Alex Pritchard

[Brian Fantana]

He'd be a great signing, but not at the expense of Knockers.

If we want top two we need to be able to rest Kayal and Stephens and cover injury and suspension - Sidwell can help, but we need more cover to share game time. I hope this a serious message of intent as an addition not a replacement

 

[Seasidesage]

I wonder if his injury will put people off, I wanted him to be given a chance at WHL this year.

from previous evidence he is too good for the championship, which is great if you can sign him!

I agree. He needs a run of games and not sure he will get that at Spurs and at 23 he probably cannot wait any longer.

Would be a very, very good signing. Is he not a winger?

Genuine LOL, very good!

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Hughton has always preferred 4-4-1-1 in the past, and even last season Baldock generally played off Hemed. I suspect that is the thinking if this is true

 

[N17]

Most Spurs fans like Pritchard. Sorry to see him leave but glad to see him join someone like BHA.

Good luck to the lad.

We would basically have the best 11 in the league if we got him in and sold no one else. He played central at Brentford.

Be interesting to see how this develops.

has he ever played that role for Brentford though ? Be a bit daft paying 8m for someone that isn't proven in a certain exact position.

Personally , I think Stephens will be off and Pritchard would be his direct replacement as a central AM. Unless he was a winger at Brentford which cant recall ! In which case Knocky going

He normally played just behind Andre Gray. Judge and Jota out wide and Diagouraga and Douglas in CM.

Do we only scout wingers? Or is Knockie on his way?

We could put out a team including Lua Lua, March, Murphy, Skalak, Knockaert, Bjordal and now Pritchard with Elvis, Balders, Harper and Towell as support on the bench. Just need a keeper, a centre back, a centre forward to add a spine!

 

[Da Man Clay]

He would be an excellent signing. A move to 4-4-1-1 with Murray/Hemed and Pritchard just behind would be brilliant.

its written in the stars!

I can already hear warren say the words:

"i'd like to see 'prick hard' get a few more touches"

 

[albionite]

Very good player but £8m if true take it that we won't be after a marquee striker as well

 

[Marshy]

I'm 99% certain he plays central

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Very good player but £8m if true take it that we won't be after a marquee striker as well

Why not? Must mean, if true, that either Stephens or Knockaert are off. Perhaps both.

That attack was ridiculous - best attacking team ive seen for a few years. He is basically a good version of Jonny Williams.

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

Very good player but £8m if true take it that we won't be after a marquee striker as well

But we would potentially not need one with him taking on the Baldock role and Hemed/Murray up top

Hemed was great when he was being given chances last year and I really rate him. his return for a first year in the country was brilliant. Even more this year and we are laughing. I would take Pritchard and Duffy with no exits and be over the moon!

I see him more as an attacking midfielder than a winger, playing just behind a striker (baldock role). But yes unless we are selling players and he is the replacement. I hope not,

 

[Marshy]

Maybe he is the new no10 to replace Baldock
