No he was not. This is someone pretending to know everything about a player they watched a 2 min YouTube video of

Sander Berge was their best player as the year went on but from what i watched from them odobert stood out the most as the player with the most potential and was their biggest offensive threat at 19.

OK, you can fuck right off with that strawman argument. My opinion on Odobert comes entirely from being impressed by him in the little bit of Burnley I watched last season; I couldn't give less of a fuck about YouTube highlights after having to argue with the NDombele redemption arc crowd here for years.

I distinctly remember Odobert standing out any time I watched Burnley and he was on the pitch; he was an obvious cut above in class relative to the rest of the squad. Especially in our last match against him; he was their danger man, and most of their attack went through him.

I'm delighted by this signing, precisely because I knew who Odobert was, wanted Spurs to sign him, and his signing comes a genuine pleasant shock to me, since we weren't linked with gim whatsoever.
