THis is what my journo Spurs mate sent me re Mason. He has had a season ticket for 10 years and knows his stuff. "Don't expect him to be a holding player of a midfield general. It's not his game and Spurs stuck a square peg in a round hole because we had no one else. He's a great athlete, needs a bit of freedom to be able to burst forward and support the attack. If he's given a run in the team and gets his touch back then he has a great range of passing, not shy in front of goal either. 5mil well spent if you are below the top 6." That's a very useful and informative post. Sounds like Bentaleb is more the holding midfielder, releasing Mason to get forward and link with Zaha and Bolasie. Seems Spurs are listening to offers for Bentaleb, and maybe Mason too

We should act fast on these two before other clubs become interested and prices sky rocket.

Pretty much what I have also heard regards Mason. He went on 'Loan' to Swindon a couple of years ago signed by Mark Cooper. At Swindon at the time there were a few players with Tottenham connections : Edited by Willo (01 Jun 2016 9.17am)

Exactly what we need - confident on the ball and can find a pass. Get him and Mason I say...and Son if he's unhappy That would definitely help us make the transition from Jedi, Ledley and Punch (i'm not suggesting we get rid of these 3 just that we must plan for the inevitable). Add Lewis Cook from Leeds to this and we'd have a much stronger and composed looking midfield - exactly what we need and would improve Wickham and Gayle no end. Midfielders Out - Lee and Mutch Good post - agreed!

It's an upgrade on Mutch and Lee so would be a good signing if it comes off.

I know it's only YouTube but these two would improve our quality in possession no end.

There's no solid links to any of the 20 players we've been linked with so far...but it's just enough to keep us going until the Euros kick off.

Bentaleb is class. Remember him running the game against us at selhurst a couple years ago. Would be a great player for us i reckon.
