World class defender
So good and should only get better. Two worries though for the future. Firstly will he ultimately prove too good for us to hold onto and secondly will Spurs style of playing a high line rely too much on his pace to bail us out and place further pressure on his hamstrings
Got to be honest,I think he’s the best centre back I’ve seen for Tottenham. I love defenders that make me feel calm and only Jan and Ledley done that for me but this guy has the pace that they never had. An absolute steal. He’s going to be the best defender in the world.
‘Outstanding’... Pundit says Tottenham have made an even better signing than Alexis Mac Allister
Who has been the signing of the season in the Premier League?
Tottenham player may be Signing of the Season
Burley spoke about Micky Van de Ven, claiming that he is Signing of the Season ahead of his colleagues’ picks of Alexis Mac Allister and Cole Palmer.“I would throw in I think Kudus for sure, but I would throw in, has there been a better value for money signing than Van de Ven for Tottenham? When he’s not in that side, he’s been absolutely outstanding, hamstring issues apart, he has been an outstanding signing for them,” Burley said.
“You’ve picked Mac Allister, you picked Palmer, for value for money I’m going to say Van de Ven.”
Wonder if we rest him tomorrow. Protect the hammy from 2 games in a week.
King was quick he caught robben in a chase behind him aswell and Henry hated playing against him prime king is something else sadly we didn't see more due to his knee injuries
So, I’m still not sure who’s the best pure defender out of VDV and Romero but VDV is definitely the most impressive I can remember with that pace and strength.
To be the best in the world he needs to get a bit better in the air but he has everything
"We know about the coefficients, you look at it but it’s not like I’ll be supporting West Ham"
He totally gets it, doesn't he?

Yep! That’s some CB pairing Holland have, him and VVD. I assume that oaf De Liht doesn’t start ahead of him"We know about the coefficients, you look at it but it’s not like I’ll be supporting West Ham"

Brilliant game, what a top signing
The vote for player of the season was never so easy.
How the hell did no other giant club get hold of him? He is world class IMO. Excellent defending, fantastic speed, good dribbling skills, and powerful shot.
Liverpool were after him, normally a good sign.
Immense
A few years and he'll be the best CB in the prem. Incredible ceiling.
