Has someone posted the squad who are going by position? They’ve not listed it in order at all on the spurs site 🤦‍♂️

Seems like everyone is going who hasn’t yet been sold bar Hugo and the 5with injuries : Bentancur, Gil, Forster, Parrott, Sess.

Will be interesting to see which of the current defenders impress as well as if PEH and Perisic and Lo Celso and Ndombele get many minutes as then we’ll likely see based on players who get repeated minutes if they’re in the managers plans longer term or not

Oh don't worry about the defence, people on here said Dier is fully fit now so we can chill out and get ready to pop the champagne next May

Yeah don't worry about Dier, it's another season, I fully expect this year to be the year he turns it around.

Didn't quite work in Mourinho's deep block, didn't work in Nuno's mid block 4, couldn't quite get it to work long term centrally in a 3ATB but I know for sure Ange's high line will be the one that suits him.

Wonder why Craig didn’t get taken.

Very interesting squad there so many unknowns in terms of certain players futures and if Ange will take to them and/or if they still want to be here, ? Marks on all highlighted for diff reasons.

31 man squad, about 6 youth players so 25 man squad and about 15 players with question marks, going to be a fascinating tour.

Same with Nile John & Dorrington. Can't take everyone. Price to pay for a bloated squad and the lack of activity on outgoings. Perhaps it's because Ange wants to look at a few, but the cynic in me thinks it's DL holding out for pie in the sky fees.

Is SPURSPLAY worth £45? Can you share a log in or can only one person view at a time? Keep seeing content only available on it and I'm very intrigued by Pre Season but don't want to pay £45 if it's average. Any help is appreciated.

Only one login I believe mate and most pre season games at difficult to watch UK times. There is some interesting extra content but it’s mostly useful for the pre season games.

I wouldn’t say it’s worth £45 tbh but I love Ange and spurs and I’m a slut for punishment so I’ve poneyed up for it like a mug

I thought it was just barely worth it last season for the friendlies and some of the youth games. But it’s a bit of a stretch. I let it renew this year but I was 50/50 on cancelling it.

Think it is a mistake to take all these players.

Saw what happened with Chelsea when they had 30 senior players in their squad. You can obviously take 30 players on a tour but you need more than 3 of them to be young players.

I guess Ange is trying to create open competition but in reality it won't work like that. There are so many players in that squad that have been beaten down by the Spurs system that the first time they dont get picked in the right training session their heads will drop and be why the fuck am I the other side of the world for a team I am not going to be at?

The biggest mistake though as always is the ownership, how we don't have deals lined up for 5 or 6 of these players is bizarre mismanagement. Absolutely woeful at selling.

Month till the start of the season, 6 weeks left till the end of the window etc. but it does feel like we are drifting into the same old mistakes. Contract's should have been ripped up and a defender should already be signed.
Quick E-mail the club get them to pull some of the players off the flight! 😆

It’s fine they’re are senior pros, unless a deal is agreed to sell one of them or very close a la Hugo then we can’t just leave them at home 😂 🤦‍♂️

Taking almost the whole squad certainly will stop all the speculation of who's staying and who's leaving, looks like Ange has closed down all that chatter for a couple of weeks, spoilsport. :)

I guarantee in the first 15 minutes of the first game, the speculation will renew…

It’s one login but 2 devices. I bought it last year for the friendlys and just let it renew.

there’s a 9 minute training video on there with a bit from Jedinak I found interesting.

It's 35 if you're a member or ST holder remember.

I watched it a lot through last season actually. The youth games are handy and some of the documentaries are good, the Lucas one especially.

We left quite a few players at home last year...

Happens all the time but the club is bad at selling people and understanding how to cut losses thats why our squad is bloated.

I assume Ange is smart enough to know that by the time he gets back to the UK he will have to know who he is going to cut out because our squad has almost as many established first team players as Chelsea did last year and everyone accepts that was a major reason for their downfall last season.

The positions are not set in stone but here's a quick breakdown of whose going on the tour.

For Postecoglou I think Perisic can only play the LW role, and I reckon White's only chance is as the inverted left back.
