Guy just looks so classy on the ball. Crucially, he is looking leaner to me.and so hopefully well on the way to getting to peak fitness. Absolutely has to start next weekend alongside Sissoko. Winks needs benching.
Hopefully Lo Celso as well... Son and Kane running onto their through balls will be incredible

Fitness maybe.
Pochettinho requested Ndombele he is 100% a Pochettinho buy he will be a main stay with Sessegnon and Lo Celso.

I love how people just conveniently ignore this. NDombele looks a quality player but he has been blowing after 30 minutes in most matches he played. With how relentless Liverpool are I could see the sense starting Winks who plays with more intensity and sharpness currently. It was a different game when NDombele came on as fatigue would have meant more space for him - this wouldn't have been the case if he had started. There was definitely an argument for starting Winks and NDombele together and I would have probably dropped Eriksen as he offered next to nothing at both ends of the pitch.

Is spending money guaranteed to win? No
Ffs we couldn't beat Colchester dont give me this Leicester stuff.
Our football has generally been terrible yes wait...Palace and Red Star apart......
There's no guarantees but the odds will be heavily stacked in your favour...the clubs worldwide that spend the most money general win...I don't make the rules it's a fact.
100% right we lost to Colchester embarrassing no excuse can't defend this sometimes things like this happen.

I agree thousand percent on the last paragraph.
I would have a CM Winks and a DM Dier or Sissoko behind Ndombele and let Ndombele attack with through balls that we havent seen in years.

This guy is a class above. So refreshing to see one of our midfielders passing it forward with precision and urgency.

Yes havent seen that in years
This back and forth game just is good for possession stats it doesnt break down defences
Ndombele can do in one swoop

There is just so much blind rage that people aren't willing to concede that there was a reasoning behind it. Right or wrong.

Our entire midfield was running non stop the first 45. Even Son looked knackered at certain points.

There's always reasoning behind it
Everyone has reasoning. Pochs reasoning wasn't bad.What was bad was he left it too late infact it was the usual 60 minute change
We were getting pummeled after 10 minutes. He was let's say 30 minutes late

I hope all you Poch Out guys realise that if Poch leaves so will your new favourite player Ndombele, he signed for us because Poch convinced him, he said that himself

Be careful what you wish for, that’s all I’m saying

A moment that seems to capture Pochettino's current mood.
When asked about Ndombele seeming to make a positive contribution after coming on, Pochettino replied: "A big difference. Doing what?"

This is unforgivable. Sack Poch now. Toxic, toxic wanker.

He actually replied with that???

Just seen that quote. Utterly disgraceful. What the fuck is wrong with him???

lol if you say so, he's on £200k a week on a 5 year contract, no-one's gonna pay what Levy wants for him, besides you really think he's gonna care that much for Poch, he'll forget about him once the new guy is in, that's how it generally works.

I saw it as he protecting Harry Winks, don't think he done himself much favours at getting so defensive though.

Look I've been a Tottenham supporter from before they were both born.I have no fear.
I dont think Poch should go now yet but he has hit a brick wall.
It's not Levy. Its Poch. He has to get more out of the players.
I'm not looking for winning the league but I like to see growth.We have stagnated. So dont ask me what I'm going to do about it ask Poch what he is going to do about it
