Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
You know... I saw a couple of vids that made him look like a slow version of Winks, but this is much better.
I'm not impressed, just not completely underwhelmed. I'd take someone able to tackle and beat players over a non-playing Tanguy.
I thought igula might have been totti
Weaker in bodys maybe, weaker in ability, i doubt it…
Whats their combined minutes and contributions this season?
We couldn't sign a frappe
You’re right but the know it all arrogance is similar
They’re generally pretty thick , so there’s a chance
Haha yeah, a few times i have known we were winning/losing a minute or so before the rest of the pubYeah it's what I use , just have to remember to switch notification off when watching Tottenham on TV/stream with the delay
Where would we all be without our gallows humour on here
YOU ARE A CUNT LEVY, IF YOU'RE LISTENING.
Miss out on the champions league, watch Woolwich or Utd qualify for champions league then use that as an excuse for why we cannot sign our summer targets. Conte realises Levy don’t give a shit about football and this is the Tavistock Group just inflating the value of their portfolio that is why they have more interest in building a cinema than a football team. Conte then walks in the Summer we fire Paratici for not following the remit for his role then we go on the manager merry go round again.
Well at least we know where we stand...
Sorry, I got carried away and diluted the main point I was making, not counting players still here from that era (Kane/Son/Hugo for example) how many of the players brought in since would have ousted or even remotely challenged those that have left for a place in the squad?
It's a poor reflection on our recruitment over the last 5 years that the quality of the squad has steadily and consistently dwindled over time.
Even take Wimmer as an example, we sold him for £18m was it? A decent profit on a young player signed for a quarter of that, and what did we do, blow £40m+ on Sanchez for a minimal upgrade (if at all).
So we have a lot of "good" players, maybe, most of them PL quality, hardly glowing praise for a squad expected to be in contention for the CL spots, but comparing the squad of 5 years ago to this is just depressing.
I'm not sure but it's not going to help us having less bodies. We'll tire the players out.
I don’t even get mad anymore. We are just part of a big Enic social experiment.
If any of Skipp, Winks or Hojbjerg get an injury we are buggered. All good to move 1-2 out like Ndombele and Dele but I wouldn’t move Lo Celso unless 1-2 are coming the other way. We already have enough risk with no Kane back up.
I think he is ultimately another Winks/PEH which, while underwhelming, I can see the logic of as emergency cover.
Right now Conte has 3 CMs that he trusts to play his system. This guy will just be another who can slot in. I don't expect him to improve us.
He does look very slow though. Always a concern with Serie A players.
