‘What a find’: Sky Sports pundit claims Tottenham have made an amazing £15m signing
“Udogie, my God, what a surprise,” said Warnock. “I mean, the energy, it’s no surprise he came off, I was watching him and I was thinking he can’t keep making those runs, he’s playing centre forward for half the game and I think, ‘I’ll have to go back to left back’.” He added that Udogie is playing a ‘great style of football’.
Warnock thought Udogie was playing as a striker for Tottenham
While Udogie has an offensive role to play under his new boss, he still does a great job heading into his own goal.
Both Manor Solomon and Brennan Johnson were full of praise for the Italian after the Liverpool game.
Pundit Jamie Redknapp couldn’t believe how much Udogie had improved under his new manager.
Just like this whole Tottenham team right now, the true test for Udogie and the rest of his Tottenham team will come when Spurs slip up.
So far, Postecoglou’s new Tottenham team haven’t faced any criticism for their performances – and rightly so – so far.
But a former pro like Warnock will know that he and his Tottenham team-mates will face difficult times in the future.
And the true test for them will come when they slip up.

Glenn Hoddle says Ange Postecoglou got 23-year-old Spurs man’s tactics all wrong this weekend
Glenn Hoddl believes that Spurs manager Ange Postecou gave Oliver Skipp some “counterproductive instructions” when he was brought on as a substitute against Liverpool. Skipp is not known for his attacking qualities, but he does move the ball well when in possession. Hoddle was speaking on the latest edition of The Final Word, discussing Spurs’ dramatic late winner against Liverpool at the weekend.
Hoddle believes that Postecoglou would have been delighted with Spurs’ 3-0 win over a very strong Liverpool team. After Curtis Jones’ red card, it seemed to make it even more difficult to play against nine men, but Spurs still found a way to score in the 96th minute.
“Postecoglou gave Skipp some counterproductive instructions,” Hoddle said. “It wasn’t necessarily what Spurs needed, especially with Jamie Donley on the bench in exceptional form.”
