    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa ***

    We get pressed in defence AND our midfield get smothered (often because they are outnumbered) . Consequently the only option is to go long, which is when we lose possession.in the first half against Brentford, the balls were often under hit and too short ( especially to Kulu) thus enabling...

    That's just not right. We get pressed to death in the first half so our defenders hoof it long. That is when Son and Kane lose possession.

    How can holding the ball up well be a quick fix? It isn't the strength of Son or Kane.

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa ***

    We hardly create anything in first halves. Defense can't withstand the press, we are outnumbered in midfield and Kane and Son can't hold the ball up. Other than that, it's hunky dory.

    And how has that gone so far this season? Conceded first in 9 ( yes nine) cosective games! We really need to sort out our first half performances as our top priority.

    From the bench for me. We should start 3 in midfield. Add Bentancur to Biss and PEH and we should be really solid defensively. If Conte doesn't fancy a three, then I would start Gil and save Son for when the game opens up. I think he would be dynamite from the bench (see Leicester for example)

    ** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford **

    The main problem it seems to me is that we don't have a target man who can hold the ball up. Toney did this excellently for Brentford but Kane hardly ever wins a header against centre halves in build up play so we can't play long as it just makes us give up possession. And when Kane does manage...

    FT 2-2. Dire first half. Better second half. Overall deserved to win. Dier and Tanganga dire. Son non existent. Conte too late with obvious subs again.

    Son has been poor again. Don’t know why Gil wasn’t given 15 minutes

    Kane hits the bar. Unlucky.

    Could have had 3 pens and a sending off. Not getting the run of the refs decisions here.

    2-2. PEH after good work from Kulu.

    1-2 Kane. Great header from a super Lenglet cross.

    0-2. Dier sliced it out for a needless corner. An easy well worked corner. Poor defending again.

    Are you talking about the coaches or the players?

    ** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford **

    How can Conte think Tanganga is ready to start but Spence isn’t even worth a place on the bench? Inexplicable.

    ** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford **

    HT 0-1. Another dire first half performance. Why can’t Conte and his coaching team get us to play from the first minute. Really puzzling.

    ** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford **

    Kane and Son just not linking up at the moment.

    ** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford **

    Every ball into Kulu has been short leaving the defender an opportunity to intercept

    We still can’t deal with a high press against us.
