He’s “in contention” for tomorrow’s game, according to the Beeb.

Worth the watch. Changed my mind a bit because I was sure he was coming to play 10 centrally but that was pretty persuasive in suggesting he might start wide left and play into cenral areas.

Will be interesting to see what Frank actually does.
I feel he will play left wing/inside forward at times but I am pretty certain he will be deployed in an 8/10 role like Damsgaard did at Brentford. RKM and Kudus will be the wide forwards like Frank enjoyed with Toney and Mbuemo. I hope to see this anyway as it would be a frightening attack.

Frank was asked this today. He said he’s a 10 who can also play LW.

After that I’m back to agreeing with you, he’s starting most games in the 10.
 
Could see he was running on steam at times.

The Prem is so relentless, the pace takes some adjusting to but the really encouraging thing is that he didn’t struggle with the speed of decision making.

Some big names come here and you can see they just need longer to process. Those are the ones who struggle then go Italy or Spain and look good again
 
He glides about the pitch. His touch is class and always wants to carry the ball when there’s space to run into. I’m fed up seeing passers passing for the sake of it. Kudus and him are guys .They have that strut and arrogance about them too. I want to see in a Tottenham jersey. Bergvall is another who can take a midfielder out the game by driving by them.
I think Xavi is going to a great signing.
