David Seaman thinks £39m Tottenham man is impossible

 

David Seaman has been very impressed with Tottenham Hotspur defender Pedro Porro after his performance against Liverpool.Speaking on the Seaman Says Podcast, Seaman was reflecting on an impressive showing from the Spaniard on Saturd

Tottenham were throwing everything at Liverpool in the final minutes of Saturday’s match after Liverpool went down to nine men.It meant Jurgen Klopp’s side abandoned any attempt to try and score a winner and sat every player behind the ball.

They defended compactly, stopping Spurs from playing any passes through the middle of the pitch.

James Maddison was off the pitch at this point meaning Tottenham had lost their best player for unlocking their stubborn defence.

However, up stepped Pedro Porro with a devious low cross from the right wing in the final minut

Joel Matip had dealt with everything so well that day, but couldn’t help but leather the ball past his own goalkeeper.

Seaman has admitted that Porro was fantastic for Tottenham, particularly in attacking areas.

Speaking about the 24-year-old, Seaman said: “Yes he definitely has got that. He will track back and help his defence out, but when he’s going forward, you don’t know what he’s going to do.

His attitude has been exemplary under Postecoglou and he appears to have seen off competition from Emerson Royal this season.

Although much has been made of his match-winning cross, he was also brilliant when Spurs were defending.

One particular moment in the second half from Porro saw Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg applauding on the touchline as he thwarted a Mohamed Salah run.
