Maybe reading into things too much, but find it interesting his name isn't listed among those we're trying to offload, from this Matt Law article: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/footbal...enham-stay-pierre-emile-hojbjerg-could-leave/

Other than potentially selling Hojbjerg, Spurs are looking to offload Davinson Sanchez, Ivan Perisic, Ryan Sessegnon, Giovani Lo Celso and Sergio Reguilon, while Harry Winks is poised to join Leicester City.
Agree you are reading too much into it.

Tanguy is either going to impress Ange (🙏) or he's not, which will likely mean the end of his Spurs story. I truly hope he buckles down and buys into Ange's training and philosophy because Ange likes risk takers and Ndombele has that mercurial ability to do some incredible things on the pitch - he just needs to improve his work rate and attitude and he could be an instrumental part of our season. All up to him.
We’ve suffered him for 4 seasons. He won’t change…Ange will bomb him out

Nice to see TN looking spritely, full of enthusiasm and keen to impress the new gaffer from the off. /s

...stepping out of the taxi dripping in fashion and saying: "shiiiiiiiiiii"

Don't think it'll take Ange long to figure him out.

At 26 years old he is what he is now imo and expect him to be out on loan again as struggling to see anyone on the continent coughing up for him and picking up the wage he is on. Is he going to take a massive wage cut to go somewhere else, play regularly and rebuild his career? Not seeing it. Absolute waste of a talent but get the impression he doesn't really give too much of a damn.

Looks like someone who has hit the jackpot with a big contract and gone into cruise control thinking he can carve out a career just on his flashes of brilliance but not much more. Can't build modern day sides with players like him who you simply can't trust and reminds me of someone Harry Redknapp would have indulged on 15 years ago.

Seriously, what did you expect to see in those 10 seconds?

Someone did an extended twitter post about his body language and the fact he was driven in. Ignoring the fact a few of the others were also driven in.

some people just hate him and should just say so. Some of the fanbase are so irritating

I have to say, and it’s only my perception of course, but neither Ndombele nor Lo Celso have ever struck me as doing anything that would illustrate them being truly bothered about being here.

I’m sure they both have talent, and in the most part that will be wasted, but for me, two of the first to be shown the door. We need players who actively want to be here.

I can’t see Ange having the wool pulled over his eyes. Well, I hope not anyway. They’ve had all their chances and it’s been debated since they first arrived, which tells us everything we need to know.

He could've been making eye contact two seconds before or after this photo was taken. Truly incredible the lengths people will go to dig him out.
That photo is all the information offered, the point being to make an amusing or salient comment. Frankly he’s already given me all the information I need to dig him out.
