This could be a huge success or a monumental fuk up.
I'm betting on the latter.

Hasn’t scored in his last 45 shots from outside the box. So yeah he probably will against us.Except he will play against us, score a screamer from somewhere outside the box. Will be 100% injured vs City, Liverpool, Chelsea however.
This is the greatest myth of all among United fans. Yes we do, yes we do. We have a great one that will score 20 PL goals this season.Looks like it is going to be done today, I doubt he’ll be in the match day team for Sunday.
It does feel like a bit of a loss now considering we don’t have a right winger, could give Spurs a massive boost with a world class player coming in..
I share similar views, Greenwood will only get better this year. The worry at the moment is whomever steps in for him if he needs a rest or God forbid he gets injured. As you highlighted someone like Perisic would be a good shout to provide quality depth at both wings.This is the greatest myth of all among United fans. Yes we do, yes we do. We have a great one that will score 20 PL goals this season.
His name is Mason Greenwood. Yes he is 19 but he's a top top talent and both Mbappe and Sancho were great at 19, Mason will be too.
And yes he is a centre forward but he can also easily play the inside forward role from the right wing. Hence we are covered at right wing.
What we need is depth. Therefore someone like Perisic would be awesome for us, we dont need to deal with Bale's ego or pay all that money or feel obligated to start him etc.
We just need good players off the bench that can cover left and right wing.
Or we are paying a loan fee and your paying 2/3s .Yeah, think £20m if true would be the total cost to spurs. In practical terms that means covering 2/3 of the wages
I think Greenwood is a tremendous player and can do a great job on the right, but he doesn’t strike me as a natural winger to give us width and put in crosses. I think he will still have a great season by the way, I quite like Sarr and could be a good player for us but if we really are going for Sancho which I really doubt it could be throwing money away.This is the greatest myth of all among United fans.

Golof Bale comes home today.Excited, today will be a good day, BaleDay
Just a shame in an empty stadium can you imagine the roar there would have been!Incredibly excited about this - I'm going to be a bit emotional when I finally see him wearing the shirt again.
Ole or money.I really hope we were never in for him. I really hope it was all just reporting BS/Fakenews.
I know that is such a bummer though I'll be cheering him like a total loon at home.Just a shame in an empty stadium can you imagine the roar there would have been!
I feel he used that when he no longer cared about Madrid, but at the end of the day whats the difference in playing golf and other players playing FIFA and Fortnight.He’s an excellent player. Proven in the EPL and La Liga. Madrid fans are the worst! Im sure he’ll be a success again, quality player. He loves golf ok, but he’s also a quality footballer
Greenwood is a natural 9 who’s so good he can do a more than adequate job on the right - you don’t tie the clubs most natural goalscorer to the wing for a year because “he’ll score goals from there”.This is the greatest myth of all among United fans. Yes we do, yes we do. We have a great one that will score 20 PL goals this season.

You don't tie the players to wings, this is not 90s. That position has evolved over the years and now (or from last 10-15 years) most of the teams best goal scorers plays as wide forward. They don't play as wingers, they play as inside forwards/wing forwards.Greenwood is a natural 9 who’s so good he can do a more than adequate job on the right - you don’t tie the clubs most natural goalscorer to the wing for a year because “he’ll score goals from there”.
We wonder why we fall short so often when ‘good players off the bench’ are deemed acceptable; I quite like Perisic but competition from top talent would enhance the level of our attack not hinder it.
I hope the front 3 stay fit all season but any sustained period out/drop in form means ‘good cover’ then suddenly need to become ‘top class’ - as a club our options from the bench should be there to rival the starting 11 not do a decent job off of it.
Mason is a great talent, he will be a great player but he is 18 and he is not anywhere near being a top level RW. If you look at football by simply reading the stats at the end of the season, you miss 99% of what happens on the pitch. Greenwood scored 10 PL goals which is a solid return for someone so young but he only got one assist & he leaves AWB massively exposed because positionally he's poor (not his fault he's a striker). Those stats are what you'd expect when you accept the fact he is a clinical striker playing out wide and has not grown up playing/being coached that specific role and it shows. Is he our best option there? Yes. Is he close to being among the best RW in the league? No.This is the greatest myth of all among United fans. Yes we do, yes we do. We have a great one that will score 20 PL goals this season.

It is equivalent to you guys signing Ronaldo again. It's a pretty amazing feeling. My two favorite Spurs players of the last 20 years (Kane and Bale) will be playing together in the same team - it's a dream.These are the good times Spurs fans. Enjoy it. This is your piano moment before the harsh cold reality sets in.
I always think that Spurs fans sound like the impression you'd do of Spurs fans if you wanted to take the piss.Tweet
