The January transfer window has now closed for Premier League clubs, and Tottenham Hotspur have signed Conor Gallagher and Souza.
However, they failed to add depth in the attack and at right back. Pedro Porro and Djed Spence are currently sidelined with calf and thigh injuries.
In the attack, they have struggled to score goals and create opportunities this season. They could have used more creativity. Mohammed Kudus, James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski are all sidelined, and Brennan Johnson has been sold.
Bad news for Archie Gray
Meanwhile, Alasdair Gold has now revealed on Football London that Archie Gray is now facing a position change after a disappointing window. The young midfielder is likely to operate as a right back in the coming weeks. He had to operate in a makeshift position as a central defender due to an injury crisis last season, and he will have to sacrifice his natural role once again.
Gray is a tremendous talent with a bright future, and Tottenham must handle his development carefully. He needs to operate in his natural role in order to fulfil his potential as a midfielder. Tottenham should have invested in a defender after the recent injury crisis at the back, which could have allowed the youngster to play in midfield.
Gray could be useful as a right-back
It will be interesting to see if he is deployed as a right back in the coming weeks. He has impressed in multiple positions since joining the club, and there is no doubt that he could be a very useful option for Tottenham until Porro or Spence return.
That said, he is a specialist midfielder, and Tottenham must groom him for that position rather than use him as a utility player. It could hamper his development as a midfielder in future.
Tottenham fans will certainly be disappointed with the window overall. Even though they have signed two impressive players, they failed to plug the gaps in key areas.
