Regarding Poch I meant that if you look at performance trippier should be behind KWP so my trust and faith in Poch says to me there is more to it. Maybe a maturity issue, maybe Trippier is a big voice on the pitch and Poch likes that. Not sure but I do trust our manager 100%

Hold on...so finishing 2nd with Walker is evidence he is better (even though Trippier played nearly 20% of the games that season). But finishing 5th and 6th with Walker means fuck all?
We finished one place below, last year, but had a far better CL campaign with Trippier playing, but I guess it was all in spite of him, wiping the floor with Madrid and winning the group.
There is always a trade-off when you push a fullback high but a brilliant FB, with pace and athleticism, will get back, not usually to cover his own position, but get back to cover the position of either the CB or DM/CM that's been pulled out to cover the space left behind. Tripps absolutely doesn't do this, it's why there are holes in our defence and are readily exploited and one of the main reasons (not sole reason) why were are conceding more shots on our goal than before. All our other FB's cover and are able to contribute. His crossing really isn't very good, it's a narrative with no substance to back it up, a bit like Eriksen's ability to score from a free kick.
Combine this with the fact when he is back in a defensive position any way he's just a poor defender both with and without the ball. With the ball, he can't play out from a press, not exactly the right personnel for a team that errr, plays out from the back. Without the ball he's all over the shop.
Makes Walker look like Cafu. What a middle table player. We should have cashed in the World Cup hype.
I never said finishing 5th and 6th with Walker means fuck all. So stop putting words in my mouth, ta.
Walker.
6th. 5th. 3rd. 2nd.

the process of developing or moving gradually towards a more advanced state.
We had a better Champions League campaign? Well that's good. I wonder if its because Aurier played double the amount of games Trippier did?
You love it, you soppy tart.
I really don't.
But you want Aurier fucked off too. It doesnt bother me if Aurier plays....Im all for the squad.
This is Kyle Walker in a nutshell....will always be braindead
He'd be playing for Hull if he wasnt fast
You’re saying Sissoko doesn’t cut it???
Lmfao
He does make the odd error but contributes far more than Trippier who takes the odd free kick ok but Eriksen still takes the majority
Cue a load of boring statistics incoming
I don't mind Aurier at all.
But I think we need full backs on both sides and considering I see a lot more upside than KWP, it'd probably best if we sold Trippier and Aurier, brought in a new right back with the money and used KWP as back up or competition with a new full back.
You're right. It is. And when we sold him, we couldn't even upgrade on an error prone quick full back. So more fool us.

This season what game has Aurier played shit in?
I think he's had a couple of mixed games, made some stray passes, got beaten by the oppo but then in the same game made some great tackles, read the game well and contributed in attack. Can't think of a calamity that has lead to the oppo scoring and us dropping points.
One of the worst examples I've seen Sammy, this was all on Bentaleb giving the ball away whilst we were building an attack. Walker sprinted back from miles out (if memory serves he was in their half!!) had no right to even make that ground up but did, fucking unlucky.
Sissoko doesn’t see more of the ball than Trippier, he doesn’t play more incisive passes than trippier, he doesn’t create more chances than trippier, he doesn’t assist more than Trippier, he doesn’t tackle more than Trippier, he doesn’t intercept more than Trippier.
Yes. I’m saying Sissoko definitely does not cut it. He’s the worst player I’ve seenin a Spurs shirt for a very long time. He’s defunct. A dead parrot.
Walker is a brain dead speed merchant mate, he's learned nothing at City
Tone fair,
sammyspurs
could have just posted Walker’s highlights from City’s Palace game that got him dropped for their last three games (inc their game against Liverpool).
