So although he’s only 18, Archie has had more experience of football life than many senior players before he joined Spurs from Leeds last year.
But in Archie Gray he has a young man who ticks both boxes despite only making his full Premier League debut in December.
Closer to the bottom three than the top six in the Prem — like United — out of both domestic cups and just the Europa League left with just over three months of the campaign to go.
But if you had to pin it to a Premier League club, it’d be Ange Postecoglou’s side every day of the week.
If I had the choice of who I’d like to manage, it is Spurs every time as Postecoglou has so many stars in his squad.
