Has he gone yet?

Indeed. And whenever he has gone past someone, or the pass to him has taken the defender out of the game and open space is ahead of him, instead of running into the open space he's more preoccupied with looking over his shoulder, reaching out for the handoff and sticking his arse out. If he ran rather than tried to shield the ball when the opponent was still 5 yards away then who knows what would happen...
Obviously has absolutely no confidence in being able to out run anybody, to an absurd degree.

Any player can look good on a season review, they only show the highlights.

Perisic is right footed and plays on the left wing, their plan is probably to buy both.

Considering he didn't come off the bench and Ali and Pritch did I reckon he is as good as gone.

You got some statistical evidence to back that up?

Was pretty stupid him being on the bench if that is indeed the case.
Edit: General musing

Agree, but could read anything into that. Maybe nobody else was fit enough, maybe the price hasn't been agreed yet and we want to show he still has a place here, maybe we want to cover our bases In case it doesn't go through and he ends up feeling completely ostracised after being left out, or maybe Poch just doesn't know how to pick a bench.
Why? He is still our player and he might have been needed if we were hit by injuries etc.

Perisic is two footed, thankfully it looks like Lamela was the back up plan for them.

You only have 3 subs regardless of injuries, so if he was going to come on, he would have come on.

we used 3 subs, what difference would have an injury have made to him coming on or not?

Why thankfully? It's pretty clear he's got no future at Spurs and we need to find him a new home. He's like a little show pony that the owner's got bored of and wants someone else to take him off their hands and give him a little field to run around in like a headless chicken in and live out the rest of his career in peace.
I was just making up a hypothetical situation. Lamela might have been needed, that is why he was named on the bench. I don't see how it's "stupid" to name a player on the bench and not use him even if he might be leaving the squad.

My point was also hypothetical as i am not Poch and have no idea if he would play or not anyway

Thankfully because he can contribute, he's a solution and not a problem.

Yes I think he might have played his last game for Spurs.
