A player like Sessegmon, has a football brain but is somply too timid, alongside his fragility of body.
Sammyspurs got this right, as he did when Eriksen started tp give less than 100%.
It's quite refreshing that we're on the 18th Jan and we've got rid of players who basically have zero future here and signed two players who improve our squad.
I think Ange is good at telling them that they have no future with us.
Not in those exact words though.
SSN wouldn't have nothing to report if wasn't for us , probably over 90% for ins and outs has involved Tottenham
This has been talked to death but …
Reportedly, we offered 35M for Gallagher in the summer - Chavs turned us down cause they want a ridiculous 50M to 60M fee.
Gallagher now has 18 months left on his Chavs contract so his price should be going down (but Chavs are sticking to their ridiculous valuation).
If Chavs lower their price and we get him for a cheap fee (or maybe even a reasonable price) - I think most here would be fine - What people are not fine with is overpaying and having our pants pulled by Boehley - with the added bonus of helping Chavs with their FFP issues. Don’t want the club to be mugged off by anyone - but I really don’t want Chavs to do it to us.
Plenty of good midfielders out there - No need to overpay Chavs for Gallagher - who I personally think is pretty mediocre.
Where you see that?

Yes, but they've gone from ex players and known sports journos to fucking unknown fucling youtube cunts
