Tottenham is “stupid” to give the chance to hire Jack Grealish this summer, says Troy Deeney.
Talksport -Pundit says that the Spurs squad needs a major operation this season to be competitive -especially after the loss of two most important players in the first team.

The new manager Thomas Frank was moved this week with a big blow, with the news that he will be for the entire campaign without a start number 10 and Vicecapist James Maddison.
The English midfielder suffered an ACL injury in a pre-season game against Newcastle in South Korea and is now operated on before a long rehab process.
In the same game, the last appearance of Heung-Min son was performed in a Tottenham shirt. The club captain left the North London Club after ten years to sign for La FC in the Major League Soccer.
While Spurs were not exactly quiet in the transfer window, the fans expect a number of major arrivals before the deadline on September 1 – Frank will undoubtedly become.
Mohammed Kudus has arrived in a deal worth £ 55 million from West Ham, while Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich was permanently made to increase her attack options.
Joao Palhinha is also borrowed from Bavaria to strengthen the midfielder, while Kevin Danso’s loan was transformed into a full -time contract and the young defender Luka Vuskovic and Kota Takai have also arrived.
Tottenham made around 19.3 million pounds [an MLS-record $26m fee] on son and around £ 17m in a deal for the sale of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to Marseille.
After losing Maddison against serious injuries and Morgan Gibbs-White, who had to leave Nottingham Forest to leave Nottingham Forest, then missed a new contract on the City Ground, Deeney insists that they need more.
Geralish was strongly connected this summer with a change to White Hart Lane, although the club has since distanced itself from a possible change for MAN City’s outcast.
And Deeney can’t understand why and said it would be a “perfect” fit.

“When Maddison goes down, you have to look at this No. 10,” the former striker of the Premier League told Talksport.
“I still think that it is a perfect landing site for Jack Grialish personally. I think it’s a wonderful landing site.
“We are told that Tottenham has put his interest in Jack, but they talk about someone who has won.
“Whatever people want to say about Jack, he was in the city, he is used to winning it, he knows the level, knows the standard and he is an upgrade for everything Tottenham has reached.
“Maddison won’t play this season and you have missed Morgan Gibbs-White.
“The fact that you are interested in Jack Grialish Down is stupid for me.”

Midfield needs work
In view of his lack of regular campaign at Bayern Munich, in the Bayern Munich doubts to Spurs’ move after his move by Fulham, where he established himself as one of the best midfielder in the country.
Deeney does not share these doubts and insists that he upgrades Tottenham’s midfield immediately, but admits that they still lack a balance in the middle.
“Tottenham has to find out what this midfield looks like, and I don’t think Paulinho is a gambling,” he said.
“When we have made Spurs games, I have always been worried about your midfield. I don’t know who your owner is who your executor is. I think you know what you get with Paulinho. He’s right.
“I understand that he didn’t play so much and he is not in the form of shape, but I don’t think he put miles on the clock for miles in Germany and that he is not injured.
“He is a great player and in my opinion he is an upgrade to Rodrigo Bentancur.”

Good enough for the Champions League?
Tottenham’s Europa League victory has booked a place in the Champions League this season, but are you ready to return to Europe’s top table?
According to Deeney, the honest answer is no. Currently not.
The former Watford star added: “I think it’s a really difficult time for Spurs – can this team compete in the Champions League?
“You look at the two in the middle, Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, if you are fit and available, solid. This is very, very good. But are you fit and available enough?
“Then they have Radu Dragusin, who is already injured, and Kevin Danso. He didn’t do anything wrong, but he went to wolves last year.
“If they had to play these two in the game of the Champions League, I think they are in trouble.

“The full -backs are questionable. Where will one Spence play? Will he be their number one? Will Pedro Poro be her right -wing ranking right -wing memory? I’m not sure.
“The goalkeeper, I’m definitely not sure, personally.
“And what will happen to Richarlison? Because he thought he would go.
“It has to be really difficult for Thomas Frank because he can’t move out because nobody wants to buy these players because of their injury records – many Spurs players were injured last year – 13 at one point.
“And because they can’t get the players out, he can’t get the people he wants, so he probably has to work with what he has.”
