superfaisty
Nico Claesen
Just showing my age, and not hate by on the current set up but growing up supporting spurs we were always known as a team with wizard wingers (though of course no correlation with consistent success on the pitch).
Whether it was waddle or Anderton or Ginola or little ruel fox or Jose Dominguez or illi Dumitrescu or bale before he got too good for us, Lennon in his early years, we had a history of producing the odd good winger.
I still cannot play football manager without having some wing options.
Maybe it's a sad indictment of how the modern game has developed but there is absolutely a dearth of quality wingers at spurs and in the league in general.
I was minded of this when I thought how Poch' has taken us forward as a team that relies heavily on the full backs to provide width, which worked when you had walker rose but is hard to replicate when you don't.
Is the lack of wing options at the club worrying? Do we have to accept that if we want to succeed we can't afford the luxury of a wing wizard?
