That is the very last thing I think Sissoko could be accused of.

There's very little in it. I think Sissoko on balance was more effective. I was at the Emirates when Partey owned Hojbjerg, never forgiven him. Sissoko might have at least fought back. They were both utter pants
Where does that come from Rocket? Hojbjerg a leader Sissoko lazy. It bared zero relationship with the truth. Both technically limited but Sissoko was quicker fitter and worked probably harder. People want to hide behind the image but oddly you can't compare the two of them in terms of relative 'success ' and conclude Hojbjerg was clearly superior. They were both not what we needed and there's little in it with inmho opinion the French man shading it. People can disagree all they like, but it's not the no brainer they want to pretend it is.
There it is the weird myth that surrounds Sissoko is all a bit odd. He wasn't in anyway lazy and he was more influential for the club than Hojbjerg's pointing can ever aspire to. I think Hojbjerg is rated by people who never watched him live.actually won a player of the year award at the club lol. he was respected.
Moussa Sissoko crowned Legends' Player of the Season | Tottenham Hotspur
Moussa Sissoko was today (Tuesday 28 May) presented with the inaugural Tottenham Hotspur Legends’ Player of the Season award.www.tottenhamhotspur.com
Where does what come from? I was just questioning the narrative of Sissoko being lazy. In my mind effort was exactly what Sissoko brought to the side above anything else he offered in terms of on field involvement.
I wasn't commenting on the ongoing discussion of Sissoko v Højbjerg. Both good, loyal servants for me.
Where Zokora?
That's my question. Where does the lazy narrative come from? I went home and away during a lot of his tenure, he did loads of shit drove me mad( setting of like the light brigade into seven players on a run that went nowhere!) But never lazy. It's simply a myth as was Hojbjerg 's leadership. To my mind leaders drive you on or dig in and help you see out big games when it matters. It's not about pointing or shouting Ledley King away at Man City to get that first ECL qualification sticks in my mind. He was utterly massive that night. I watched Carlos Tevez shake his head in disbelief after one block. I watched him give up.

They were just 5 that came to mind. Let's be honest, we could do a top 20 no sweat.
Moussa got caught on camera taking it easy during a warm up on the sidelines once when on France duty and it just caught on for the rest of his career in England.
That being said he's far from the only player that takes it easy when warming up on the sidelines. But it seems to have stuck on him for far longer than it has on most.
you're having a fucking mare this week...I'm actually having my doubts you're spurs.
yep that confirms it.
Okay he was hopeless then, Hojbjerg is twice the player he was
Both shit, let’s move on like discussing heart attack vs AIDS
How exactly does a loan with obligation work when he's got one year left on his contract?
works like a loan with an obligation
Best of luck!
