Player Mathys Tel

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Agreed, this guy is miles ahead of Mikey Moore, we would be mad not to sign him
No we will be mad to sign him.

It's like the same shit happens again and again and fans fall for the same shit all the time. Signing him makes it less likely we sign the proven player we so desperately need.

The amount of people that were calling for Tyer fucking Dibling at one point was actually quite scary. I get why Levy continuously does it now when it's so easy to fool the fanbase.
 
He’s a 19 year old kid settling into a new club and new country. Hes also came into a team that has had a torrid league campaign so I think we should give him
a chance. He’s not pulled up tree with his performances but there’s flashes of what he could become. A full pre season under his belt under a different style with Frank then we might just have a gem on our hands. I think he could be a Wissa type once he gets used to the physical side of the premier league.
 
Obviously wasn’t

Frank is coming in because he’s more willing to work with the signings the club wants to make

Tel and Wissa have similarities in profile though. Tel is younger and a lot more talented though… So, I can see Frank doing well with Tel
I'm not writing Tell off but he's not ready now. We are in the champions league now and last season showed we couldn't navigate numerous competitions.
We can't just sit around waiting for Tel to get ready.

Tel was signed in January, they need to base that decision on what they signed him for in January. Any decision on what we need for now is AFTER signing Tel and it’s blindingly obvious that even after Tel, we need a lefty RW and a replacement for Son… on top of Tel.
 
Agree, he’s a CF eventually but the fact that he can play off the left and cross the ball as well as he hits shots means he’s massively useful even whilst he’s building his frame into a CF.

The thing that goes unnoticed imo is his eye for a through ball. He sees passes that others don’t and people don’t notice because they can’t quite peg what position they think he is yet.

He’s got a nice touch and technique and makes difficult passes look easy.

In real time it’s very quick thinking.

I imagine if we revisited Sonny’s first season the reviews of his performances would be similar. “No good get rid”.
And Sonny was older with more senior game time under his belt.
 

More than anything I think this shows the dangers of YouTube scouting. You could easily cut a compilation of Tel in a Spurs shirt looking the absolute bits. Not sure this actually achieves it (some weird non-highlights in here) but it wouldn’t be too hard to make him or Odobert look mustard. Keep this in mind as all the new links pop up this summer.

I’m still more of a Tel believer than most just because I think Ange was a horrific forward coach, but he clearly has a lot of work to do.

Yeah but I watched those games and remember seeing the potential in those actions

This ain’t YouTube scouting it’s a video of our player

This. Plus, how many games did he play with our best 11?
