I just had to watch 2 ads, just to watch a sweaty bloke in a shit shirt say a couple of obvious sentences, while sat in a room.
I was hoping for some footage and smart, tactical analysis. Should have known better than to hope for other than clickbait from Sky.

Yep, I clicked the link before I read your comment, more fool me, but I was the same, watched 2 ads, one of which was Henry driving his pimp buggy before seeing the sweaty dude so X'd off ?

I actually watched 2 more ads after the video, thinking that there must be more to it, a second part maybe but no, I just watched more ad for no reason. :facepalm:

Agree. Was fairly unhelpful. YouTube seems to have better videos.

Just a cautionary tale from an Algerian buddy of mine (Marseille fan) - Ndombele is a quality player but we shouldn't expect him to just instantaneously "become" Mousa Dembélé+. He says that Ndombele certainly has the talent and to adapt to the Premier League but, as with all players moving countries and leagues it may take him a little while to slot into the same wavelength as his team mates (like it has for Naby Keita) . He plays the ball along the ground into runners and this may suit the likes of Moura and Son well but will have to adapt to the well drilled defences of the likes of Brighton et al.

Also, YouTube is a slightly flattering reflection of his general play, which whilst very good isn't quite the "all action" montages shown, but I think most people here realise that.

I didn't get any ads (I'm not sure if that is a good or a bad thing) but did find myself wondering whether he'd just had a shower with his shirt on.

Watching all the ads to see a bloke say some obvious stuff, is far preferable to the sad ***** that keep spamming the Ndombele transfer thread with their shit song ideas.

The Mirror is saying £55m upfront plus £9m add-ons. Personal terms yet to be agreed
The mirror never says nice things about us.

Tottenham have agreed on a £64million transfer fee to sign Tanguy Ndombele from Lyon, according to reports from France.
Spurs have been hot on the heels of the midfielder all summer and have finally quoted a figure Lyon are prepared to accept.
The fee includes a guaranteed £55million paid up front with an addition £9million set to be paid in bonuses.
The bonuses are reportedly realistic and will be triggered should Spurs continue to qualify for the Champions League in the next few seasons.
Tottenham is yet to finalise personal terms with Ndombele, meaning the transfer is still a little way off being completed.
