    Pre Season 2024

    Agreed, just to get them some match fitness (I'm expecting/hoping Dragusin plays at least 40% of the available match-time this coming season). I think it is a good thing to have players playing slightly out of position as a learning tool for them. Different perspective and empathy for how their...

    Hearts made fewer subs than us by HT but got completely rocked that second half. I missed the first half of the match so I can't compare the two halves (aside from the scoreline which might not tell us too much) but we looked very dominant. I think we always have trouble when it comes to passing...

    Spence's through-ball was excellent. I think that's what we've been lacking: the team running at defenses all together. I think we also pressed well in the second half, but you have to "press" on offense as well. Get numbers up and in motion. The young players offered that movement.

    Archie Gray

    I think Ange will want two proper RBs but this is a great point. Did Gray actually play most games as RB last season? Either way, a whole Championship season plus play-offs missing only a tiny handful of games is incredible for such a young player. Very very happy with this signing.

    Archie Gray

    I think he's going to play some games... hopefully from the bench for a while but we have to develop our talents. Europa League will be a great place for him to showcase why we triggered his release clause.

    Cristian Romero

    The commentators watching it back in slow-motion, as if Romero was reacting while in slow-motion himself... And then you watch it in normal speed and it's a 50-50...

    Luka Vuskovic

    This is a big prospect for us. I hope he gets plenty of game time but he's also not even 18 yet. I'm assuming if he's going to a pro-league, it's to start most games.

    Radu Drăgușin

    Romero could play as a Libero in a back-3. Or just put him in DM; basically the same thing. He already pushes up and makes late runs into the box, a few of which resulted in goals. BUT the problem is, we need to rotate anyway and with 4 CBs in the squad, it's risky to play 3 CBs all at once...

    He's surprisingly tricky with the ball given how built he is. Doesn't just ram the ball through like a dump truck either, really excellent player.

    Guglielmo Vicario

    Puts his body on the line. Brave performance as usual.

    Brennan Johnson

    Came to this thread for this comment. I love to see the team spirit, which has felt in short order the past few years.

    Guglielmo Vicario

    On paper, sure. But when it actually comes down to winning games and progressing, it's a different story. Just look at our results from the last time we were in the CL. Teams we should be beating handily but end up struggling against. It's the stage, not the team.

    Guglielmo Vicario

    Plays with his brain and his heart, but maintains his calm. Seems pretty consistent, too. Almost every keeper will have at least one or two bad games a season, but I don't think Vicario has had one really bad match yet. Maybe if we're in Europe next season, he'll be tested on a different level...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Yup, that was the quote haha, shows the author probably does not follow us too closely. The way Ange speaks though, always feels like he won't be around for too long but usually says it's because it's out of his hands. Don't think that's wrong, but I'm just enjoying the time he's here.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39652644/tottenham-hotspur-ange-postecoglou-interview-angeball-impacting-premier-league There was one bit in the article where I completely disagreed with the author, but that had nothing to do with Ange (it was about some players). Some interesting quotes...

    Timo Werner

    If he got that 1v1 chance AFTER he scored his first goal, he might've had the confidence to at least do better in that situation, I'm thinking. From what Timo's saying in the post-match interviews, it seems he's trying to be very aligned with what the rest of the team wants/expects from him...

    Brennan Johnson

    I mean, Haaland missed a sitter yesterday so I get that it happens, and Haaland's chance seemed quite a bit easier than Sonny's flick to Johnson. In terms of dribbling past players, I feel like the players were really excelling at the beginning of the season, especially Bissouma, but lately we...

    Brennan Johnson

    I was a bit disappointed when he missed the chance from Son's flick, but his two assists were excellent. I actually think he's been slightly more effective than Kulu (and I like Kulu) on the right wing as Kulu is too predictable. Johnson seems to be a classic winger that doesn't always cut...

    Micky van de Ven

    Perfect CB partnership as VdV's presence allows Romero more freedom to be more aggressive in midfield or even play as a striker. :eek:

    Son Heung-Min

    Excellent pass that basically beat two-three defenders and left a wide open net for Johnson to just guide it into goal. Hope Sonny has been able to get some rest after the tournament, we need this guy in the starting line-up again.
