    Dejan Kulusevski

    you may not have seen this said he should be on the field by November and then recently had to have another surgery no videos of him strength training his legs or kicking a ball so far. last match was May 2025. at this rate maddison will be featuring in a match sooner, a testament to...

    Dejan Kulusevski

    his type of surgery - unlike keyhole for ACLs - probably requires a tourniquet around his thigh as a preventative measure (just in case they sever a major blood vessel). this has the effect of disabling the finer ends of the nervous system in the leg. My post-op physio mentioned up to 30-40%...

    +++ OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Sunderland 12th April 2026 +++

    3 at the back can mean 1 at the back and 2 as DMs - from what i see dezerbiball is fluid and prioritizes many triangle formations to support link up play the one thing i am sure we sill see is an improvement in transition into attack, because he pays special attention to body shape and facing a...

    i rate his brother. would be a good buy if cheap and for an old head in defence.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    i was thinking about this, seeing how DZ is already slightly agitated in his first couple of training sessions. above all, i don't think he is asking for too much - play faster, run into receiving positions, be a step/pass faster than the opposition due to available third players. i mean this...

    Not that I'm bitter...

    never a penalty that's why you need to be top 4 consistently once the media gets fully invested in you - all things real and unreal will go in your way

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    He looks a bit frustrated calling that out. Both imply players need to be brave (to take one...two ...three touches) and run to make himself available for the pass. It's great because we are severely lacking in those areas but weird at the same time because they are very basic game behaviour...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    i like dzb's style of football. fundamentally it involves starting with more players in our own half, more running to create options around the ball, passing to the playmaker facing the direction of attack, and attacking fast. also lots of triangles and push and run in attack as the play...

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    no trigger but a reversion to the mean. that poch era was a fortunate black swan event, where we amassed talents that worked. pre- and post- was pretty much the same bargain basement, over the hill and speculative talents (especially from demoted clubs).

    i think the best sporting events - across all sports - should be devoid of any political agenda. sure cheating to win has to be frowned upon - because that's fundamental to competition. as greenwood has not been convicted, I have not born any ill will towards him. i won't want him to come...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    De zerbi should have been the one after Postecoglu. Lange admitted they failed to get him then. He is hot headed and demanding, just what we need to whack the players into a team. Quite sure ee zerbi got all he wanted in the 5 year deal, good for him...and an end to player power in the...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Body language on the pitch, lack of playing for each other...though that could have been because of the relationship with TF. That said I'm happy we got a hot head coach like de zerbi in to whack the players into a team. Given our position, I am sure owners and management gave in to all of de...

    I hope you are right. I don't think a patella injury is simple. Lots of advancements on ligament treatments, but haven't seen much innovation in treatmentw on the surface of bone joints. Imo Top 4 is possible in 2-3 years and I'm guessing de zerbi wants to win something in years 4/5.

    Odobert isn't good enough imo. Best coming off the bench and gets rattled too easily. Johnson has proven quality and stats , even before joining us.
