Paul Merson has written in The Daily Star that Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombele is a baller, but the Sky Sports pundit does not think that the France international can play the final pass.
The former Arsenal star made the comments about Ndombele while analysing the problem in the Tottenham attack.
Merson has said that Tottenham midfielder Ndombele beats players, but the 24-year-old is not going to play the final killer ball.
Merson wrote in The Daily Star: “And Tanguy Ndombele is a runner. A baller. He beats players. But he’s not going to put the ball through the eye of a needle for you.”
What to do with Tanguy Ndombele?
Ndombele is not a number 10 and cannot be expected to create chances after chances for star striker Harry Kane.
The Frenchman is a dynamic midfielder who can carry the ball and make things happen from the middle of the park.
The 24-year-old is someone who can move the team forward and allow the playmaker to weave his magic.
The problem with Ndombele is that he is not very consistent.
That is something that the Frenchman and Tottenham head coach Nuno needs to work on.
Ndombele has scored five goals in 56 appearances in the Premier League for Spurs so far in his career.
