Another overrated overseas player with a fancy name in all probability. Spurs should be steering well clear of players like that anyway.

maybe he was waiting for a big club to come in for him

Gonna be hilarious when Kane gets about 8 goals next season

its widely reported that LVG told Depay to sit tight last summer and this summer he would bring him to Man U.

if you were Depay what would you do?


Anyway, loads of players out there that would improve us.. why get hung up over Depay? its not as if we had the chance to sign messi and blew it....

Well i doubt he would have been worth as much as he is today, back then. Hes just gone and had a great season and won the league with PSV, think he is top scorer or something.

Mind you United have Di Maria.

Mugged off there fella.

we are jokers in the transfer market. we should just go for players from German and Balkan leagues or u20 talent that has not broken through to first teams for major clubs. Look at what Juve have done with Pogba.
we can only sign top class youth players. Not top class first teamers.

To be fair Pogba is an anomaly, an extraordinary player, not many of those about

we aren't jokers. we just need to be a bit smarter.

for example, I was crying out for us to get griezmann from sociedad the season before he had that great season with sociedad... it was so obvious he was going to become top draw, and at that time was gettable.

then he had an even better season, now he is at atletico, and we wont be able to get anywhere near him.


there are loads of players like that, who do similar things.. we need to just scout properly.


one guy we should seriously look at is Mahrez at Leicester. even if we just buy and loan out. as far as I am aware he is still young, and he has very very good ability, hes just ridiculously raw...

if he becomes cultivated he could be a really good player in a few years.

Totally agree. And that's hopefully been recognised by the club in bringing in Paul Mitchel from Saints.

Let's hope he has similar success with us, other clubs (including saints) prove that these players are out there, we've just not been very good at finding them - with some exceptions of course.

the business model that we have relies on excellent scouting networks.

that's why its so disappointing to here LLM say that up until recently there was virtually no scouting at spurs.

Someone who has done quite well in the Dutch league, meh.

Considering we're not exactly flush with cash in comparison to our 'top 4 rivals' (I use that term loosely), having some feeble scouting department is quite frankly appalling. We hoping that wonderkids just happen to live in Enfield and surrounding areas or something?

Give poch a chance to bring in the players that he wants to bring in over the summer.

He's proved that he's willing to play young players and give them a chance and that will help us recruit players like Ali

posted on 8/5/15

Remains to be seen what he does at Man U though. Let's wait and see.

That's what makes the Dutch league so unpredictable. For every Van Nistelrooy and Suarez, there's a Kezman and a Alfonso Alves.
