Tottenham legend Chris Waddle has seen no signs that one of Spurs’ summer signings is worth the fee that the Lilywhites paid for him.While Spurs were praised for their proactivity and ambition during the summer window, their transfer window is now being viewed in a different light after their poor start to the season.Some pundits are now accusing Tottenham of having overpaid for players who are not of the highest calibre, and questioning whether some of the new arrivals have moved the dial for the Lilywhites.Unsurprisingly, the man who is coming under the most criticism is the one the North London club broke the £100m barrier for: Sandro Tonali.Credit: @thatfootballphotog / InstagramChris Waddle says Newcastle will be delighted with Sandro Tonali’s sale to TottenhamRoberto De Zerbi has continued to back Tonali publicly, with the Spurs boss confident that the midfielder will come good.However, Chris Waddle – who played for Spurs and Newcastle – does not share the same optimism, suggesting that the Italy international has looked ‘average’ so far. He added that the Magpies will be delighted with how much they have got for the former AC Milan man.The Spurs legend told Bet Pack: “Newcastle fans will be loving it. You know what fans are like, they’ll be cheering and thinking, ‘To get a hundred million pounds for him, we’re rubbing our hands.’ Because he hasn’t done anything at Tottenham so far and he just looks like an average player there.“So I just think Newcastle now will be thinking it’s unbelievable money for all the players they’ve sold. Look at Gordon, alright, he’s in and out of the team at Barcelona, he starts some, he doesn’t start others. He’s going to get a lot of the ball and a lot of time because Barcelona dominate football matches, and he probably will have a good season.“But Tonali is at Tottenham now, and given the amount of money Newcastle got for these players, Newcastle will be quite happy, especially with the Tonali one, because he’s not started well at Tottenham.”Tonali’s struggles continue in international footballWorryingly for Spurs fans, Tonali has carried his poor form into the international break, which suggests that the midfielder is short of confidence at the moment.The Tottenham star has come under heavy criticism from the Italian media over the last few days, as many in England continue to question the logic of Spurs paying so much for him.Waddle is not the only one who believes the 26-year-old is average, with Graeme Souness recently describing Tonali as an ‘ordinary Joe’.Souness said last week: “Tonali – is he a £100 million footballer? It is not the boy’s fault. I think he is an ordinary Joe. I think he is very steady, he will give you what he has got in terms of effort, quite aggressive, good athlete, not great on the ball, not great in seeing a cute and clever pass. Again, I think he is a £100 million footballer? I describe him as a steady eddy.”READ MORE: 10 outstanding Jan Paul van Hecke stats as Tottenham star silences critics vs SerbiaThe post Chris Waddle says Tottenham have dramatically overpaid for an 'average player' appeared first on Spurs Web.
