Georgiou giving Suso so much time and space. Converting to left back in his professional career would probably be wise for Georgiou but he needs some work.

Either Georgiou is very bad defensively or that Suso is a good little player

Little bit of both I would say. Georgiou started the match showing him onto his left foot, as if he didn't know Suso was left footed. Still, is Georgiou even a LB naturally? Looks a clean dribbler of the ball and his distribution has been pretty good.
 
Thoughts on that first half:

Lucas, Llorente and Nkoudou have all been poor. Lucas better of the three out of virtue of having more of the ball.
KWP and Georgiou at full back have had some bright sparks on the ball but defensively, I think both have been poor.
Marsh probably won't make it at Tottenham but like Lesniak, Ward and Miller, this is a great experience for him.
Skipp continues to show promise. 17 years old. Work rate and confidence is off the charts.
Amos again very good and comfortable. Wouldn't be against him starting our opening game in all honesty if World Cup players are being rested.

Admittedly haven't seen much of him before, but Georgiou looks good with the ball, can hold defenders off, and has impressive short and long passing. Has he played in midfield? Because he looks lost when it comes to his defensive positioning, even if he is still young, but could see him in front of defense.

Skipp and Amos look like they could make it for us, even at the level we're playing now.

Whenever Georgiou has played for the first team in pre-season or in the Champions League last season, he has played as a winger and usually impressed - but I remember a youth watcher saying that he has played left back for the academy.
