    From memory he's had several without me being able to remember specific incidents.

    Wilson Odobert

    For me that hesitancy has been decreasing over time. It may be that their left back just wasn't very good, but I think it was mainly him getting set up in decent positions - particularly in the first half. I don't remember him having to receive the ball on the half way line under pressure...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Definitely agree with conserving energy being important in this game. It's also just the "standard" strategy regardless of that under Frank. I do also think a good way of conserving energy at 2-0 up against a team with 10 men would have been to keep the ball. Pass it around, make them run...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Burnlio, Sat Jan 24th, 3pm***

    For me personally this game should be the priority, more so than both the Dortmund and Frankfurt games. On a positive note the gap up to a European place isn't impossible at this point, but we have to get wins on the board. But then also the distance down and the upcoming fixtures. Really need...

    Cristian Romero

    Absolutely. Who are the young players here you think of as having that combination of both quality/talent and mentality?

    Lucas Bergvall

    So potentially just the one game this season we got to see Bergvall in the kind of role that got him awarded our player of the season last year?

    Cristian Romero

    Fully agreed. Absolutely think that's something we've profiled for.

    Cristian Romero

    Absolutely agreed. I think "winning mentality" is attributed too much to individuals and not enough to groups. For sure some individuals have it more than others, he imo seems to have it. But creating an environment of that will also strengthen it in both people with more and less of it. We've...

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    For sure both the red card and getting the early goal were significant factors. Even though they didn't create much they did put us under pressure in the second half, had they had 11 men on the pitch it could have been a different story. But it's imo also true that the performance up until the...

    Xavi Simons

    Definitely agree. Really impressed with how he's reacted this season in really difficult circumstances. Think it's fair to say that he has at times at least not shown sufficient quality on the ball, games phases, moments. But I think confidence is a big part of that. What he is showing is that...

    Been looking forward to that all season really. He will be a bit error prone there and obviously some defensive weaknesses. But he showed last season how that role suits him much better and he tends to calm down a bit when he gets involved more and doesn't always do the high risk thing.

    Part of that is coincidence. Looking at home and away games. Villarreal was a bit of a stinker of a game that could have gone either way. We were second best against Bodø Glimt and Monaco, but got points in both. Then two rather poor teams (by this standard) in Slavia and Copenhagen.

    Obviously that helps. But look at Odobert in that first half when we managed to set him up in good positions. Bergvall with just about zero minutes in one of the deeper midfield roles before this game. Did he look like a player that can't cope with a role like that while also adding quality on...

    16 players missing was it? We play like this in the first half. Yeah, there's quality in this squad if we can use it.

    ****Tottenham Hotspur v BVB********* OMT Official

    Only took Palhinha, Bentancur, Sarr, Bissouma and Gallagher being unavailable for Bergvall to get a game in the kind of position that got him the player of the season award last year. Hopefully it won't be the last time we see him play there. Though I thought the biggest difference was just...

    Very good performance under the circumstances. And fantastic to get the win. More of this kind of performance and Frank may have a way still to turn it around, but will take more like this over time.

    Mathys Tel

    Agreed that "Frank has to pick a side to win the game", but probably in a different way to what at you mean by that. It's what Frank did with Kudus, who then got injured. It's what he did with Bentancur who then got injured. It's what he's done with Porro who then rather predictably didn't get...

    Alternatively Tel would be OK playing both games, hasn't exactly been playing that much. Guess it partly depends on priorities. To me the Burnley game is more important. After Burnley we have City, United, Saudi Sportswashing Machine and then Arsenal. It's by far the most "winnable" game in the league coming up...

    Conor Gallagher

    I agree. How big of a difference can he be? An issue here is shouldn't we try to spend our money on players who can make the biggest difference? Another issue is that we now have a lot of players who are arguably best suited to a "number 8" role. Gallagher, Bentancur, Bergvall, Gray, Sarr...
