    That defending is dodgier than a Canary Wharf lasagna. The keeper even pulled back.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Everton***

    To be fair to them, they did create the space themselves - like we did at a time. Given, it didn't always work out, but you could clearly see what we were trying to do. Brains beat pace 8 out of 10 times, and the 2 times you lose you don't look like a complete amateur. We also had players who...

    Well, a perfect type of "band" for such a situation :sweatsmile:

    Fair enough, and I was referring more to his ability to pick a pass than being an overall good passer. Though we can agree that he's currently a horrible passer.

    When he arrived he was an extremely highly rated youngster, and could pick a pass almost in an Ødegård-fashion. He had great awareness of what happened on the pitch (for his age). Now he struggles with the simplest of passes and plays mostly with his head down, it's almost like he's been...

    What has happened to him? He was so promising, now he barely looks like a footballer. Goes for the rest of them as well, there is absolutely no reason why this group of talented players should be so poor.

    We're currently 17th. Seems familiar.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Everton***

    Too bad it's wasted. We can't do byline and cross, we don't have players fighting for positions and making space for themselves. Most of the time they're just in the vicinity, needing the ball to hit them flat in the face, or at most a toe-in. And it has been like that for years, I simply cannot...

    Tel is one of the few players that has initiative. I just wish he was good.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Everton***

    Classic Spurs of the 20s. No initiative, no runs, no plan. Just players comfortable with passing the ball around, waiting for the opposition to die of old age. This is not about the quality of players, this setup would make Haaland look like Rasiak.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Everton***

    Could be the Frankball syndrome. His football looked great, until the players decided they couldn't be bothered anymore. Actually, so did Angeball. But the main problem as I see it and has been for some time, is a lack of any obvious plan. It seems so purposeless and ineffective, even if it's...

    De Zerbi may have been the man to save us, but I don't think he's the man to bring us upwards and onwards. It may be better than (late) Frankball, but so is eating your own hand.

    Fair enough and I get it, but even if we took a good sniff at the dirty underwear of relegation back in the early 2000s, we still weren't as bad and/or disorganized as now.

    yeah ok, so would I haha. But that's me as in ME, a fat middle aged man, not me as a professional football player pushing 30 with a limited career span. And this was after he got the Moura treatment - winning them the UCL final and back to the bench you go, son.
