    Tottenham Hotspur v MK Dons Pre Season Game #1 - 5:30pm UK Kick Off

    It was through this game that I learned that Sebastien Bassong apparently works for Spurs TV now. Makes sense picking up that side gig given he's suspended. ;)

    Ashley Phillips

    You'd have to assume we'd ask for what we got for Lankshear - Phillips has had three seasons in the Champo and been decent to good in every one. He's only 21 too, so there's a good chance he grows in value. £10m plus £10m in add ons and a sell on clause, I'd guess.

    Provided we keep Moore, we'll have 3 next season. Gray, Moore, Austin. 4 if LWB takes up a spot in the full squad for Europe, or (somehow) we get Kane to come back. It's not as much of an issue as it sounds like.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Big thing from that interview is just de Zerbi confirming we aren't done in the market (and to be fair, I don't see how we could be). At a minimum, even without bringing anyone in, we're sitting on effectively at least 100m in likely outgoings in Bergvall, Vicario and Romero. Probably more...

    Well, Jamie Donley is also apparently being added to pre-season, and he's not the poster boy for 'mobile', let's put it that way. But he is technical, and I think that will play a greater role in club youth recruitment going forward.

    In recent times, I can honestly only think of Madueke as a player who went on to bigger things after leaving the academy. And the verdict on him is mixed, to put it lightly. Even the players we did blood in the first team, like Winks and Skipp, didn't really have stellar careers - and...

    It's more complicated than that. Poch wanted to clear out the old guard he inherited, and didn't have the money to sign the players he really wanted. Remember, he wanted Jay Rodriguez and Morgan Schneiderlin from his Southampton side, and Mateo Musacchio - he got the dirt-cheap Benjamin...

    To me it's likelier that the club have decided to hang on to Solanke and Richy - Melia's probably a consideration for 2-3 years down the line, if at all. I'm not fussed if we do stick with Richy and Dom - they're not spectacular, but neither are any of the options on the market right now. More...

    By then Kane had already scored about half a dozen goals for us across 13/14 and the start of 14/15. Prem, Europa, the cups. That goal v Villa was what catapulted him above the likes of Adebayor and Soldado into being our first-choice striker, but he had already reached the first team by then...

    The academy exists to develop players. Very few of those players will ever make the first team. The vast majority of them will be loaned out and then sold, or straight-up released. The club accepts this. The academy accepts this. Hell, the players accept this, which is why we get so many...

    Djed Spence

    Might not be our choice. He might come back (rightfully) expecting a starting berth. Trouble is, he's a right-footed left back, always a bit of a tactical oddity. And on the right, he has to compete with the best right back in the world, in Pedro Porro. So even with his displays, the path to a...

    Pedro Porro

    Not even like he's been a passenger - man has been ridiculously solid, arguably Spain's best defender, up against the likes of Portugal, Belgium, and now France. None of them could get past the guy (well, aside from.Belgium, but that goal came down the other side). Part of it is that...

    Bayern would be losing 60 goals a season. No way would they bite at that price, nor would H come (I think). My feeling is, if he doesn't sign a new deal with Bayern, then there's a small chance to get him on a free in 2027 if we have a barnstorming season, get CL and look like being able to...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    Also ensures at least one Spurs lad makes the final, continuing a run of Spurs representation in WC finals that stretches back to (iirc) 2018. 2018 Final - Lloris 2022 Final - Lloris, Romero 2026 Final - 1 of Romero/Senesi, or Djed (possibly also Porro on the other side of the bracket). We...

    Cristian Romero

    Came off injured today, though very late (like, second half of extra time). Hoping it's just cramp, or he might not get his summer move.
