He’s so impressive it makes me wonder why it took so long for anyone to give him a proper chance.
Guaranteed starter now.
His name always makes me think of those old Tango ads... You know when you've been Tanganga'd

He was really decent going forward when he played at RB and given a licence to attack. Almost scored a cracker and could've easily got an assist or 2. Today he was clearly instructed to stay deep.Immense defending again. Nothing going forward but that's never been his remit anyway.
They should let him go up for corners because he does attack the ball and he will cause a problem for defenders if the delivery is right.He was really decent going forward when he played at RB and given a licence to attack.

There was some talk of him looking promising in the U23s in the past. He looked good in pre-season, but his recent performances have been a big step up from that. So much for Mourinho not trusting young players!Don't understand how he seems to be do good yet many people never really spoke about him, quality player.
The longer he stayed playing u23 football there was a good chance it might not have happened for him at Spurs.This is a question to our more frequent academy watchers here...I know Tanganga was one of our better defenders while in the youth ranks, but did anyone expect him to make this good a transition into the first team set up?
This is what Luis Binks should be thinking.Mourinho’s system currently seems setup around 1 attacking FB and 1 narrow FB tucking in to almost create a back 3, I think Jose billed it as defend with a back 4, attack with a back 3. Think that suits Tanganga as LB, that’s how Davies played when Jose first arrived. Perhaps this plays to Tanganga’s style. He definitely hasn’t looked fazed at all, and it does make you think who else could step up in the same way.
One thing I’ve noticed today from reading the Spurs Youth thread, is the rumours a number of players are looking to leave after being frustrated with their development pathways. Maybe seeing Tanganga make the breakthrough, and now Jose looking to get more players out on loan for development, maybe that’ll placate some.
