Player Yves Bissouma

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

why has biss been off couple of things really, porro pushes up destiny pushes and then sarr pushes up. that leaves him on an island on the counter, and because of that even when he has the ball he cannot take the risk of dribbling also which is part of his game, i think with him and bentacour because benny is more experienced than Pape who is having a great season by the way so he picks and chooses when to push up. Just my two cents.
 
Thanks for the strawman.

I didn't do what you claim.

Thanks for gaslighting.

You did exactly that.

When another poster mentioned that Bissouma is not a goalscorer nor progressive passer, you replied "Neither was/did Dembele." and to other part about Bissouma assists being low and that he is not playing long balls you liteally replied "Again; ditto Dembele."

You just throw the name around and think it is an argument. Fully disregarding the fact that Dembele HAD some really unique abilities - namely to be able to keep and shield the ball under unreal pressure. Something that Bissouma does not have. Nor has any other player. Or has had since days of Dembele.

So you point out things that Dembele did not have to compare him with Bissouma but leave out absolutely unique thing he had (but Bissouma does not possess). It is beyond ridiculous.

Nah.... You just waded into on a longer convo and commented without context.

All my point was is that u can be an effective box 2 box mf without racking up G&A.

At no point did I claim that Biss is as good as Dembele.

I am absolutely spot on and your this comment confirms it. Because you still use Dembele as proof to your argument, despite him being literally one-and-only-such type player over decades. And this means that your argument has 0 proof.
 
Either gets in groove and plays on instinct, amazingly.

Or is in his own head too much, not letting his game flow and has stinkers.

I really like Biss, but we need consistency.

Tough one, but we need to solve this.
 
Simply can't be the same player that we saw from the start of the season. This current guy is a complete imposter. So much so, that I'm crying out for PEH to start games ffs!
 
Only the myopic think this guy is good enough.

The problem is that one of those is the manager.

If I were Hjojberg, I would just think why bother if under-performances keep getting rewarded.
