Player Watch Player Watch: Giovani Lo Celso

[SpursSince1980]

Sadly this signing will probably mean we never will see Danny Rose in central midfield again. Shame.

Know what you mean. Haven't felt this sad since Bale was forced to stop playing left back.

Weird it hasn’t been announced. Is it really done?

Where is the signing ?

 

[Gassin's finest]

As much as it would be nice to get a big fee for Eriksen, I'd quite like him to see out the season just to see how we play with both him and Lo Celso in the team. With those 2 on the pitch our tactical flexibility, creativity and ball retention will be so much better and will hopefully prove the importance of having more than 1 intelligent, creative midfielder.

A 4-2-2-2 of sorts.

Foyth - Toby - Verts - Rose
N'dombele - Winks
Eriksen - Lo Ceslo
Son - Kane​

We always take ages to announce signings. We'll be putting together some video. Or waiting for Dybala to arrive

If Eriksen stays and plays at least as well as he did last season we'll be a quality side and i'd be really confident about us winning something.

Yeah or Poch's beloved diamond with Lo Celso on one side and Eriksen at the top.

I still think our best formation is 4-2-3-1 so would like to see us play that with maybe Eriksen and Lo Celso interchanging behind Kane, and Son playing on the left. I think Lo Celso would also be effective in a double pivot and would give us an alternative to Winks beside Ndombele.

An early announcement for these two bodes well for a late announcement of another player IMO.

In contrast no early announcement makes this destined to look like our only two deals of the day now....

 

[Yiddo100]

Igi says it’s done

 

[Lily White Lady]

Igi has spoken!

I missed that!! Good news so!!

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

What an amazing signing. Really feel this guy gives us the options we craved last season. No more prosaic passing when Winks is injured now we have GLC and NDombele to fill in and compliment.

 

[Arthur Hucksake]

Still haven't seen him hold up the shirt, and time is now up.

 

[Dannyspur]

Can he take corners?

After years of Dier, Wanyama, Sissoko and Dembele, it will be nice to have some central midfielders that are creative and comfortable passing the ball forwards. Dembele is a footballing God but he was such a conservative passer.

Wait, your saying Sissoko doesn't remind you of Ardiles in his prime?

Ffs it’s annoying to have all this build up to the announcements, it’ll probably just be some 30 second clip of them saying COYS
