Fair enough never considered that so yeah I guess if poch let him know it makes sense, I was just thinking from a levy/business point of view - when were apparently so astute with the financial side of things it seems daft they would let it slip when money is involved
Agreed, but I'll repeat that I find it extremely weird that we haven't heard anything either that he's extending or going. If Poch did indeed tell him so, wouldn't he have left the club when he doesn't have a contract anymore?
Yes, it is odd. Maybe we've made him an offer and given him some time to think it over? As

says, it's not necessarily a no brainer for Tommy to sign - it would limit his options.Yes, it is odd. Maybe we've made him an offer and given him some time to think it over? As
Does seem the most logical scenario.
Even if still leaves open the question of why he's (best as I can tell) the only first team squad player, who wasn't at the Euros, not in the training pics released by the club.
Guess we'll find out soon enough.
Apparently he's taken up an 'unpublicised built in option' till 2018.
Who Should Be Tottenham's Priority in Contract Talks?
Well that was a proper stealth manuever then, I don't think there's another corner of the Internet that has that information. Good find.
I don't know about pics, but he's certainly in the training video that was posted on the OS yesterday.
He is... it's just he's standing behind Wanyama... so no one can see him!
I still think he'll come good. He's young. Just wait until he turns 18, you'll see.
This is fucking witchcraft.
How on fucking earth did he manage to survive 2 summers of massive clearouts and end up rewarded a new contract for playing hide and seek?

Pochy didn't even wear the suit for this one and Carrol is wearing a training top. Not making much of a fuss about it are they?
I daren't even read the comments.
Would love to say this'll be like when Rose's new contract got untold hate and ended up embarassing the boo boys, but...
He can be a tidy player. At his best when his is played in and around more physical players. Question his stamina to press for 90mins (no-one can but hope you get the drift). I have no issues seeing him on our bench and when called upon he has always had a positive impact, I'm just not filled with confidence when he starts. And unfortunately when he has started thought that we have chucked him under the bus, as he has been selected as part of a drastically weekend team across all areas of the pitch.
He is vital part of our academy proposition to attracting new talent and keeping hold of those already here. He provides that link which is important when we pitch to greedy adults/agents putting their own bank balances ahead of their kids development as footballers. I'm sure he is motivated to get on the pitch and if he can put in a few half decent performances then no doubt he will have interest from other clubs and then have a choice to make like Mason this summer.
Good luck to him.
