AVB & Spurs Tactics and Formations discussion thread

lets play with no keeper....an extra outfield player instead
 
:oops:

...Would love a tactical discussion but everyone seems to be in too jokey a mood and I have no jokes to add!

:oops:
 
-------Sweeper keeper

Walker---Kaboul---Verts----BAE

-----------Sandro
-----Rafa--------Moutinho

-Sig/Lennon---------Bale
------------Ade
 
How do you define what is 'tactical', and what isn't, though? Seems rather nebulous to me. Is a suggested line-up tactical? Then every OMT will have to be moved here. Is talking about a specific player's ability to fit into a system we play tactical? In that case, most of the ITK/transfer crap thread will have to be moved here.

Where do you draw the line? Genuinely curious.

Good question.

And you're right that there is no way to define it precisely.

But I think it's usually pretty obvious when a tactical discussion has derailed what was previously a good thread and taken it far from its original purpose.

You're doing that on purpose now.


Anyway i'm one that believes VDV can play in the centre but partnering him with Moutinho? hmmmmm no way.
 
Nah, he's no good with his left foot.

But if you had a deep lying libero playing in the conquistador mold, that would free up our wingbacks to create supply to the inside forwards and we wouldn't need a false nine. That would also cover us sufficiently to drop the defensive midfielder and line up instead with a holding quarterback and, and, and... GISM!

:lol: We've not though really been linked with any keepers to name a hyperthetical one.

Moutinho is as good defensively as Modric. Sandro in there as well. Remember he effectively carried Veloso and Meireles through the big matches at the Euros.

'Fackin' run abaht a bit' doesn't seem so bad now. :D

Yep, agree there. But moving the conversation to this thread, when, presumably, there would be several other conversations already being dumped here would create utter anarchy. Plus, the mods wouldn't know where to start. At what point in a tactics-related conversation do you draw the line and move everything to this thread? It's a difficult ask at best, mate.
