He’s always going to be the same if Spurs keep treating him as they seem to be.

This line tells you everything you need to know about why they are going wrong:

“Our challenge is to get him to accept the pathway we've laid out for him, and it's our responsibility to make sure he behaves himself when he trains with the first team (with all the rules and obligations this involves).

No, it’s not the responsibility of Spurs to make sure he behaves himself, that’s him, that’s all on him. He has to grow up and take full responsibility for his actions himself or he will never learn the boundaries and rules and the self discipline that he needs to become this player that they have been building him up to be.

Spurs have done their bit by giving him the opportunity, it’s up to him though if he’s going to give it all he’s got and become the player that he could be.

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink.
