Achraf Hakimi, not sure it's realistic though.
Ah yes, the statistics referenced are goals and assists, which apparently are Twitter stats and don’t count during the game?Reduced to childish insults - keep digging as this is all you have
Emerson has been nothing short of dog shit under both Conte and Nuno prior - dream on of the next Cafu there - game is played in paper not Twitter stats
Achraf Hakimi, not sure it's realistic though.Who's fast, a dribbler, and has an end product?
Note, end product rules out Adama immediately
Bit harsh to bin off Emerson after only 8 games and two managers in that short period of time, also Covid, game cancellations etc. If Conte managed to turn Ashley Young and Victor Moses into championship-winning wing backs we should see if he can do the same with Royal... although not with Gooner Doherty, he can do one
Both Moses and Young were natural wingers though, Young was a very good one earlier in his career. Emerson doesn't seem to be comfortable at all attacking down the wing, I think this is where the problem lies.Bit harsh to bin off Emerson after only 8 games and two managers in that short period of time, also Covid, game cancellations etc. If Conte managed to turn Ashley Young and Victor Moses into championship-winning wing backs we should see if he can do the same with Royal... although not with Gooner Doherty, he can do one
we havent got bags of cash to spend, and I 100% believe the focus will be on another forward, a box to box midfielder and a bit of cover at centre half before we look at wingbacks
I always watch Aarons when Norwich play...and he always sucks....To those fanatics out there: have anyone been watching Max Aarons and/or Jayden Bogle?

Agreed, If we do sign one I think the player will surprise most of us. Conte will know who he wants, let’s put our trust in himAnd as he’s shown with that position in the past (Young, Moses) it doesn’t always have to be a player who will break the bank. I think whoever it is won’t be on that list. It will be completely left (or right) field.
Exactly. I don't see us buying a new rb as replacing Emerson at all. I see us replacing Doherty, which clearly needs to be done.I dont disagree on Emerson but he’s probably here for atleast another 18 months now as he does deserve a chance and he is a solid back up.
He was merely a backup to Trippier as some lunatics would have had you believe at the timeI’ll never trust Spurs fans opinion on fullback play after the incessant criticism of Kyle Walker. The number of people happy to see him going was astounding and bizarre.
Then they turned on Trippier immediately after!He was merely a backup to Trippier as some lunatics would have had you believe at the time
