Suggesting that we replace Eriksen with Madison is like suggesting we replace Kane with Rashford.
Decent player but... well... y'know...
Or replacing Walker with Trippier..

Or replacing Walker with Trippier..
If Monaco gets relegated they have quite a few decent players we could take a punt on like Golovin, Henrichs and Jovetic for example.
He's not even a gooner.....HE'S A DIPPER!
This kid would be a great investment for Spurs. He is so similar to Wilfried Zaha it's uncanny.
He's actually more naturally gifted than Zaha and easily better than Moura.
If QPR want £20m for him, just pay it.
So here we go again.
Nobody is good enough and those who are or might be we can't afford.
You just know that on page 1224 of this thread and on August 31st we will be having the same discussion.
I for one have all but given up thinking our scouts or manager can spot a nugget or 2 worth developing for a price we are willing to pay.
former chav Oscar also has some creepy picks with his sister. Something in the water in Brazil?

Given this an agree, on the previso that he hasn't stuffed his HG status being in Dortmund in his teens...
Has he? trying to find the minimum age can only find "been on the clubs books 3 years before 21" - when does the been on the books start from, Wiki says 15 but I cant see that anywhere else?
That surprises me as I thought one of the reasons Germans were buying the players were to make money selling back homegrown players when more mature.
* he wont be homegrown for CL.
Amazes me when people get into the public eye that they don’t immediately delete all of their old social media accounts and just start new ones
the internet never forgets
Dafuq? I didn't know he tweeted that. Fuck him and the dog he rode in on.
*sigh*

Keita was piss poor against west ham the other night, epitomized by him getting tackled on the half way line first half and just jogging back as west ham broke forward. Not saying he won't improve but he looked off the pace bigtime Monday.
Almost every player we sign from different countries/leagues takes at least a season to get up to speed. Keita's a great little footballer who will come good. I'd have him here in a heartbeat.
Definition is :
player who, between the age of 15 (or the start of the season during which he turns 15) and 21 (or the end of the season during which he turns 21)
Sancho was born in March 2000 and joined Dortmund in August 2017 when he was 17 - so I can't see how he could have put in 3 years at ManCity/Watford from the age of 15 to be when he joined Dortmund aged 17. So IMO he won't be counted as homegrown when/if he returns to UK.
EDIT - However as he's still u21, if he came back to the PL and signed in the year before he was 21 he might get to having 'done' his 3 years albeit not continuously and therefore qualify as homegrown

He also hasn’t had a straight run of games. He has been in and out and like any player they need a run of games. Same was said about Son and now look at a POTY candidate
