Højbjerg Continues To Impress With A Red Hot Performance Against Reading [video]

By The Boy -
Red hot: Højbjerg’s heat map against Reading

It’s difficult to remember when Spurs last had a no-nonsense midfield enforcer on the books. Yes, it was only Reading, but this is what this guy does for a living. A none shall pass performance.

Pierre-Emile’s added bonus as a player is similar to that of Mousa Dembele, in that he makes very aggressive dribbles. Here are all of them from this 74 minutes against Reading.

Hojbjerg’s passing accuracy was absolutely on point at 84%, the Dane’s all-time average is 86.9%.

Pierre’s all-time duel winning percentage is 50.3%, so it’s pleasing to see our boy notably raise his game against Championship opposition.

The idea that Dembele not yet being replaced two years after he left isn’t anything to do with Levy. We could have done even better had he been…

He wasn’t finished but he knew if he continued in this league it wouldn’t be long before he was. Tanguy can play. He may not be playing at the moment but he still can. Baller. The worlds a “mess

He was finished, couldn’t play two games in 10 days because of fitness. The main problem was Levy not replacing him and hoping Skipp would step up to save some money. Two years too late he brings in Tanguy… it’s a mess.

I like Dier, dunno why so many people are slating him. All players have a loss of form but he’s 100% professional and committed. We need that.

He’s running a hotel with his missus in Spain, tempt him back at his age from the sunshine? I like Tel, I’m sure he’d have some ideas but probably a few years ago.

Marked, ” Strictly confidential”. It’s a leg pull I think. The “document” does such a good job of pointing out Tottenham’s assets and future income that it would make ENIC think twice about selling or else double the price.

I wonder how he’s doing. He’d better’ve changed his aggressive game or he won’t be playing for much longer

The document also explains that “the club’s world class stadium hosts international sports events, including NFL and rugby games in Europe, as well as non-sporting events.”

“hosts” really?
name every event it has hosted Mr Fakir (sic)

I only remember Moose coming off worse one time and that was Pogba but he probably tripped/pushed him.

That would take me hours to write. And would be impossible for me without the predicative spelling ting. My grammar has improved a lot since coming on here (don’t laugh) I’m a tools man. Did you do it without the spelling thing? Commers&full stops, rubbish at it I am🌚. Thanks harry by the way. Also connecting words that my grandson keeps on getting at me for🌚

Strategic Growth Investments directors generally seem to have US University degrees, and most of them seem to have an oriental background. I would assume to use a firm like this, you would be appealing to the US market for investors. I did hear from two reasonable sources some months ago that Lewis was quietly looking for a buyer, and that he was handling it himself, without recourse to Levy’s negotiating skills. I pass this on for what it is worth which is probably very little.

The worldwide economy is in a desperate state, who in their right minds are going to buy a football club that has crippling debts and an uncertain future regarding it’s levels of income, It couldn’t be a worse time to sell I imagine, never mind the exaggerated price Levy will want for it.

The Dier-Dembele axis was awesome, i thought it was more than a season though. I rate Dier, I dont know why but to me he is a very important squad member despite his limitations.

Its probably more to do with him threatening to kill fabregas.

Stay classy, Eric.

Before Wanyama came Dier was great for one season alongside Dembele. Bit of a mystery as to what happened to both Dier and Trippier after the World Cup…

Might be something in it but is seems like more of a wind up to me. Hope it’s true though, so long as the buyer doesn’t have the same plans as ENIC. Like not putting any of their own money into it for example.

A document claiming to be an indication that Tottenham Hotspur is up for sale has been getting the fans talking, but is there any truth behind it?

The emailed takeover document, which has been circulating around social media and WhatsApp groups, is titled Project London, and labelled as ‘strictly confidential’ and speaks about buying into a Premier League club.

It is presented as a document from Strategic Growth Investments, a real firm that “acts as a constructive intermediary between collaborative capital sources and compelling investment opportunities”.

The detailed sheet of paper claims: “Strategic Growth Investments has the unique opportunity to invest in, or acquire a controlling interest in, a top performing English Premier League club in London.

“SGI is currently in direct discussions with the decision-makers of the team in regards to a private sale of the majority ownership position (75 per cent) at a valuation between £1.25billion ($1.65billion) and £1.5billion ($2billion).

“This is a compelling, rarely available opportunity to invest in a well-managed, profitable team with the ability to generate returns via current income as well as long-term capital appreciation.”

While the club is never named throughout, there are enough obvious clues to suggest which one it is.

This include: “The club has one of today’s most popular English footballers, along with one of the most recognizable (sic) Asian footballers the world has seen to date, creating great brand appeal and further sponsorship opportunities in a large global market.”

The document also explains that “the club’s world class stadium hosts international sports events, including NFL and rugby games in Europe, as well as non-sporting events.”

It adds: “This transaction includes prime real estate, already with approval plans, for luxury real estate, including retail, sports complexes, museums and hotel development of the adjacent lands.”

It also speaks about “a large marketing opportunity for investor, including naming rights to the stadium and other sponsorship”.

The document asks for indications of interesting from potential limited partners by Sunday August 30 with a letter of intent submitted by Monday August 31.

Tottenham are owned by ENIC, who are part of the Bahamas-based private investment organisation Tavistock Group owned by billionaire Joe Lewis.

Chairman Daniel Levy said back in March at a meeting with the Supporters’ Trust that there was “no intention to sell and that no valuation had been made of the equity value” of the club
