He is fucking poor.What is his position because he's definitely not a CM
It's a message from José for Levy : "Hé look Sissoko is more useful than Bale or Moura"There were plenty of times in that first half where the ball came to him and there was just nothing there. He's an attacking option ffs.
He should have been taken off at HT for one of Lucas, Lamela, Bale, Vinicius or Dele in my opinion.
And he wasnt. I was even more amazed that Winks was taken off ahead of him!
He hides all the time. Rarely does he show for a pass and he can’t wait to get rid of the ball when he gets it.Despite his limitations he has the legs and lungs to work hard for the team for 90 minutes ( ). Also the most physical midfielder we have after Hojbjerg.
Finished 90 mins in 11 League games. Jose is clearly aware of his limitations, but he is also a senior, very professional player (Amazon documentary). I'd rather he wasn't in the side and we upgraded him, but he never hides and works his socks off. Can't fault his attitude.
theres been many games against the better sides over the years where he was the most important player on the pitch for us as he stops us getting overrun in midfield. if he was decent on the ball hed be at real madrid..but hes pony so hes at spurs and we have to use him for his strengths. waste of time him playing against inferior sides as youll never dominate a team with him in the lineup. hopefully moruinho has turned a corner today.
ajax first leg when he was forced on thanks to vertonghen injury..thats off the top of my head but hes been a key player in lots of big games for us just due to his presence in midfield when we havent got the ballWhat game was he ever the most important player for us?
I can't think of one let alone many.

against teams of equal/superior talent, he's needed.
his presence does everything for us thats why we dont get overrun in midfield against the better sides. hes poor technically but you dont see many skip round him and he wins most duals, not to mention the ground he covers, hed be a nightmare to face up against as a footballer. yea hes shit with the ball at his feet, which is why hes detrimental against inferior sides and should never be playing against them unless we are struggling with injuries.But his presence does nothing for us. He is not good defensively, not good with the ball, doesn't mark guys on set pieces, isn't good at running with the ball unless there is nobody in front of him which you or I could do.

he also doesnt go trying shit hes not capable of, hes happy to win us the ball and give it to someone who can actually use it..you need them dogs in your side sometimes against the better teams.
