A number of Tottenham Hotspur fans have been commenting on Twitter about Spurs academy ace George Marsh, who has extended his loan with Leyton Orient until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old midfielder joined the League Two outfit in August, originally agreeing a loan deal until January, and has gone on to make 18 appearances so far (official Orient website).

Marsh’s efforts have been crucial in helping the East London club remain clear of the bottom two in their first season back in the Football League, an eight-point gap currently between themselves and 23rd-placed Stevenage.

The Tottenham youngster – described as a “tenacious, tough-tackling holding midfielder” on the official Spurs website – signed a new contract at Spurs in June last year which will take him until the summer of 2021 (Football London), showing he is highly rated within the Spurs setup.

Here is what some of the Lilywhites faithful said on social media following the club’s announcement on their channel:

Marsh made his senior debut for Tottenham during the 2018 pre-season tour of the United States before making his competitive first-team debut as a second-half substitute during the 7-0 win at Tranmere Rovers in the FA Cup a year ago.
