Nah, it's fair, RA.

He's super average.

And doesn't work hard.

Werner has just come in and you can see the value, even though he, himself, is average in a couple departments.

For that Brennan money, you want much more than a mid squaddie.

Especially, considering what you could have gotten for that cash, that other clubs have snapped up.

Jesus, he cost more than Maddison, didn't he??? lol

Again, not his fault we paid it (pants pulled down), so the L also goes to the procurement team/ange, on this one.
 
Yeah you’re right, I hope everyone boos him like they did Davinson and Emerson before that.

If we keep posting in agreement with each other about how shit he is, it will end up the same on socials. Before you know it he’s getting booed in the stadium.
If he begins to work as hard, and show as much commitment, as Emerson, there will be no build up of frustration like that and he will EARN more time.

The guy is stinking up the joint going forward, and light jogging back, when we're under the cosh.

He's a young kid, known for his pace and intensity.

It's not on.

We have to have more self-respect as a fanbase, and demand more from ALL our players.

This is not acceptable.

I don’t see him jogging back

What’s not acceptable is so-called spurs fans like you turning on him so quickly.

That’s not on.

People like you are why we get called fickle. Put a sock in it.

Edit: Anyone who disagrees with this post can get on the sea too.
 
Was at the game, very close to the pitch, and agree there were times he didn’t track back with any intensity

He is incredibly frustrating to watch as there is definitely a lot of talent in there

Not tUrNiNg on anything.

Being fairly critical of consistently super average performances and poor work rate.

He needs to pull his finger out.

Werner is a dodo and has come in and showed more value in his first two games.

The dumb irony of 'top spurs fans' accusing others of not being 'proper' spurs fans because they demand a higher standard - on some of the basics - so the club can be more successful, will never get old.

Evergreen stupidity.

He’ll come good. Luckily he’ll get more time from Ange and the coaching staff than he will from you plastics.

:nunothumb:

No need to talk anymore nonsense thinky, you’ll only hurt yourself.

That's what we all want (because we all want the club to be successful).

But, he needs to give fans fuel to keep faith in that.

Emerson pulled his socks up and showed there was enough value in him to keep faith in him being a useful squad member.

And the fans hugely respected that and he now has a lot of leeway because of that.

That's how it works.

You need to get off his case.

End of.
 
I asked last time for an example or a time in the game and nobody had one.

I know what I saw and it’s not what you are saying. He hasn’t played great for a couple games but the effort and ducking challenge thing is fantasy
General tracking back.

Many instances in the game (which has been consistent in other games, and commented upon on here...this is not new).

Not sure why you're expecting people to pin point what was happening, generally.

Just watch the game, again.

I watched the game. I didn’t see it the same way.

Just because a couple of you have decided that you don’t like his tracking back or challenge intensity, that doesn’t mean it’s true
 
He loves the intensity of training, what about the intensity of an actual game?
This is the transposition that needs to occur.

Hopefully he's not all in his own head, like sess, who can't free himself up to perform (and, yes, I still think there's a good player in sess... which he prevents coming out... still need to sell, tho).
