Are your first two good looking?
Ah well, at least you've got two others.God our third kid is hideous.
Sometimes I wish there was a 'sad face' rating.Son has created the most chances in the league for Tottenham this season. This figure is the second lowest across Premier league teams though
I don't feel we create many chance, and that sort of backs it up.
Also, balking at £25m for either Maddison or Grealish is particularly galling
Why the fuck we even bought him? One of the worst scouting results for us.... pathetic player.... this is what mitchell finds using his algorithm....lol

Surprisingly, after looking at those stats, Son has 9 assists this season and Maddison has 5
Maddison’s output is actually quite poor. There’s a reason Southgate doesn’t pick him for England.
Yeah I don't think he is all that personally. Decent but nothing more than that. Grealish is more talented but I'm still not convinced he is all that either.
Totally agree. They both seem to have an attitude problem as well and I’d imagine they’re a pain in the arse to manage.Yeah I don't think he is all that personally. Decent but nothing more than that. Grealish is more talented but I'm still not convinced he is all that either.
Dele > Grealish > Maddison
But none are as good as Sonny!
They all effectively play in the #10 role just in different ways. It really isn't that much of a stretch to compare them.You can’t really compare Dele to them though. Maddison and Grealish are effectively the same player with minute differences. Playmakers. Pure no 10s. Dele is a second striker.
I’d take Grealish over Dele all day long. Moot now as he’s out of our price range, but he’s got so much more to his game.Dele > Grealish > Maddison
But none are as good as Sonny!
They play different roles in different teams so it’s kinda pointless to compare the stats. Grealish has a burst of pace, is a better dribbler, better long range shot, wider range of passing, and more leadership on the pitch. Probably better with his weaker foot as Dele hardly ever uses his left at all.In Dele’s apparently shit season he has played 5 and 6 games fewer than Grealish and Maddison respectively, with 8 goals compared to Grealish on 7 and Maddison on 6, as well as 4 assists compared to Grealish on 6 and Maddison on 3. He’s also created 6 big chances compared to Grealish’s 6 and Maddison’s 7.
Averaging out Dele’s output in these areas, he’s by far the biggest attacking threat both as a goalscorer and as a creator. You could mitigate that by arguing that Grealish has achieved his stats with a worse performing side, but then you have to account for the fact that basically every attack goes through Grealish at Villa, as is also the case for Maddison at Leicester. Additionally, Dele competes with many more attack minded players at Spurs to get amongst these stats than either Maddison or Grealish do.
We focus on Dele’s frustrating qualities but I’d guess that we’d be frustrated plenty by either of the other two as well. Ultimately if he’s having a bad season, it’s only bad by his own standards and by any other measure he’s actually a highly productive player contributing significantly to anything good we do.
