It's also taking risks in the head... Moving in anticipation of the play but with little downside.

Some deserved recognition.

Thought he was below his best yesterday, but he never tried to hide and was always on the move. Top player for sure.

a pretty thorough review of kulu's "low volume high efficiency" impact here: https://analyticsfc.co.uk/blog/2022...ach-to-high-value-low-volume-chance-creation/
TLDR:
LOL. Another Kulu fan I suppose.
TLDR:
Conclusion
Dejan Kulusevski is a silent assassin in the modern game. He doesn’t have the goal-threat of a Son, explosivity of a Hazard, or the in-to-out movement of a Salah. He doesn’t dribble and drive at defenders incessantly. But what he does do is lull defenders into a false sense of security, receiving in the wide space and dragging them into the ‘Decoy Zone’, before going in for the kill.
He moves from low threat zones to the golden zone of chance creation in one go, like a knight jumping from H5 to G7 and putting the King in check. And not only does he convert a small number of dribbles into a 99th percentile for assists, he also opens a multitude of valuable avenues downstream for teammates too.
Kulusevski’s individual actions, on a microscopic level, create macroscopic net positives for Spurs and their systematic play.

Yep
We also need a genuine back up or alternative to him

If he doesn’t play that guy wouldn’t get a sniff.

Worst case scenario he should be starting on Saturday at right wingback

Hmmm. I really hope we're not trying to pull what Atletico are doing with Griezmann. Kulu's been pretty much on fire since his first game.
We want to buy him for that price. We're just not in a rush. Atleti can't afford griezman at that price hence the 62 min sub.

We’re just managing the money

Also means we have him for longer.
A contract will have been agreed with him, waiting till the end of the 18 month loan period means we have him for a greater length of time

So he has a tight hamstring and may miss the NLD.
There had to be at least one casualty from the break I suppose.

Would had been lowest down on my pick of players to miss the game.

What a ridiculous thing to day. Let me tell you, Juventus would love us not to buy Kulu, because they would be able to sell him for £70m in the summer. Heck, if money was the most important thing then we could buy him for £35m and flip him for £70m. Either way it is a joke to draw parallels with the Griezmann situation.
FatBloke
Niko Kranjcar
Overreacting much?
But yes, as others have pointed out, it's not the same as £35m for Kulu is a bargain.
I especially like the idea @JerusalemMan posted, that waiting 'til the end of the loan period effectively gives us a longer contract.

i would strengthen the midfield especially against a team like arsenal and considered kulu not starting, but certainly wanted him sometime in the game as he is a proven threat and gamechanger.
