Signed for Spurs.
Player I liked a lot here, has done well since but more amazingly, his injury record, 5 days missed for an illness in his whole career, and didn't miss a game in those 5 days, literally missed 5 days training. Considering how he never seems to be tired either, guy must be a robot.

I'll hold my hands up - I didn't rate him at all when he was here. But he's proved me massively wrong, which isn't hard.
All the best to him. Some career he's had since his loan to us.

Exactly the sort of player they need. A real shame he’s gone there, I think he’s probably a step above them. Just a “Duracell bunny” according to some…
In the form of his life.

He is the Molumby to the top teams. The spurs fans will love him this season.
Next season he will be part of 'the problem', as they will decry his lack of ability.
Still, his availability throughout his career, his top attitude and reliability is a huge bonus to who ever he plays for and he deserves the career he has forged.

He is much better player sat at the match than sat on the couch. The sheer amount of work he gets through is immense, which often isn't visible from the fixed camera.

Won’t often make headlines winning matches, but will be in teams winning them. With so many number tens he’s the sort of player they need.
Wasn’t really good enough for Chelsea’s aspirations IMVHO, Palace have slightly better in Wharton and Hughes, I’d say this is a good move for him.

May not get to play for the current boss at this rate. Frank is turning out to be Mason without the relegation risk.

That 2021 PL team from Jan onwards was fucking ace. Should have stayed up.
Gallagher, Periera, Maitland-Niles, Diagne, Yokuslu…

Bad move for a good honest and talented player. The least spursy player ever. Everything they they don't like. Loads of effort and a will to win at the expense of posing around looking above everything. He'll go on to better things.
