    Rodrigo Bentancur

    Seems to me that the two deep midfielders are playing to instructions of being very risk averse. Bentancur is capable of doing more, but with him it comes with significant risk as he tends to be unaware of what's going on around him. But if Frank saw their sideways safe passing as a...

    Mohammed Kudus

    I shudder at the thought of playing without Kudus the way we're currently playing. Fully agreed that we need more strings to our bow. With and without Kudus we're too predictable. Credit to Kudus for being this good despite us being this predictable, but just imagine what he could do if we could...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Definitely not headloss time. But said in the OMT this result has been coming. Our results have been better than our underlying numbers and we can't just keep scraping wins. We were a bit unlucky against Villa, but so far this season we're still on the lucky side of things imo. Frank needs to...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Aston Villa ***

    Result like this has been coming. We've scrapped some results from close games and it was always going to happen the other way too. Thought we were somewhat better than them overall. But again very reliant on set pieces and turnovers to create chances. I get starting Palhinha and Bentancur in a...

    American politics

    Not quite. Yet at least would be my opinion. Not sure elections have been "fair" in quite a while given gerymandering and voting suppression. The absolute insanity that is the modern media ecosystem doesn't help either. The need for an educated and informed population to withstand a democracy...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Aston Villa ***

    I guess too he won't start and will get the chance to build his match fitness over a bit of time. But yeah, would definitely be good to see him integrated and playing well.

    Yang Min-Hyeok

    You're all comparing him to Rasiak in your minds, but don't want to make that comparison explicitly right? Good to see him settle in, get game time and perform. Probably some time needed before he could be ready for our first team, but seems to have real talent.

    Mikey Moore

    Yeah, impossible to actually know how a club will do and how they will use a loan player. But even more than that it's been only a couple of months, and these loans imo are a about a lot of things beside just starting games regularly. I think this is the kind of adversity that could be good for...

    What are you basing that opinion on?

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Aston Villa ***

    I could see it being Tel. Particularly as Tel can't play in the CL mid week. Just think Frank will want to get Richarlison going again. And I think the main reasons why Richarlison hasn't been tearing it up (lack of service) will impact Tel similarly. And I think we may get into some good...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Aston Villa ***

    Majority of the team picks itself unless there are some knocks or other problems with players returning from the international break. For me I'd like to see the Kudus, Simons, Odobert trio again behind the striker (presumably Richarlison). Need that creativity across the pitch.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Thought there were improvements. But difficult to know if that was specific to that game or something that will apply to more games. Quite liked the trio of Kudus, Simons and Odobert. Gave us multiple ways to progress the ball, multiple threats. But as we've become accustomed to the deep two...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Yeah, tougher period coming up. In some ways that could suit us, think we're still better set up to play against teams that aren't going to have a primarily defensive focus. Think I agree on what you think of as doing well over this period. But also want to see some progress in how we play...

    Wilson Odobert

    Hope to see him start more games in the coming weeks with Udogie behind him and Simons more centrally. Seems to suit him well.

    Mohammed Kudus

    Reply to both: I'm in agreement. I think in the context of what I quoted that kind of makes sense, no?

    Fabio Paratici - Also Sporting Director

    If Paratici and Lange can work well together and their roles are clearly defined and they're both happy with that I think this can work well. But part of me thinks this is going to be a somewhat temporary thing, with one of them leaving at some point in the next year or so. This role would...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It worked and we've gotten into a good habit of not conceding late or turning wins into draws. The plan of defending through taking off our best technical players to put on more physical and defense first players who lack technical quality I hope is one option out of several. I'm quite glad it...

    Mohammed Kudus

    I agree his decision making lets him down at times and his end product is something of a concern. Gotten into double digits for goals and assists a couple of times in his career, but not much more and not consistently. If he could add that to his game, perhaps partly through better decision...

    Mathys Tel

    Absolutely. And in combination with slowing down before that instead of just running at full speed the entire time.

    ***Spurs vs Leeds United***, PL, 4th October 2025 at Elland Road

    Good win, performance a bit up and down. Thought our best spell was the first part of the second half and got a goal from it too. Several players putting in very good performances, and no one being disappointing imo. Still things lacking, but a tough place to go and all that. Win before an...
