He would quite literally be like a new signing!

give him some minutes to at least change the monotony of the shite we’ve watched of late and provide something different.

Will Arnaut Danjuma get more playing time with some many injuries and Lucas' suspension?

Now for sure because we don’t have many players but Danjuma deserves to play probably early but we also have a squad and some leaders of our team and if you send them out of the team then you can lose the ability to score.

We have three very good strikers and it’s not easy to change them. You have to find the right way and the right moment and also now tactically we don't have many solutions, and we don't have enough players.


Yeah, it's as if Son has been in spectacular form this season and has made it difficult to even consider benching him throughout any point in the season :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Yeah, this reads to me like " Conte didn't like the fact that Levy signed him and we decided we're not going to play him because of that "

Yeah, they decided to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds to do a couple of articles about Ramadan.

Do people read the things they type before they post?
Just saw I posted that at 2.58 this morning, I might well have read it back on numerous occasions but it still doesn’t make any sense to me now!

So he had his cameo and no comments?
He barely touched the ball. All I have to say is his pressing at the start when he came on was more intelligent than Son who really may as well not even bother it is so bad, he looked gassed after the initial effort he’d put in though, so maybe he’s lacking match fitness. I’ve followed him a bit since he was at Bournemouth as I liked the look of him and he’s a good player that we should have used more. He has top level acceleration in 1v1’s, is two footed and he’s intelligent on the ball and generally makes good decisions and is also a good finisher. If we made the effort to get him fit he would be a much better player than Lucas, no doubt in my mind

He worked hard, did a lot of covering at the back, but we were very much in defensive mode when he came on and I don't think the ball went into the top left quadrant once when he was on the pitch hence the lack of involvement.

He looked energetic. He is an asset that should be used more. Guy wants to play and should be given a chance. His latest tweet made be laugh...included a cheeky "free" icon at the end.

Feel like it would be smart to get him as many minutes as possible against Bournemouth at home next, as he’s going to probably be our main attacking impact off the bench for the foreseeable with Lucas being suspended (and useless) and Richarlison likely going to take a little while to get sharp again after another injury

Probably cos the reason we scored was his press on the keeper led to him giving the ball away

I wanted to bring that up but felt that it was a bit too 'sucking his dick' but his movement opened up the space for Kan ebut before that his pressing meant the keeper made the mistake - which eventually led to the goal.

Kulu is a good player but mixing it up doesnt hurt.

His clever run off the ball drew the Brighton centre backs away creating space for our second. Then his pressing and work rate was good. He's got pace too. Look forward to seeing more of him.

23 minutes of Premier League football prior to today.

Absolutely laughable that he wasn’t given more time on the pitch, especially given how poorly Son and Kulusevski have played overall.

Hope Conte is pleased with himself.

He's so much better than a few minutes here or there. It would be one thing if Son or Kulu were tearing it up every week, but even then you'd use options. Every big club does that.

But not us, we stick with the same tactics and personnel game after game.

He just looked like he cared and wanted to win. I've already written this season off and my only remaining hope is that Danjuma gets to start more games until the end of the season.

Also, you can see from his energy and eagerness to get forward and make things happen that the Spurs malaise hasn't spread to him yet. We should be using that energy, not leaving it on the bench. See also: Sarr.
