Good point specially about Doherty. Prior to his injury, I thought he was excellent and was the catalyst for that last gasp win at Leicester, the way he bulldozed his way into the box and Bergwijn profited from the score.
I think Conte just doesn't buy into Doherty...Really note totally sure why

Not sure about that one
He played him out of position on the left before his injury ….I think he rates him
Lets be honest we all couldn’t believe he was a footballer but then something clicked and we had the player we signed from wolves
Conte got him firing again
Doherty is a very good wing back ….better than spence
I want us to move on from more wing backs now ….we have enough there (unless someone ridiculously brilliant turns up) but I’m happy with the options
I’d happily sign Spence but loan him out
Ignore that Sky Sports tweet if that's where you're getting your info. They've done that pretty much every week for the past six weeks. The truth is they've not got a clue. We're already in Korea. He likely won't be needed until they return so there's no benefit to getting the deal done now, which is probably why both Levy and Paratici are in Korea with Conte and the squad.
I think this is all part of the tactical process. All the time we're stalling Middlesborough and Wilder can't get any other business done. They'll need that 15-20m a lot more than we do. Chances are they'll cave soon and ring us up to finalise the deal but I have my doubts whether anything would have been done over the last couple of days.
Oh, and for what it's worth, I'd defo take WP back. He's a much better player now. My only worry would be whether he can play wing back. It's a specialised position. Even Trent AA struggles with it for England.
Did Forest play with wing backs or was he a left back last year?
KWP - too light weight for Conte
Spence - if he is who Conte wants then we should get him

I don't think he's who Conte wants. He's who Conte accepts he has to have to fulfil home grown quotas. Hence the KWP rumour too.
I'm of the belief that the wing backs are crucial to the system so I don't really care if they're home grown or not, go out and get the best rwb we can afford. We can look to sign a homegrown player in another position maybe. That said, I don't know anything about Spence. Could be another Walker or Alli but could just as easily be another Clarke. No way of knowing. It's one hell of a gamble for such a vital position.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
According to the Forest lineup in the playoff final Spence was playing as a wing back.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, well that's promising and makes me lean more for him than KWP.
In the past these guys from clubs behind us (lower prem or championship) have been our best buys. Wouldn't be surprised if he followed the same trend and really shone for us.

Maybe why this rumours is lingering for a player who on paper, has so little to offer
Never go back. Ain't that what they say ?
WP is same situation as Eriksen. We let both go for reasons, so why would we go back for them ? is WP better than what we already have, or more importantly better than what we could get given we have the money and the pull of CL and Conte.
Spence for the future yeah, but should be looking at a ready made, quality RWB, who is good to go now.
Eriksen. Nah, not for me. Haven't forgot how he effectively downed tools to force a move. Is now 2/3 years older and there are medical consideration.
KWP not even first pick at Southampton any more

Spence was a RWB - good skill, lightning speed, scores some great goals, but slightly suspect at defence (can get caught out quite easily)
Personally having watched him for a season - inthink he’s good value at £15M in today's market

No way of knowing? That's why you scout players. Clarke had a handful of games off the bench for Leeds in the Championship. He was a punt at a silly price. Spence has played a full season and had good showings against pl sides in the cup. Obviously there's no guarantee of anything when it comes to young players, but it's not all the same

Spence is far more dynamic than KWP, Middlesbrough are trying to force us to increase the money but at present time Spence is still developing and is unhappy his club are trying to play hardball.
People that have never even seen or heard of the lad just surmising at the situation, all will be revealed in due course
