Insider fires warning to ‘rubbish’ Ndombele and tells Tottenham fans to avoid ‘YouTube compilations’
Tanguy Ndombele “did nothing” as Tottenham lost to West Ham and talks of his resurgence are premature.
That is according to Spurs insider John Wenham, who regularly breaks news about the club on his Lilywhite Rose social media channels.
Ndombele, 24, started his fifth straight Premier League game for the club as Tottenham lost 1-0 to West Ham.
He was hooked with six minutes plus injury time to play after failing to lay a finger on the Hammers’ defence.
The midfielder has been praised for his last two performances and even scored his side’s first in a 3-2 win over Newcastle last week.
However, ahead of next weekend’s crunch game against Manchester United, Wenham insists any talk of a resurgence is premature.
When asked if Ndombele would be rubbing his hands after watching Man United’s defending against Liverpool, Wenham told Football Insider‘s Ben Wild, “He needed to be rubbing his hands yesterday.
“I’m sorry, that’s rubbish. You need to worry about what you didn’t create yesterday.
“This thing of players looking forward to other fixtures, they need to do it when they actually play.
“Ndombele was poor yesterday. People talk about a revitalised Ndombele but performances against 19th-placed Newcastle and a bang out of form Villa team mean nothing.
“He did nothing yesterday. Let’s see what he can do against Burnley and Manchester United before we get carried away with the YouTube compilations.”
Ndombele was dropped from Spurs’ matchday squads after trying to force his exit during the summer.
He has now made seven appearances in all competitions this season.
