StevO Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I’d take him. Not sure how much better than Coleman he is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Would be a stupid signing. Something Walsh or Allardyce would do.Probably peaked last summer so his price will only be going down. Almost certainly bullshit, Brands is not going to spend 20 million on someone who's value is only going to decline. Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted March 26, 2019 Report Share Posted March 26, 2019 Will not be happening at all. We are at a different model now. Brands will be buying young players in affordable wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are less risk and less time until they are capable of having an impact. Of course he will buy up and coming talent, but first team ready players are a must too.

Btay Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Only positive for trippier is he never solely relied on physical attributes like Coleman. Like Zabaleta and Baines - could play another 4 years at a solid level given his footballing ability. Shukes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we only had kenny and needed another more experienced mentor at this position sure Trippier would make sense, but coleman is locked in for like 5 more years, no need for Trippier. Get the young guy and have coleman mentor him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the young guy and have coleman mentor him. Trippier is 2 years younger, has CL experience (I assume) and hasn’t had a major leg break which will impact him as much as he gets older. Coleman’s contract is until June 2022, so only 3 years not 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not desperate for him to come but I see the advantages; experience, good player, can fill a gap whilst Kenny goes on loan and gains experience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48494611 Not a link to us but with him speaking out I’d want us to be contacting him.

Sibdane Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 I don't think he fits the Brands model. He'll be 29 in September, and I don't think he's better than Coleman on his day. I'd rather bring in a younger replacement. In a couple of years we'd have to replace both, and I imagine he'd be on decent wages and even harder to get rid of then. This wouldn't excite me at all. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been a big part in Spurs’ rise, has CL experience and while Coleman’s form since his injury has been improving, he’s not the same Seamus. All depends on the price for me, but he could be a good stopgap for 2-3 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We simply can't offer the two of them enough games to make both of them happy anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seamus has 3 years in him, max I reckon, so maybe a RB isn’t essential but, again, depending on the price, I’d like a player like Trippier to give him a run for his money for those 3 years.

c1982 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 I’d prefer a young right back to come in and put pressure on Coleman... are Kenny or Holgate up to it? I’m not sure. Wan Bassaka is class but being touted at £50m+, I like Aarons at Norwich, James at Chelsea and Bogle at Derby are getting a lot of praise - there’s plenty out there - upgrades on Holgate/Kenny? Good enough to take Coleman on for his spot? I don’t know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Trippier would want closer to 100k/w which is would be a bit steep just for cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggytop Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Doesn't fit Brands vision, so I doubt this would be a starter for us, and I rather have a youngster pushing Seamus for a place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 22 Report Share Posted August 22 It's not ideal signing yet another old full-back that has a lot of mistakes in him but he couldn't possibly be worse than Young. I hope. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post c1982 Posted August 22 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 22 This will split opinion as many will be transfixed on his age/short term fix. Yes, it would be another short term fix - I expect it can only be a loan - possibly with an option but he’ll come here as our strongest full-back by far and the fact that he can cover left back is a bonus. Positives for me are: - he improves us - another right-foot set-piece option - allows Dixon to go out on-loan or develop in the u21s rather than being thrown in - allows Paterson time to get fully fit rather than rush back in - maybe even allows us to sell/loan him out as, let’s be honest, it hasn’t exactly worked out so far - Dyche has a great relationship with him so no more Young at right back This short term option works for me.
