If a player isn’t smart enough to assess that situation and see potential (like Bruno has) then we shouldn’t want them here anyway. And I didn’t say Son would leave because of lack of CL, I said Spurs may be forced to sell their better players. They are in a terrible financial situation. As far as money goes, we can go for anyone now. It’s about that player buying into the vision. City and the dippers are up there but they can’t sign every great player.

I don’t think Spurs are in a terrible financial situation? They have large debts due to the stadium, but are otherwise pretty healthy- certainly don’t need to be selling players. Wages to revenue is 57%, and they made £359.7million last season (a 9% year-on-year fall, but they will gain ground on the clubs above them next year when matchday revenue is factored in.). edit- just found this website… https://www.thstofficial.com/thst-news/analysis-of-tottenham-hotspur-financial-statements-2020-21 Edited May 9, 2022 by Manxst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 From what I've seen of him, Bissouma is the exact player we need to sign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely need an athletic DM to both protect our back line and assist/free Bruno. Longstaff / Shelvey / Big Jo aren’t the answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Just so everyone remembers, Bruno played the deep role for Lyon. I’d still like to see a specialist DM type but Bruno more often than not is the deep midfielder prior to joining us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves he was the slightly more progressive of the double pivot so could play alongside a specialist DM in that system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, the characteristics Bruno possesses with ball carrying/passing, he’d simply be wasted as a DM with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 He’s incredibly versatile and as we’ve seen for us, maybe he’s truly better further up the pitch long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Think Mendes and Caqueret played next to him in the double too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I think Bruno could play as a DM in this league but only against the weaker sides where we want to control tempo - and, really, this would be to play him as a deep lying playmaker rather than a true DM. Against good teams who often have very athletic players, it puts a lot of pressure on him that I think mitigates his best abilities in the PL. One of the best things about him is his versatility to progress play; he's a great passer with good range, yes, but he also looks to find gaps, play 1-2s, take on a man etc. Basically, he's an option as deepest mid but I don't think it's where he should be the majority of the time. I think Phillips is great foil for him, tbh, if he's still the same player he was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the little I've seen on YouTube he seems to pop up in the box an awful lot for someone listed as a DM - seems to be almost playing the role Bruno has been for us, rather than just sitting in the centre circle breaking up play and recycling possession.
