Two sublime assists…
For a central midfielder, hitting 95% even if it were against an already relegated Norwich City, is impressive. To then have the confidence, the wit, and the ability to provide two assists is even more pleasing.
Elsewhere, the Argentine managed to make 5 interceptions, as well as recover the ball on 3 occasions.
Sure, Spurs have thumped a number of sides in free-fall this season, but this is a useful opportunity, to repair the squad’s mood and hopefully establish a winning mentality.
Who said January was bad for transfers… 🤷🏻♂️
Benty and Kulu have had a huge impact on the team with their commitment and desire to play, just as much as weeding out those who were not up to the job has been to the players morale.
I really hope there is more to come from them next season.
I wasn’t able to watch the game yesterday but my only concern with him is whether he can cope with a really quick tempo game. He was completely off the pace against Liverpool.
Bentancur is class, especially if he is given space like yesterday. He, PEH and Skippy are fine as the middle two in Conte’s 343. Winky makes 4, and Conte rates him so we’ll probably see the same lot next season.
I don’t really see a spot here for Gio and Tanguy so I expect them to be sold, if possible for a reasonable bid.
DunnaGunner..that’s what happened.
I agree Paul ..but what are the chances of that happening eh ..oh Eriksen..being an atheist I’m not sure about Christian..I’d love loads but if it sell before you buy it will be whats left…and as we all know there will be some big hitters in the EPL this summer.
They are around but we are not going to be playing that style, there is no free role as such with Conte.
Areed Paul , but how many genuine no 10’s exist anymore ?The modern day coach , with the squad systems in place , seem reluctant to rely on the skills of one man , for whom he would need cover for anyway .
I would have Christian return because romatically that’s the footballing style I love , but realise he is a fading force and that its sometimes ‘different ‘ the second time -around .
How about we get a talented attacking mid and let him do his job. We been doing that for 10 years or more and still Erikssen has been the only one past and present that represents a complete creative mid. That is how we ended up with Tanguy and Locelso. They look like they could do a job.
We are not far from a highly talented squad , we know there are changes THAT MUST be made , but sheer joy of not only gaining a CL spot , but depriving the old enemy is fabulous .
And I do believe that “Spursy ” tag will have to be reviewed /replaced in favour of Arselly [ or something cleverer ! ]
I really believe our future is bright ====== C O Y S !!!!!!!!!1
Yes, excellent pedigree and he has that classic hallmark of a good player, composure and time on the ball. Although I must confess a tad heart-stopping at times, as he pirouettes out of two tackles on the edge of his own box!
Reckon Kulu. Has lost over a stone since joining Spurs and is playing much better for it. Bentancour was mustard yesterday …perhaps he could be an attacking midfielder if Skipp ever returns ..
Yes, Uruguayan, but was at Bocca from age 12 for 8 years and then moved to Juventus. Good pedigree.
The lad’s Uruguayan H! Otherwise couldn’t agree with you more, a great game from Benty and a welcome return to impactful form by Kulu also.
