I personally don't think we will sign a centre back, I think harry has been using Jake Livermore as cover in the Europa league games, he has every attribute to be a great CB, could save us a few quid!

^^most of this post i heard on Soccer Saturday. You have just inserted names to suit your arguement.

Naughton was regarded as the better of the Kyles when we signed them. Well if he is anything like Kyle Walker, then we are in for a treat.

He can play anywhere across the back four for the record, but just imagine he was Walker level and Walker pushed up to RM. Whilst I like Lennon, the expectationof the club has moved on. Spurs need an Eden Hazard level player or a Walker to step up two gears if we are to replicate Bale on the left.

Naughton plays Right Back!

In all honesty ... From a clubs point of view financially ... King,Gallas,Dawson,kaboul,bassong,
Why would they get another in even if they sold bassong ... Yes Dawson injured for god knows how long , king whilst one of the best English defenders when fit hardly ever is .. Although I must say good so far .. .. And Gallas injury prone too .. The club surely most look on and think well we have X amount of money going into the back line and really need strength in the right of mid field and striking positions why spend money on a cb especially when we have loaned players like Naughton, caulker
Granted the one being injured but the other performing quite well in the EPL why would the club throw money at cb when on all honesty apart from the mid field area is our strongest * in terms of man power *
Answer is they wouldn't ... And shouldn't unless they get a young future star and have that player groomed by the experience of Gallas and king ..

Players out
Gomes
Pav
Bassong
And possibly gio
With this I believe the funds would go towards a striker * hope * Damiao
And a young keeper perhaps the one we have been linked with from fc twente
Whilst giving more cb duties to Caulker and Naughton .. And having Townsend fight Lennon for a place on the right flank ..
This would also reduce the wage budget and have no outgoings in terms of transfer fees ..

We should again with bassong going and the only other player would be pav to go.
So 2 out 2 in that would be the most spurs will do in jan I think.

We will because bassong is going
