Do we need to sign a play maker (to do the job Modric used to)?
Maybe we already have one? Or maybe you don't need one to be a top four team?
I'm slightly worried that, for all our muscle and energy in midfield we are lacking creativity and someone to run the game for us. Watching us last season there were a lot of games where we passed the ball side to side without much to show for it. In fact I'd go as far as to say that a few of the first half performances were among the dullest I've seen from Spurs in a long long time.
I'm not convinced Dembele is that player, we have sold Hudd who could do a job there for part of a game at least, Carroll doesn't look like getting much playing time. I haven't seen enough of Paulinho or Capoe to know whether they can do that job. none of the touted transfer targets seem to be a creative playmaker as such. I do know that Soldado, good as he might be, can't score without the ball.
What do people think about the need for a playmaker or otherwise.
