This. Tel will maybe never take the cut, but is certainly not suited for a derby, wrestle-game against this mob

It is blatant corruption
Spence is great 1v1 defensively. Offers very little going forward.
Udogie is not as good defensively or technically but is left footed and does get into the box more.
Neither are going to be big attacking contributors over a season.
I'm glad to see it- if there is enough pressure the embarrassed ref will give us a soft pen in the second half to make up for it. And god damn are we deserved one.
Can't even be bothered with the Tel hate here. Spence has been dreadful yet not a single word. Tel has had almost no service, and is still running his bollocks off. It's like most people here want the kid to fail, just to be "proven right". Weird.
Van der Ven 'didn't initiate contact'

Former Everton and Swansea defender for Match of the Day
Cristian Romero’s goal should have stood. West Ham’s goalkeeper pushes his own player into Micky Van der Ven, who then collides with Kyle Walker-Peters but the Tottenham player didn’t initiate that contact. We’ve watched it back numerous times and you can see he doesn’t push Walker-Peters over.
The referee has given the decision on the field and because of that VAR is reluctant to intervene but that’s what they’re there for. We’d like to see more goals given and it’s the wrong decision, which is frustrating.
Spence o nthe right and Udogie on the left. That'll create better balance on the flanks
We haven’t got the luxury yet
I like it when my defenders can defend
Richie on for Tel next half please.
Yes agreed mate.
Actually, a lot of us have been having a word on here about Spence. Not sure what you've been reading...
Then more fool him
Absolutely robbed for that goal
Shameful decision
We look a threat at set pieces and there have been a few nice bits of play here and there but we're playing without an actual striker upfront and don't really look like creating anything from open play again

Agree- can see how Spence needs to improve his left foot, or remain primarily a defensive option as a LB.
