You forgot that he came on and immediately gave away a penalty.If he started vs Brighton we would have been joint top now.
Single handily ran the game in the 2nd half, what a performance - so happy for him!
Also much better than Kulu in the #10.
What did you think of Lo Celso's contribution today?
Ange:
Yeah Gio was great. He's been great the last two or three weeks. With the amount of injuries we've had and absences we've had, we've needed everyone in the group and everybody who has come in has stepped up. Gio was very good today, not just with his work rate but you could see his quality on the ball. His passes through and the one through to Sonny was outstanding. We needed him today and we're going to need him going forward because Sonny goes away now, Biss goes away, Pape goes away. So I thought he was a good contributor.
What do we make of that?
We're going to need him cause we're going to be thin on players. How else can you take it?What did you think of Lo Celso's contribution today?

Does Ange mean we need him until the end of January or longer?We're going to need him cause we're going to be thin on players. How else can you take it?
I think it’s just Ange’s way, trying to be not too effusive about an individual, preferring to concentrate on the team performance as a whole.Does Ange mean we need him until the end of January or longer?
Sounded a bit non-committal to me.
He likes him.What did you think of Lo Celso's contribution today?

Hope he staysIf he does want to stay with us long term and can remain healthy then we have a midfield of Bentancur, Maddison, Kulusevski, Lo Celso, Bissouma and Sarr.
Sadly I think Hojbjerg and Skipp don’t have the tools to make it in this system. So if we can upgrade them with the likes of Vermeeren and Gallagher we could end up with the second best midfield in the league after City.
He's boosting GLC, he knows that no one is going to buy him, so he's stuck with him for time being and will try to get the best out of him.What did you think of Lo Celso's contribution today?

Phenomenal second half. Genuinely one of the best performances by a Spurs player this season. Long may it continue, we're gonna need him next month.

This is the Lo Celso we've waited far too long to see. Apart from at the start of the covid games, he's not given it his all and wasn't in favour. I never doubted his raw talent but thought he was a bit of a miserable, brittle wanker tbh. Money down the drain.
He looks like a totally different player now. Invested and enjoying it and great to watch. The power of Ange.
