    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Watching Nacional Corinthians in Sudamericana Wesley. Thats our Son replacement. There's actually a little of Mbappe in the way he explodes past players - similar movements.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    @Ghost Hardware Here you go mate. I got a response about Doué Yeah twice ! What a player mate 😱 In my opinion, one of the most talented/gifted player ! He is so consistent at his age and has got a bright future ahead of him Great to hear, if we cant do the Estevãos maybe we need to do these...

    The Managerial Merry-go-round

    I actually don't think it's as bad as it looks. He knows Bayern as he worked there so knows the structure, people and expectations. Worked well there too so he won't have to prove himself in some cases. He has much better players at his disposal and the youth players are exciting.. It is...

    General/Non-Spurs Transfers

    And Estevão has everything to become the world's best player, a genuine wonder once in a generation talent. Abel Ferreira said he's never seen anything like him before aand in the few games he's played this season he's already made a massive difference/impact. Just turned 17

    General/Non-Spurs Transfers

    I sincerely hope he doesn't go there. For our sakes, and maybe his own. A club shouldn't just be allowed to hoover up all the talent and hope 2 or 3 turn out to be gems. Problem is Chelsea have a big name here in Brazil. Undeservedly and Corinthians ex-technical academy coach is now scout for...

    Eberechi Eze

    That 4-4-2 video highlighted it every well. All of our attacking line across the width of the pitch are finding difficulty dropping, finding space, taking opponents out of the game when the opposition's defensive unit is set. Too many players are too static. I reckon that even if you added...

    Did they say it to you like you may be able to do something about the result?

    There were rumours Xavi didn't actually want him and it was all Deco pushing it through

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Totally agree with all that mate. Apparently, and I'm using an aggregator so don't know where or if Romano said this, but apparently we tried to hijack the deal and made a good offer but Roque only wanted Barca. If he's available and the above is true, surely we go back in for him as I do...

    Santiago Giménez

    Son only works effectively against high defensive lines and with players dropping deep to play balls in behind (like Kane did). I think Ange benefits from strikers who can play quick touch link-up play, move in all spaces and can play with back to goal. Son isn't particularly strong at these...

    We will beat them. They will play into our hands

    Eberechi Eze

    I think one stand out regarding Gibbs White is his mentality, very strong character and vocal. Not someone who will shirk under pressure. It's just whether or not he can be good enough

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Think this video sums up our second half of the season.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    For a start, I don't think we need to sell any of Son, Deki or Johnson. It's just as a front 3, they don't have the required skills as a combination. Richy we could probably sell and stay in a good place. Solomon certainly.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Was thinking about the Kane money. Did we actually spend it? Or is it possible we looked at the market last year, didn't see anything ((or) Ange wanted to try Richy/Son) so decided to wait a year to see if any better options became possible?

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    100% mate. Great point. Arsenal let PEA go and sold Lacazette. 2 players who were worth goals and 2 players who cost a lot. They replaced them with a kid who had been playing for a second tier team in Brazil, an academy player and a supposed wonder kid from Madrid. They then gave Nketiah a...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I think the left back situation sums everything up. We have 3 on the books but have had to play a RB there recently. Even Conte had to do that. Udogie has been a great find but you can still see a lot of rawness in him (right foot control inside and loss of possession) But we've had no...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Which leads me to the point that I think we need to be wary of signing players who play in systems with very rigid patterns or functions because the player may have had the instant coached out of them and it may be why we struggle a bit now as Conte does not want freedom in hos players
