“Shouldn’t play together,” “The fabulous French” – A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans can’t decide if Moussa Sissoko and Tanguy Ndombele is a good midfield partnership.
Spurs partnered their new record signing with Sissoko and Harry Winks – and for 64 minutes they struggled to break down Aston Villa.
Mauricio Pochettino introduced Christian Eriksen – and the game changed.
Tottenham, however, have tweeted a picture of Sissoko and Ndombele – suggesting they could be a good partnership.
Against Villa, though, they were slow and ponderous – and surely these two will not partner each other in many of Tottenham’s games?
Pochettino rates Winks – and he will probably use him as much as possible, so it is hard to see a French midfield partnership forming.
What is more likely is Ndombele will play alongside Winks – with Sissoko moving to the bench.
A lot of Spurs fans, however, are split on whether they want to see more of Sissoko and Ndombele together.

Many Tottenham fans think that the French partnership could work – as they rate both Ndombele and Sissoko very highly.

Others want Winks to be partnered with Ndombele – and they want Sissoko to make do with a spot on the bench.
