Brilliant news. Can't wait to see him in action.

Looks pretty suited to the Spurs shirt, doesn't he?

Yep looks suited. Just can't wait for next season now, hopefully this is the first of many great signings.

As others put he's probably going to be put into LM.

Given he didn't sign for Man U probably because they couldn't garentee him games there, even though with heinze's future in doubt which would mean he'd only be competing with Evra, I'd doubt he'd of signed if he thought he was going to have to compete with two LB's.

From what i hear he is a very attack minded player with a brilliant left foot, so maybe the perfect combination with lennon on the other side, who knows! and given that he's also acclaimed for his defensive skills will provide good support for Lee or AE, Lee's performances were getting better and better and with good support i think him and AE can really develop. Perhaps he was the better option over Baines for this reason, he may yet solve two problems in one (which would be handy!) only time can tell.

Yet again Jol and the board have snapped up one of the best youngsters around at the moment.

Loving it.

Brilliant.

Great prospect, great that it's only £5mill upfront, great set piece taker. Great start to the summer!

Woohoo, £5m is a snip, lets not forget he does the jumpy spinny celebration worthy of £5m alone!

Great to have a genuine left peg and a set peice threat although I would argue Berbatov and Jenas already possess that too (not a bad thing though to have more, or an out and out taker plus back up).

Not sure we've got him for LM but 3 LB imply one is going, unless Lee can go to LM?

I 'd like to see Lee tried at right back. He is right footed after all and he might even be able to get in decent crosses from his more natural side.Could well be usefull cover for Chimbonda

Lee as right-back seems reasonable for me as well.

However, we should go and get a real LM/LW, as with the long season underway players tend to drop form, injure themselves, get tired, etc.
