Not sure what language most of them are speaking but from what I can tell they think he's very raw, even for the SPL and some even saying they don't know if he will make it as a pro...
Hopefully none of that is true but probably supports the idea that he wasn't ready to play PL football yet.
Had a bad injury at end of last season and didn't return until (I think) early Jan..
Played a couple of u21 matches since his return, but he was clearly not back to the standards he was setting for last couple of seasons.
Tough decision at end January - stay in Spurs u21's which he had grown out of towards end of season or go on loan hoping his match fitness improves.
Agree, that's why we sent him to Scotland tho init
Hope the goal gives him confidence that's he's finally over the hamstring injury which he got at end of last season making him not fit until well after Christmas, and arguably borderline match fit by the start of his Aberdeen loan.
Had a shaky start to the loan at Aberdeen but seems to have started to get a run of better performances - hope these last to end of the season, but he's only played a little over 400 minutes so far in Scottish Premiership so even regularly playing for the rest of the season, whilst good news, won't rack up a ton of minutes played.
Think its likely he'll be on loan somewhere next season whether its in Championship or an overseas League as even with a good pre-season I can't see him being regarded as ready for Spurs first team - which is a shame as pre injury he was looking very good. Becomes 20 next month, so another year on loan is not crucial.
