Lol. Skipp has only just turned 23 FFS.It happened to Winks, it happened to Dier. It will happen to Skipp as well.
This thread made me emotional It was his time to go, but some of the players just feel like they will be COYS forever. His intelligence and mentorship makes me think/hope he will be back someday

Wouldn’t hurt him to say it every once in a while.And he loves you.
Shows you have much we wanted rid. It's a nice move for Eric - wages, his mate there, great city in a great part of Europe. Also, in that league, he will look a bit better.Damn, that's basically a pittance. Still, he was going to leave on a free anyways and it frees up a large chunk of wages from the bill.
I don't see anything in him that would lead me to think he will be a good manager (that type of coach). Quite the opposite if I'm honest.Dier is starting his coaching / management apprenticeship at Bayern, as well as contributing to the squad.
Learning in a new environment and methods, I can see him in coaching in the future.
23 is about the age you'd expect a player to be hitting their prime, but I think Skipp has declined if anything.Lol. Skipp has only just turned 23 FFS.
That injury does seem to have done him in a bit.23 is about the age you'd expect a player to be hitting their prime, but I think Skipp has declined if anything.
When you consider...
Udogie - 21
Sarr - 21
VdV - 22
Kulu - 23
Porro - 24
They're all starters and critical IMO at younger or the same age roughly.

I just don't think he's of the quality to be classed as a starting player for us.That injury does seem to have done him in a bit.
A loan out for proper game time for a season would likely benefit him. That Norwich season must have been his favourite one. See if he gets his mojo back.
Given his salary, he probably is happy with that. Many players would be.I just don't think he's of the quality to be classed as a starting player for us.
And that's fine. If he's happy coming off the bench and playing lower teams in the cups.
Players like Davies and Dier who provide a decade of loyal service deserve respect even if they dont attract the admiration of world class players like Kane.
Proper fans don't disrespect players like that. Only shit fans do. Sorry
Master baiters, so to speak.Most of them are just engagement baiting.
There's a nasty strain of Spurs fandom who think shitting on players who do nothing but give 100% for the club is some sort of positive quality - like they are keeping it real or some shit.
It's embarrassing.
He's been with us a decade and yet tanguy has 1000+ pages.Is Eric’s main legacy getting a 600+ page thread on the Fighting Cock?
He had long periods when he was a good player and didn’t make mistakesLets be honest it not that far from the truth but yes comes across nasty from that guy, Eric was a top chap nice guy but was riddled with mistakes and brainfarts and in general a liability sadly.
No one is questioning him as a person on and off the field , but as a player on the field he prob did only have 2/3 decent seasons , the first 2 he had dembele by is side too and many years after that one season under conte.
I think context needs to be taken, was he a good player - not really, did he constantly make mistakes / unforced errors yes ... Was he a top bloke and human being yes.
