i think the the fact no one had bothered to post about the twat in over 6 months gives you a good indication.Anyone following Holtby's progress at Hamburg lately?
Funny how both him and Schurrle were on everyone's FM team only to disappear from the radar. Also, not too long ago, I would've taken Holtby over Dembele.
I love Holtby, but he looks distinctly average in a very average Hamburg side. He won't be the player he could have been.Anyone following Holtby's progress at Hamburg lately?

Indeed. Can't say much about him in Hamburg now, but perhaps I loved him more for his Spurs TV antics rather than what he did on the field.
I had hoped that he would come good, being one of the rare "English" players to have started out and made it in a league abroad - he also looked like the sort of player that wouldnt mind working his ass off. In hindsight, it is rather disappointing that we let him go especially when you see how the current crop of youths are doing under Poch.
Can't complain though. We've already got a young Englishman who grew up in a foreign league and who's certainly doing an amazing job here in Dier. :dierpochhug:
Sounds about right, however the term Pot and Kettle spring to mind!
Credit to Sherwood, he seems on point there (though demonstrating his usual lack of class when talking about fellow professionals).
Always got the feeling with Holtby that he was the closest thing we had to the 'banter' players at Woolwich - you know, the ones who would goad Spurs on social media to curry favour with gooners despite barely making their bench (Gibbs, Frimpong, Szczesny).
Lewis Holtby 10/10 for social media skills, however successive managers clearly didn’t rate him. Guess there was a reason we got Holtby cheap or should have been free.
I hear he’s driving a taxi in Cologne now
Holtby is a big fan of Titz. he's quoted in the article I posted in the Other Matches thread OVER THERE.
Of course he loves Titz!
He loved those air stewardess Titz a little too much.

What’s the story behind that one then?
His text/social media game still on point.
I wanted Holtby to be the successor to Rafael Van Der Vaart and become the player Christian Eriksen has actually become.
Thank fuck we got Eriksen.
Says it all that Pochettino didn't even give him a chance beyond pre-season. I remember Holtby actually doing okay in pre-season and a few of us thought he might do well as he came across as someone with good work rate etc. but maybe his attitude was all wrong. I don't think Pochettino likes the big brash personality types who joke around. Probably also why he got rid of Sandro.
Considering he even kept the likes of Adebayor, Assou-Ekotto, Paulinho etc. - it was telling.

Was linked with Cardiff earlier in the summer, but obviously nothing came of that. Will surely get a club at some point, but probably not at the level he thinks he should be at
