In this episode of The Lab, Ben Bowman joins us to break down Tottenham’s pursuit of Mohammed Kudus. We explore what makes Kudus such a unique talent: his one-on-one ability, explosiveness, versatility, and how he compares to Kulusevski. We discuss how Kudus could slot into Thomas Frank’s system, and why he might be the perfect fit for a transitional, fluid attack. We also react to West Ham fans’ frustration, examine the potential £60–85m price tag, and touch on Spurs’ broader recruitment strategy, including the signing of Kota Takai, squad depth, and the urgent need for a defensive midfielder.
