Well I have to say on last night's performance, Daws is a man on his way out. I thought he'd still be at Spurs come September, but looks like I was wrong.
Disagree with that comment. I judge players on what they do, last season Daws was our best CB, and much needed by us, and instead got disgusting abuse and ridicule from some/many.And the scales fell from my eyes

From what I read about the Seattle game, which I missed, plus what I saw last night, plus the very strong rumours, it looks like Daws is on his way out, and he played like that. There was none of the usual passion from him. Admitted it was only a friendly, but something key was missing from his performance.

I still wouldn't sell him ... Even if we bring in another centre back, you know Dawson will work his ass off to get back into the team and give his all for us whenever he is called upon.
You cannot be a true supporter if you are doubting the club and the people who are committed to it. Dawson has been a good player to the club, but to challenge for top honors we have to build and continue to update.Be very sad to see Dawson go, Spurs get less and less like a team I've any great interest in supporting. More and more like bunch of mercenaries who have no feel for the club.
Of course I'm addicted so I'll carry on supporting, but the club is a mere shadow of the one I began supporting way back when.
Fair comments. Against Toronto we didn't seem to be playing such a high line, but we'll see how it goes.Fair enough, but it has been obvious for a while that he has been in quite a rapid decline. Don't get me wrong, I've always liked Daws, and I'll miss his passion, but he's not been good enough for the style we have played for some time, and I don't see that changing under Poch.
If he plays in a deep lying back four, with the game in front of him, he'll still have a career in the Prem, but he gets turned far too easily for the high line pressing game that Poch is said to favour.
I think Daws can do a job at Spurs as a squad player and also as a potential future coach. He should be be eased into a "Behind the Scenes" role and at the same time be used as cover.I still wouldn't sell him ...

I think Daws will stay, he's totally Spurs, and he will stay with the club. I agree with the other two plus Paulinho. The rumours are Poch doesn't fancy him at all.I believe that daws, sandro and chirices will go this season
