    Yang Min-Hyeok

    ESPN is really not that bad, but I use an adblocker so I don't see the true trashiness. They're not tabloid journalism and the paid content can be decent (it's bundled with my disney/hulu sub).

    Mea culpa. I can't read.

    Yang Min-Hyeok

    https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/43001113/tottenham-hotspur-new-signing-yang-min-hyeok-joins-early Just more confirmation of those reports of Yang joining up with the squad early. Apparently canNOT play before January, @Lemonade Money (fixed my post after Jordinho spotted my error).

    Brennan Johnson

    Maybe these stats are a result of Johnson having to figure out how to play with a new striker, on top of our midfield being so leaky in some matches. Ultimately, the only stat I care about is the score so it appears to me that the team collectively isn't taking all their matches seriously. Ange...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Quarterback. Kane's dream position of playing every outfield role.

    Dominic Solanke

    This is definitely true. Solanke is proactive in the press. A lot of players tend to follow other teammates in pressing, but reactive pressing is too slow. We seemed to never have faith in our pressing but that seems different with Solanke automatically executing. I wouldn't be surprised to see...

    Dejan Kulusevski

    Dejan seems to play well with Johnson when he is playing through the middle. Kulu has the option to stay central or go wider than Johnson, allowing for a cross or a cut-back into the box. I think this movement is confusing opposition defenders and pulling them out of position at times which is...

    Brennan Johnson

    This guy's on fire. I would've thought that teams would set up to prevent his angled shots, but United almost let him do it twice. So unlucky with the woodwork but I am so happy to see Johnson doing well and hopefully having fun.

    James Maddison

    A pipe dream but one I fully support! We will probably see him at Real or Bayern in a few years.

    Brennan Johnson

    I was watching that; Sonny pushed him towards the fans and Brennan wasn't having it. I do feel bad for him and you're right, some of the fans treated Royale really badly. I know I'm adding some qualifiers, but a real fan with any modicum of decency might be disappointed at worst with him, but...

    Brennan Johnson

    The finish was good. I hope he understands that no real fan is going to say anything bad about him as a person. Garbage spouted on the internet is barely worth the effort of even reading and doesn't reflect the actual opinions of fans as a whole. Since when did regular people's opinions matter...

    Brennan Johnson

    End product isn't there. Not sure if it's his decision-making or maybe the instructions he's getting are poor, but either way, whatever he's doing as a player just isn't working. I really think Odobert needs to be starting ahead of him. Also, his defensive work needs to be better. I feel like...

    Dominic Solanke

    I like the way he presses. What I don't like is how most of the other players don't press properly; it's always so slow and lethargic and hardly ever in unison. The whole point is to close down as many passing lanes as possible, or be ready to intercept them. I expect much more from players like...

    James Maddison

    I was kind of worried that our performances from pre-season would carry on into the season, and it turns out that they were indeed quite indicative. The thing about Ange is that I like him a lot, but I really ponder his selection and substitutions sometimes. He is nowhere near as ruthless as he...

    Radu Drăgușin

    I really think Gray is best suited to DM. I know he needs time to get used to the PL so I'm ok with taking things slowly, but I do really think he could be great in that role.' edit: I'm ok with experimenting with Romero in DM too, I think he'd actually do fine with the extra freedom.

    Giovani Lo Celso

    The club's finances do affect us though. Obviously, I am not advocating for all fans needing to be completely fluent in all the machinations behind the scenes, but at the most basic level, what we get in is ultimately what we can lay out. In other words, I do care about our transfer budget as...

    Brennan Johnson

    I feel like I wonder this quite often, but do our club employ some kind of sports psychologist, or have someone in the role of advising players on their mentality (besides Ange, obviously)? It seems to help most athletes who have utilized the services of a mental health professional (to use a...

    Son Heung-Min

    Each stat has to be looked at within the context that it's brought up. So maybe after half a season, if Son still has a goal-per-game, that would mean something. But yeah right now, it's pretty meaningless, especially considering the two teams we've played.

    Manor Solomon

    He should get some game time I'd imagine. Hopefully he can get through a tough season without getting injured.

    Wilson Odobert

    I'm glad Ange trusted him with a start. He seemed like a massive nuisance to Everton in that first half, so I'm pretty sure Ange felt vindicated in selecting him. I'm actually hoping he starts against Saudi Sportswashing Machine, too.
