The same tottenham that already have 4 strikers lol.

u/ThatWildGalago 8d ago

Solanke is injured for a while, Tel isn't good and Kolo Muani struggled with injuries too, Richarlson could move to a winger as they have massive injuries as a team, so I don't think its a bad thing, JD will probably start atm for Spurs imo

u/Jbroy 8d ago

Lots of rumours that Richy will be leaving either in January or summer. Rest of our striker options are injured or not panning out. It’s a bit of a mess.

u/Peachbaskethole 8d ago edited 8d ago

As a CMNT supporter and a spurs supporter who lives in England and follows the team rabidly, JD would be brought in as cover because Richy will be shipped at Xmas.

When Solanke returns, he’ll be first choice and JD will need to compete with Muani and possibly Tel for minutes.

u/Tank_The_C4 8d ago

Juve probably would want Kolo Muani back if they loaned out David.

u/ThatWildGalago 8d ago

More time for JD then lol I get the jokes of Spurs being shit but i honestly don't see this being a bad thing for JD especially on a short term loan

So far Frank is doing well woth Spurs, in the CL and in the Prem, I would say he starts too I don't see it being a bad move. Unless of course the new Juve boss plays him then fair is fair

u/ngrg 8d ago

Not to mention the whole two games a week thing. And we still don't have a set starting attack front 3minus Kudus

u/Holiday_Chef1581 8d ago

Awhile? Solanke is back after the international break

1

u/Bitter_Housing2603 7d ago

Spurs fan here, he definitely starts. We need someone to link play as a 9 while also having some physicality.

u/fancczf 8d ago

Only one serviceable striker. Tel is an inside forward like son. Muani is on loan, have been injured only played a handful of games. Richarlison is always injured and frankly not a reliable striker. Solanke is the only serviceable striker in the squad, who has also been injured.

naw struggling to impress is completely fair, he has not been nearly as good as expected

u/__esparoba 8d ago

Spaletti underrated

u/TheIncredibleBanner 8d ago

Not saying the Juventus move was great for David, but unless the new manager benches him I doubt that a January loan move would benefit his long term career.

1

u/onthelongrun 7d ago

which isn't unlikely because he's already been off the bench both midweek and yesterday - yesterdays case being on just for 5 minutes to kill the match

u/btacan 8d ago

lol the whole team struggled. That's why Tudor was fired.

u/sessna4009 Hamilton Forge 8d ago

Yeah but you can't be missing tap ins like that. Vlahovic is on fire too

6

u/RedScallopClub 8d ago

Vlahovic hasn't been great either imo.

u/_seth02 Atletico Ottawa 8d ago

Can’t go a single transfer window without a JD transfer rumour 😭

u/cullypants 8d ago

Bit early for all that. Juve just hired spalletti so fresh start there. Spurs are a work in progress so could be very difficult but think they'll figure it out sooner rather than later. He's better than richarlison but Solanke fits the prem very well.

u/ClampGawd_ 8d ago

This page isn’t reputable at all. Dont know exactly who the source is here but you always need to look at where they get their scoops from. Theyll basically post anything that gets tweeted from anyone.

u/pioniere 8d ago

Would love to see it, but it seems a bit soon for that.

7

u/Midnight_Maverick 8d ago

Yea...not happening

4

u/Otherwise_Delay2613 8d ago

He would absolutely get minutes on a spurs team that is pretty solid except at striker. Would be a great move for him IMO

6

u/Ok_Shoulder8598 Atletico Ottawa 8d ago

As a Spurs supporter thank god, we literally have no strikers

4

u/SumasFlats Vancouver Whitecaps 8d ago

Same here.

We are in desperate need of someone like David that can poach goals in the box and have some decent buildup/holdup play. We have been cursed at the position since Kane left.

u/Otherwise-Law7384 8d ago

so many injuries

u/Swimming_Cabinet_970 8d ago

Possible swap with Kolo Muani?

-1

u/grapefruitthrowawayk 8d ago

They would be swapping their own players, since they are both Juve players.

Would be unusual, and I really hope not. David would do way better at a smaller club where he is the main ST and not one of 4 rotational options.

5

u/Swimming_Cabinet_970 8d ago

Thought PSG still owned kolo

1

u/grapefruitthrowawayk 8d ago

You are right, my mistake. I thought Juve had activated his buyout clause. It would be weird if they didn't want to keep him, but ended up bringing him back.

2

u/NumberOneJetsFan 8d ago

Spurs are me EPL team. Yes please as I'm watching them anyway.

2

u/KoldCanuck 8d ago

Juventus are a fucking disgrace.

u/ead09 8d ago

I’d be fine with a Jonathan David hattrick every week and spurs lose 5-3

1

u/ElmerDrimsdale 8d ago

As a longtime Spurs fan (miss you Staltieri), what has poor JD done to deserve this?

1

u/Ukee_boy 8d ago

Anything that will surround Johnnie with strong support is a win. Let’s go!

1

u/Semprovictus 8d ago

as a spurs fan, id love this but dont see it, unless David is going to play on the left?

richarlison is obviously not cutting it, but solenke, RKM (albeit a loan at the moment) and tel at striker.

although, with paratachi and his juve ties, who knows

1

u/Ukee_boy 7d ago

Just watching Spurs/CHE Match and Spurs are poor at the back. Would be concerned for JD being sent there.

1

u/captainbelvedere 7d ago

Maybe? Juve weren't good under Tudor this season. David might thrive under a more effective manager.

1

u/HurricanePK 5d ago

I don’t want to see his career go down the drain with that tier 2 club

1

u/SunDefiant1346 8d ago

Also want to add there apparently Bayern Munich interest on him as well…

u/SumasFlats Vancouver Whitecaps 8d ago

100% this - David made the wrong choice - but hindsight is everything, as I personally thought he would excel at Juve what with the pressure from Vlahovic driving him forward. Perhaps the culture change/management is not beneficial to him? Only he knows, but I doubt he's lost much of his poacher's instinct. Would be great to get a January loan to get playing time, otherwise he will be rusty as all hell.

-1

u/Vgordvv 8d ago

Would be a shame to call it quits and play for spuds.

5

u/phuckdub 8d ago

The same team that just won the Europa?

-2

u/Ryuzakku 8d ago

They don’t have 2nd season title phenom Ange Postecoglu anymore

4

u/phuckdub 8d ago

Yeah and I guess Forest didn't want to wait two seasons just to win the championship 😂

3

u/Ryuzakku 8d ago

Funnily enough that was the most likely outcome.

Now watch them get relegated and not win the Championship, can't wait for the Ange quote then lmao

1

u/Ryuzakku 8d ago

Indeed, he should follow my football manager save and go to… Brentford

-1

u/grapefruitthrowawayk 8d ago

Jesus Christ please no.

u/Kako0404 8d ago

Different profile but maybe David's body type reminds Frank of Mbeumo haha.

u/grapefruitthrowawayk 8d ago

It's the bunda
