3 Players Tottenham Need To Offload

For me, Andre Villas-Boas did the best business in the Premier League during the summer, despite letting Gareth Bale secure his switch to Real Madrid. On the whole, Tottenham now look like a far stronger outfit which I consider good enough for a top four spot, but as hard as the Portuguese coach tried to rid his side of deadwood, I still think there is room for more departures. Here are three players I think Spurs should offload.

1) Emmanuel Adebayor

It’s common knowledge that Villas-Boas wants rid of the Togolese forward after a questionable season last time out. The arrival of Roberto Soldado has further pushed Adebayor’s future into doubt and it’s unlikely that he will feature again for the north London side.

2) Jermain Defoe

This is more from the point of the striker himself, as I am a big fan. It would frustrate me if Defoe’s career plummets as a result of Soldado’s signing so I think Spurs should release him from his shackles. Saying that, there are few strikers who I would rather have coming off the bench than Defoe, so unless another face comes in he won’t be going anywhere, I would have thought.

3) Gylfi Sigurdsson

Despite his brace on Saturday against Norwich, I still believe that the Iceland international is the weak link in the Spurs midfield. They are overflowing with talent in the middle, and it comes down to two players, in my mind, who are the most droppable – Sigurdsson and Lewis Holtby, and I think the latter has a bit more about him than the former.

What do you reckon Spurs fans? Don’t shoot me, I am more than happy to hear you opinions.
