Weird that the 'under 21 at this date' date is 1/1/13. Nothing at all to do with the season.
 
BAE and BALE gone in the same day... they're gonna have some surplus 'B's, 'A's and 'E's in the Spurs shop... no wonder we're going for BA!!!!!!



(I'm assuming Lamela, Soldado and Paulinho will shift the rest of the 'L's!)

Thinking about it, I wouldn't mind not bringing a LB. We keep and develop Rose's final ball and defensive composure. We continue to develop Fryers and have him as second choice playing in every cup game and Europa league game, and possibly against lower level PL teams. I would rather focus on a CAM/LW/ST.
 
Anyone know how many times Vert played LB last season? Wouldn't be surprised to see him there against more physical teams with Daws/Kab/Vlad filling in centrally
 
Fryers didn't impress me on his recent outing against Tbisili, I wouldn't be comfortable relying on him should something happen to Rose.

Nor do I want to see Vertonghen at LB.
