Had his contract terminated at Spurs a few days ago so is available on a free.
He's an attacking right-back so if we signed him he could play when Lamptey is injured. Then the world's slowest man Pascal Gross wouldn't have to play at right wing-back, and we could play Veltman at centre-back.
Thoughts?
He isnt
Liability and a bit of a prick by all accounts. No thanks.
Haha, my 2 Tottenham mates at work say he is.
As a Season ticket holder I am saying he isnt
He makes mistakes, but his mistakes are highlighted more than others because he is deemed to make them every game ( he doesnt)
You dont have 5 goals and 12 assist at full back in 2 proper seasons worth of games if you are rubbish
I would imagine you are right. They are not season ticket holders, although they are supporters who still go occasionally.
Wouldn't he also break the "no dickheads" rule?
Aurier is labelled as a liability because of some high profile errors, but so was Joel Veltman in the Netherlands. We haven't seen a single one from him. I've always felt that Aurier's weaknesses are more exposed in a back four. He's a better wing back than full back and he is usually good for 5-6 goal participations a season. Surprisingly, considering where he has just left, he has been linked with Arsenal. They would probably look a lot better with him and Tierney at Wing Back and White, Gabriel & Tomiyasu in a back three.
Everton penalty last week ?
Right footed defender covering at left back making a challenge from the wrong side. A bit harsh to label it an error.
Fit right in at Shitehurst Park
