a natural leader .. funny how the other players don;t seem to respect his leadership as much as the SC crowd..

as for BUsquets comparisons. Just leave this here for you

Accounts like this is why I hate football Twitter. Seen the Moura one as well. It's so unbelievably toxic and pathetic.

These people aren't Tottenham fans.

Anyone who doesn't see how good a player Hojberg is, and what abilities he brings to the team, just doesn't really understand football. It's a bit mystifying really. I can't even be bothered to argue it, it's so obvious.

He seems to have stepped it up again

Just don't know where to start with this post to be honest.

Twitter accounts like that actually do make me worry about the state of the world.

Wow what kind of pathetic life must the person behind that Twitter account have to spend their life taking the time to edit every single mistake a player makes in a game of football. Literally the one thing you cannot buy in this life is time. Yet it's being wasted to make those videos and that kind of Twitter account.

Thats an actual account? And people follow it? Fucking Christ on a bike. If that’s not an Arsenal fan running that account then I really don’t know. That shit is so lame.

It could be one of the Southampton fans who decided Hojbjerg became an awful player the moment he wanted to leave them.

I’ve been without social media apps for around a year now and feel so much better for it. Twitter in particular is a breeding ground for trolls and parasites…

Same here, there is still a bit on here but nowhere near as toxic.

True! But it’s easier to mute the toxic trolls on here.

Everyone appreciates his work rate and he is excellent at winning the ball back and when given time he can pick a pass. My issue with him is when we are pressed he seems to vanish as his mobility off the ball and with the ball makes it hard for teammates to find him when pressed or for him to beat the press himself. The thing is if he was better in those areas he wouldn't need to make as many blocks and tackles as we would have more of the ball. I actually think people would appreciate him more if he was played in a 3 so he wasn't as responsible for getting the ball moving quickly which is definitely his main weakness.

If you are going to post clips from a game show all the clips? Where were the key contributions to the goals for example - edited out? We dominated Leicester's supposedly amazing 3 man CM in that game, largely down to Skipp and Højbjerg who were both excellent.

Same game for example ..

Get to fuck with this toxic bullshit. So sick of so called fans running down our own players and club.

Who ever runs that account should go and focus on some other team or sport, cause they sure as hell aren’t a Spurs supporter.

A three-man midfield is far more viable now that Conte has a fourth CM (Bentancur) who is trusted and fits his system - rather than having to use Dele/Ndomblele/Lo Celso any time one of Hojbjerg/Skipp/Winks is unavailable or needs to be subbed off. Hopefully Sarr will be a fifth trusted CM next season, but I suspect he might need another 1-2 years of development before Conte can regularly turn to him. The 5-2-3 (or 3-4-3?) that we played at the weekend looks to be Conte's preferred formation though.

+Pep knows PEH decently well as managed him at Bayern (I think he also initially envisaged him as his Bayern busquets…)

Envisioned, but he quickly realised he was never going to reach that level

As the players around him get to a better standard he gets more important IMO

His ability isnt the best, but his workrate and determination can rub off on those around him, so we need someone like him in there

He is exactly what Paraciti and Conte were talking about when they talk about looking at the person first before the player. I think he will shine with Bentancur, who seems to be able to control the ball and pace of the game.

Twitter really is the prolapsed anus of the internet.

What about his goal saving block? What about his key passes for the berg goals that saved us. He did a hell of a lot of great things in that game.

 

[Guntz]

There's a reason why he's been an ever-present under every manager.

Proper warrior.
