This is spurs
I’ve seen enough fo him to see the talent and ability
I’ve also seen the dearth of decent Cfs
He will not start the season as first choice but I have that feeling he will get a chance and turn the right heads

Loan is quite likely to be fair.

Bert Smith
And that IMO would be the wrong call
I’m convinced he would be better served playing here and getting some lesser opportunities but showing his value
He has earns that IMO because he was standing out in the championship for a very poor side
And i say that as someone who watched him play around 9/10 games (picture quality at their hime ground was bad) and also got feedback from my nephew who was scouting in that division as part of his job at derby

I’d like to give him a chance as well but think we are in the minority.

Everyone wants new and shiny
I think that’s what hurts us
We signed his many young is left wingers yet we have Moore to come through and also LWB
They are top top talents, not normal kids working hard
But if they can’t see a pathway just like Vuskovic, they will leave and the kick on is IMO greater than just losing a player as it sends a message

If we had played Lankshear last season I could see the logic behind TF’s strategy of having Porro ping in 30 crosses per game.
In all seriousness, I’m getting bored of watching every team building out from the back and the CBs pass it back and forth for five minutes. A part of me would like to see us lump it up to a big CF every now and again just to put pressure on the opposition CBs, and Lankshear has the physicality for this.
I know this may sound a little Neanderthal-ish but I want to see action and be entertained, and a lot of modern football is so scripted that the unpredictable has been taken out of it.

I'm not holding my breath on RDZ unleashing young guys like Lanks this season. I think our new manager wants to build a strong foundation on existing and new senior pros. Then, if he sticks around he can immerse himself in our younger talent pool and get the succession plans in place for them to take over some of the squad roles. That probably means some of them are in the wrong cycle of development for him.
What managers do is let their biases take over. They don't see the older pro's being bang average as the same thing as the young pro's being green. In reality it's probably worse to forgive the older pro a poor game than the young pro making a mistake.

He does though have the track record of backing Ferguson over his established forwards, and that paying off very well for him

What players did he overtake though

Wellbeck, Undav (the current Germany CF) and some Paraguayan guy called Enciso they'd just paid £10m for
Second season Joao Pedro replaced Undav
