The Spurs Youth Thread - 2018/19

[Tom Hep]

Noticed Man United U15/U16 squad in the Northern Ireland Youth Tournament (formerly known as the 'Milk Cup') includes Omari Forson (which I knew about) but also Reuell Walters both formerly with Spurs.

Walters has just started playing for them, so he is likely either still on trial or just completed his trial.

Luton showing an interest in CCV . Although they state nowhere near a deal at the moment

 

[Westmorlandspur]

Any news on Edwards. Not mentioned anywhere this week

Kane Vincent-Young.......was he one of our youth a few years ago. Being chased by Charlton and Luton. Currently at Colchester

Yes he was. He suffered a lot of injuries.

Looks like hes off to stoke

Onomah confirmed to Fulham! Good move - i think he'll thrive with Parker and Wells there. Will definitely watch more Championship games with Amos, Clarke, Onomah and CCV playing.

Now is the time for Josh to prove us wrong and show what he can do. Coaching staff will know him and what he does best. It’s up to him.

Ex-Spur news: Massimo Luongo has joined Sheff Wed from QPR for an undisclosed fee.

Loaning Troy Parrott out at this stage in his development makes zero sense.

Firstly, we need to control his playing time and the treatment he gets for inevitable injuries, to ensure he doesn't play too much at his age or get pressured to play through injuries.

Secondly, we need him to become a Club HG player, and as I understand it, he only accrues Club status whilst he's actually at the famous Spurs.

Thirdly, now Dybala sadly hasn't happened, Troy is probably the only striker option we have after Harry Kane who can hold the ball up with his back to goal.

Fourthly, unlike Llorente, TP is mobile and suits our way of playing much better.

I say keep him and let our coaching team see if they can develop him as much in a season as they've done with Skipp.

 

[JKendall13]

So let's say Parrott, Skipp, and Tanganga are now first team or on the first team periphery based on preseason. Who are our bets for who is next to make it to the first team periphery?

Harvey White? Oakley-Boothe? Eyoma? Lyons-Foster? Roles? Others?

 

[muppetman]

Wonder if we put a buy back clause in Onomah's deal? Either way I hope he takes this chance and shows what he can do.

 

[Locotoro]

The luongo move is good for us. Amos will get more playing time

Wondering this myself. I still hold an irrational and baseless hope that he'll still get a chance here. Surely he has nothing to lose, abd everything to gain.

Training with Brentford was the last news about him. Agent Trying to get someone to sign him in the championship.

What a shame

What a shame

last news was that he's back with us doing fitness work, i assume the 2nd part is just speculation.

him going abroad(probably germany or holland) in the next few weeks seems the most likely outcome now, though like @Johnny J says i still won't give up hope that the situation miraculously turns itself around.

Herc in the player thread in the transfer forum said "Yes!" to the question of whether there was a buy-back or sell-on. Not sure which one it refers to (or both?) or amounts or anything, but good to hear. I really hope Josh kicks on there. Seems like a good situation in which to land.

Harvey white definitely ahead of his midfield counterparts. I’d love a flair player like Shashoua or markanday to have an impact. And any of BLF Walcott Binks have a chance although CB is hugely competitive now.

It’s not a shame. He’s got great talent but he acts like a pratt . It’s his own fault. It’s up to him .either he grows up or he falls by the wayside.
There will always be someone to take a ch@nce on him. Same as R@vel Morrison. Interesting to see Ravel trying to defend the actions of Saido Berahino as described by Glen Johnson on Talksport today.
Top clubs these days can not afford to carry idiots who may have a great talent.
Problem with footballers these days is that someone will always make excuses for them
Fortunately for us, Pochettino is not one of those people.
Dele Alli might find this out next season. As our squad stands I don’t see him as a first choice.

 

[Sweech]

I so desperately hope Tanganga can get some first team minutes this year.

I was beyond impressed with the job he did in pre-season.
