Keep, Sell or loan

The full back positions have been handled pretty badly by us for a while. It's why we've had to resort to playing CBs or midfielders in those positions at times.

Back ups should ideally be players who can challenge the first choice players in the future, and if they don't look like doing that after a while then you move them on.

Do many clubs have this though?

I know tripper and davies aren't good enough but poch was rotating full backs at our best and the form never dipped

Walker wasn't rotated much. It was only until he decided he wanted to leave that Trippier had regular starts.

Davies used to do a decent enough job a few seasons back. Never as good as Rose but decent. Now he's very average.

If you're a big club with ambitions of winning the big prizes I think that's how you act isn't it?

Agree that last word on spurs is the best spurs pod out there.

If we needed to sell players to fund a rebuild then ndombele and Alli IMO would be prime candidates. Can’t see us solving rb and lb this summer so I would focus on rb and see if rose can have a future under mourinho this season. Especially now verts has gone, so one less left back cover player.

Loan for foyth and skipp, with a view to sell both and I don’t think they will make it at spurs.

Chronic is still around

Btw would love ndombele to stay and have a great season. Just can’t see it. Think his attitude stinks and Jose is a stubborn man

If and I hope we don’t get rid of Ndombele then get the money and go get a creative player.

I don’t want any inter rejects even if it’s the decent CB they want rid off

Lee McQueen chats so some crap but he's jokes and brilliant on the pod.

Of course. It seems the big clubs can manage their squads a lot better and get far fewer injuries also.
