What a player !!!! Knew sod all about him when he was signed, but he looks built for this league.

 

[Shanks]

Rolls Royce of a defender!

 

[Komma]

I think you will all find that a Rolls Royce is a Micky van de Ven of a car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Timbo Tottenham]

Ledley was the ultimate Rolls Royce… kept in the garage all week and only used on weekends.

 

[Cochise]

Really feels like we've struck gold with him and Udogie. Both have the potential to become the best in their positions in the league if they continue to develop at the current trajectory.

 

[taidgh]

think the ranginess of vdv would murder walker over a 100m. would be a great spectacle for sure.

I think walker is definitely quicker over 10-20 and probably over 50, but no chance in a 100m.

 

[Snarfalicious]

It’s funny I find myself welcoming attempted balls in behind to his side. Just seems like a foregone conclusion we are getting the ball back.

This is the real trick though isn’t it. They’ve both been excellent so far, but they need to maintain this form to really take it to that next level.

At the moment I honestly feel on current form that Micky is the best in the league already. That’s on current form obviously, and very early days for him .

Walker is the fastest player in the Premier League

 

[djhotspur]

Walker is the fastest player in the Premier League

Yeah he hit an insane 37.5kph this season. Easily the fattest over 100m

 

[npearl4spurs]

He can't wait to go up against Haaland, and I can't wait to see it as well. Will be an amazing clash

Haaland flopped it against Romero last year so I doubt haaland is looking forward to it too much

[cjsimba]

What a great bloke. So nice to see players like him and Madders with a bit of personality.
