Tanguy Ndombele has proved to be one of the signings of the summer already in his short Tottenham Hotspur career.

Tanguy isn't a porker.
.
Lukaku is - Read yesterday he is tipping the scales at 104 kgs and apparently he won't be in the starting line up until he is under 100 kg.

Lukaku isn't fat he's a unit. He's posted photos of himself topless and I would love to be called fat with that body.
If they want him below 100kg then it's muscle mass they want him to lose.

"And the 22-year-old carried on his good run of form by absolutely bossing the midfield against the imperious Manchester City. "

The stats look impressive. I thought he was nearly-invisible against Man City and that his main achievement was that he was caught in possession less frequently than Winks and Sissoko.

Which is for the best. No one wants a freight train up top.

It would help with mobility , stamina and maybe speed but 104kg is hard to shift off the ball. Depends on what type of player they want him to be I suppose.

I like the fact when he gets the ball he has a vision of where to hit it,most often forward to a player in a flash.
That is good His skill at Lyon was enough.In the PL he needs to be 100% physically ready in the fitness sense. I think 100% he is a really to notch footballer

Do you mean his assist to Lamela was invisible. It's possible the problem wasn't him

He certainly didn't boss anything against city.
Lots of moaning in the match thread that he looked tired and should be subbed off, but MP saw that it was Winks who was not functioning, and when we had Ndombele and Sissoko as a DM pair we looked a little better. That's the best you can say.

Early days yet and he has been through some tough training sessions that he said himself were a bit of a shock compared to what he is used to. He is sure to have a few ‘leggy’ days as his body adjusts.
Time to judge him fairly will be around Christmas when he has adjusted to the pace of the game and will have a CL group campaign under his belt.

You can see he was tired in the second half de Britney ran past him and he had nothing to keep up with him.
