BBC pundit baffled by £15m Tottenham player’s lack of work-rate
BBC pundit Charlie Adam has cri🧜ticised Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Pierre-Emile Hꦰojbjerg for his work-rate.
Hojbjerg has ♋struggled to produce his early-season form over the past few weeks and has come under some criticism as a result.
The 🥃27-year-old was a standout performer for Spurs during the𓃲 campaign’s early stages. But it’s fair to say that his form has dipped since Rodrigo Bentancur picked up a season-ending injury.
Spurs lack creative players in the middle of the park and without💟 Bentancur, they have two similar players in Hojbjerg aꦿnd Skipp.
And Charlie Adam feels the Danish midfielder just ‘walks around’ and does what he wants on the pitch for Tottenham.
Adam baffled by Hojbjerg’s work-rate
Adam ap♓peared BBC Radio 5 Live’s and was speaking about ‘midfield enforcers’.
The former Liverpool midfiꦍelder believes all the top clubs have a dominant holding mi🌺dfielder, including Rodri at Manchester City and Casemiro at United.
Butꦦ he admitt꧒ed that he doesn’t think Hojbjerg is that type of player for Tottenham.
“Tottenham I’m not too sꦕure about,” Adam said. “He does what he wants to do [Hojbjerg]. He just walks around.”
Hojbjerg has proven to be a reliable performer for Spursꩲ eveꦉr since he made the switch from Southampton.
But there are doubts over his ability to play at the ver♛y top level. Man෴y expected the Dane to lose his place in the side to Yves Bissouma this season.
Yet, with Bissouma underper✨form🔥ing in his debut campaign, Hojbjerg has once again been a mainstay.
There’s no denying that Hojbjerg is a capable midfielder. But if Spurs really want to push on, he doesn’t seem to be of the 🅘required level to be a starter every week.
