- How Tyrese Hall has changed Roberto De Zerbi's mind after Tottenham evolution
Tyrese Hall is one of the Tottenham Hotspur Under-21 stars Roberto De Zerbi can count on.
The 21-year-old midfielder spent last season on loan at Notts County, and while he was expected to leave after pre-season with the North London outfit, he remained with the Under-21s.

Under Wayne Burnett, the Jamaica international has shown the right attitude and performance, leading to increased involvement with the first team.
Hall is yet to be named in Spurs' Premier League squad this season, but his development under De Zerbi hasn't gone unnoticed.
The Italian manager has quality players at his disposal in the middle of the park, including Sandro Tonali, Matheus Fernandes and Conor Gallagher.
While the young midfielder's prospects of breaking into the senior team look difficult, he has shown potential to do so.

Hall and Luca Williams-Barnett are the two Under-21 stars who are being backed for opportunities with the senior team this season.
Given the North London outfit's struggles to score, the two young creative midfielders could get a chance sooner rather than later.
As for the Jamaican ace, De Zerbi has been impressed by his ability to adapt seamlessly to the senior squad's intense training sessions and his spatial awareness, according to The Standard on 15 October.
During pre-season, the Italian manager predominantly saw Hall as a number 10, but after spending more time with the youngster, his role has evolved, and there's a sense his versatility could be useful for the first team.

The news outlet reports that the young midfielder will have options to leave Spurs on loan or permanently in January, but it remains to be seen how his situation progresses in the coming months.
Why Roberto De Zerbi can't ignore Tyrese Hall any longer as striker fix worth a shot What Tottenham performances mean for Roberto De Zerbi future
De Zerbi will feel his future at Tottenham is secure for now despite failing to win a Premier League game this season.
Having started the campaign with three league wins and three draws, the pressure is certainly on the Italian manager.
However, as the Manchester United game showed, De Zerbi has a clear game plan, as seen in the 1-1 draw.

In contrast, Michael Carrick's team have looked devoid of any structure this season.
At Old Trafford, Spurs were unlucky not to take the three points after creating multiple great chances.
De Zerbi's team is missing that final bit of quality, and once they fix it, their position in the table should improve.
