Player Yves Bissouma

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

All our players turn to shit eventually. Read these player threads its the same story all over.
Some of them are shit when we sign them and with many others we find a way of making promising players turn to shit.

We are a shit factory at the moment.

Porro, Udogie, Biss, Dragusin and many others looked decent upon arrival but soon embraced Spurs shit inducing programme

Even Son is now sprouting shitness where greatness once grew.

Spurs are shit.

Levy is shit.

Enic are shit.
 
Bossed the game at their gaff last year. Thought he was going to lead us to glory. :thumbdown:

Problem is - I think he's still our best option in that role until/unless Gray develops. It's the single most important position in the team. Literally cost us the game with that losing of the ball...
Our best option in that role is Bentancur .... or was before his knee injury.. just dont look the same player since....im gutted for the lad as I thought when he first came we actualy had a world class player in our midst.... theres still time I hope for him to regain his star quality.

These players do t become poor overnight.They are not being used correctly , in a stupid system and certainly getting poor coaching.
 
Revisionism here: was a killer at Brighton, half the division wanted him.

If half the division wanted him we wouldn’t have got him.

There were rumours about his dodgy behaviour so we had a free run at him. After three years we can see that we bought a mediocre player who doesn’t play with any real personality and might be a bit of a dodgy bloke off the pitch. Conte sized him up correctly way back. Not a player you want to rely on if you want to achieve anything.

Yeah bags of talent but not a serious professional.

You can't expect to get anywhere with someone like that as your main 6. It's such a vital role.
 
He’s being made to look worse than he is by this manager. Our midfield is a shit show because of our tactics.
Yes, Ange is to blame, but only partially. Biss has been a major disappointment ever since joining. He was crap under Conte. And there's the off field issues...you do balloons as a 28yo pro footballer, that says a lot about where you're at intelligence-wise.

Perhaps he'd look better next to prime Roy Keane, but we ain't ever gonna buy a true world class No 6.

FFS.... Why are people so mis-informed (and determined to not be set straight) about Biss?

so we had a free run at him.

He himself said that Arse we also after him.

......and might be a bit of a dodgy bloke off the pitch.

............You'd think after the police decided he had no thing to answer for that people would wind this shit in.
 
Pedro Porridge couldn't be coached to defend by Paulo Maldini.

He just hasn't got the minerals.

The Tamworth winger had Porridge on toast last weekend.

National League; 40 mi££ion.

He's about as a good as a defender as Trent but clubs nowadays don't worry so much about players who can cause more damage going the other way, that's where the game has gone hence why Real want Trent...they don't worry about defence because he's a net positive going forward.

Very rare to get a full back who is as strong defensively who is as good as attacking.

Are we having a serious conversation?
 
I see.

Well my starting point is that Porridge is so poor defensively I no longer care what he does going forward.

Other teams target Porro and the right side for a reason.

They create multiple opportunities by doing so.

Cool and in this setup he's always going to be exposed, exactly like Trent is at Liverpool, he doesn't get any cover from the wingers instead the midfielder is expected to shuffle across to cover him.

Anyway he's been crap, no one can really dispute that, he's also been flogged to death with 0 rotation and he's playing in a Mish mash back 5 and a team low on confidence so it's a bit unfair to judge him right now.

He needs a rest, it was only the other day where he was brilliant against Newcastle...

I disagree.

The Tamworth winger, who had Porro's pants down, had to get up for work the next day.

The Tamworth winger needs, (deserves) a fucking rest.

Spence is clearly a better option at right back and has somehow managed to be completely overlooked as an option in his natural position, even when Pedro is 'tired' / overused or any other current excuse being offered for his poor defending.

Do you think Baldy has instructed Ange to leave Spence out of the side completely, before he was forced to give Spence a game, and now Spence's secret is out, that he is actually the best full back at Spurs on either flank, that he can only be used on the left to protect the bald miser's 40 million investment in the masquerading Porridge pot?
