Player Watch Player Watch: Ryan Sessegnon

[wrd]

I also write and edit for a living. If it's good enough for The Times, it's good enough for me.

If we're humble bragging according to the bit under my name, I'm a Well-Known Member on a spurs community website

Good move is Sessegnon ?

 

[ButchCassidy]

So what do we know about Hoffenheim, other than they play with wing backs and their manager is Uli Hoeneß’s nephew? We’ve got a hundred resident BuLi experts every time we have a new transfer link, where have they all gone?

 

[chrissivad]

Looks like they play 3 at the back, but have changed between a 3412, 343 and 3142.

He needs to play and needs consistent games, hopefully he can come out of his shell in hoffenhiem

 

[Mate]

There's a cracking player in there somewhere and I hope we get to see it when he returns. Would be a shame if he doesn't make it at Spurs given how long we pursued him for.

 

[thekneaf]

As long as he plays there this will be brilliant. Their first game after the break is Dortmund, probably too soon, but he could be lining up against Sancho and that's the kind of opposition you need to learn.

Could be a really good move for him, and the club. Just needs plenty of playing time.

 

[kieranfitchett]

good move for him, hopefully plays regularly and gains experience in a physical league

Hopefully he gets lots of playing time and can develop. Having him and Regullion as Left Back options will be outrageous if he does!

 

[Adam Zampa]

Riess Nelson got big minutes at Hoffenheim, so they do play their loanees unlike some clubs. Should be a great move

 

[mil1lion]

Hopefully he can build his confidence because that seems to be what's holding him back.

 

[Ekmek]

Hope this can turn out really well for him.

 

[carpediem991]

A certain David Alaba had a great loan out there. They certainly know how to treat talent. Hope he develops very well. Good luck!

 

[amardilo]

Hope there is no option to buy and he gets lots of game time over there.

There isn't one. It's just a simple one year loan

Looking at Hoffenehim on Transfermatkt they have one left back, who is currently injured and they typically play a back 3 with wing backs.

Robert Skov was their first choice LWB / LB last season [and thus far this season], despite being listed as a right winger on transfermarkt.

He's similar in profile to Sess actually, versatile left footed player capable of playing either as a winger or fullback. We were formally linked with him when he was at FC Copenhagen, where he had a 24 goal season in the Superliga playing on the right wing. I'd imagine [and hoping] signing Sess may push Skov back to his favored position.

 

[Strikeb4ck]

I'm not sure he will play ahead of Skov, but we shall see...
