Some people wrote Porro off so early. Can't imagine us playing without him now. Makes a huge difference going forward and he's really improved his defending. His speed is so valuable in both directions.

Ange: we need to find a way of controlling his awesomeness a little. It's a long season.

Matty Wells: I'm not a miracle worker, boss. I'm just a mortal man

Agree with this. I was cerainly quick out of the blocks to berate Porro. Vast improvement under Ange.

Saying that I'm struggling to think of a single player who hasn't improved under Ange, when compared with the two dinosaurs previously installed.

I'd love to see how Lo Celso fares under Postecoglou, but he's never bloody fit.

Porro like many before him is assured for a successful career at Spurs. He's been given the universal kiss of life when Sherwood said he was shit.

Every player criticised by Sherwood is always a success.

I'm glad it's not just me - his improvement in the last few games has been incredible. Is he a confidence player? Whatever it is, he seems to be so sharp now, put in some stellar tackles, lets hope Ange has sparked something in him and he keeps it up, love it.

Sherwood was a Bentaleb fanboy. I rest my case.

To convert him from an out & out wing back into what he is now is amazing. To do it within a matter of weeks is footballing alchemy.
And to think Emerson is his backup. We are set on the RW.
I don't rate Sess and Davies is reliable but not a game-changer, so I think a new Destiny understudy is in order.
Next 2 windows, I'd go for (in this order): a) Striker; b) CB; c) No. 10 Madders backup; d) LW, Destiny backup.

...but that's just me.

I wonder how many players we have on one on one training ?

If you can turn around a players career the money savings and benefits ti the squad! I hope Donolly, Phillips and Dorrington have special programs I know it’s not as simple as that, it appear some players just need time, tweaks and help
