Did You Spot Our 95-Minute MOTM vs Ipswich?

By The Boy -

Hojbjerg’s interceptions versus Ipswich Town

A successful passing accuracy of 94% from a man in a Spurs shirt would normally be a cause for a Harry Winks snooze fest. This was only Ipswich, but what a refreshing sight to behold, a new signing who arrives with no backstory, no inexplicable hang-ups, just a desire to win. Some Tottenham fans will be utterly confused by this lunacy.

Great Dane? Pierre won 67% of his duels against the Portman Road boys. That’s pretty damn respectable, no matter who the opposition might be. For debut performance, this was an unashamedly confident display from the 25-year-old.

HØJBJERG’s 95-minute heat map

The acquisition of Pierre-Emile Højbjerg has been nothing shy of an absolute coup. Ignoring the exceptional value, this Dane typifies the very essence of a José signing. For those in two minds, I suggest you enjoy this post-friendly interview where the Spurs new-boy talks like a seasoned captain.

You tried that one 25 days ago,when I told you Southampton wanted £35m for Hojbjerg ,then it was £25m ,and I said Levy would probably get him for £15m or include Kwp in the deal. Next.

I agree, besides I just can’t see the club giving up on him yet after one season. In flashes he looks like a player who has the ability to dominate games at this level. He needs his role and to take responsibility, grow up or whatever needs to happen.

Possibly in Sweden 1958 long time ago,they drew with West Germany on the way to the quarters.Gerry Armstrong also scored the winning goal to knock the hosts out in Spain in 1982

Danny is still remembered as a Northern Ireland great leading them to the quarter finals of a World Cup,also as one of the best ever captains of Tottenham. Good on you for giving him a shout out.

His first team Glentoran in east Belfast close to were he was born play Motherwell in the next round of Europa league matches this week. Spurs came over for a friendly game with the glens after winning the FA cup I think in 1981

Read in a little autobiography Danny wrote that he took a degree in Aeronautics at St Andrews University and served in the RAF. Highly intelligent as a footballer and journalist, well ahead of his time. His brother Jackie also a Northern Ireland International player for Manchester United was injured in the Munich Air crash and never played again.

Let’s hope a freshen up with a few good characters like PEH will improve the mindset of those around him?

The energy came from Poch before but we lacked leadership on the pitch. No matter who the manger is, having players with a great team ethic and leadership qualities certainly can’t hurt.

Maybe he could ask N’dombele if he’s onboard,if not ,it’s time to jump ship we can’t afford to carry luxury passengers.

Yeah I like PEH – no glamour just grit and a desire to get stuck in for the team. Looking forward to seeing Ndombele and Lo Celso benefit

He didn’t look that bothered under Poch either,we can’t afford to hope that he comes good.

He always takes on one man too many and loses control followed by a lunge/tackle.

Please don’t pray for that. Pray for him and Jose sorting it out (what ever “it is.

I believe at academy level he played further up, maybe he’s not good enough at this level but coaches like him so try him further back I guess..

He had to do the dirty work recovering the ball etc,with such high pass rate can he now not be freed up beside Hojbjerg and coached into playing the forward ball more often.

N’dombele, Dier, Sissoko…i was a big fan of Winks but we have to move on, I can’t stand watching him spin and pass the ball backwards anymore

Who covers if Hojbjerg gets injured and we can’t expect him to play all the games

Winks is the same as Alli, they make two good passes a game and everyone forgets how crap they’ve been for the rest of the game…

Are we crediting this signing to Jose? I thought Levy made all the transfer decisions,or is it just the bad ones.

The real deal, all we need to do now is sell Winks so we don’t get confused…
