Djed Spence

[Spoonman]

He is a baller. Has immense quality and composure and he's quick too.

 

[SteveAWOL]

And to think he’s doing all this whilst playing on the wrong side of the pitch!

 

[suffolkspur]

What a player. Credit to him for turning his career around at the club and the performances he's putting in currently should make him one of the first on the team sheet.

 

[RunTMC]

And defensively he looks more solid than both Udogie and Porro

 

[GlennGoddle]

Taken a while to get in but what a player

 

[superspurs]

UNDROPPABLE

Or is it his best side? Time will tell, but imo looks about as natural a left back as a right footed player can be.

Definitely a RB who can play LB

Hopefully that continues to be the case when he’s playing 180+ minutes every week.

Until Destiny comes back? Surely Spence has made sure Udogie must work very, very hard to get his spot back.

I didn't like that wording.
But when udogie is back, Spence should be getting game time at RB and lb so all 3 fullbacks get some breaks

Hope so - I certainly see no reason ATM for Spence not to start games, but of course being able to rotate the full backs is a big bonus.

When Udogie is back spence moves to RB so Porro can get a rest.

Probably because he does see him as a RB primarily and Udogie was always his first choice when got. He could have played Spence many
times over him but he always picked Udogie.

Positively it would be great to see Spence get a chance on the right. He seems a better pure defender than Porro and his offensive output whilst not as ranging is also off top quality.

Let's see. I was excited when we signed him as I'd seen him a few times at Forest as RB and wanted him so I don't doubt that he will be good at RB especially going forward. But defensively, he might actually be better at LB because so many wingers now cut inside and they are cutting inside onto Spences stronger right side. Will have to see him play a few games at RB to see if he's as good defensively there but it's not a given....

 

[Grays_1890]

My man.......delighted for him,

Yes, when Mbeumo cut inside in the first half, Alan Sniffer Gooner Dull Leicester Monotone Tw/at Smith said "THAT'S WHAT HE DOESSSSS!!!" as his limp shaft momentarily flickered into life, only for Kinsky to gather the ball easily
