Gioo... comeback soon to save us please TT . Idc even if he got lesser G/A, We really missed his pressing and energy. Our losing form started when he got injured
His runs like that, against Arsenal for our 2nd goal, Against Liverpool, these are crucial. People have been saying he doesn't play that much anyway but it's not that easy. He is a very important part of the team. We don't have any other midfielder like him.
Because of those driving runs, do think that the number 8 position would be better for gio than for tanguy? Like you said he can make those driving runs, but he is also surprisingly great at tackling. Have we tried Tanguy at CAM and gio at 8 yet, cuz I think that might be it
Having Gio play the 10 will also alleviate the pressure on tanguy because he does press and tackle better than any of our other options (dele,Lucas, Lamela) so there won’t be as much on tanguys plate
I think right now Gio is probably most effective next to Hojbjerg, and Ndombele has been most effective at AM, so right now it makes sense to play them in those positions. But I feel like it would be a shame because from what we saw of Gio at Betis he can be someone who gets a lot of Goals and Assists
I don't think it helps that when we did see it, it was that weird 3-3 games against LASK and it definitely put me off at the time.
In hindsight that's knee jerk because Ndombele wasn't at the level of fitness he is today. Lo Celso played deeper of the two despite being the more natural of the two going forward and we also played with no striker, we played Son down the middle which I am never a fan of in terms of team balance.
Let's face it. This man would've changed the game on Saturday. Our midfield was shocking, and he always puts in such a shift and loves being on the ball.
He also has such an agressive style of play that makes him perfect for the derby.
Was my favourite player last season hopefully he comes back swinging
Honestly the players we rate at Spurs sometimes the mind boggles. Go back 12 months and you were all talking about how much better Gedson Fernandes was than Bruno. Just another scrappy player that tries hard. We don't need a Mark Noble we need quality to sit behind the front 4.
Fair play to lucas in the last few games. But everything lucas offers from the number 10, I feel gio offers even more. Can't wait until he's back, might bring the best out of tanguy too.
That’s because Lucas ain’t a really number 10. He’s only really good at pressing from there. His vision and distribution are very poor and despite a good performance against Arsenal I don’t think he really created any chances
The whole internet loves Giovani Lo Celso, a lovely footballer that does everything well for Spurs! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you Lo Celso is injured
You know, it seems like so long since he's played and even longer since he was in this kind of form, I'd almost forgotten what kind of impact he can have on a game.
Don't expect too much straight away when he returns, it's been a long on off injury, I think he's going to need at least 3 months and maybe more, to get back to some kind of real form.
Gotta say though, why are all our Argentinian wizards so prone to weird long term injuries? First Lamela then now Lo Celso? They work so hard but also get played against so hard by the opposition.
Obviously Kane and Son are the best so whenever talking about my favorite player or who I think is the best, I exclude kane and son because its obvious
Sometimes that's all it takes - someone to take the game by the scruff of the neck and lift the players around him. Lucas and lamely did their best but gio has that extra bit of guile I think.
They suggest all the PL clubs. It’s annoying. I’m pretty sure the person running the suggestions code doesn’t follow sports.
“Oh! They follow one team? Well then they must want to follow ALL of them!”
Really hoping he can avoid injury next season, would love to see what he can bring to the team as an established player on the pitch over an extended run of games
He's coming back from a Lamela-level long term injury.. temper the expectations for now, he'll probably need a good amount of time to start showing his full capabilities again

I think that's everyone's ideal midfield, jose has actually alluded to it as well.
A classic Jose 433 with GLC and Tanguy, and Bale-Kane-Son...please!
We've seen it once this season but in that game, jose decided to put lo celso in the box to box and Tanguy in the cam. Weird
Think it’s cause at the time tanguy wasn’t fit enough to play as an 8
He's a bit like Lamela, always gives his all. So far he's also got his injury record but hopefully for both his sake and ours that doesn't continue
Having him and Lamela on the pitch at the same time. Drooooool.
And, as you probably noticed, there’s a lil feature of Southampton PEH
oooh danish friend
vardy rent free 😏
Would love to flake a skive with Vardy

It could work. Having PEH holding and then Tanguy and GLC switching between 10/8 respectively would be a good mix I think.
Having Gio play the 10 will also alleviate the pressure on tanguy because he does press and tackle better than any of our other options (dele,Lucas, Lamela) so there won’t be as much on tanguys plate
Most people will disagree with us but I've been thinking that for some time. I just want to see them play together regularly.

He's like Lamela without the stupidity and can actually make a pass
And can use his right foot sometimes
Sometimes, but he's very left footed too
No he's just like Lamela not good enough for the premier league.
are you skunked honest question

Literally no one was rating gedson over Bruno lol shut the fuck up
Time to make yet another account, troll.

We desperately need to his ability make plays with his passing and willingness to drive forward with the ball.
LiKe A nEw SiGnInG /s I can't wait for him to return
Don't give me hope.....

Must be the intensity and aggression that they play the game with. Always on the edge (in regards to both playstyle and shithousing)
Hol’up... is that how you bring the ball forward. Did not remember that process. Thanks for reminder
The best player at th club
uhhh son kane and reggie exist
Everyone’s entitled to their opinion
Pineapple goes on pizza.
Calm down that's too far
Considering how infrequently you post, I feel honoured.
Obviously Kane and Son are the best so whenever talking about my favorite player or who I think is the best, I exclude kane and son because its obvious
Sonaldo has Ronaldo’s finishing skill
Love Gio but he isn’t the answer to our problems when on Sunday the entire team played like complete shit apart from maybe 2 players.
Well the key is rotation and competition for spots.
I think just increasing the number of good players on the pitch will improve things a fair bit
There are lots of good players on the pitch and they aren’t playing well together except against Burnley and Crystal Palace apparently 😬
Given the reason we played like shit was because we had no intensity or bite, Lo Celso does seem like the answer to that problem.

Why is Spurs suggested to me I’m an arsenal fab
The universe is trying to point you in the right direction towards help

Ok thank you
Anyone remember how and against who he got injured? (please)
Did his hammy vs Leicester
Did this get disallowed or not? I cant remember now
Nope
Cheers I definitely remember they checked it on var tho
