Yep agreed. Spence has all the attributes. He just needs time to get up to speed with Conte. But if carries over his form from last year, I think he'll be our starting RWB before the end of the season.
He does, but imagine the pace and power of our wing backs when spence and Udogie are fully up to speed.

Can't wait! Hopefully will recapture the glory days of Rose and Walker absolutely dominating both wings. That was a huge part of us being so good back then.

Although it may be frustrating as a fan not to see a signing play straight away but let’s just give him time to adjust to take the pressure off him. If he works hard in training, is patient, and gains Conte’s trust, i believe he will be our number one RWB by the new year.

I see this very much like when Walker was sitting in the stands and the bench. We will be calling for him to be played and when he does, he’ll end up being first choice. Like Walker had, Spence has time. Just need to work hard and learn

I'm fairly sure I remember hearing from multiple sources that Spence absolutely did not want to move only to go on loan. Not saying it won't happen, but I doubt Gabby has the inside track.

Premier League clubs cannot loan to another Premier League club a player they have acquired in the same transfer window.

Straight out of the rule book.

Gabby Agbonlahor is a know nothing pundit working for the worst kind of shit stirring, click bait media outfit.

Who in their right minds would give a flying fuck about what he 'thinks'?

With Spurs fans desperate to see Spencein action for the very first time, Conte has issued an update on his new player ahead of the Forest game.

"I was very clear at the start when I said this signing is a really good prospect, he’s a young player. This signing, the club wanted to invest in this player," explained the Italian ahead of the Nottingham Forest encounter. "The difference is clear. To play in the Championship with Nottingham Forest and then with Tottenham, he needs time to adapt himself in many aspects, in the physical aspect and the tactical aspect because now he is working with another coach.

"I’m seeing a lot of desire, a lot of will, from this player to try to reduce this gap and to be ready. With a young player, it’s important to have patience, to work and then to improve. I’m sure Djed for the future will be an important player for Tottenham." ‘

All he can do is keep his head down, show that desire and take his opportunities. The season is so young, three games in and not a single fixture played in any of the three cups. Even Bissouma can't get a start yet. His time will absolutely come and I hope that he grabs it.
