And finally, just on Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall, obviously both 18 years old,
00:04
both made a huge impact in this Spurs' size this season. Obviously, you mentioned there hasn't been
00:10
great form, but they have really shown their worth and really shown they've got so much potential in
00:16
the future as well. How important and how good have they been in shining light in Spurs' poor season?
00:24
Yeah, I mean, you know, Archie Gray has been absolutely terrific. I mean, you know, as we've
00:30
said before, he's been asked to play out of position. He probably didn't expect to play as
00:33
much football. I mean, he's played now in every position, practically on the pitch,
00:38
certainly in the back four, but we've never actually seen him in his true position in
00:41
midfield. And, you know, when we do, he's going to be an absolute star. I mean, I don't think it's,
00:46
you know, an over-exaggeration to say that Archie Gray is going to be a generational talent and,
00:50
you know, a potential future captain of this club. I mean, he's had, you know, he shows more
00:55
signs of being a leader than some of the older players. You know, he was trying to nurture Radu
00:58
Dragacin through last night, you know, when Fraser Foster practically threw two in against
01:03
Manchester United. He was the one saying it was my fault, you know, back pass, not your fault.
01:07
And that's a 37-year-old, you know, senior goalkeeper. So, he's been incredible and he's
01:12
oozed class. Yes, he's been caught out of position a couple of times. You know, we've had a couple of
01:17
goals we've conceded where, you know, the back line's pushed up and he's just been a little bit
01:20
slow to push out and it's cost us a couple of goals. But overall, you know, he's been terrific
01:26
and £40 million will probably prove to be a bargain in the coming years because we need to
01:31
build the team around him. He's been fantastic. So, he comes out with a lot of credit from the
01:35
season so far and what must be a tough, tough time for him as well. Lukas Bergvall as well,
01:40
you know, he had a slow start, fair to say. I think that, you know, a lot of people thought
01:43
it might just take a little bit of time to settle coming in with a big price tag from Sweden.
01:48
Obviously, the leagues are sort of poles apart really. But in the last few weeks, he's really,
01:53
really started to show his worth and again, you know, going to be a future star. The fact he's
01:58
keeping James Madison out of the team, you know, probably tells you a lot about Madison's form at
02:02
the moment. But also the fact that, you know, he deserves to be playing. You know, he was excellent
02:07
against Liverpool, whether he should have still been on the pitch is another thing. But he was,
02:11
you know, he was very, very good and he was the one player last night who was trying to make
02:15
things happen. He didn't shy away, he wanted the ball. He's been playing very, very well as sort
02:19
of that eight, but he also can play as a six and I think he's, you know, he's certainly got goals
02:23
in him as well. He's got, you know, terrific technique. So, the two of them, you know,
02:27
come out with real, real, real large amounts of credit and, you know, the goalkeeper only
02:31
been 21, Kinski. He was a little bit shaky against Arsenal but, you know, he's shown signs. I think
02:37
he's going to be a very, very promising signing. We've obviously got Mikey Marr coming back in now.
02:41
He looked good in the second half against Tamworth, albeit, you know, caveat the opposition,
02:45
but a long layoff again he's had with his virus. So, green shoots certainly around the young
02:50
players, but we need that. We're crying out for some experience and some proper leadership to
02:54
really sort of steer us through this difficult path because this is uncharted waters for these
02:59
young guys.
