Tanguy Ndombele has silenced all of his doubters this season.The Tottenham midfielder endured a difficult debut season following his £55.45 million move from Lyon in the summer of 2019.Jose Mourinho was not impressed with the Frenchman and it appeared that the working relationship between the two men might not recover after the Spurs boss told the press: “I know adapting to the Premier League is difficult but he has had enough time and has to give us more than he is giving us.”However, Ndombele is now one of the first names on Mourinho’s teamsheet after knuckling down this term.“We are happy, apart from a couple of matches where his performances were not good. Overall there was a big evolution,” Mourinho said in December, per The Guardian. “He’s a player who is playing very well and is giving some good things to the team.”Ndombele is a classy footballer.
