Player Watch Player Watch: Destiny Udogie

[delawarespur]

When you combine his elite physical gifts, his technical security, his attacking instincts, and his hard work off the ball, you get one of the world’s best full backs. Both him and Porro being fit and available is incredibly important for this team, and an underrated need for this team is similar profiles to compete/rotate with them so they’re not overworked. Something to look for in the upcoming windows.

He is so physically dominant for a 21 year old, world is his oyster

 

[allpaths]

most complete game ive seen from him yet, absolute stud.

Was gonna say the same. Just seemed to be even more assured in everything he did.

 

[spurs mental]

Every time I watch him I forget he's 21 years old. Makes me laugh he's this good this young.

 

[mil1lion]

His best defensive display of the season

 

[dirtyh]

He’s a rock star. Unbelievable talent.

My MotM. Real top quality performance

 

[razor1981]

Such a mature head on young shoulders. Took responsibility for covering the centre backs when Bournemouth tried to get in behind and generally made himself available to receive the ball all over the park. Looked composed in possession when things were getting a bit hectic. So impressed with him all season really,but particularly today. Thought he was magnificent.

 

[mil1lion]

Loved the moment 2nd half where he run from halfway and got fouled but kept going and then got knocked down in the box (not enough for a pen mind) but still kept fighting for it. MOTM for me today.

 

[Hawk_Spur]

Thought he had a dip in form after the Chelsea game but he bailed us out of trouble a few times against Bournemouth. Best game of the season.

Some of Paratici’s finest work.

 

[$hoguN]

Such an incredible bit of scouting. Already looks as good as any fullback in World football. Absolute joke we only paid £15 million for him

[chas vs dave]

He was unbelievable on the cover. He needs to improve his initial reading of the game, but has been phenomenal.

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

He was unbelievable on the cover. He needs to improve his initial reading of the game, but has been phenomenal.

For a 21 year old, he’s a phenomenon

 

[Timbo Tottenham]

I’m not sure how that challenge from Solanke wasn’t punished, looks to me like he purposefully tried to take out Udogie yet hurt himself instead.

 

[Impspur1]

Udogie is 21 years old.

Can’t imagine how good he’ll be in 5-6 years if he avoids major injury.

Was an old school libero performance in the first half.

So glad he’s ours.

I can’t imagine how good he’ll be in 6-12 months. Incredible player

 

[mil1lion]

The only trouble is when he covers inside like that we have a player left free on our left side. Credit to him for getting it right as it really saved us. I can't wait to get VdV back though so he can look after our left side more.
