But uh The question, the question everyone's asking. Really, well, not everybody, but uh the big question is eighty million for Kruppy. Right. Is it ambitious? Or is it foolish, right?
How do Krouppi’s stats compare to other Premier League forwards?
And we're not talking about we're not talking about the money here. Um, we're just talking about, you know, how do we have That much to spend. If we spend that eighty million, have we got to wait for other sales before we can get going? Is he the right profile? of uh player. that that we should be looking at. I mean, look, he's a center forward, he's an inside forward. Excellent movement. Quick acceleration. Intelligent parsing. Strong penalty bar like the fox in the box. Great shot on him. Premier League experience. But eighty million, eighty million pounds. I mean, it's it's a lot for this kid. It really is. But um
Let's have a look at some of the the stats here. Um so if you look here.
On his stats. We're looking at the MP's non penalty goals. He's like not point five four. per 90 minutes is in the top 100 percentile. I mean that's like unbelievable. Goals including penalties again, 0.64 in the top 100 percentile. Non penalty goals per shot. Again, these I mean these are his top twelve uh metrics, but still look at look at them. The conversion, twenty two percent of his shots are converted.
Is Krouppi better suited as a centre‑forward or an attacking midfielder?
A hundred percent percentile. Clearances and non XPG goals, non penalty goals, XG, naught point three oh ninety three percentile. Um, hard to beat, non-penalty shouts, all of these numbers, all of these numbers are pretty good. Um, and as we see here, we look at where he's played. Now, if we're s if we're signing in for a center forward to play the number nine, if you look at the stats here. He's only played nine games. um as a as a center forward, right? Six of them starts. Majority of the games, he's played as an attacking midfielder. Uh twenty-three games, fifteen stars, eight as a sub. So, I mean, are we saying that um if we're gonna sign him As I As a striker. That he's gonna be is he gonna be Good enough.
for that position because his his top stats all register as a centre midfielder. Listen, he's developing he's he's got so many strings to his bow. He's he's an absolute fantastic talent. I'm just asking the question whether or not Um he he should be eighty, eighty five million, or that should be the player we we look at as our striker. Now, if you're saying that you think he's going to be signed as an attacking midfielder, who's he replacing? Who's he gonna play instead of when he's paying eighty five million pounds he's gonna be playing every week? Do you think he's gonna play out wide? I can't see that happening. But I want you to drop a comment in the chat. And uh let me know exactly what you think. about Krupi Junior.
We all know that he's a really good striker. Sorry, a really good player.
Should Spurs spend £80 million now or wait for other sales?
Um, we also know he's got a great shot on him. And uh he scored the most goals for a teenager in the Premier League. His age Uh he's got so much going for it, which hence the reason of his high price.
