I just don’t think he likes/rates the kid, whether it’s his attitude related we’ll never know.It made complete sense to play him yesterday ant some point and once again he’s kicking his heels.When he has got the odd 10 minutes he has looked very tidy and the fact Porro at the moment has looked out on his feet imo , I yet again have to question Mr Postecoglou?
I agree, but if the boy is that much of an arsehole then surely he would be training with the kids and nowhere near the first team squad?I just don’t think he likes/rates the kid, whether it’s his attitude related we’ll never know.It made complete sense to play him yesterday ant some point and once again he’s kicking his heels.
Yeah it’s bizarre.It was only 4 months ago in pre-season he’d won ange over and was working his way back in getting game time,he had a really impressive cameo against Coventry, since then literally nothing.I agree, but if the boy is that much of an arsehole then surely he would be training with the kids and nowhere near the first team squad?
For me udogie has been a liability recently, and he’s not offered a great deal in an attacking sense.seems strange not to play him yesterday - Porro needs a rest (so does Udogie)

Porro and Udogie will be next in line for long term injuries, probably around the same time, and everyone at the club will be stood there with sad/confused fucking Pikachu faces as though nobody could possibly have seen this coming...I mean this is just another completely ridiculous situation. Dont change Tottenham.
Porro's legs will implode agaisnt Chelsea
He's going to get injured. It's the reason Udogie has gone to shit. Overplayed. This is shocking management. I don't care if he rates or likes Spence, or though you wonder why he's happy to lie so readily in support of the contract extension that's a poor look, but use him to protect the players he does rate. Don't let the good be the enemy of perfect.I mean this is just another completely ridiculous situation. Dont change Tottenham.

Reading between the lines in ange’s press conference today Spence still isn’t doing enough to get in the side.
The contract extension was weird unless it was about player value. I doubt he’ll be here this time next year.
Has any journo asked about Spence? I know he was injured for a while but been back for enough time you'd have expected him to be used on Sunday. Is there something going on behind the scenes?
The contract extension was pure Levy, trying to maintain his value despite him never playing and already being hard to get rid of. Completely stupid.
I don’t know why some on here had this idea that Spence was a player Ange trusted. If you are trusted, you play. Spence wasn’t even included in our European squad and has played two significant 45 minute halves in his Spurs career, both times only because Udogie had to be subbed off. He is a player who was not meant to be here and is for emergencies only.
Not really anything like Lo Celso. GLC was starting games for the World Cup winners. This joker has barely kicked a football at PL level and yet some people think we have the next Cafu being ignored for no apparent reason.He’s this seasons Lo Celso. Will be sold in the summer which is a shame
It's really not that ToneNot really anything like Lo Celso. GLC was starting games for the World Cup winners. This joker has barely kicked a football at PL level and yet some people think we have the next Cafu being ignored for no apparent reason.
It’s a classic case of fans over-rating a player just because they want to feel like they’re right rather than admit the reality of the the player not being good enough.
How would Ange know? He's never there apparentlyYikes - doesn't sound like things are that great behind closed training grounds...
