    For sure, but I think we can solve that by playing Djed on the right a bit more. Would also let us give Porro a break - guy has played by far the most minutes of our entire outfield squad these past 12 months, or so it seems.

    Richarlison

    At RC Strasbourg though. Owned by BlueCo - he's Chelsea bound, if he's any good.

    James Maddison

    Good to see him on the grass in the latest training video, though obviously he wasn't running or anything just yet. We miss him, not just on the pitch but as @Robspur12 points out, in terms of leadership as well. It's funny - I never thought I'd warm to the guy as much as I have. He seemed...

    Mohammed Kudus

    Fits with his playing style - he's openly said he likes playing on instinct, with flair. And part of that is making those sorts of instinctual decisions to showboat that sometimes backfire. It's part of the whole package with him. If he plays as well as he did against Brentford, I think I can...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Not sure I'd want him back this soon, either. He's found his groove, and is absolutely flying in the Bundesliga in a team that loves and appreciates him (and that he has a connection to, given how they supported his brother in a difficult moment). For a kid, that sort of environment is...

    Yves Bissouma

    I hope he gets some help for whatever demons he's going through. Gotta be something more going on with him given how he's behaving when he's supposed to be in his peak playing years.

    Richarlison

    Such a strange player. With his back to goal, the ball bounces off him like his feet are made of sandstone - he can play maybe 1 good pass out of every five. But he's also a truly gifted poacher, in the sense that he'll be in the right place at the right time and can usually put the ball on...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Brentford FC ***

    Preach. Though, to be fair, Spam have looked better with Nuno, so it's a real tossup.

    Destiny Udogie

    Unfortunate for the lad - just never can put a run of games together, and is now firmly in the 'injury-prone' category. :( Just makes an LB in January the priority, but we've known that for a while. Having a left-sided player down that side makes a world of difference to our buildup, though...

    Xavi Simons

    Loved that he got up again after being cleared out a few times, and just kept going. Up until now, you could visibly see his confidence ebb away when he would get dispossessed - I felt like he needed to internalize that this will happen in the Premier League, more so than in the Bundesliga...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Brentford FC ***

    Also, big props to Simons for finally learning to power through the initial moments of being dispossessed, as opposed to crumpling to the ground and looking for a free kick that usually doesn't come. It's the Premier League - physicality is higher here than anywhere else, and part of bedding...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Brentford FC ***

    Feels good to post here only after we win, for a change. ;) Can't ask for much more than that, really. The keys to our success, I thought, we threefold - two of them seemed a result of system changes, and the third was just luck. 1. We started a couple of yards higher up, in terms of...

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Everton*** - OMT

    Woah - didn't know this, and makes sense that he'd be shaken by it. Poor kid. :(

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Everton*** - OMT

    One of the great what-ifs for me is if he stayed at Everton when United came knocking. That United stint basically derailed both his career, and Everton's own progression, for a full decade. After he left, Moshiri rocked up and then spent a load of dosh on Everton managers from Martinez to...

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Everton*** - OMT

    There was one right at the end where he took on two men, got between them, got to the six-yard box and won a corner. I think even he was surprised by that, because I know half the watching audience was! It's up to him really - given our perilous HG situation, it's unlikely we'd be open to...

    Xavi Simons

    It's not rocket science what is going on with the kid (imo) - he was a bit shocked by the pace and physicality of the league, and the fact he has less time on the ball than in the Bundesliga. When combined with the fact that the majority of games so far have not been situations he thrives in...

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Everton*** - OMT

    I agree with some of that, but I'd take exception to the idea that Ange's team was significantly shorter than this one. Compare the different players in today's team against their equivalents from last season - Spence, Xavi, Kudus, Kolo Muani and Palhinha, and add Udogie, Maddison, Kulusevski...

    Kevin Danso

    Flies under the radar given he's usually only on to replace Romero, who is definitely more gifted in terms of passing, vision and overall ability. But my word, what a rock Danso is defensively - blocks every shot, is an absolute monster in the air. I instinctively feel safer when we're...

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Everton*** - OMT

    This game is the epitomization of why I found Ange's point-blank refusal to train set pieces so strange, and time has not lessened that opinion. When you can't create much in open play, you need to shut up shop and try to eke out points - especially against similar sides that will try to turn...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur FC v Aston Villa ***

    Spot on. And don't get me wrong, I don't agree with the booing - my view is, you pays your money and you takes your chances, more or less. But it's just inevitable given the changing composition of football crowds these days. There are Liverpool fans, at Anfield, who decided that three losses...
