Gray is a 'great talent' but 'untested'

We asked for your opinions on Tottenham signing 18-year-old Archie Gray from Leeds United.

Here are some of your thoughts:

Sue: I think this is an outstanding signing for Spurs. My husband is a Leeds fan (and is currently gutted) and we watched Archie throughout last season and were really impressed. He plays with maturity and he is fast and passionate. He is a great fit for the way Spurs play. Very exciting!

Hagafan: Does he strengthen our starting 11? No. Is he going to improve by sitting on our bench? No. Surely we could have signed someone for £40m that would have made us stronger now and not in three years time.

Richard: I hope Archie Gray becomes a star player for us. You can see him slotting into the inverted full-back role, but we do have a poor track-record in developing high-profile players signed at high prices - for example: Juan Foyth, Jack Clarke, Djed Spence, Bryan Gil. Hopefully Ange turns Gray into a superstar, but I'm not holding my breath.

Craig: This deal says more about Daniel Levy. We all know that we should be focusing on getting Eze and Toney, but Gray will command less wages. Spending £30m on an 18-year-old who is unlikely to start, when we're in desperate need of a squad for the here and now, is bizarre. I watched him in the play-off final and he was AWOL. I can only hope I'm wrong, but I'm not excited.

James: Gray might be a talented lad, but he is untested in the Premier League. He is only 18-years-old and I think £30m is a lot of money for such a player. With Joe Rodon signing permanently for Leeds, this deal is similar to the one last season where James Maddison came to Spurs and Harry Winks went to Leicester City - but at least Maddison was proven at Premier League and international level.

Paul: He is a great talent but it is another nail in our academy coffin. We're spending all of this money on talent at Spurs and very few are punching through! I'm glad Ange has got £30m to spare, but much more established players are needed.

Nigel: Djed Spence, Joe Rodon, Ashley Phillips and Alfie Devine were all deemed good enough to sign but not to play, so it is an even shout that Archie Gray will have the same fate. All of the top teams play their younger players on a regular basis, so watch and learn Spurs!
