Player Watch: Rodrigo Bentancur

[gibbospurs]

Bents and Sarr are solid as fook! He’s getting back up to speed. Was shooting on Sunday and tackling like he wanted to prove a point.

Whatever happened to him getting banned for a spell. Did the Club find a way to make that disappear?

No, the FA just move things along at a snail’s pace. It’ll be announced at some point in this season. It’ll probably be timed to either coincide with an injury to Bissouma, or the congested Xmas period, just to exacerbate the impact. Not because of any wild conspiracy but simply because of the unique combination of FA incompetence and classic Spurs misfortune.

Shhhh. I think the FA have forgotten.


Nah, they'll wait until he's reaching his absolute peak again and then ban him for 10 games. Thus maintaining the Bentancur cycle of misfortune (well, technically he brought this one on himself...).

 

[Super_spurs25]

Not much to be positive about tonight, but Bentancur was quality when he came on. Certainly looking back to his best imo.

 

[Danny1]

On his day he truly is a rolls Royce of a footballer.

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

World class when he’s on it.

 

[chas vs dave]

Sensational today.

 

[jpascavitz]

My favorite player over the last few seasons. He dragged us through victories for a while under Conte. Obviously had a tough time post ACL but looking like he is ramping back up to his best. Hope it continues. Thought Bissouma was good tonight too and hard to say that we don't need two of bissouma/sarr/bentancur on for at least 30-45 minutes per match since they've each been doing well.

 

[Yiddo100]

Long time ago now but nice to see he’s come back from that ACL and shown he is still as good.

 

[Stamford]

We're going to beat about this ban soon.

 

[Chimbo!]

We're going to beat about this ban soon.

What does that mean?

 

[Stamford]

What does that mean?

Hear about his ban soon. Typo.

 

[Danny1]

What does that mean?

Assuming he meant “hear” not “beat”

 

[greaves]

Assuming he meant “hear” not “beat”

Let’s not beat about the bush

 

[Timbo Tottenham]

Let’s not beat about the bush

Let’s not *hear about the bush.

 

[Mouse!]

Let’s not beat a heary bush

 

[greaves]

Let’s not beat a heary bush

Let’s keep running up that hill.

 

[sidford]

Yes I know it's from Twitter but spursjourno on there is saying it's likely a 7 game ban. He is very decent on transfer stories etc. usual pinch of.salt but he isn't a WUM

 

[YB123]

Everytime Bentancur starts getting into his best form its either an injury or a ban.

The most Tottenham Hotspur player ever.
