If you listen to Peps presser yday RE Savinho, he was asked about his move to Spurs and he answered it very politically, stating it is the club who makes the final decision and that he can only give his opinion. I read that as, 'I would have sold him given the chance but the club wanted to keep him'.
Seems like he's almost being forced to play him into form since his new contract. Doesn't deserve a kick based on form or ability.
Also, he doesn't press well and he doesn't get the space to glide in the prem. You say 2/3 years, in order for him to still be here he's going to have to play. If he doesn't start scoring goals and improve every facet of his game, he won't be here next season, unless the club give him another unwarranted new contract.
If I have to watch him absolutely half arse games crying out of challenges and being scared to take his man on for 3 years i'll lose my mind.
Bobb isn't Bobb after the injury but he's got 2 things working for him.
1. his peak should he reach it again is quite good
2. his home grown status makes him a bonus
That's 2 things I don't see in Savinho..
Also he has no venom in his shots.. nor does he have the positioning for tap ins like Sterling or pace like Sane.
I would seriously hope McAidoo might be getting ahead of him behind the scenes like Nico O'Reilly did last season and was trusted down the stretch by Pep.
