FireFox Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Sounds like he'll be allowed to leave after the transfer window closes.
ian_marshall Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Wow... if this actually happens it will be a great achievement and will also add some rationale to the decision to let Walsh leave. As valuable as Walsh was to us, realistically age isn't on his side so to have a younger version who has his whole career ahead of him would be a great indication of the owners ambitions moving forwards. This will also send a real message to the rest of the league that we mean business and aren't here simply to make up the numbers. Furthermore it's a big blow to Spurs as I imagine that they perecive themselves ro be a bigger club. Hopefully the rumours have some substance.
SemperEadem Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Those asking for Powell need to know that he is at Derby as Nigel's assistant.

Tielemans63 Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 This guy has got an excellent reputation. Would be a great coup if we could get him on board.

According to the Telegraph, Rob MacKeinze who worked at LCFC on the scouting/analysis side and joined Spurs is to leave too but joining Nige at Derby
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Who's he signed that's actually been a success in the last few years? Not being sarcastic about it but I can only think of Dier & Alli. Who are both amazing players, did he sign any others that I've missed?

RoyFox Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Undoubtably the best person for the job, helped Southampton to the Premier League with countless bargains, and made some superb signings for Spurs. 20 years younger than Walsh too, inspired. Maybe Rudkin was involved, if so, we all need to give him some credit where it's due (for a change!).
Rigga Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 Was at Southampton before Spurs.. Rodrigues,Wanyama,Clyne,Yoshida,Pelle,Long,Lovren,Mane and Forster are just a few signings during his time there

Grey Fox Posted 9 August 2016 Posted 9 August 2016 It makes you wonder why he's leaving a club like spurs to come here. I assume they rate him and will have tried to persuade him to stay? Spurs fans undoubtedly see themselves as a bigger club that us. He obviously doesn't.
