Oliver Skipp

[G Ron]

Skipp off to Norwich eh? Sweetener as part of the Aaron’s deal?

 

[RikkiRocket]

What is he becoming?

head lice nurse.

 

[Maxtremist]

Are they the biggest deals? No.
But I think with Pierre coming in and KWP going the other way, and now Skipp seemingly going Norwich and Aarons coming the other way, this is us starting to actually play smarter in the transfer window.

Think over the past few years we've really missed a trick in not utilising the loan market. Both for player development but also for getting good connections with teams with promising players we may eventually want.

Nah he deserved it, the amount of abuse he got after Eriksen scored and he was just staring back at us fans behind the goal was pretty funny.

I seem to remember him tripping over his own net aswell? I was right behind the goal for the Eriksen winner, felt so sweet considering everyone around us had left

I could understand people leaving, it was a cold day and pissing down with rain and we never looked like we were gonna score, but I was always gonna stay just in case, I went ape shit haha.

Must admit I like this loan a lot. Norwich are a footballing side and they seem to lack steel in midfield. Hopefully he'll get a starting berth and play a lot of games in the championship for a competitive side. Could be just what he needs.

Good luck to Amos, hope he continues to build on his career.

 

[absolute bobbins]

Let’s face it, if we sign Joe Hart, he isn’t becoming our 3rd choice goalkeeper.

fourth?

 

[Saoirse]

Not totally in love with this move. As far back as 2018 he played 8 league games, most of them starts in the first half of the season, and looked very good - that's arguably the time he was definitely good enough for should have then gone on a Championship loan, and by now should probably have progressed further. I trust the club though if they think this is the right move for him, and hope he manages to kick on - he's still extremely young.

 

[NickHSpurs]

Hopefully a sweetner for one of their full backs and really good experience for Skipp.

 

[Guntz]

Think this is a really good move for him.

He'll play a lot of games and Farke plays a good style of football.

 

[cider spurs]

Think the brutality of the Championship will do him the world of good. Not forgetting that hopefully regular playing time will be a plus also.

Hopefully a good loan move for him.

 

[Cochise]

I think it's the right move for Skipp. There will definitely be plenty of game time there for him.

 

[Spurs Lodge Kittens]

I hope Skipp chose Norwich on the guarantee of game time over the others. Felt like too often in years gone by when players did go on loan they went places where they ended up rarely playing. Like Norwich is a bigger team than Huddersfield and Reading but will he definitely play there more than at those two? Fingers crossed.

 

[Montalbano]

Would’ve loved him going to Wolfsburg to play in the Bundesliga and Europa League. Reckon he could break into their midfield too [if they don’t plan on bringing anyone else in]. Hopefully he has a starting role for Norwich and tears up the Championship.

Could certainly be a sweetener in discussions for Aarons too.

 

[nedley]

He'll be second choice and Gazza will be off. Enabling us to get in another foreign body.

This is just my opinion. He may well come in as 3rd choice but I fully expect us to be open to offers for Gazzaniga

 

[RichieS]

Maybe Hart will be second choice and one of the academy lads will be third choice while the other goes on loan. There's the option there to switch the loanee in January as well.

Sorry wrong thread.

Think he’s more likely to benefit from playing all season for Norwich in championship then going to newly promoted Fulham who are likely to struggle and will end up chopping and changing line-up.
