** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton & Hove Albion **

not being able to make a 5 yard pass is nothing to do with the formation, its because they are not working hard enough

The next time their play breaks down on the edge of our box, look at the positions of the players. THAT is the formation.

There’s no way to play out, hence passes are forced and possession is given straight back. It’s happened in literally every match this season. And it’s quite simply because we have 3 at the back vs 1 striker, they have 3 in midfield totally dominating our 2, which means Son and Kulusevski drop in to make it a very narrow 4 in midfield, and suddenly we have no way to play the ball out.

Add to that their very high press and it’s just a recipe for disaster.
