Spot the difference between Winks, Skipp, Kane, KWP, Edwards and Onomah.
Four of those are Spurs fans, in and around the first team, get chances.
Two of them aren't, didn't work hard enough to stay around the Spurs team and have been shafted out on loan. I guess you have that extra impetus to work hard to play for your boyhood club as opposed to someone who just plays football for a living.

That's not saying that you HAVE to be a Spurs fan to succeed as an academy player, I imagine over half of our academy players don't support the club but I can see how you can take your eye of the ball or lack the desire to want to make it in Tottenhams first team when other youngsters are showing that there is life outside of England etc. - whereas if you ARE a Spurs fan, you're willing to be a bit more lenient when it comes to not getting chances (KWP's case) and continue to work hard for your chance and not want to leave
