On a brighter note

Rather than listening to you lot squabble over Kulu/Diaz.

The obligation to buy Kulusevski is if he starts 15 games for us or champions league qualification.
For £29 million, absolute steel.

Let’s enjoy the lad , he’s a superb young talent and he’s ours.
Fuck Diaz.

I've read from a number of sources that Dejan Kulusevski likes the nickname Deki, but actively dislikes being called Kulu. So why are so many people showing Deki such disrespect by continually referring to him as Kulu?
Hmmm?
Eh?
What gives?
Fuck Kulu. Fuck Diaz.
Deki, Deki, Deki. Oy Oy Oy!

What I've liked about Kulu coming in is that he has brought an element of control to our possession in attack, in as much the same way I always thought we looked better when Lamela would come on to replace Moura in games last season. Kulu/Lamela show for the ball as an option in a way that Moura hasn't quite mastered and even when he does it usually bounces off him and gives teams a chance to close him down and reset against us.

He is quite literally what we hoped Lamela would be when we bought him

Comparison is the thief of joy.

Can't we just enjoy Kulu's strengths rather than comparing him to Diaz?

Yeah its really pointless, would be like: "Why is not KDB more like Coman

Kulu will in time develop into a pure 10 role, but for now and as many other 10s have done before they start on a side because to play as a central 10 you really have to mature your game on all fronts, look at Modric, the first year he started off as a wide playmaker, Kranjcar did the same, Draxler did the same and KDB played as a wide playmaker at Wolfsburg. As you say, can we just appreciate the talent and then only time can tell.

Shits all over Son at the moment

Different type of player but Son has great end product and killer pace. He's often going to be our most advanced striker with Kane and Kulu more involved with the build up. Kulu isn't going to score the type of goals Son does like the goal at Leeds but Son isn't going to link up play like Kulu. It's a lot more like when we had Eriksen in off the wing and Son , they compliment each other well.

Others will get the (deserved) headlines and plaudits today, but he was absolutely lovely to watch yet again.
A proper intelligent and technical footballer. They can be found!

He looks so different to the version that played for Juve. This guy is so good. The level of intelligence he shows is such a breath of fresh air for our attack. Kulu is so young too so only going to get better. We have a real gem here.

the american broadcast actually said it super well about him today. They said something along the lines of "Tottenham have been searching for a 3rd partner for the Kane/Son front 3 and Lucas/Bergwijn haven't fit into that, but Kulu fits into that partnership perfectly and complements both players extremely well."
