I hope Wimmer doesn't leave. He is a real talent. Jan is older, so Wimmer will get his chance eventually and will likely end up first choice for years to come. In the meantime I hope he gets some game time here and there and is able to remain patient.

He will probably play against the dippers, and if that goes well he will have pushed his name further up the pecking order.
I've got a feeling he'll be in the squad tomorrow...
If Dier & Vertonghen play (and Ben Davies is capable of playing LB/CB) then he could put Wimmer on the bench without ever really having to use him, in case of Emergency...
I think CCV will play on Tuesday at Anfield... whether that's alongside Jan (who needs a break) or Wimmer, remains to be seen... but I think tomorrow & Tuesday will be a good test of our squad as a whole.

Aside from being mildly droll, what exactly are you fookin' on about? ...My “agenda”?
…Massively missed my point here it seems.
What I said was to the effect that, yes Poch has cleared up his feelings on the matter (thus dismissing any ideas - see “conspiracies” - that the fans/press may have come up with), but that doesn’t change the fact that if Kev is not happy with his allotted game time he WILL eventually want to leave… He’s categorically implied as much already.
Maybe your can explain to me why you think I have taken exception to Wimmer’s comments?
Again you seem to have entirely misinterpreted what I have said.
Um, right, ok…. Glad you so succesfully cleared all that up with such crystal clear comprehension… Thanks, bloke! :roll:
Fuck me! Mate, I don't give a fuck, there ain't a problem here. Player who doesn't get selected wants to be selected shocker! Manager says there ain't a problem. There is no problem.
Could be talking about Chadli as Poch said he was in our plans and yet he has gone.
^^^Who's fookin' moaning???
Fuck knows what’s got your feathers so fuckin’ ruffled…
Sorry, I remember now…. It was my (completely inconsequential) avatar. LOL
I was under the impression this was a forum for DISCUSSION about Spurs, footy etc.…. I had hoped to engage in a discussion about squad/man management and examine the quandary of how to keep a player in Wimmers position happy…. A quandry which potentially exists for pretty much any squad outside of the financial heavyweights (whom effectively buy off peoples patience and/or sense of personal ambition).
Maybe I should have made my posting debut with dick jokes instead…? :face palm:
Meanwhile, Gascoigne8 - Thanks for the multiple ‘disagrees’. However, would it be somewhat outlandish of me to wonder exactly what it is you disagree with?
I mean, essentially, all I’ve really said is that a player who is not happy with their game time will eventually leave.

I just don't like you, it's as simple as that.
'Playa'. :roll:
Let's get some reality with Big Kev here.
He's played 20+ times for us and this was his first real poor performance.
He's a bloody good player.

Yeah I wouldn't judge too much on that game. It wasn't a proper Spurs team and no one was putting in a performance to be remember (apart from Vorm, I guess).
He's a bloody good player*
*alongside Alderweireld
Nothing wrong with that......but the calls for him to play ahead of Dier at right centre back are unrealistic
He also had a shocker in the Europa League last season too - but you're right, he has rarely put a foot wrong. Tonight he was fucking shocking (just like he was his previous two appearances for Austria) - but he's solid back up for Vertonghen.
No where near as good as Vertonghen (which is why it was strange that people wanted Wimmer to start games this season) - but he can get there if he can continue to improve. Still young.
In fairness I reckon Toby could make me look good if I played alongside him.
I like big Kev, but fuck me he had a stinker tonight. He didn't look like the experienced CB of the two.
Anyway- just makes the treble easier to win- starting Saturday against Leicester
Totally agree. Jan is a level up from wimmer.
But good back up.
Poor guy's having a bad week.
