I think this season he either surprises and delights us as LWB or he's out next summer
"Once a Red, always a Red... but also Never Red!"
Who’s going to agree that Spence will be 1st choice RWB within a month or so?
I'm very confident of this.
Me not because he is necessarily a better player than Emerson or Doherty but becuase his skill set will probably fit a lot more. Obviously this is assuming he plays like he did against Woolwich and Leicester last season in the cups and run hard at players in attack and run hard tracking back.
Both him and Perisic running at players or making runs behind players will make us more difficult to play against.
Who knows? I hope so, because it would mean he's better than what we've got at the moment, which I see as average.
Larry David reference.
Really hope fans give him a couple of seasons to impress. This is quite a step up for him.
I can see us relying a lot on Doherty this season as he improves. He's still a very young lad.
Grew up playing with Sessegnon at Fulham - love that he told Spence to “be prepared to work hard”…
What does he say here at 0:47? "Through the ranks..."?
Seems like an interesting person. Confident but humble. The cigar picture made me think he's a party boy but at least he says that football is his whole life. Nice introduction.
It’s exciting but he’s got a 44% take on success in the championship. That will probably fall in thé PL against better players.
Doherty tries far fewer take ons but has a 60% success right. There’s probably an element of decision making there.
Doherty is making 50% more passes and creating 50% more chances per 90.
Spence has as many goals and assists as Doherty but he played almost 5 times more minutes. And again, at a lower level.
I think we need to temper our excitement around Spence. Good prospect but he’s not going to come in and blow what we have out the water. It’ll take time. You could argue playing with better players will help Spence but for me Doherty gets the nod in the early games.
In his pomp Danny actually beat his man and tackled like he fucking meant it tbh.
In his pomp Danny was an outstanding wingback, and not only did his effort belie the fact that he wasn't even a Usain Bolt, he also was very good at winning the ball and finding space.
Goes to show how much of a players level is attributed exclusively to attitude and sheer hunger.
Completely different player to Sess unfortunately. Would love Sess to be more like him tbh.
