Dan James on loan probably isn't as shit of a signing as it first seems to be honest.
Spurs are built to play on the counter against anybody even remotely competent, a pure pace merchant to come on late adds something dangerous to Spurs' attack.
He doesn't need end product when you've got the likes of Kane and Son in support to lay it off to.
Considering they were heavily linked with Traore for the past 18 months who is essentially the same player it's not a terrible signing and on loan there's no risk.
