Tottenham Hotspur fans have loved seeing Tanguy Ndombele looking so happy in training under Antonio Conte.
All smiles in training
Conte has only had a watching brief at Tottenham so far, but has now overseen two training sessions at Hotspur Way.
The Daily Mail suggest that they have been testing, but Spurs’ players already have been impressed by their new manager.
And Ndombele certainly seemed to be in great spirits yesterday.
He was snapped with a beaming smile on his face on more than one occasion.
And there are many Tottenham fans who feel that Ndombele could be a revelation under Conte for the rest of the season.
The turning point?
Conte actually tried to sign Ndombele at Inter Milan, according to the Athletic, which bodes well for the future.
The Italian could also be the perfect manager to get the best out of him.
Conte refuses to accept any player who doesn’t work hard enough off the ball – which is Ndombele’s major weakness.
If Conte can get Ndombele pressing with intent, then Spurs could have a huge talent on their hands, as his ability on the ball has never been in doubt.
The club’s record signing should benefit from being played in a more structured attacking system too.
There are few better midfielders at beating the press than Ndombele and with more options ahead of him his creativity could come to the fore.
