Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly named Tottenham midfielder Fernandes the toughest Premier League opponent he has faced, citing their battles when Fernandes played for West Ham. He made the choice on the Men in Blazers podcast.
The article says Fernandes joined Tottenham for £85 million after suffering relegations with Southampton and West Ham. In a recent 3-2 loss to Aston Villa, manager Roberto De Zerbi substituted him at half-time, saying he expected more while stressing it was not a personal attack. Lewis-Skelly also praised Bruno Guimaraes as someone he hoped to learn from.
