  1. 1. Would Toby Alderweireld be a good player for our squad?

    • Yes, he can become a starter here
    • Yes, he would be a decent squad member for our 60+ games
    • No, not at all

But Azpilicueta did kind of the same thing..

Pardon my ignorance but isn't Alderweireld's name easier (or straightforward) to pronounce? With Azpilicueta, people already get the first syllable wrong.

Well now that you mention it... He did :D

But at least we had faith in our fans at first, we waited some time until we noticed people were joking a out his name. Tottenham did it straight away...

Joking, I just found it funny because I was actualy wondering how to pronounce his name too :D

That was one of the most cringe-worthy moments in our history; seeing how many people couldn't pronounce his name. Az-Pil-A-Cuet-A. They made it seem so hard but all they had to do was break up the word.

Assuming you mean that to spell out, in English, the correct way to say Dave's name then I'm afraid you have it wrong. Maybe not so easy then.

In any case, it was just funny not serious. The Dave song includes a pronunciation of Daves surname after all, albeit the same incorrect version you've given.

Good grief ... Azpilicueta's name is a cake walk to pronounce. 

Ahl-der-weh-rellt 

Know this guy already when he was at Ajax'. Great defender but Spurs will never sell him. Not at this period in time and also because we're Chelsea lol.

CHELSEA are lining up a ‘double your money’ move for Spurs defender Toby Alderweireld. (Times) #CFC

 

Antonio Conte’s side have made an enquiry about the Belgium star’s interest in leaving Tottenham. (Times) #CFC

 

Alderweireld has 3 seasons left on a contract that pays a basic £49,000/week & 28-yo could expect to double that amount. (Times)

More and more bullshit. How do the papers get away with this? 

If you reward people for doing something, they will continue to do it. As consumers of media we lap this stuff up so, naturally, they keep pumping it out. Alderweirald's agent is almost certainly the source of this story as he chases an improved deal for his client. Good story, good source. Of course it's going to be published.

Us, City and Utd still keeping an eye on his contract situation. Spurs can single handed extend his contract until 2020 but then a clausule for transfer fee of 28m€ will be activated.

Is there any chance that we'll actually sign him? I know we are reportedly interested but a lot will depend on whether we'll continue stick with the back 3 - aka will Conte stick around? - and what we're gonna do with Luiz and Cahill.
