Scored 1 goal in his first 13 Premier League games, before he found his feet around december. There was a lot of question raised around him at the begining. Attitude and work rate wise.
The comment I was responding to said ‘after first season’.

If it had said ‘after first three months’ that’s be different. There were loads of morons who didn’t see ‘it’ (albeit he’d been great in UEFA cup).

But nobody would’ve seen Berbatov written off after a season, not one person.

Well tomorrow NDombele will be going live on Instagram and will be answering questions.

Taking the good news out of the stupid idea to hold a training session, at least Jose is giving him the extra coaching.

Wouldn't expect him to do that if he is wanting rid of him.

@GFFN: Barcelona have registered their interest with Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombele, with the player having told his camp that he does not intend to have a 2nd season at Spurs if conditions don't change, according to tomorrow's L'Équipe. More follows.

For those questioning the validity of the report, let's not forget he had a L'equipe journalist accompany him for his medical/finalization of the transfer to write a "behind the scenes" piece, so it's not unfeasible they might know more than us.

With Ndombele, LEquipe were pretty much the only outlet not to jump the gun last summer. The real challenge here is not their validity as it relates to Ndombele but rather if GFFN is appropriately translating the piece. If Ndombele wants it out he was not happy with Mourinho's session, LEquipe is almost definitely the outlet he would go too.

I bought LEquipe subscription last summer's window because I got so infuriated at GFFN's poor translations of articles. Not that they cannot speak French but rather they are run primarily by Arsenal fans and therefore what they post re:Spurs is often only the bad news in a piece or specifically a negative slant.

Such a bullshit story. Why would we ever consider selling if Jose was willing to flaunt social distancing rules to train with him?

It doesn’t say we are intending on selling him, it says the player wants to leave.

If true, of course.

I would sell to raise funds for more important areas of the pitch. The way things are going we might need to, if all our cash reserves are going on keeping the club afloat for three months with no income.

Honestly what is he thinking. Naturally of all of us are sitting here under lockdown, rewatching all Jose's games in charge, just to see beautiful flow, great tactics and winning mentality ... and here is this world class player complaining

???

If we need to raise funds to strengthen the team, he’ll be the first out the door. Won’t bother me. It seems it will take a major attitude change from him to be a success here.

Could Mourinho of gone to visit him because the player was feeling lonely and isolated. As believable as him being surprised at Mourinho turning up at his flat, which sounds a lot less likely. Guess it depends on which direction of spin the particular paper puts on it.
