With his delivery? Quite possiblyNot gonna help Janssen put the ball in the net when Kane is out is it.

Nah you're just wildly speculating.
Sounds like he's been tapped up. A shame, will be a big miss particularly on that big Wembley pitch and Trippier's defending one on one still doesn't convince me.
The UK income tax on a salary of £150k would be about £53kSo do we on salaries over £150k a year.
here's something on Spurs, but mostly Walker: http://blog.betbright.com/football/tottenham-wrong-shopping/
Kyle Walker is a pertinent example. He’s often praised for his evolution as a full-back and rightly recognised for improving without the ball. However, it’s worth remembering that from the point at which he arrived at Tottenham to the moment Pochettino walked through the door, he was essentially the same player. He didn’t change, he didn’t get any better. Quick, dynamic and dangerous when he crossed the halfway line, but flawed in his own defensive third.
...
Most of the current numbers are hollow, of course, but the prospect of selling Kyle Walker for upwards of £30m should, in nobody’s estimation, be thought of as a terrible thing. He is a good player and has provided an increasingly valuable contribution, but he is also (apparently) unhappy and backed-up by a serviceable replacement who has already been bedded into the side. It doesn’t quite amount to free money, but being on the selling side of that deal certainly has its perks. He will soon turn 27 and has played nearly 300 club games in his career; just how sharp is that acceleration going to be in two years’ time? This is the top of the market and, respectfully, he is not Gareth Bale, Michael Carrick, Luke Modric or Dimitar Berbatov.
And I believe the author is a Spurs fan.
Worth considering whether Walker at Man City or Man Utd will be the same Walker we see, or the Walker we used to see. It's not Football Manager where clubs can buy a player to perform the exact same way and to the same standards.

that refers to before Poch, and it's true. Walker was often caught napping as his man got there first.Author clearly hasn't watched much of Walker this season.

Poch is magic you know, he'll cast his spell on our next starting RB, whether it be Trippier, KWP or someone new.
some people must think Poch is only human like the rest of us hahaWhy has this got 2 dislikes, am I missing something?
