Looks like Spence career is in free fall!
Bad attitude and and he really can’t defend!
I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up in league one in a few years time.

Nottingham Forest promotion hero Djed Spence has made a mixed start to life in France.

The 22-year-old joined Rennes from Tottenham on loan until the end of the season in January. The deal does not include an option for the Ligue 1 side to buy as Spence is regarded as a player for the future.
Following his stellar campaign at the City Ground during the 2021/22 season, Spence was hopeful he would be getting regular minutes at Spurs. However, that wasn't the case as he was limited to just six appearances under Antonio Conte.
His stint in France got off to a positive start, as he impressed on his debut against Lille. However, things have since taken a sour turn in recent weeks, with Spence coming in for criticism for his defensive work in the 2-0 win over Clermont Foot last weekend.
Stade Rennais Online handed the right-back a rating of just 3/10 - the lowest of any player. The publication wrote: "The negative point of this victory is the defensive fragility of the Englishman, completely dropped to mark the whole game.
offensively more visible, his ball ascent bringing the 2-0. Technical and messing errors for the rest.

Harsh! Bright start and a low defensive rating in a 2-0 win! Are these guys ringing in radio tees after the boro games?
 
Played full game tonight. Won 1-0 but went out on pennas. Spence got booked for "roughing"

EDIT: Sorry it was 2-1 on the night as Acklam Lad pointed out. Did not watch match as I don't watch European Football. Roughing was the term used for booking on Flash Scores.

I wish my career was in this kind of free fall. I'd be set for life.

Just a major part of a promoted side. Signed by Tottenham and playing in the French top flight. I'd be gutted

Its an Ice Hockey offence - playing aggressively [without taking the gloves off]
Sounds like a wing back move.. don’t get the drama surrounding Djed. Spurs didn’t want him and Rennes fans were over the moon with him the other week
