19-year-old Kion Etete has scored 4 goals this season, and twice in his last two outings for Northampton, where the boy is on loan.
This goal against Tranmere Rovers demonstrated one hell of a touch, and after this midweek’s events make one wonder if Tottenham might fare better if he was featuring in the Europa Conference League, out of preference to some of the alternate options.
Given the lack of confidence in our squad, there could be an argument made for all of these players becoming specialists for cup competitions, until the club is able to compete meaningfully outside the Premier League. This is not a new idea, and I recall suggesting the Lewis Holtby be given the armband for our second string, some years ago. It would be a good way of taking pressure away from whoever the coach was…
