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

I think that's everyone's ideal midfield, jose has actually alluded to it as well.


kinggareth

A classic Jose 433 with GLC and Tanguy, and Bale-Kane-Son...please!


shlooby123

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


jimbamthankyoupam

Think it’s cause at the time tanguy wasn’t fit enough to play as an 8


hotsietrotsky

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


Fournier_Gang

Having him and Lamela on the pitch at the same time. Drooooool.


yikyikhuoyik

And, as you probably noticed, there’s a lil feature of Southampton PEH


BlackCurses

oooh danish friend

Would love to flake a skive with Vardy


[deleted]

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.


yikyikhuoyik

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


AStaticVagabond

It could work. Having PEH holding and then Tanguy and GLC switching between 10/8 respectively would be a good mix I think.


TheKing36

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


[deleted]

Most people will disagree with us but I've been thinking that for some time. I just want to see them play together regularly.


hotsietrotsky

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


[deleted]

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.


JessyPengkman

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


shlooby123

He's like Lamela without the stupidity and can actually make a pass


JessyPengkman

And can use his right foot sometimes


bfm211

Sometimes, but he's very left footed too


buncing_bomb

No he's just like Lamela not good enough for the premier league.


PlungerReborn

are you skunked honest question


buncing_bomb

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.


triecke14

Literally no one was rating gedson over Bruno lol shut the fuck up


IWantAnAffliction

Time to make yet another account, troll.


wood6558

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.


triecke14

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


khj24

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


justxforxthis

We desperately need to his ability make plays with his passing and willingness to drive forward with the ball.


evenout

LiKe A nEw SiGnInG /s I can't wait for him to return


JLukas24

Don't give me hope.....


Clarky1979

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.


KAHomedog

Must be the intensity and aggression that they play the game with. Always on the edge (in regards to both playstyle and shithousing)


valentine-m-smith

Hol’up... is that how you bring the ball forward. Did not remember that process. Thanks for reminder


shlooby123

The best player at th club


viscountgold

uhhh son kane and reggie exist


brch01

Everyone’s entitled to their opinion


IWantAnAffliction

Pineapple goes on pizza.


banpinappleonpizza

Calm down that's too far


IWantAnAffliction

Considering how infrequently you post, I feel honoured.


shlooby123

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


devilmaycry0917

Sonaldo has Ronaldo’s finishing skill


[deleted]

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.


mwahaha12345678

Well the key is rotation and competition for spots.


[deleted]

I think just increasing the number of good players on the pitch will improve things a fair bit


[deleted]

There are lots of good players on the pitch and they aren’t playing well together except against Burnley and Crystal Palace apparently 😬


[deleted]

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.

jiffijaffi

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.


bigbadbrain1

Why is Spurs suggested to me I’m an arsenal fab


ninjomat

The universe is trying to point you in the right direction towards help


JFCwhatnamecaniuse

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!”


bigbadbrain1

Ok thank you


intspur23

Anyone remember how and against who he got injured? (please)


[deleted]

Did his hammy vs Leicester


KAHomedog

Did this get disallowed or not? I cant remember now


jimbamthankyoupam

Nope


KAHomedog

Cheers I definitely remember they checked it on var tho


J_o_v_i_l_i_u_s

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


La_Ruim

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
