You'd be hard pressed to convince the most pessimistic and miserly of Spurs fans of this in reality. This is easily the worst Fulham side I've seen in my young Prem following life. OTOH, Parker has done pretty well for them.
Fulham just need time to gel.
Pace on the counter left Fulham for dead. It wont with us next week.
That and we don't have Sidwell, what does it say about a team when your most creative player is Scott Parker
They are a bunch of wankers. If they play like that against a decent team they will get spanked.
Does anyone else think livermore looks like chris hughton?... glad we are loaning falque not selling
So with this Lamela deal looking more and more likely, it looks to me like we're getting particularly heavy on the right side of attack, even if Bale goes. Townsend IMO is already better than anything we have on the left, and with Lamela coming in and Lennon still available we have a very lopsided attack. I want that Ljajic kid hella bad as he'd fit in absolutely perfectly, but it looks like he has his heart set on Milan. Anyone know of any left wingers out there that would fit in nicely with AVB's system? Curious to see who the club would target especially now that the Willian deal fell through (due to his ability to cover that left wing slot).
Clearly Chadli can, but I've never seen Lennon deployed on the left other than when swapping midgame. He's not awful, but he's not particularly effective over there. Even so, as I said, Townsend is better than any options over there and he seems to be second choice for now, and we're close to bringing in another player on that RW side.
He grew up playing there and actually has a decent right footed shot despite being a lefty, but he clearly does his best work coming in from the right. Would much rather move Lennon over there if need be.
I hope so man, really do.
Always assumed that was his natural position.
I agree absolutely with the strategy, but I'm not sure how effective Lennon would be over on the left. He barely scores and creates on the right, what makes us assume he'll be able to do much on the left? Regardless, Townsend has to play over him on the right, so I'd like to see us move him around as we find effective, I just don't think he'll cut it in this current squad.
Christ Ljajic would be so fucking perfect.
