You watched 35 minutes of Tel and decided you’d rather have … Bergwijn?

I mean you got part of your sentence correct. I know you can't count past 60 but I thought you'd get 40-50 right.
Tottenham new boy Tel immediately calls Kane to make transfer feelings clear
Tottenham signed Mathys Tel on loan from Bayern Munich on deadline day and the French winger has already been raving about the club to England captain Harry Kane

Throw him in there today. Let’s see what he can do.
Was concerned it was a bad fit and the other day's performance didn't help his case.
As Adam Clery pointed out in his excellent video, he's best as an inside left forward. Spoiler: that's where our captain plays, and this system hasn't suited him, so I'm not sure why it would suit Tel?
It's also where Odobert and Moore are best so it's not like we don't already have plenty of teenagers coming through the pipeline there. (What we actually needed was a RW but this club seems incapable of identifying one and intent on shoehorning ill fitting players into the role. Spence the other night LOL, who's next, Porro?)
And the other day's performance solidified what I already thought: Tel is not a striker, can't play with his back to goal. So he's not gonna give Solanke much to worry about, and doesn't seem like he's gonna be great long term #9 rotation.
I hope I'm proven wrong but feels to me like Tel's decision not to come here on a permanent might have saved us from making a £50m mistake.

Tel is someone that could be our long-term successor to Son. My guess is the club is looking at it from that perspective.
It's a very strange deal to say the least. The player didn't seem fully onboard with joining us. I can't see how that will end up well unless we have some kind of massive turnaround of form, or sack Ange and hire a manager that Tel favors.
Is that not what Moore and Odobert were? Odobert is quite clearly a LW not a right wing.
Think the similarity to Son is the ability to get off accurate shots in around the box with low backlift.
Levy must have saved a fortune on win bonuses this season, let's hope he doesn't get to like it.
Not everything came off for him but looking about 1000x more dangerous than Son right now.
Get him playing off the left with Solanke at CF and Son can ride that bench.

Coming here playing for this fraud but still scoring
An incredibly smart and cool finish for what it was worth.
Yes but overall he was fairly useless imo.
Bar Spence and Bergvall who wasn't?
Looked like he had an altercation with one of our fans at the end . Welcome to toxic Spurs
If we ever play 2 strikers, him and Solanke might be worth trying.
Doubt we’ll ever do that though.

Mason might give it a go..m
Grew into the game and that goal will be huge for his confidence.
He's a CF though, that was a pure poacher's finish. Essentially what we have here is a 19-year-old Isak level CF. Obviously not Isak's level yet but isak was playing for Willem II when he was 19.
