Player Xavi Simons

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The EPL looks too fast & physical for him! Besides like Tel if he/they were of the next great thing does anybody honestly think we’d have them? Like fuck Bayern would not have let him go nor PSG got rid they were obviously no convinced he’d already been loaned by them. So we better hope Frank can do something with them cos we’re stuck with them now
 
Xavi Simons - worst PL player of the season.

The opposite of baller.
First touch of an elephant, sorry elephant...
As slow as a sloth , sorry Sloth...
As dumb as a dodo, sorry Dodo....

Every time ball goes near him , I wince in pain.

Sell him in Jan FFS, I cant watch this idiot anymore
 
I have seen absolutely nothing that gives me any hope that this guy is going to come any time soon.


He can't hold the ball, he can't pass, he can't shoot, he can't cross


All he can do is run into trouble and lose the ball.


This is a 3 out of ten performance so far.

And I wish he was the only one, but it's everyone at the moment.
 
Has been looking like your average highly touted but flop of a Chelsea signing, no need to sugarcoat it.

With how inferior he already is physically, he absolutely cannot afford to be mentally unsharp as well.Yet that's how he has been, culminated in that schoolboy level lapse in concentration.

Would have been a nice addition to an already functioning frontline , think of DESK for example, but at the moment he is nowhere near good enough to lift from the ground this highly dysfunctional attack the way Kudus is doing.

Can we please get him some sessions in the weight room? Just gets pushed off the ball soooooo easily.


Can the same person also teach him,

  1. to make a first touch and not let the ball go 5 yards away....
  2. when you are in counterattack and ball comes to you...dont stop and admire, go forward
  3. to make those 5 yard passes to your teammate reaches them
  4. to make forward passes...
  5. to cross the ball when you have men waiting in box

I reckon these issues stem from the fact he is so concerned about getting pushed off the ball that he is now rushing his decisions or taking the most conservative approach (passing backwards). Definitely don't disagree with any of the above though...

Wirtz cost twice as much and has both the same issues and a much better bunch of players around him
