Couple of the academy stars need to be in first team squad come leicester. Theyre ready. Coming on in 2nd half against tiring legs we can pull away in matches.

Odd mistake still but some of the moves of Bergvall looked insane. Moore is a special talent too. Donley and Spence are looking bright. Gray is ready to play a part. I like the look of Lankshear, it's exactly the type of player that will suit our style, very nearly scored from that over hit pass, most wouldn't bother to attack that ball at all. Good movement.
I think Ange has decided he looks the most ready - and today only enough time to play one centre forward.
Most of his critics don't really know much about football.

Pleased to see Spurs are centre stage in Ukraine with its President !
Don't think Spence has the same quality as Porro. He wouldn't get the goals/play the same killer passes like Porro but he's a better dribbler and probably a better 1v1 defender.
The word inventive sums it all up. Bergvall,Donley and Moore all inventive and look to make runs,take players out the game with going by players and clever touches that opens the game up. These are the type of players we need. We add a winger and a very good centre forward and we will improve massively from last season.
Gray is a fantastic player already. He has experience of being a first team player and plays the game like an experienced pro. He wants to pass forward first before going sideways,he’s aggressive at winning it back and is very mobile. This is exactly what we need in a midfield player. Bergvall exact same but he has more class and looks like he has that vision and killer pass. What a difference from Hojbjerg and Skipp.
The one player who looks like he might be in trouble this season to play as regularly as last season is Sarr. Both Gray and Bergvall can do what he does but so much more.
All in all it’s been very good seeing these young guys and the next couple of games will tell us how close they are to being involved when the season starts. The first team boys will return and the game time of who’s going to have a chance of starting will increase from now.
No he never in anyway look lost. He was excellent in there. Gave the ball away a couple of times but what do you want to see. Guys like skipp and Hojbjerg play no risk football or guys like gray and Bergvall?
The way him and Bergvall rotated from the 8 to the 6 was very very good. Loved watching them. Every pass is positive and both will become a much better option than Biss and Sarr.
I don’t agree with that mate. He was very good in there. The only thing he done wrong was give the ball away for the goal. He’s taking a risk in a pre season game and that’s got be accepted.
Both rotated and switched when jn possession. Great to see us not being as rigid with just Biss sitting.
Went to watch this on spurs play just now and it’s disappeared? No sign of it at all! I had it paused ready to go on kick off, but come back 10 mins later and nothing… annoying, was looking forward to it.
It was brilliant defending and Johnson was at full pelt to get on the end of it.
Has a little bit of nastiness in his game. I really like that.
Wondering about Scarlett and Veliz too.
Either they’ll get extended minutes in Korea or, perhaps, they have loans lined up?
Might be because our center backs is on vacation somewhere
is it half full
or half empty

I don't drink halves.
All look good but need to see them when properly pressed. Gray miss controlled in 2nd half when put under slight pressure and didn't protect the ball in an attempt to recover - they scored as a consequence. Devine too when he was pressed (out wide) he hurried his pass which went straight to oppo.
I've watched a bit of Devine previously and not a lot of the others, but before we can lay claim to them being ready it would be good to see them put under a lot of pressure, closed down immediately when they receive the ball etc...They will most likely be the targets (weak links, if not technically but also mentally) by the oppo if selected.
For context though compared to players like Tripps, Sisoko, Reggie etc, who were garbage when pressed they are way above them already. I guess it's mostly my side not knowing their game well enough to be bold enough to make that shout.
