I'd settle for consistent before primeYes but Gio isn't at his prime yet either
Daniel Levy's Spurs summed up in one line.
He's fragile to begin with but he also missed pre-season and has not really built up his condition after so many smaller injuries. Not going to be easy to get him into the starting XI regularly until he becomes more robust.
I think he can be a really good player for us but you look at his output/injuries compared to Bruno Fernandes, who we passed on in favour of the cheaper Gio, it's a bit worrying. 1 goal and 3 assists in his PL career so far, when he's fit he needs to start producing the goods. We can't wait forever, we already have one Lamela and we don't need another one.
wrong choices piling up tbh.Interesting that Bruno gave an interview recently in which he said he was far closer to joining Spurs than ManU in the summer 18 months ago.
Obviously we made the wrong choice that summer
Not a bad idea, I had a job share set up that was very successfulJob share with Ndombele?
I understand hesitation with wanting to sign someone from a lower league. Bringing them up too early could hurt their careers. I won’t fault someone for that reasoning but people complaining of their work rate are just trying to pick lazy insults to throw.Again.
No guarantees Fernandes would come here and perform anywhere near the level he has at United.
He wouldn't be taken penalties.
He would be in a team that attacks fluently.
He wouldn't be the main man.
However, it's nice to see how many people are absolutely licking Grealish's arse now that he is playing Premier League football.
I remember back when I said we should sign him in the Championship and was told he wasn't good enough because he was still playing championship football lol.
Also laugh at those who complain about people like Ndombele's defensive work, yet also want Grealish.
I like what Gio can bring to us as a player but it really does seem as if he's made of breadsticks. I expect that surely there needs to be some change to his conditioning and rehab from this injury because his fragility is becoming a bit silly at this stage. I get that we could have signed someone better, but I do think he has elite attributes and it's on him and the staff to get him fit and show it on the field consistently.
The Christmas party stuff is unacceptable, really let down their teams mates. As bad is the stupidity in allowing it to be photographed and publicised.
Lo Celso has already shown more talent for the footballing side of football than Lamela.He's quite similar to Lamela in some ways. It's easy to see the talent, but overall he seems like an 'almost'-player. His passing is almost great, he's almost quick enough, his dribbling is almost fantastic, he almost scores goals and is almost fit most of the time.
60M was expensive ..
Is this even up for debate?
No he made the wrong choice: We are in a cup final and he is not!Interesting that Bruno gave an interview recently in which he said he was far closer to joining Spurs than ManU in the summer 18 months ago.

Shocking if true but not surprised at Levy in the slightest - same with Castagne, Skrinniar, Dybala, etc. We got the TKMaxx versions instead and it is now beginning to show badlyInteresting that Bruno gave an interview recently in which he said he was far closer to joining Spurs than ManU in the summer 18 months ago.

Did you even read the post - it doesn't matter who's in the final - Fernadez is the much better player. Not to mention GLC had fuck all to do with our final run anyway.No he made the wrong choice: We are in a cup final and he is not!
