Dr The Singh Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 The type of player pearson likes, young hungry, does what he's told (takes up the bum on request) Mate who is a Swindon fan, rates him but thinks he is championship level!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmayne7 Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 but mark davies is hardly the 'real deal' is he? Well, if he didn't get crocked he'd be bummed by the media as he's exactly the type of player that they cry out for to be in an England shirt.

Poznan34 Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 Sounds like a "Pearson signing." Young, cheap, talented, from a big club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vindaloo FOX Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 seen this lad many times for Spurs youth , he has a great free kick on him. I would love to see this lad here but one thing tells me its just bullshit Daily Star . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.Lisemore Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 15 assists in 31 games is very impressive. This deal reminds me a lot of Ben Marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_lad_92 Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 City linked with the Possible signing of Alex Pritchard for £500,000 from Spurs:) 15 assists in first half of season at Swindon on loan, could be a promising young buy should we go ahead with it:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFS Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 Looks quality but we've got 4 players competing for two spots currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 Looks quality but we've got 4 players competing for two spots currently. Bit confused by comments to this end. We currently don't have a dedicated attacking midfielder in the squad, unless you count Knockaert. To me, signing a player like Pritchard would signal an intent to be more versatile in our tactics. Who plays 442 in the Prem? It's not common. I can well see us learning to play 4231. Drinkwater, James and King would all be excellent sitting deep in that system but I wouldn't put any of them up at "AMC." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week it was GTF and Schlupp, if this lad comes in it turns into Hammond, Schlupp and GTF. All to which we're still paying wages. Spending 500k on this lad, albeit him bringing versatility doesn't really make sense in terms of squad harmony and the financials to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blur Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 His stats is more impressive if you consider the fact he plays in an underachieving side. One for the future but at this stage we might need to buying players that can keep us in Prem if we go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgfualol Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 We'd be so strong with this guy added to the squad. Our bench would be insane. And our reserves . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzzell Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 Never heard of him. But 15 assists in 31 games is impressive. A typical Pearson target, for 500k could be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 He looks a very decent talent based on some of those videos and it's clear from them that he does have something about him. I like his style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why we should be on the hunt for he next Adam Lallana (2nd best English player in this role IMO, more realistic than Rooney though).

Drinkwater, James and King would all be excellent sitting deep in that system but I wouldn't put any of them up at "AMC." Agree with this. A very different option and could be a real game changer being introduced. With injuries and suspensions to take into account a fifth and more importantly different midfielder would be most welcome. Also with 3 wingers for 2 spots it remains possible, as with the Ipswich game, we change to 4-3-3 due to a suspension/injury (albeit less likely) but this guy gives us another option of playing 1 behind the strikers.People concerned about Hammond loosing his place is a bit general. I think Hammond will command a place on the bench for known physical opponents. But a player like Pritchard would be useful at home and in tight away game. I think the quoted poster alluded To a multitude of options being on the bench and those options would still include Hammond in the correct occasions. Alternatively we could buy and then loan him out again to continue development but I'd like him in our squad. Think spurs make the wrong choices with their youth players - why is Kane still there and this guy out on loan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez of Mahrez Posted 21 January 2014 Share Posted 21 January 2014 He was in tears when he went off injured in his debut on loan for Peterborough against us, walked the length of our stand with some of our fans giving him a dog's abuse. Can't remember who flattened him, possibly Wes? Ah, not quite debut. One of his early games for them, possibly second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hack Posted 22 January 2014 Share Posted 22 January 2014 He is a playmaker a player that can glide past the opposition in the centre of the park and can provide assists, we don't have one of them on our books so would be the the type of player we would need. More like a Derby, Will Hughes type!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs are and it works for them when you have players like Eriksen, Adabayor and Soldado in your side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
