Love him, but he's an absolute duel-losing machine sometimes, I swear

Losing a duel and randomly running around pushing players over to give away a foul.
It's what he does best.
Hes so shit 
most frustrating player going at the minute. bundles of talent and ability but his decision making at times is awful, hangs onto it too long when theres passes to get out etc. under a proper manager and a proper coaching set up with some proper drilling this kid could be an absolute force.
Kulu and Porro have played about the same minutes.
20% more than the player in third.
He needs a rest.
needing a rest has fuck all to do with him holding onto the ball too long. in fact if anything he should be releasing the ball quicker if hes tired!
Yes because tired players are definitely sharper
yea, you aint got a clue what youre talking about. never mind.

Looks permanently knackered and hasnt played too good lately BUT, he scored a cracker today to put the cherry on the top, probably needs a rest.
I thought he was terrible today!! His goal
Is class but still looks jaded and gave the ball away far too much. I’ve always liked him but he’s been flogged all season and is still getting flogged when at this moment he doesn’t need to be

It never ceases to amaze me how some of our players can stink the place out for weeks and then have a great individual moment and then be forgiven for the next 7 or 8 weeks of under achievement. I guess that that great finish has earned Kulu a reprieve for a couple of months. The reality is that he needs to be much more consistent.
10 goals for the season so far I believe
'It's annoying' - Tottenham midfielder admits to playing with just 40 per cent energy which 'gets difficult'
Dejan Kulusevski admits he has often played with just 40 or 50 per cent energy this season during Tottenham's injury crisis.
Dejan Kulusevski opens up on the demands of playing every game for Tottenham
In a recent interview with Sky Sports, the Swedish winger shed light on the physical toll of playing every match and revealed that he has often had to operate at just 40% of his energy levels due to fatigue.He said: “It’s difficult, of course, because first of all, it’s too many games. You go out and play some games where you feel 40/50%, and that’s not how it’s supposed to be.
“But then also, like you said, if you have injuries and you don’t have enough players, then it really gets difficult. So, of course, it’s annoying because, in the end, you just want to play football on normal terms, you know? But you can’t do that, so you just try to do your best, and you try to use your brain more.
“Like I said before, when I notice that I can’t run up the field like I want every game, then I need to stop and start thinking more. Maybe I can save my energy here. Maybe I can try to keep the ball much more in this situation. So, you start to use your brain to keep energy.”
