rijit Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) It's going to be interesting to see who our new def mid is going to be as there doesn't seem to be any stand out candidate Cant see further than benteleb for that position alfie, and tbh dont really want to. And IMO this so far this summer is our best bit of business http://www.google.co.uk/url?q=http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11675/9905426/new-long-term-deal-for-tottenhams-nabil-bentaleb&sa=U&ved=0CBMQFjACahUKEwij7Zf38-vGAhWSK9sKHbdQCV8&usg=AFQjCNE4_mYsEcQXzHyWb3X7z-s18uSsQw Next year could well be the 'year of the benteleb' rijit Edited July 21, 2015 by rijit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we replace Mason with a defensive mid and having already bought Toby then surely we must be stronger defensively.

He's a central midfielder. Thats the role Poch wants him in. He's extremely versatile as all talented players and can do a good job in the defensive role when needed but this is under utilising his abilities. Thats why we are looking for a new defensive mid. It will hopefully free up Bentaleb so we will get even more out of him. He's also arguably the best left back we have!!! Mason has a lot of huff and puff but gives the ball away too much and imho is no more than a decent squad player. What we are desperate for is a defensive mid to create a blanket infant of the back four and allow Bentaleb to break forward more. Last season Bentaleb spent most of his time clearing up after Mason. Maybe a bit harsh but Mason's inability to keep the ball was telling. Edited July 22, 2015 by carmine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Man Citeh have reportedly been sniffing around our very promising youngster Josh Onomah so its good news he's just penned a new contract.

sotsira Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Apart from needing central/defensive midfielders, don't we still have a problem with the right side of midfield or are we going to rely on Lamela & Townsend again for next season?

But you never know, one day Sterling might just prove himself to be a world class player rather than a good prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's going on with Lennon? I think Lennon will be going, perhaps Townsend, if so hopefully they will get a replacement for him, other than that perhaps a mobile centre forward who can also play on the flanks.

carmine Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Adebayor, Soldado, Chiriches, Lennon and Townsend have not travelled to Denver. Looks like the expected Pochettino clearout is going to be completed. If all done and we get a DM and Berahino it bodes very nicely for next season with the manager having "his" team in place and a far more balanced squad.

Townsend got a shoulder injury will be out for 3-4 weeks, but looks like he'll be back in contention for the right midfield position together with Lamela this season. With the other 4, Levy is desperately trying to offload but probably playing his usual hard ball tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
