Player Bryan Gil

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Showed some promise tonight.

I like how Nuno used him. Don't think he has the speed to be an out and out winger. Seems better suited inside trying to unlock defenses
 
The wispy mustache has to go though :pochunimpressed:

And when that time comes this will be us...

Didn’t think we could find a player as one footed as lamela but we’ve done it. Slightly worrying that he also has Eriks ability to fanny around and take too much time on the ball.
I’ll put that down to unfamiliarity with teammates, system and startling realisation of how shit we can be.
 
Bryan Gil is definitely playing as an AM. The width is coming from Sessegnon & the utterly useless Doherty.

But Bryan's starting position is frequently central, and he's both coming short to receive the ball on the half turn and spinning in behind.

Crucially, he plays with his head up and has a football brain, which puts him in a class above so many of our squad.
 
Played brilliantly. No fault of his own, but the talent gap between him and Sessegnon is frankly embarrassing.

Strengths are that he has fantastic ability on the ball, it was getting pinged into him in tight areas and there was never any doubt about him losing possession. He also shifts his body brilliantly to wriggle clear of challenges.

Assisted Kane with a great ball. The speed of thought is there, as is the technical ability to shift it extremely quickly.

Best of all, he seems brave as hell and clearly trusts in his ability. Not one to hide… could be the technical press resident ball player we need.

Said after 8 seconds of his highlight video, YOUNG GIGGS, missed most of tonight, but could see he's technical gravy.
