Has the penny dropped for Andros? I really hope so. It's been a long time coming. A good display at the weekend. Swallows and summers I know, but will watch his next two or three appearances with real interest.

interesting comment about his fitness - seems he understands what needs to happen

and from the other ES article:

Since they qualified for their only season in the Champions League in 2010, Spurs have a net spend of £2.5m. The four clubs who finished above them last season — and Liverpool — have a combined net spend of £987.2m. As the club’s American supporters might say: “You do the math”.

You just keep playing like you did against Sunderland and you will. Come on Andros, this is the season to prove yourself

If he can carry on playing for the team rather than himself he can be a very valuable player.

My aim is just to focus on Spurs and the England stuff will take care of itself.

Bingo.

Can't knock the kid's attitude. He has all the tools to be a brilliant player.

It will simply come down to decision making in future IMO.

Too often he's shot when he should pass/cross and vice versa. For me he needs to be thinking as much as possible about setting up his teammates. If he can do that then he will be valuable to the team. Opportunities to score will come too but he should be looking to get more numbers in the assist column than anything else.

hope he gets that he needs to do a lot more than show his fitness to be a regular in the team. Clearly being fit means more chance of having the space, time, oxygen in the brain etc to look up and make a pass but he will need to add intelligence and awareness to his game quickly in addition to fitness if he is going to make it.

Hope he does and his Sunderland cameo was pretty encouraging
