It was an interesting watch, the U18s GRIMS v U18s TOTs
First half we were entirely camped in their half, popping it around nicely, loads of triangles, tiring them out, getting shots away. Williams-Barnett was clearly the best player out there, better than Olusesi. Tynan Thomson also caught the eye with incredible jinky stop-start runs on the left. I actually thought Miracle Adewole was a bit disappointing on the right wing, but he went to right back and did some really good defending in the 115th minute, chapeau.
Watching Spurs start to sit back and back and suffer under the high bombs from Grimsby, it made me think of Ange. There is a reason Ange hates it when teams try to 'see the game out' like that. Spurs definitely stopped pushing forwards and started to shrink back and back until it felt inevitable Grimsby would score. I think there is a middle ground though i.e. a team should mentally continue to push forwards and keep going for it, but it doesn't mean the full backs should push alllll the way up i.e. Spurs should mentally keep pushing forwards and going for goals, but not at the expense of leaving ourselves open
