If that's the case he should study Kulusevski. Not pacy by any standards, but super intelligent use of change of speed, speeding up and slowing down to keep the defender guessing.

7 goals, 6 in the league, 1 in the cup and atleast 4 assists, not totally sure how many he's set up.

Devine was on the bench for Port Vale against Pompey and has come on in the 33rd minute.

Mikey Moore could be an even better prospect than Jamie Donley. Both exceptional but Moore just seems to have something really special about him.

Some thoughts on Alfie Devine from a PV message board:
Devine ok at premier league football reserves or whatever its called will find league 1 players to be hardened more than Premier league kids, for all the talent they have they will find out the lower leagues of English football are very uncompromising .
Devine has too many expectations placed on him, because he’s at Spurs and was invited to train with the full England team. I admit he’s not probably been playing at his best but is that down to him or his he following instructions. He’ll be gone in January if we continue to knock the lad, he’s obviously got talent.
Devine can't start for me, offers little in the way of goals, key passes or aggression in the final third.

The highlights indicate that Moore is playing up top (vs the formation posted earlier in this thread). The highlights are very impressive.

Blimey, weren't they raving about him a couple of weeks ago?
They've got to give the lad a chance because it's a big change for him and he'll take time to adapt to the team and league.
We all know he's got talent and this sort of loan can only be good for his development, even if it doesn't go particularly well - again, I'm thinking of the Kane loans and how they helped him grow and learn.

Looked like they should have scored 15. Some lovely play.

It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't blow the doors off in this loan. It's more about regular game time against grown men trying to earn a living from football. When he's in a team with other players of his skill level trying to play high level football, his quality will show out.
