not to forget we missed kaboul and benny too...we also lost king over his retirement. i would sell dawson as he is not as sharp as he used to be. he lost his pace too...
dembele is a good buy, maybe not as good as modric yet, but many rooms for improvement.
on the positive side, sandro has improve significantly and adebayor has found his touch

...
also harry record after the english manager rumours is terrible, avb is doing a relatively better job.give him some time and credit. he willing to spend his effort and time to develop youth like caulker,naughton and livermore
i also think we should give falque more exposure. if we didnt give him much field-time, i see the next boateng and taarabt in the making (i.e. show their true potential once they leave the club)
the only question i have is.... why dempsey havent found his touch yet.
Like many players Dawson is a confidence player.no confidence no gd loh..it is obvious avb is using him as 4th choice, I do expect to c him leaving in jan window.
It is very simple.if spurs wanna rebut for 4th spot they hv to play 2 strikers. Adebayor is vital.Defoe is revived under avb leadership.
guys, dembele is NOT modric's replacement!! no 2 ways about it.spurs just hv to adopt a new attacking approach with him.looks like he'll b out for another 2 wks.
The only praise to avb is he is letting the younger lads a fair go.a bit too early to put caulker in king's shoes but I suppose the progression is pretty decent.
