at least the wand waver has earned the overrating by going into a Juve team with a new coach and outperforming every other midfielder.
It’s ridiculous that people are even comparing them
Maybe you actually need to see both players before you say comments like these?
I like McKennie but I see a limited b2b decent at best rotation player with some hustle and occasional runs into the box, dont see what has he shown to warrant for strong words like the above. Whenever he has been asked to do more then that, he has looked clumsy and not up to the task.
Ndombele can defenitely be questioned on his mentality and attitude, seems to have switch off button in certain games. And has too high salary, and defenitely flopped for Spurs tho has been good in parts.
But on purely talent, skill level as footballers, in almost every aspect and metric of a midfielder, he looks superior then Mckennie at when you seen both regularly. Ndombele can look legit top level midfielder when he is on. Level I havent seen McKennie reach, wether with us or Schalke. Please explain to me exactly what certain qualities he has shown that has convinced you to the point you typed the above.
If Ndombele is easy to acquire, I would take a chance on him and possibly be rewarded if he turns it around with a better coach/team. Because his dynamic physicality to win possession with ease, great dribbling, astute precise passing, all qualities I see as worth taking a gamble on if its doable enough cheap transfer (yes even if he has questionable attitude). On what form or shape it comes dont matter too much. Spurs have no negotiation bargain here.
