Player Djed Spence

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Spence’s persona reflects almost everything I can’t stand about the modern footballer and this Spurs team in particular.
While he’s a decent defender, his crossing is in the 44th percentile for full-backs — well behind the defensively inept Porro — and almost all of his dribbles go nowhere. 0 goals, 0 assists.
Legendary player (in his own mind) and plays at being depressingly dumb.

You’re way off the mark!

His cat has a far better grasp of English! 😁

He still has never been given a run of games at his natural RB position. He can play as a defensive specialist at LB, but his one-footedness makes it painfully awkward and painfully obvious that he would be better played elsewhere.
 
He' s Englands first Muslim player.

Tuchel would have been told he's first name on the team sheet.

This is shite.

He’s been picked because Tuchel clearly leans towards certain profiles to fit his team. He doesn’t want the most talented players, he’s said this. He wants the ones that fit his system.

I don’t much rate Spence. I think he’s inconsistent and limited. But he’s very fast and strong 1v1 and versatile. Tuchel loves these traits. It’s fuck all to do with his religion.

+ to this, Spence got called up first when in good form. He impressed Tuchel during that camp. Clearly Tuchel has based his selection largely on players who did well then & he wants the same consistency and ethos he got from the squad in qualifiers.

It really doesn’t require bullshit conspiracy theories.

Well said, brother.

Such a vile post from that dumpling. And he's always the one calling people racist.

Now let's see if the powers that be dare ban him. You & I been yellow carded and sin binned for much, much less.
 
Hopefully this puts him in the shop window and he's gone over the summer. Just one of the players that needs to be shipped out asap.
Id keep him as a rotation option, but he seems to have a serious ego which wouldnt allow him to be a backup player. So hopefully someone gives us £20M for him after a few sub apps at the WC, then we put that towards a hungry (preferably English) EFL full back to come in and provide competition
