Vincent Janssen

Mauricio Pochettino is looking to offload 24-year-old (25 next June) Dutch international striker Vincent Janssen.

He was at Turkish Super Lig side Fenerbahçe last season, but broke a leg early on and missed most of the season. He showed enough though for them to want to keep him, preferably on their part on loan again.

He scored 5 goals and had 4 assists in 18 appearances covering 947 minutes, the equivalent of just 10.52 full games. That's a goal every 189.4 minutes and a direct hand in a goal every 105.2 minutes.

Damien Comolli has been in London and interviewing players, including Georges-Kevin N'Koudou at the Dorchester Hotel.

Janssen is curently in Holland and was asked about his future by news outlet Nederlandse Omroep Stichting.

"I want to play again, that's important. We are going to find the best solution for me and the club (Tottenham).

"I had a fantastic year despite the injury and I have the feeling that the chapter Fenerbahçe has not yet been closed.

"That does not mean that Fenerbahçe is my only option. I am open to everything, there is nothing at the moment and it is easy to wait."

        1. Off subject...
          And so the farce continues...Boateng, being far behind the play and cannot pull the Swedish player back and so resorts to pushing him in the back...and then at half time the Irish c*** looks like he's swallowed a brick as he attempts to defend the referee's non-decision...
          Roll on tomorrow....
        2. The pundits are so ignorant generally.

          Always blaming the VAR system instead of realising that, largely, what we're seeing is simply that referees are put under pressure by it to make a decision that's consistent with the laws of the game, as opposed to one which is simply more what people have come to expect.

          Decisions, and especially the lack thereof, have been guessed at in the past and the expectation seems to be that that is the right approach. Now, with VAR, at least the referees have a chance to review the action fully and clearly and make decisions that are less dependent on expectations are more on the actual laws of the game.
        3. Unfortunately that puts it way outside the purview of most pundits, who are generally ex-players who, disgracefully enough, have largely never bothered actually to learn or understand most of the rules of the game.

          There again, how many assistant referees still award a throw-in when the ball's still over the touch-line and not fully beyond it? If the players should know better, how much more so should the referees?
