Awful player. He is a huge part of the Spurs decline.

Dier and Dembele had them genuine title contenders, and Wanyama is just a brute. Big and strong, and can kick a ball hard. He is the midfield equivalent of Nathaniel Clyne; he is an athlete not a footballer.

Nowhere near good enough or even potentially good enough for a team with title ambitions. He's bang average with very little football intelligence and even less technical ability.

Dembele is the only reason Wanyama looks above average, because he's actually world class.

How Pochettino is not getting more stick for signing the likes of Sissoko and Wanyama and trying to use them in place of Dier and Dembele in midfield, is beyond me. In the last few games, Poch has put Dier back in midfield and Dembele has come back from injury, and it is no coincidence they look like a top 4 team again overnight.

We can do far better than Wanyama.
