I'm fully aware of the lads age before that's used as his defence. If you're good enough age doesn't matter is what people correctly say, but this lad apart from 1 kick has not shown he is anywhere near good enough.
From what I can see, he is a long long way and a few loan spells away from our first team. He makes kwp look competent at the moment. I'm failing to see flashes of brilliance or a mind that reads the game well to be honest. Perhaps my expectations were far too high, but all I really hoped for from a youngster was a bit of useful pace on the flank.
Useless is what we got. Fucking useless. Scared perhaps or just not good enough. Was excited to see his name again on the team sheet, but age has never been a concern of mine above performances - and he is going to have to work hard and dig deep to win me around now.
He’s trapped in the Janssen paradox at the moment: bought as young prospect but injuries mean the 15-20 minute cameos that should be happening have become full games. In his defence over Vinny, he’s not in his best position at LB.I will agree with Jose on this one. He isn't ready to be a LB and has more qualities up front. He has shown a couple times when playing up front that he has the willingness to make runs off the shoulders of defenders. His champ goal scoring form also shows he has a Dele knack for being in the right place at the right time.
That being said, I was never sold on this move and thought there were far more talented attackers we could have signed during the two plus windows we were rumored to be chasing him.
David Brooks being the one I wanted.
Mou making a mistake switching him up to LB so early.Weak as piss atm. Anyone of us on this forum could of done what he did today
He's playing under Jose's instructions. You've only got to compare him to his other performances when he was a wing-back/wide AM to see the differences.Has offered absolutely nothing in the last 2 games. Absolute garbage.
Can’t seem to beat a man either
Quite a few of our attackers can in fairness, but none of our full backs can, which is a big issue.Who can at this point? Maybe Lamela and Son?

Needs to play advanced and unshackled.
Not sure who's more of an attacking threat, him or Ben Davies
You see this is why our current situation is horrendous
How old is Sessegnon?
The guy is here for the long term. A real prospect.
But we are so bereft of quality and example that we focus on his limitations as opposed to looking at his potential.
Look at the players around him and the same to some extent at Foyth.
Just who can they learn from?
Fcuk me.
Think just confidence and maybe frightened of losing the ball when playing as a wing back, when he was forced on the outside he did alright.To be fair whenever I watched him at Fulham, he didn't seem the type to take on and beat a man - just made his name scoring goals, usually tap ins or through great movement off the ball.
So to expect that off him, especially this early on in his Spurs career is probably a bit much. I actually like what I've seen from him as a full back in terms of defending. If he can manage to get forward and find himself at the back post for crosses or as an outlet on breaks, he could be an incredible asset.
