Seems most of the scout type accounts have a similar sentiment on this one.

Van de Ven is a good player to sign.

If they lean on him as the only CB upgrade, no bueno.


Alot of these scout type accounts wrote off Bentancur and Kulusevski too. And most likely would have laughed in your face if you told them Kane would be one of the best strikers in the world.

I agree that VDV is obviously very raw but he's got all the attributes to succeed in this league and if Ange thinks he can be the man for him so be it.

I think a system having the right parts is more important than personnel. I don't think he'll be our only centre back signing either.
 
Shut up for goodness sake.

In regards to Laporte, as good of a player as he is I'm not really too bothered mostly due to our track record of signing players that are taking a 'step down' to join Spurs..

With the exception of van der Vaart, I struggle to think of many examples where it has worked out, but plenty where they have been shit.

I think it depends on who the other CB is,

Tosin can play LCB and is prem ready so relieves some of the pressure on a young VdV straight away.

Lenglet would just be a massive lack of ambition as the other CB. We had him and conceded 60 goals
