Nope Not true.
He's started Moore in Europa league when he hasn't had to.
Per example his performance against Ferencvaros
He started both Moore and lankshear over solanke, Johnson, kulu, and son who he left out the squad all together

He has no choice, with injuries. If everyone was fit it’s clear he wouldn’t be playing them as much as he has done.
Needs must.
If you take emotion out of it Moore has to start now ahead of Son. While Moore still needs a bit of physical growth when Son came off for Moore we swapped a poor player for a good player. This is just where we are but Son is a great guy and our captain. It’s difficult and sad. I just wish we could see the old Son.

Great to see both Moore and Olusesi on the pitch for the first team together. Been together at Spurs since U9s
Above is the only good thing about this season
Said in the match thread, you can tell he’s just got it.
His dribbling skills remind me of Waddle.

Oh he's special alright just needs to be managed properly.
What does managed properly mean for you?
To me, the only mistakes we can really make are playing him too much, too young or starving him of opportunities to play at all.
He can ping a great ball and pass it too, not just a skilful dribbler like say Marcus Edwards
Playing in a front 3 with Werner and Johnson
Werner won’t play much now that Moore is fit imo. Johnson is actually a decent profile to have on the opposite wing to Moore because he’s a finisher and Moore is a creator.
The issues we have are when we need Johnson to create and it’s really not his strength right now.
He is a lovely footballer already. My only worry is his explosiveness in terms of acceleration. He clearly had enough at youth level to get away from defenders. He needs to really keep working physically to maximise his burst.
I think that’s also age though. You can watch clips of Messi at 17/18 and he is quick but not as explosive, hit 19/20 and he seems to power off his feet. Moore is probably 1-2 years away from better acceleration. You get the odd players like Rooney and Lamal who are men at 16 but most players aren’t that till 18-21.

Let’s hope so. Messi famously did this at 19…
