I have never seen a midfielder point so much at his teammates to do his closing down for him. Micah says Hi. He couldn't be arsed to say it himself.

Eastie Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) Has had a handful of good games at best , doesn’t warrant a starting place and would have no qualms should he return to Spurs this month , rather see our own young players get a chance ahead of him Edited January 7, 2018 by Eastie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 He has some talent, but not the talent required for him to play in the position he think he has a right to play in (central midfield). Also, like many young English players on relatively big contracts, he simply hasn't got the desire and motivation to improve. He isn't taking this opportunity here seriously, he's a half-arsed player for the most part. Unlikely to have a prolonged career in the top flight. He'll be at most at this level by the time he's 25. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a bit worse than others, but not massively so. The issue for me is that he has such a powerful physique that it's hard to believe he couldn't be dominating the midfield if he really pushed himself. He looked like a man amongst boys, but that's not how he plays. He's quite languid, which can be mistaken for laziness, or can veer into laziness at times.

Robbie09 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Bags of ability, terrific feet but very little desire. I’d send him back if we can and use the loan system to suit us and not the parent club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 with Tuanzebe coming in I hope we don't try and shoe horn Onomah into the advanced position he's sometimes played. That position is better left to Grealish, Hourihane or Snoddy. Onomah can compete with Whelan in (D)CM when Jedi is not fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression that he was going to play more of a defence position with Elphick perhaps departing.

villan-scott Posted January 14, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) I was surprised that Bruce brought on Bjarnason yesterday over Onomah, seems to show a lack of trust and faith in him in the deeper role. Sounds similar to the problem he’s had at Spurs. Edited January 14, 2018 by villan-scott Auto correct on Onomah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 (edited) So Spurs have a recall option and apparently Pochettino is currently mulling over that decision. Take him back IMO so O’Hare can get a chance. Edited January 20, 2018 by Kingman 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O hare has potential yes but for me hasnt shown much to suggest he is on onomah level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Of the loans we have here atm he's the only one that hasn't really nailed down a place in the starting XI. I think with Grealish, Lansbury and Jedinak all injured going into the start of the season it's been a good loan so far. He has had moments where he has looked the part. He has had some where he just doesn't look quite with it. How much of his development is being hampered by his versatility? How much is down to young players finding consistency? Either way he'd be useful to have around for the run in, not least if Grealish or Hourihane pick up an injury, but also it would be a shame to lose someone at this point who has regularly contributed to where we are. From Spurs' perspective though if he isn't getting guaranteed game time they've every right to recall him if they wish. He'd walk straight into most teams lineups in this division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't too bad when he first arrived.....seems to have lost his form and subsequently appetite, his workrate has disappeared. He reminds me a bit like Tshibola.....fine athletic specimens, perfectly built for the game.....but just no drive and determination to succeed.

I think O'hare can do the same thing Onomah did today. I feel like it is a waste to keep Onomah here if he is only going to be getting 5-10 minutes a match.

Guest av1 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I know the kid isn't a left winger, but at least run about a bit ffs. A nothing player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I thought he did ok when he came on to be honest. Barnsley were looking dangerous until he came on and it just settled us down I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
