    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Everton FC ***

    Usually I would say this match is the perfect opportunity for the team to turn things around and get back on track. Everton, a side that traditionally have rolled over for us (lads - it's Everton) and at home to boot. But after this catastrophy of an Official Weather Thread, I have lost all...

    Son Heung-Min

    This is what's great about football, a game where 22 grown men run after a pig's bladder, where the 11 men who kick it in between two posts the most times win. The rest is opinions. Lots and lots of opinions. To me, I have also seen Son talk many times, as I have seen the other players talk...

    Oliver Skipp

    Seemingly a great guy and a good asset. I don't think he's reached his full potential yet, wish him the best.

    Son Heung-Min

    By what metrics is he an "insanely" good captain? Look, I have no problems with different views, but to me a captain has to have certain elements that aren't necessarily what others look for in a captain. First of all, presence. A captain for me has to be both able and willing to be in the...

    Son Heung-Min

    I fear the captain role has had an adverse effect on him. He seems like a person that takes things personally, is overly responsible and is afraid of making mistakes and "letting the team down". Even more as a captain. Loss of pace is one thing, but after a failed attempt at passing someone, he...

    Absolutely. We miss his goals of course, but the biggest loss was one of the cleverest footballers alive.

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    I can honestly say that I never thought of Son as great captain material, and have said so on several occations. We have in more than one thread voiced our opinions on both that we need a good captain, and what we think constitutes one. He doesn't tick the boxes I feel necessary. I don't want a...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    I thought the consensus last season was that Arsenal was pretty questionable at the back. I'd say their strength is willingness to play ball, create and take chances, and don't deflate at the first sign of adversity. And they rarely look complacent. I'm not ashamed to say that bar Ødegård they...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    I don't disagree with that, but the worry is that it's a recurring theme. We have players to play like we did in the first half against almost anybody, but we don't. It takes nothing to evaporate all our confidence in a split second. I'm not comparing directly, but what I loved about Poch was...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    I don't know, it looked good in the first half. I mean, we're not talking magic here, just finding your passes, make yourself available, win the ball back, move the ball forward, create chances, let the playmakers make play. Basic football I'd say. Suddenly we stop doing it, give the game away...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    This is exactly what happened on too many occations last season. If one, or even 3 players loses it, it can be anything. But when the team collapses and suddenly struggle to do the basic things right and run into trouble time and time again, at least a portion of it has to be down to the manager...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    Maybe, but I dread we'll have the "hard cross from the wing and hope for the best"-fest from last year. And from what I remember, he's not a very good crosser. His best move is go to the byline and do an outward 45, but who's on the end of it? We don't have the players to regularly convert what...

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    If he's unwilling to change his tactics, at least I hope he's willing to change his personnel. I say start Bergvall, I don't care if he's young. He's obviously one of the best ballers we have, and he's willing to pass fast and play people through. Not dinking around like Maddison 2.0 does a bit...

    He may be our best option there, but I don't think he's a very good winger and would love for him to prove me wrong.

    OMT * Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City *

    When we fall apart, at least we fall apart as a unit. Except Bergvall. He is our new golden boy and can do no wrong. Should have won that, this Leicester side is relegation material if they don't up their game significantly. But an away point is an away point, quite a few positives from it. When...

    The realization that Son may be on his final stretch and needs to be benched ASAP if he doesn't pull himself together is beginning to sink in. He doesn't even shoot anymore, which is his best trait. He's so unbelievably cautious, and a cautious Son is a harmless Son.

    Not even a Sissoko on the bench to secure a narrow loss.

    No subs involving Bergvall are bad. He's already MotM.

    He doesn't even need to be very good (relatively speaking of course), as long as he has a presence. Not a friend, but a boss. Someone most of the players are a little afraid of.

    Nuff said. Son is by all accounts a fantastic teammate, but a leader? Doesn't seem like one to me.
