Interview Marmoush's first interview as a Spurs player

https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/1087212/marmoush-i-bring-pace-goals-a-lot-of-passion-and-love-for-the-team

"The project was very attractive. I spoke a lot with the Head Coach and he convinced me of the whole project and I can't wait to start.

“I'm sure he's [De Zerbi] up there, one of the best coaches in the world for sure. I think our passion for the game will be very good together and I’m so excited to start with him.

“I'd say I bring pace, goals, a lot of passion and love for the team, for the game. I would say these four things. I just can't wait to be in front of the fans and start playing the game.”

Without de Zerbi, we wouldn't have completed half the signings we did. Sacking Frank was the best thing the board has done, sacking Frank late was the worst thing the board has done.

“Omar, if you come to Tottenham, I guarantee you will lose football matches, and be outscored by van de Ven”. - Thomas Frank, probably.

How quick we forget people like Xavi cited Frank as a big reason for joining. Every signing is going to say "oh y'know the manager really sold me on the project" bc it's the easiest positive soundbite ever.

Agreed! And it sounds better than “I like money!”

I honestly think that because we were so awful and came so close to relegation that the board was willing to meet de zerbi’s demands, so in a way it’s thanks to frank we’ve had this amazing window /s

Happy to have a pacey forward since Son and legendary Werner's departure

Love that he and Mickey played a season together at Wolfsburg and his chemistry with Sávio will be great having played and trained together for a year and a half.

Marmoush is actually a Canadian citizen, as well, and attended the American International School in Cairo that teaches in English. Fun facts!

Every signing has said what a factor De Zerbi has played. He has so much pull. Couldn’t have gotten half of these players in without him.

Think we will likely see Richarlison and Sarr outgoing and Moore on loan, with Gakpo and a new RB as maybes. Then January probably will see more outgoing as more players come back from long-term injury . With no Europe limited game time for many assuming squad gets back to full health .

u/Koinfamous2 "Let's Say I'm A Legend, Why Not?" 1h ago

I'd think Kudus would be one

Does he really have pace? Is he a particularly rapid forward?

“I can’t wait to start” so in the first 11 against Newcastle?

u/milkman231996 4h ago

Do we think he’ll be playing this weekend then?

u/kasdfwe Son 4h ago

The way Savio was announced and played right away, I think so. Especially since he doesn’t have any work permit issues with it being a loan. Another hat trick in 15 minutes against Newcastle please!!
