We discovered earlier this morning that Kyle Walker-Peters is though to be close to agreeing terms with Southampton, and despite occasional good deeds, Serge Aurier fully encapsulates the ‘accident waiting to happen’ epithet.
It now emerges that Jose Mourinho may have an ace up his sleeve in the shape of Middlesbrough’s Djed Spence. The 19-year-old has been spoken of favourably by Boro’s latest gaffer Neil Warnock, who revealed to ESPN that he suspected Spence wasn’t long for the Championship and told him after just a couple of weeks, that he’ll only have himself to blame if he didn’t get to the very top.”
The young Englishman came up through the ranks at Fulham, where Jose Mourinho Jr plied his trade during the same period in 2017. It’s not inconceivable Jose Snr was at least aware of the boy from those days.
Looking for positives and beyond Warnock’s reference, there’s the matter of a £10million fee, which in today’s climate would make Djed reasonably priced, at least. Question is, if Spurs were grab him, should they take him in, or let him loan out a while?
The words “Jack” and “Clarke” come to mind.
Serge has become a liability I’m afraid, I’d rather have Tripps back! We need a ready to go RB for next season, not another Sessegnon though.
The whole world has now seen Serge’s mistakes
we have to get somebody in.
I recall Boro had a couple of decent defenders in the cup games
No more projects for the moment please. We need players ready to go now. If he’s ready buy him
