Palace 1979 Surrey 22 Jan 19 10.51pm | |

Spurs looking to sell for around £12m. That is pretty cheap in todays market. Dutch international, was Dutch 'Talent of the year' before going to Spurs and had a great goal scoring record prior to joining them. Only 24 and well worth a punt. Can't judge him on Spurs career as never really had a chance as always been in Kane's shadow.
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

No player scored more goals than him (Total 10) from inside the 6-yard box in The Netherlands in season 2015-16.

We're not that desperate. How did Bentekkers fair in the same season? Was he in a better league or not? Let's just calm down. No signings are better than any old s***e.

I would be worried that a coach like Pochettino known for improving players has been unable to get a tune out of him. Why would we think we can?

It was Pochettino who signed him for £17 Mill from AZ Alkmaar after the player had a good scoring record at this club and his previous club Almere.He won't be coming to our club.

I agree - I would rather have a smaller squad of quality proven players than buy rubbish for the sake of numbers - we have been there before as recently as last January!

I believe that's exactly what we're missing, someone who anticipates the ball across the box or reacts quickly to loose balls. Benteke is the complete opposite, where he drifts to the back post for headers. Not been great for Spurs but I remember him for the Netherlands against England before he moved and he looked a very good player, think he scored as well that night.

Imagine if he has been in place and in form in the games against Burnley, Grimsby and Cardiff where we had 94 attempts but only 3 goals. I hear what you are saying about cash, but the ongoing clear-out may have released some funds... no?

In all honesty, Eredivisie league goals should count less than Championship goas cause it's just very easy to score there. Good player with a good left foot and slim body to help him move fast, but hasn't really banged in goals for over a year (Fenerbahce loan period included), so really out of form.

Why would we want to sign this waste of space? We already have our own.
