Re: Official - Paulinho
This guy is crap.
He is utterly ****.
He makes me more angry than any other Spurs player in recent memory.
He is literally useless.
He has shown some good technique, but even then he often gives the ball away or fails to control balls, his first touch for a Brazilian international can be pretty ropey, but even then I can give him the benefit of the doubt in terms of his actual skill level and ability.
But that is only part of being a top professional and a winner. This guy will never be that. We've got to seriously start looking at the background and personality of the players we sign as well as just their reputation and ability, especially when buying from abroad.
This guy was always going to be a massive flop.
His first stint in Europe ended in disaster when he went crying back to Brazil and his frigging wife had to talk him out of quitting football altogether. So his Mrs has more balls than him, not a good start.
The jumping out of the wall yesterday was absolutely criminal, matched only by his Missing In Action display against a tigerish West Ham who were clearly up for the derby day - pitty you couldn't say the same about Invisiblinho.
Ade jumped out the way too, but at least he has made a massive impact on our season. Apart from a few goals, Paulinho has put in pathetic display after pathetic display, going missing, ducking out of challenges, getting barged off the ball, pulling out of 50/50s...........
If I see him in a Spurs shirt next season I will be very angry, get this guy out of our club. Its actually laughable that there is talk of Chelsea signing him, the guy is ****.
