Bergwijn slander gives me head pain, he'll be a good player for years to come. Attacking confidence and rhythm a bit shook from Jose-ball but he'll come good.
Nobody should have to 'help' Doherty. This isn't amateur football, you're either good enough to do your job or you don't play. Doherty would get skinned by lads i play 5 a side with, he's not good enough to play at this level. Either he gets good or he gets fucked off. That's the way it is.
Bergwijn needs to stand on his own 2 feet, picking him so he can help out a rubbish right-back wouldn't really help him or us. With Son out if he plays he needs to prove he can score and assist as ultimately that's what players in his position are supposed to do.
Because he’s shit?
Any FB needs help when the opposition doubles up on him as they did us on Sunday but Bale couldn’t be arsed
Doherty is still shit though!

Nothing to do with not being arsed, it's not his job to bail out a diabolically shit right-back. He's picked for his creative output not there to babysit a player who the average park footballer could run past for fun.
The answer on Sunday was get Doherty off the fucking pitch ASAP but no instead the dinosaur cunt takes off our most talented footballer to put another carthorse on there to help the other donkey he's left out there. And people wonder why we're struggling.
So if we took Doherty off who do we put on?
Sissoko?
Bale wasn’t creating anything
He was shocking imv
Not the only one either
He had Aurier on the bench didn't he? Even if he left Doherty on there he could easily have moved Lucas to the right and put Bale inside. Lucas would do a better job of 'helping' Doherty.
The point is there were options that didn't involve removing Bale, especially as we'd already lost Son to an injury. As usual Jose picks the one that involves removing a talented attacker so he can get another donkey out there to protect his outdated low-block bullshit tactics.
Madueke left Spurs in the summer of 2018. Bergwijn joined us roughly 18 months later.
Madueke is getting better coaching for his development as well.
thats fair enough if they pass round him, but hes getting done from one on ones
He doesn't fill me with much confidence, but he's pretty far down our list of immediate problems.
He is a player I want to see under a different manager. He has good close control, quick strong, passes and links well and is a hard worker but seems to lack confidence near goal or has more recently.
He is not a player on the sell list for me as I think there is far more that can be got out of him unlike say Sissoko or Dier who I think there is nothing more to come.

Are you talking about Doherty?
He should have done, fresh legs against a team that had been playing for nearly 2 hours.
I'm not writing him off yet but he's been abysmal this year. I'd like to see him under a new manager but he looks nothing like the player we signed right now. He was better in his first 3 months than he's looked all season. If that's down to coaching or poor management i'm not sure but he's one of the biggest disappointments this season.
