Player Dejan Kulusevski

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He's been given no rest at all and his position keeps changing depending on who we have available. Cut him some slack.

Do you support anyone at the club or do you just hate on everyone?

Oh shut up you bore.

I’ve said multiple times I actually quite rate him these days. But we’re not talking one or two bad games, it’s a long period of being poor.

He got praised to the heavens for good matches and he will get criticised for bad ones. How it works when you’re not a deluded fanboy.
 
Hes not an average athlete. He is in fact an unbelievable athlete. Hes just not explosive as an athlete. More a 3000 m runner than an 100m explosive sprinter.
His form is gone off a cliff though

I do wonder if he would make it through English academy football. Doesn’t have the direct pace people often look for in wingers. Or for a CM covering a lot of ground.
Seems to lack the creative element Maddison brings in the 10 role.

But is a very good athlete and distance runner.

Just not sure he would have come through any system as a winger in the current game where 4-3-3 is the fashion.
 
you're arguing that Kulu is not having a better season then KDB?
Problem with Kulu is that when he is good he is great.. when he is bad, he is dogshit. The word consistency does not apply to him. Few games he looks like a world beater and then the next game he is Ndombele....Its not a surprise why Conte didn't use him much. He is bipolar or something serious.

I can argue that KDB wont have that problem (Except for injury problems). The midfield needs stability and consistency.

Whatever. I think it's pathetic criticising a player who's played every single game for us this season. His form has naturally dropped off and you can't cut him some slack.
 
Ah here Davey, no need to get all hissy. I was never one of these fans who was claiming Kulusevski is going to be the new KDB, even back when it was trendy in September.

I literally am just pointing out that on current form he's better than him. KDB can't even run these days. I guarantee you Pep would prefer to have Deki for the remainder of the season.

Its not an outlandish point at all. Amazed nobody here agrees with me. This is not me calling Kulusevski world class. This is just me stating how washed KDB is, and find it amazing how nobody else seems to see it. Maybe I watch more Man City games than most of you but KDB is done

Our system is an absolute mess. It's useless to try and assess players based on their play within it. I honestly cannot believe people are wasting so much time trying to read the tea leaves on these players right now. It's a waste of time to obsess over this while the system prevents useful data from being generated.

Exactly. Just an easy time to kick a player while they can! And some fans just love ripping on players
 
Purely & simply awful. He's on the pitch, we're basically a man down.

Kid's ego is writing checks his talent can't cash.

The new KDB? Friggin lol.
 
I think he's just exhausted tackles he was bouncing through he's now bouncing off can't get past a man can barely even sprint.

Now that a few are coming back he needs a spell on the bench and a good couple weeks rest

But they measure these metrics and collate stats on the players health. If he’s actually exhausted wouldn’t the stats show that? Then he would obviously be left out.

We’ve had a week between games, why’s the manager playing him if he’s exhausted?

Football isn't just metrics though.. It is one of the mest complex sports you may do, and a lot of things making an impact to the player, and tothe game, is not up for measuring.

He is out of form, but no reason he can't return to his former self. Some time off will do probably him good
 
Fucking Awful again, but equally fucking irritating is Ange’s refusal to ever drop him or sub him off. Even worse today was moving him back into midfield when we were already struggling to get control of the game.

Because the players who would take his place in Johnson was injured. Another week between games now hopefully he gets some rest in training and a game starting from the bench same as Son
