Harry's decision on Dos Santos?
You know, it just occurred to me amidst the euphoria of VDV's signing; Giovani plays best as an attacking midfielder.

Surely he proved that against Villarreal and Sporting Lisbon. he was class against both, and for Mexico while in that position. Played out wide, he struggles to have any effect on the game, as demonstrated in the first leg of the CL qualifier against Young Boys. So, assuming Harry knows this, and assuming the VDV deal has Harry's approval, can we see this as the end of any potential AM role for Dos Santos at the club?

We cannot argue squad depth being necessary, at least in this position. Modric and Kranjcar would both do fine there. In all probability, Kranjcar would be VDV's backup, if only to keep him happy. And Dos Santos being young, he desperately needs playing time in order to progress at this crucial stage in his career. So are we to assume that Harry has effectively written Dos Santos off as a Spurs player?

I always say with players like taarabt, reto and dos santos that time will tell if the manager was right or wrong !


Funny enough i am not convinced by any of them, but that doesnt mean to say i am right.

I think in my case that none of those named above gave me much confidence when they were actually put on -- or played for the first team, whether as first choice or sub, as i said only time !!!!!

im not convinced about gio. he never inpresses me. he looked woefull when he came on aganst wigan. people say its because hes playing out wide but he played the whole season last season there so he must be used to it.

i also would like him to play up front but unless we get more injurys im sure hes going to be frozen out. we have to many players that can play out wide now and i think harry will stick wiv krankar as 3rd choich on the left or right before gio
