Another former player has left Spurs and gone on to win silverware, this time Kieran Trippier, whom Spurs deemed surplus to requirements.
Staggering incompetence from the club, we have let 3 right backs leave in recent times, who are all better players than the 2 clowns we have now.
Give me Trippier, KWP or Foyth ahead of Aurier and Doherty any day.
And people wonder why we are labelled Spursy.
Trippier wins La Liga

Doherty is a rwb, never an out and out defender. Buying him to play at rb was a stupid decision and I hope he regrets it as much as the Spurs fans do.
Even if we took him back I don't think he would be the same now. Shame as he was my fave player over the last several seasons.
Square pegs and round holes etc. Levy/Jose must have looked at his goal and assists stats and thought for £15m we've got ourselves a bargain.

I think the biggest thing to consider in this is...
Which players that have left the club, regret leaving the club?

Only 1 - VDV

Trippier was garbage. His last season was atrocious. Even worse than the hapless Aurier.
Selling Walker was the big mistake. Our right backs since him have been awful.

Champs league stopped us being a selling club. No surprise that now we out of it the media and the players now chatting about biggest games and matches etc.

So you have Trippier winning La Liga. Foyth in the final of the Europa. Eriksen winning Serie A.
Even N’Koudou won the league and cup double with Besiktas this season, just to top it off.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Eriksen has been on the bench for most of the season and Trips missed 10 weeks for a betting ban so they may have the medals but lets not pretend they have flourished since leaving us.
Those who have mentioned Walker should remember that ironically it was Poch telling him that Trips was going to get more game time at his expense that initiated his move. Although I'm sure doubling his wages helped make his mind up.

Trippier`s form has definitely improved under a better manager. He wasn`t very good at Spurs at all. Although with the current Spurs fullbacks, he would be thought of as world class.

You forgot all the trophies Walker has won.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And Modric and Bale
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And Tripp winning a Championship title. The list goes on and on, soon as they pull on a different shirt, along come the trophies.

Our many expert Spurs fans wanted Trippier out and were glad when he was sold?

He wasn't having the best of times at Spurs and he even admitted he wasn't performing well. Him being sold was not the issue at the time. The issue was having two right backs who are worse, in his place.

Trips played every game before and after his ban. He played 28 league games for Athletico this season, 90 minutes in every game. He is undoubtedly their first choice RB and they set up a system around him as full back. He’s absolutely flourished, and just won the league!
