Tottenham Hotspur’s record signing Sandro Tonali has already made an impression in pre-season, and Paul Scholes believes Spurs may have landed a better midfielder than Arsenal.It has been an excellent transfer window for Tottenham so far, with the club already spending £237m on six first-team signings and at least two more additions expected before the September 1 deadline.Among those arrivals was Sandro Tonali, who joined from Newcastle United for a club-record £100m after being convinced by Roberto De Zerbi. The Italian international revealed that he had been speaking to another club before Spurs came calling, but a 10-minute conversation with De Zerbi was enough to convince him that Tottenham was the right destination.Tonali has already offered glimpses of what he can bring to North London, including a superb goal in Tottenham’s 2-1 pre-season victory over Chelsea in Australia two weeks ago.Credit: @thatfootballphotog / InstagramPaul Scholes picks Tottenham’s Sandro Tonali over Bruno GuimaraesArsenal were among the clubs interested in Tonali before Tottenham won the race for his signature, but the Gunners have since moved on and signed his Newcastle teammate Bruno Guimaraes for £75m.Former Manchester United midfielder and Premier League icon Paul Scholes has now given his verdict on which of the two London clubs secured the better midfielder.Speaking on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, Scholes said:“I think Bruno Guimaraes will make Arsenal a better football team. I don’t think the football we watched from them was great. You need midfield players to make your team play good football. Is he going to do that enough for Arsenal?“I know they won the league, but I don’t think they got the midfield right last season.“Maybe this is the answer to it, but I do think Sandro Tonali is a better player. He’s got more legs about him.”Sandro Tonali on life with a £100m price tagTonali has become just the ninth Premier League signing to cost £100m, and the price tag inevitably would bring pressure. However, the Italian insists he is not allowing the figure to change how he approaches his football.Asked by Football.London how it feels to join the £100m club, the Tottenham midfielder said: “I don’t know! It’s pre-season. If I was another player, sometimes it’s tough, sometimes the pressure is different, but you have to understand that this is football. The price is different now to 10 years ago.“I know I have a lot of pressure but I know I’m a football player, I know my responsibilities, I know this team, I know the people here.“I have to play like I’m a normal player, a normal Tottenham player, with passion, putting my energy in everyday. If you put this into the pitch every day, it’s different, it’s not £1million, £10million, or £100million. You just have to be a passionate player for this gaffer. Put everything on to the pitch.”READ MORE: Fabrizio Romano reveals Inter Milan want £4m discount on Tottenham’s Djed SpenceThe post Paul Scholes says Tottenham star is even ‘better’ than Arsenal’s Bruno Guimaraes appeared first on Spurs Web.
