Build the team around him and Ndombele

He's proved his worth today and Ndombele has been pictured smiling in training
Ndombele will never run around enough to play a pressing game.
If we keep one it should be Lo Celso. If Ange can work on one, it should be him. How can he be good enough for Argentina but not for us ?

According to??

I’m unsure where it originated from but several sources have mentioned it over the years. You can never be certain what rumours are true but it wouldn’t exactly be surprising. He’s always fit for Argentina, rarely fit for us.

Spurs fans: if Harry can help us get to CL places it's worth losing him on a free instead of getting £90m.
Also Spurs fans: we can't lose out on that £20m Lo Celso deal, who cares if he's our second best 8, get rid.
He’s not proven to be second best in any position, and not proven to be able to stay fit. £20m for him is a good deal for us.

You can just pull up matches and watch him play in a midfield three for Argentina or Villarreal. The truth is that none of our midfielders outside of Maddison have his qualities on the ball.

I’m not his biggest fan but Ndombele certainly does, as does Bissouma (although he’s destined for a deeper role).
He’s never proven to be able to do it in this league for an extended period of time, outside of 8 games post lockdown where he was good, he’s been a bust. He also can’t stay fit in this league, he only managed 1405 minutes (15.6 games roughly) in Spain last year for that matter.

Ndombele's passing is definitely not as good as Lo Celso, his main strength is his ball carry and dribbling. Bissouma has never shown anything close to Lo Celso's passing range.

It's true that he can't really stay fit, good thing we have plenty of other CMs who can cover for him.

This has stuck with him, at a time when he missed a World Cup win. So maybe it's not really the case?
 
Interesting note that he wasn’t even supposed to play the last match.

No Son and Tanguay’s knock put him in. Wonder if he changed Ange’s original thoughts
 
Pure class Tuesday. We MUST NOT SELL.

He’s definitely a high energy, attacking player that suffered under the last three regimes. Ange’s style fits Lo C to a tee. Looks like Ericksen in his prime here.

Meh...

I personally blame Conte for ndombele's flailing career at the club to date

His tactics have stifled him over the last 4 years

Under Daddy Ange , just watch him fly

Daddy Ange is cooking up a storm
