I'd take prime Ben Davies at this point.He could be the left footed Roberto Carlos, could be the left footed Emerson. I think we know what we’ll get.
He needs to be able to start straight away, then we can rotate Spence & Porro
if he doesn't score score or assist 50 goals in his first 2 gamesCan't wait for our fans to give a teenager, who doesn't speak the language, about to be hit with a culture shock both socially and footballing, absolutely no time to adapt, kill his spirit and confidence by March, for not being Roberto Carlos.
Anyway, welcome young man.
I hope you are the start of a new era.
100%. At the very least they will give 100% and will get 15 games or so with full backing from the crowdThats exactly what we should be doing. Best way to reset a culture is through giving a chance to young, hungry players, preferably club trained. Some may not end up good enough but its a start.

He's only 18 until his 19th Birthday though!!!!He’s an 18 year old kid from Brazil. I swear to god if this fan base doesn’t give him time to adapt, I’m gonna call y’all gooners.
He is already 19 anyway
Clearly complete shit as Barca will never pay the going rate for himSport.es claims that van de Ven want to leave Spurs, and that Barca is his 1st choice...

He can have 2 games to adapt then!

Remember the claim that we bid £75m for him lol. Another press leak lie.
