Tanguy Ndombele

We know he has the best skills of all the Prem midfielders.
We know he has the worst stamina of all the Prem midfielders.
I don’t think he has the worst stamina
He just doesnt realise yet how hard he has to work
Stamina is fitness but you need the mental side
I ran the NY Marathon whilst being over weight and with a hangover (yes I wasn’t quick), but I did it because mentally I was strong enough
Now if a lump like me can do that, there is no reason why Tubby can’t get running like a man getting is £200k for doing so

Smallest set of balls of all footballers. Tiny. Tungsten-free. Terror stricken.

Parked halfway to his tiny tinfoil heart.

He can whatever-is-French-for-fcuk-off.
 
You're such a negative treasure cave! "Falls over"... Yeah, right. Getting both your legs kicked off the ground is falling over. We desperately need his skills. We've been crying out for some creativity. He is the one that can deliver it. Hopefully, with us signing a proper DM, he can be more free to do his business further forward.

What we **need** are players who leave everything on the pitch, who run hard, tackle harder, and are willing to die to get three points.

We've had enough tubby Fancy Dans in our history - the types who are all skills, no grit, all foreplay and no penetration.

Not willing to go back to being a club of lazy wasters who think playing pretty is more important than winning games. Poch rid us of that mentality, and hopefully it never comes back.

And either this bloke shapes up sharpish, or I'd happily throw him at whichever club would like a skillful prima-donna with the fitness of an anemic, asthmatic slug with heart trouble. Get in someone who will run the hard yards - that would suit me fine.

All up to him. Shape up, or ship out. But his undoubted skill alone is far, far, far from enough to keep him here.
 
His ceiling is so incredibly high I'd give him another season to see if he's able to get his brick together. Motivational coaches, psycologists, personal trainers, nutritionists - the club should throw everything at him to try to get his full potential out. Unless they already did and have given up, of course.

Of course they already have. He's been here a year.

If someone wants to give us £45m or more he goes.

Rolling the dice is sticking with him, not him leaving.
 
Oh, and for every skills compilation of his, there's an inconvenient fact, like that he was outrun by our motherf*cking goalkeeper against Burnley. Hugo ran more in the first half of that game than Tanguy did.

That's his issue - the most terrible meteorology this club has seen in close to half a decade, and it's not even close.

Tell me that isn't true...
 
But it equally shows why a top manager would want to try and turn him around because Jesus, imagine if you added some hard yards in there too!!!!! He'd be incredible!

I don’t know if I agree. Based on what? 26 passes against Burnley (from memory we lost 0-1 but i could be wrong) means nothing. As does just running for the sake of it. We've all seen how our central midfielders clock up countless passes going back to Toby across to Aurier, back to Toby back to CM. Those passes show me nothing. He even looks lazy when he passes. Which brings me onto another issue i have with our team these days. Poch said he knew from our intensity in the first minute of games whether we we would win. I wish we’d move the ball with a bit more purpose when we’re faffing around with it in our half. Crisp, accurate, good movement, why are we doing that?

MOTD highlighted some of what he did (or didn't do), and his lack of movement and seeming willingness to show for the ball was shocking. I'm hopeful he can turn it around, as there is a player in there, submerged in the burger fat and pie trimmings.

He's French! Probably frois gras and Camembert!

Hope that isn't perceived as racist.

No, not based on Burnley at all. Based on some of what I saw at Emirates Marketing Project earlier in the season and the first 44 mins against Bayern in the CL at home. Unfortunately he did what seems to be our favorite thing and tried to play the ball out of our own box on the stroke of HT and needed up giving it away which led to the second; I wonder if that single act undid him for a while? It was a big error; having said that, you would as a top pro need to move on.
