Tanguy Ndombele

[blackburn]

I’ve never known a player divide opinion like him, at least all 4 Spurs managers he played under are in agreement

Jose actually played him 80% of the important matches last season...

Bad decision (s).

Bad decision (s).

So you'd rather have seen Winks/Sissoko over Ndombele

 

[Sir Archibald Crooks]

Haven't rated him since we bought him, wish we'd sold him in the summer but comfortably our best player tonight. Low bar admittedly.

Subbing Ndombele for Winks in the Zagreb game cost Jose his job.

He played in every match he was available under Poch except Colchester, too. The idea that he wasn't used by Poch and Mourinho is disprovable with about 2 minutes of research.

Yep, was just about to post that. He was far too easily bypassed on the first goal, being a playmaker is all well and good but you have to offer more to the team when we defend. If you’re standing on the edge of our penalty box you can’t let people just breeze past you.

That’s the biggest difference between him and Dembele. He was a brick wall, I only ever saw Yaya Toure and Pogba cause him any serious trouble. Tanguy by contrast is a dream to play against, like playing against a training cone most of the time.

Attacking v Tanguy = Dream
Defending v Tanguy = Nightmare

I'm a big fan of Ndombele but VERY dissapointed for what he did with the 1st goal. That's the reason people don't rate him that's why he doesn't get into the team. He has to improve on that and its not even particurlarly hard tbh just requires a bit more effort.

The entire back 6 was awful on that goal. The defensive solidity of the squad through the first 3 matches seemed to have been based more on the players than the tactics, at least at this point.

Sissoko don't play for us no more mate.
The game is up with you.
What a plonker!

I'm pretty sure the team being absolute shit for 4 months cost Mourinho his job.

I'm talking about last season which you were referring to ya clown

A 200kg Ndombele is still better than Winks

Not far off.

 

[TeamSpirit™]

Attacking v Tanguy = Dream
Defending v Tanguy = Nightmare

Which is still better than Winks.

Poch rates him and pulled up on Carragher to tell him off.

 

[JDK]

Regardless of his sins, he needs to be reincorporated into our starting 11. He’s miles ahead in terms of talent compared to our other midfielders and has a skill set the others simply don’t.

A midfield three of Ndombele-Hojbjerg-Lo Celso needs to be the ultimate goal if we genuinely want to compete.

 

[Airfixx]

Had some nice spells. Next step needs to string it all together for 90mins....

I fear the Chavs game is a step too soon for him to save us a very tough day at the office.



Palace game a real missed opportunity it feels.....

 

[Kekerinho]

...and then subbed 3 minutes later due to exhaustion.

How do you expect a player who hasn’t featured in over 3 months to last 90 minutes lol.....

 

[Airfixx]

Poch rates him

I got the sense that Poch was under-whelmed once he'd got him through the door.

and pulled up on Carragher to tell him off.

.......Huh?

(Whazzat mean?)

It ain't gonna happen with this guy.
If he doesn't care enough in front of a French crowd he ain't gonna care on a cold night in Burnley.
