Portuguese U21 and Tottenham Hotspur youngster Gedson Fernandes played 92-minutes for his country yesterday, and there are a fair number of positives to share about the boy’s performance. Gedson got 2 shots away on goal, both of which were denied.
Yes, my friends, shot assists are a thing and as per previous comments, they do give us a flavour of the involvement that players can have in a game and Gedson did get himself rather stuck in, on 5 occasions.
Touches in the box? Gedson achieved no less than 7.
Conclusions? He’s a really nice kid, but at least one million miles away from Premier League standards. Whoever sanctioned this deal needs looking at…
