You want to win midfield back and your plan is to put Johnson on the pitch? That's going to have the opposite result. I agree we do need Kulu in midfield but we don't need Johnson ghosting on the pitch.

There's noone else, unless he moves Porro to RW and bring Reg on, can't see that happening.
 
Our midfield isn't working at all.

Press isn't working. Sarr and Bergvall not figuring out what they have to do. Sarr runs a lot most of the time, but I don't understand why he doesn't do more when Trossard is breaking.

Completely failing to build up on the right with both Dragusin and Sarr unable to be useful on the ball. Leaving Spence and Gray in really difficult situations repeatedly. And us not getting any joy out of Kulusevski.

Think Ange has to change it unless he thinks this can be sorted tactically at half time. For me Maddison on with Bergvall moving to the 8 role, that has been where he's thrived recently. More ball playing quality deep in midfield and on the right, with Maddison also able to drop deeper to help us progress the ball.

If you're moving kulu in the middle who you putting on the right if not Johnson?

It's been a dreadful half despite taking the lead.

All over the place at the back
No one putting a tackle in the middle
Solanke/Son/Kulu not holding the ball up
Passing, what passing

Feels like we’re trying to emulate Nottingham Forest’s rope-a-dope tactics despite only keeping 4 clean sheet in the PL this season plus lacking their threat from both wings.

This is quite embarrassing really.

Not just this. The entire season.

21 games into the season, on 24 points and about 14th in the table.

What has happened to us? Injuries blah blah

gonads. We are clueless.

6pointer coming at the weekend. Lose to Everton and we really are in a relegation dogfight
 
They were better than us for at least 35 mins there, if not 40. And yet we should be a goal up at HT.

And now having to put up with Keown’s ‘analysis’ at HT. Painful, frustrating and humiliating: it’s a standard Spurs NLD day so far….

Spence is doing a good job at left back, why move him?

Try and get a better balance in the team.
He has done well, but we can't hold onto the ball past our 18 yard box.

If we moved Kulusevski into cm, the other option is Johnson. Not renowned for work rate and holding the ball up
 
So it wasn't a corner, it deflects off two players to sneak in and saliba is holding grey so he can't move to the ball. Disgusting.

Kinky messed up for that goal. He knows he should have that.

Son losing it in the left trying to hold it up. porro is getting roasted.

We need to offer more going forward. More hold up play.

Id take off Porro, and Biss.
Richarlison and Reggie on.

We need better balance on the left.
