Chris Waddle has praised Tottenham Hotspur defensive midfielder Yves Bissouma for his performance against Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United.
The former Tottenham Hotspur player has said on BBC Sport that Yves Bissouma was “different class” against Manchester United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League game on Saturday evening.
Spurs got the better of United 2-0 at home in the league today.
Pape Matar Sarr scored the first goal for Tottenham in the 49th minute.
An own goal from defender Lisandro Martinez on 83 minutes saw Tottenham wrap up the three points.
Praise for Yves Bissouma for Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United
Bissouma started the match for Tottenham in defensive midfield alongside Pape Matar Sarr.
And he was superb.
The Mali International was a force to be reckoned with in the middle of the park.
The 26-year-old held his own in midfield, drove the team in attack, joined in with attacking forays, did not let the United attacking players get much joy, and was simply unplayable at times.
It was yet another brilliant display from Bissouma, who could not get into then head coach Antonio Conte’s team last season following his transfer from Brighton and Hove Albion in the summer of 2022.
Waddle said about Bissouma: “Bissouma has been a different class today.
“Under the previous managers, none of them wanted to play him.
“Today he has shown his technical quality, lacking in the finish though.
“But last week and this week he has been outstanding.”
Tottenham have started the new Premier League season strongly, and one of the big reasons is the form and performances of Bissouma.
