Former Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood has claimed that Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma is better than Chelsea’s summer signing Moises Caicedo.

“Outstanding. I think Postecoglou’s got to get all the credit for that because he’s all of a sudden put an arm around the boy and said fresh start. No matter what the manager previously felt of you, this is the way we’re going to play. I think it will suit your style. I want you to play with a lot of freedom, want you to drift with the ball like he does,” Sherwood told No Tippy Tappy Football.

“He goes through the holes. It’s alright passing it through the lines, this boy moves through lines and drives with it, dribbles. Sees a pass, wins the ball back, drives up and down for the team, really enjoys his play.

“Fans are loving him at the moment, whereas if you had asked them last season we’ve got to get rid of him.

“I mean he was a fantastic player at Brighton. And we talked about players who leave Brighton and go to bigger clubs and it takes some time. This boy’s alive now. Fantastic.

“For me, it’s a big statement because Caicedo’s gone for a lot of money, but I think he’s got more to his game than Caicedo.”
