hendo should start.

no bias at all. but honestly, I've no idea how good or bad the other english keepers have been this season. I feel like I've heard significantly less about Pickford and his mistakes this season though. Not sure if that's a good thing for him or just a general decline that makes the mistakes stand out less.

 

Two most reliable sources shooting this down. Thank you.

 

I'm not that bothered Bamford isn't in the squad. It's taken him a long time to look even remotely capable in the Premier League and I don't know that we've seen anything to suggest he'd offer anything internationally. Maybe I'll be eating humble pie one day for saying that, but I think he'd be a waste of a shirt.

Bit surprised by the Watkins inclusion. I'd have probably had Ings, but realistically I doubt he's going to the tournament anyway.

 

He was 4th joint-top scorer this season...

 

to be fair, this is what, his 5th season in the premier league?

 

Just saw that Spurs had the second most points dropped from a winning position this season. Who had the most? Brighton. The club who's manager we might hire for our squad.

 

That doesn't really detract from what I said. There's no questioning he's had a decent goal return, but he's also managed to play every single match for Leeds. Others have been more clinical than him, but haven't had the game time. He just doesn't strike me as someone who is going to make a dent on the international stage. Maybe he'll keep this form up and bang 20 in next year to make me look a tool, but I also won't be shocked if he vanishes.

Not quite that bad. He did 4 loan spells in 2 years and managed a whopping 1 goal in 27 appearances.

 

oh ok, I must have read that wrong. just saw the 4 prior stints in the league.

 

Just came here to post this. Not because I think he'll end up at Spurs but because I think Campos (Lillie's DoF) will.

Rumours are circulating that Bale wants to completely retire from football after the Euros.

 

Maybe both will?

 

I'd be so excited if Campos came to Spurs.

Will be heartbroken if Bale retires after Euros. He's one of the biggest reasons I got into the sport and became a fan of Tottenham.

 

Apparently, Galtier already has his heart set on staying in France. It's between Nice and Lyon. Who knows for sure, though?

 

Lyon would be fun. Some great young players there

 

Due to COVID, there's talk growing of moving the Copa America to the US this summer. Would be interested in making a trip to Atlanta for a game if they held any there, ngl.

 

If they do it in the US, there's talk about them doing it at venues where there's no gold cup games at all, so Atlanta, the northeast and the west would all probably get matches.

 

He's more likely to join Hashtag United

 

surely Chelsea aren't stupid enough to re-sign him

 

Hahahaha

 

I know Buendia's stats are off the scale but will he ever be good enough at Premier League level in terms of goals and assists?

 

one goal, seven assists at Norwich in 36 games, but to be fair Norwich were shite and Pukki's goals had dried up a lot.

 

I'm keen on marrying Megan Fox but...

 

Zidane to Spurs confirmed.
