re: tOfficial Tottenham Hotspur 2019/20 Season Thread: Going to Europa!!

It's an odd situation, but I'm still okay with all of his comments. (I completely understand where you're coming from though)

His passive personality won't help whatever narrative the media stir up, but the truth is the guy still acts/plays like a professional. I think he's honestly just tired of England in general, and that it's not necessarily about money and/or Spurs. If you were bored/burnt out at your job, would you stay there? At least he's been open about the situation, plus he's always stated that if a move doesn't materialize he was fine with staying at Spurs for this year.

Assuming he doesn't act like a diva for this season, I'm actually okay with him running down his contract and then moving on for a new challenge.

I really think this will diminish in the supporters eyes all the great things he's done.

Maybe for the very short term, but I think he'll go down as one of the top Spurs players in the end (assuming this situation doesn't go to hell in a handbasket).
