Ex-Spurs Player Giovani Lo Celso

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I'd say there's an element of Gio in which he's betrayed by his appearance. He's built like a clever one-touch 'Pep' type player. However, in reality, he's absolutely not.

All his best moments are surging runs...He's excellent at carrying the ball and a lot quicker than I expected. However, his delivery, creativity and interplay leaves a bit to be desired.

Watching Bernando Silva last night should be enough to open our eyes.
Bernado Silva is a good player but when the chips were down he was shite. Now the team's playing well he's good again.

We played City last season and parked the bus, Gio was a one man attack at times.
 
Not sure why some posters shit on gio? He defo is one of our most technical players and tbh someone you like to watch play. His great at running with the ball, can slip a great through ball and has got left slide tackle like giggsy. If Dele could get his form back and start making those trademark runs into the box then gio would be great to have in the team picking out the pass.
 
When we hear a player is going to be out for say months we understand but The info on Gio has been that he will be a few weeks that just keeps getting extended. Not sure why but it is the lack of info that is the problem here.

Hamstring injury innit? Hard to put a time on especially as the last time he came back a couple of weeks ago he injured himself again first day back. I suspect the club are more cautious this time despite being desperate for him to return. We have seen what happens when you rush players back too quickly with that injury with Dele.

Agreed. I'd rather keep Gio sidelined for a long time and let him heal properly. Than rush him back and this become a recurring problem.

All true

I think the frustration for fans (and probably for the player himself and coaching staff) is that in the first half of the season he was rarely fit enough to manage even 45 minutes in a PL game, and since mid December he's been out injured.

So in practice we are going back to last season when he was last fully fit - which seems a very long time ago now !
 
Let's be real.

I cannot foresee the next time he will be able to kick a football for us.
In March, hopefully.

Obviously it's sad that he's had injury problems this season, but that's no reason to shit on one of the most talented players in our team.

When he's back I have a feeling Jose will play alongside Ndombele and Hojbjerg in midfield. I'm looking forward to that.
Lo Celso haters can cry about the fact they won't see Sissoko/Winks/Lamela or whoever the fuck they want as a 2nd CDM.
 
In all honesty i don't give a shit about

Mate.. I like him, but, he is Erik Lamela mark 2.

Fucked all the time.

Get rid.
