Player Watch Player Watch: Lucas Bergvall

[luRRka]

Those statistics are all well and good, but what about compared to players who didn’t feature in the match?

slightly redundant phrase, that!

Think its to specify from both teams. If you just say most tackles of any player it leaves it ambiguous whether it's any player on his team or on the pitch

 

[Aay_Jay_Dee]

Is it too much to say he is already my favourite Spurs player of all time?

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

He seems to have great football instincts.

 

[HodisGawd]

I'm expecting prime Messi.

No really, I am.

 

[FrankSpencer]

He definitely looks the part. Looking forward to seeing how he adapts to the PL.

This is SC remember - he has no time to adapt and must be world class yesterday!

 

[ItsBoris]

What are we talking here, a Modric like or more of a Maddison?

I was thinking more Bentancur

I actually think young Modric is quite a good comparison based on what I've seen

 

[BehindEnemyLines]

As long as he's not the Swedish Milenko Ačimovič!

 

[Johnny J]

Is it too much to say he is already my favourite Spurs player of all time?

I'd say that's the minimum now.

I demand a statue, outside the stadium.

I'll be shocked if it does not replace the Cockerel on the sky walk. Would be more fitting.

I was saving that for after he scores the winner in the Champions league final at the end of next season.

[AllSeeingEye]

reminds me of somebody...

 

[Ribble]

Quite a few sloppy passes at the start but he doesn't let that stop him trying stuff, good to see that lack of fear in him.

To be fair he’s playing well below a level he should be. Hopefully he doesn’t lose that lack of fear when he makes the 10 step jump up to the prem league (assuming he doesn’t get loaned out) but I won’t hold it against him if he takes a good while to find his feet.

 

[gavspur]

Someone needs to tell him how to wear that head band so that it actually keeps his hair out of his eyes.

I've mentioned before that I work for a Swedish company, and was on a call with a new colleague yesterday. Mentioned I was a Spurs fan and he said he was a Djurgårdens fan and that we were signing their best prospect he's ever seen. Couldn't speak highly enough of him and is certain he's going to go on to be an absolute superstar. BUT he also said that he doesn't think he's ready for the PL. It'll be interesting to see if he is, because I've always got the feeling from the way he has been presented by the club that he's very much coming in for the first team. But maybe we should temper our expectations a little at first.

Whatever happens with him next season though, it sounds like he has everything to be a huge player for us in the future.

Absolutely not ready to start but by looking at him and his exceptional growth I'd be genuinely surprised if he doesn't become an option off the bench in his first season with us.

He played them like he was saying: "You cannot be Sirius!"
And by the way how was that not a penalty?
