I have no problem with his long passing. The problem is his short passing, he often overhits or underhits passes. It happens way too often.
Needs to either get binned in the summer or benched next season
And yet he was miles ahead of Skipp.
Who cares that he can’t pass, he’s got PASHUN!!!!
He used to win the ball and have random contributions further up the pitch.
Not sure what he contributes now.
Needs to get his fucking head out of his own arse.

One of his better games yday IMO and still so much that infuriates me. He is a huge reason why we don’t control games, if you can’t see that you don’t get football. We simply have to put Sarr in, keep PEH in a 3 of the teachers pet is undroppable but put someone in the middle third who wants the ball and can change direction.
PEH in a pair is suicide

Could you please specify in what he's ahead of Skipp. In defence his definitely better at running around where the ball isn't. He's short passes are 5 times as bad. The few times he manages to find a team mate, it's always one that that is covered that he puts in the shit with the pass.
That was Winks' speciality.
100%
When PEH has space and his head up, his long passing is decent. He knocked a few great pings but it’s the tight/pressured scenarios when he chucks bombs to others
He reminds me of the player my name is for. The difference being Michael Brown was not a sissy, did his job and despite being bang average had real heart and wouldn't have let Thomas Rapey Partey waltz all over him without kicking the bastard up in the air.
I think he'll make a good manager one day...
You know, like the type of manager (MOURINHO, Wenger, Ferguson) who were nothing special as players... but somehow convert that uselessness into a decent managerial style!!
He can point and wave his arms all he wants from the touchline... it'll translate as 'passion'!!
Or maybe not!
He'll still spend his managerial career waving his arms and pointing at his coaching staff instead!!

I have been trying to educate very slow Spurs fans since Mourinho days, about exactly these short comings whilst people like The Dealer kept banging on about. . but but but he keeps getting picked,and talking about his aggregate score or some such 'extra Inch' nonsense. Well now it looks like it's gone fully mainstream. The system and this footballers failings will anchor our ass to mid table. He has to go, he is a massive part of our problems.

without bentancur he looks like totally lost
Poor last night, and Skipp wasn't great either. Need to play a midfield 3.
He actually reminds me quite a lot go Granit Xhaka, think he can turn it around under another manager and start producing at a high level.
Was a huge part of why we couldn’t build from the back when we were up a man.
Everton were down a man and easily passed through our “press”.

PSB wherever he may be.
He's the sort of player to sprint 40 yards to receive a 2 yard pass from the keeper only to give it straight back then give a mighty roar and punch the air in relief.
I feel he's at his best when there is nothing to lose like when our chips are down and he gets a bit braver on the ball and starts to drive up the pitch
He's a box to box player. His biggest strength is his energy. He's definitely not a 6
