Player Djed Spence

[yes]

Fuck knows whether he’ll kick on or regress but as of right now, he’s putting in very solid performances and works hard. Long may it continue as we need depth.

 

[Allejo10]

im having him over udogie right now. thought we looked better over on that left side when he came on. hes a fair bit quicker than udogie too. udogie so one dimensional in his game, spence can do what he does and more. also think hes a bit taller too and probably better in the air which helps with set pieces.

Nonsense

Was Ange ever asked about why he was left out of the EL squad? H3 clearly seems to be the number one back up for Udogie and maybe even for Porro if Gray is needed in CM. Hopefully he can force Anges hand and get some PL starts - wouldn't surprise me

Yes he was. As I recall it was the expected response about difficult decision, someone has to miss out and all that, but that Djed is going to make meaningful contributions elsewhere or some such..

 

[MillerSpurs]

was he injured? I'm confused why he couldn't have come on and at least given some energy on either side. Maybe at least handled the right side better defensively.

Either side of defense. Destiny appeared to lose the plot somewhat in the 2nd half. I was incredulous at the decision to leave Udogie on for the whole game.

I think he is just not trusted. You can clearly see we have so called first eleven (so todays starting team plus Son). And trusted guys (Biss, Sarr, Odobert, Richy when fit) - that can either start PL game sometimes or come into pitch in meaningful time. Rest (Spence, Dragusin, Gray etc) will play when only when we have injuries or are already like 2-3 goals ahead.

Ange seems to be taking the piss out of Djed.
IMO Spence should have started today.
Porro did nothing much wrong but Spence starting seemed a smarter move with a long term interest in mind.

Yeah from pre season and when he's played this season he looks worthy of a start. Time to give him a chance.

I agree, Ange doesn’t rate him but is just using him by keeping him around. Similar to Lo Celso.

It’s a shame though because Spence has been impressive

Conte didnt rate him or play him either, there's got to be something there that we don't know about, Genoa didnt take up the option to purchase Spence outright for €10m either in the summer

His attitude and performance on the pitch has been spot on since pre season. I've seen more desire and application in his performances than I have from supposed first team starters.

Oh my God still with this crap. All Serie A clubs are broke ass. Spence was not who Conte want and it was the reason he wasn't played. As for Ange he's making innumerable bad decisions at the moment that's on him not Spence or Gray or anyone else. You have cleaved hard to the frankly profile style idea ' there must be something wrong with Spence.' It's silly unless you have something you want to share you should think hard about continuing to trot it our because it's starting to feeling odd.

Yes but we can only call what we see. I've seen a committed player who's attitude on the pitch has been good and beneficial to the team. I think it sets a bad example to ignore a player doing well and continuing to pick favourites that are under performing.

I don't trust lots of the decisions the current coaching staff are making and this is one of them. Romero Udogie Spence Gray its a list that continues to demoralise

I have no idea what youre on about to be honest. I just said Conte didn't play him either and your reply before your mindless rant was that Conte didn't want spence (despite Conte agreeing the signing), well Ange didn't buy Spence and sent him to italy when he arrived so he obviously doesn't want him

both Managers sent him out the club, so they both don't fancy him for some reason. to which i said we will never know why. Not sure what part of that complex bit of code you had trouble with

Conte said 'club signing' and had nothing to do with him. Ange also said he was doing really well and would get games ( you NEVER mention this part) And talking about mindless is to repeatedly infer there must be 'something wrong' we don't know about, that is mindless speculation and looks a lot like simple bias on you part. That's not too complicated to understand is it?
