The acclimatization of Tanguy Ndombele at Tottenham has been a gruelling experience. In the Amazon show, All or Nothing, the scene with Daniel Levy, the player liaison wallah and Tanguy himself was plain bizarre. Our illustrious CEO was in full open necked shirt holistic mode and Tanguy himself looked as if he was completely confused as to what he was doing at the club, let alone in that room. When José Mourinho called the Frenchman out for being ‘always injured’, it was clearly a moment that caused a huge feeling of disrespect, a moment which wasn’t quick to repair.
Thankfully, a peace was brokered and now we have a player who is growing into the beast that we all hoped that he might be. As with Hojbjerg, this is precisely the type of player that could absolutely flourish under José, and become one of the most feared midfielder in the country.
More, please!
