if paulinho is better than fernandinho, then spurs have one hell of a player

They are different players. Paulinho is an attacking midfielder, more like Carzola. Fernandinho is a box to box, great dribbler(so is Paulinho to be fair), a bit faster, much stronger on the ball(not quite Yaya but very hard to push off the ball), very good tackler(Paulinho isn't). Paulinho will score more goals, particularly off corners but he doesn't give you the defensive shield or the playmaking ability that Fernandinho does.

The 3 new signings have realy fit in the team surprisingly easily. Expected to see a bit of a learning curve as they get used to each other. The last 2 games were tough to gauge with that crap pitch but the interplay has been fantastic. Yaya working hard and tracking back and combined with Fernandinho we are going to be a beast in the midfield. Navas' pace picking up lose balls and tracking back will provide good cover and he seems to be a big improvement on corners as well. Good to see Richards back to form with his pace and the pace of the new signings we will be a very pacy squad, somehting we've lacked for too long. Sure it's a friendly but I'm giddy.

I hope the rags are watching this. The best part is the players are enjoying themselves and when they play a lot better.
