Football FanCast guest columnist Rhys Thomas believes that Ramos should put full faith in his boy from the valleys.

As Juande Ramos signings go he must certainly have been considered the most understated, but I just wonder if he is the one to take Tottenham by storm. I'm sure not many supporters are yet of aware of the potential and abilities of Chris Gunter, but believe me this guy is some player.

A lot has been made about Aaron Ramsey, but you ask my fellow Cardiff fans who is the greater loss and they will pinpoint Chris Gunter. He was simply a sensation when he broke into the first team and his departure in January railroaded our League campaign. Gunter is a man mountain and can play anywhere across the backline and why seen by many as a full back, you feel his long term position will be at centre half.

I have followed the Gunter's career through the youth teams at Cardiff and his class has always stood out like a sore thumb. He use to read the game quicker than anyone else, is strong in the tackle and has great aerial abilities. He reminds me greatly of fellow Spurs defender Jonathon Woodgate, although it has to be said that Gunter is probably a better passer of the football.

I know there are still a lot of question marks regarding the long term fitness of Ledley King and many Spurs fans feel an experienced centre half is needed to be brought in alongside Woodgate, but I really believe that Juande Ramos should put faith in Gunter. If you are good enough, you are old enough in my opinion and although the player is yet to turn 19, he is certainly worthy of a chance. It didn't take Spurs fans that long to dispel any doubts they may have had towards Gareth Bale, despite his tender age and the fact he had only played Championship football, so they shouldn't have any with Gunter - £3m was the biggest steal of last season and I dread to think what the lad could be worth in a few years time; he is that good.
