Some Tottenham fans have been saying the same thing about former midfielder Nabil Bentaleb after Schalke 04 announced that he had been dropped to the club's U23 side.

The German club announced yesterday (Sunday) that the 24-year-old had been dropped to the club's U23 side until further notice for disciplinary reasons.

In a statement on the club's website, Schalke did not go into details of why he had been dropped to the U23 squad, simply describing it as a "disciplinary miscarriage".

The statement added that the door was open to a return to the professional squad, but that a time limit for this step had not been set.

This is not the first time that Bentaleb has fallen out of favour at a club, having also done so at Tottenham .

The Algerian was initially a first team regular under Mauricio Pochettino, playing alongside Ryan Mason, only to fall out of favour over concerns about his attitude and he eventually moved to his current club, first on loan, before joining permanently in 2017.

He has thrived in the Bundesliga, and he recently scored twice in the Champions League against Manchester City.

But the latest news about him has got Spurs fans talking about Bentaleb again, with some supporters saying the same thing, as can be seen below.
