Moussa Sissoko joined Tottenham Hotspur from Newcastle United in the summer transfer window.
Glenn Hoddle has criticised Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Moussa Sissoko in The Daily Mail.
The Tottenham legend has not been impressed with the performance of the France international midfielder so far this season.
Sissoko joined Spurs from Championship club Newcastle United in the summer transfer window.
According to BBC Sport, the North London outfit had to pay Newcastle a transfer fee of £30 million in order to secure the services of the 27-year-old.
The former Toulouse star was far from great for the Magpies last season, but the midfielder played well for France at the 2016 European Championship in the summer.
Former Tottenham midfielder Hoddle has criticised Sissoko in The Daily Mail and has written: “And for £30million you would expect an awful lot than what Moussa Sissoko is showing at present.
“He had a fine Euros, which was something of a turn-up after his displays at Newcastle; now we’re back to the player who, though talented, underwhelmed at St James’ Park.”
| Team | Season | Passing Accuracy | Tackles Won | Interceptions Won | Ball Recovery | Touches | Shots on Target | Goal Assist | Goals | Appearances | Mins Played | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moussa Sissoko | Tottenham | 2016-2017 | 81% | 2 | 3 | 12 | 209 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 6 | 327 |
| Moussa Sissoko | Newcastle | 2015-2016 | 76% | 46 | 35 | 225 | 2,178 | 12 | 7 | 1 | 37 | 3,221 |
Sissoko is a good player and is talented, but the problem with the Frenchman is that he is not consistent.
The former Newcastle midfielder has yet to establish himself in the Spurs first team, but there is a long way to go this season.
Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League table at the moment with 21 points from 11 matches, five points behind leaders Liverpool and three behind Arsenal, who are currently fourth in the standings and occupy the final Champions League place.
