    Why the fudge we haven't signed this guy already baffles me. I've been mentioning him for 2 years now, hes right under our noses. Hes literally everything we lack but need desperately. No one man fixes us, but he would go a long way to fixing the imbalance.

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Oh I agree its not the coachs fault. He'd had enough of the sub standard slop he was being offered. I'm more saying a competent chairman would have that point looked at what was happening and addressed things. Haha yeah we are in agreement. A lot of the time we aren't a million miles away, i'm...

    I've never said we didn't play with attacking intent. I've actually complimented that factor, what i've always said is we couldn't do it well. Thats why we need to play with overly aggressive overloads, because otherwise we would not have been able to operate in those spaces. Sadly the downside...

    OMT Spurs v Athletico

    I wasn't really making a quality argument this time around. 😅 I dont think the mistakes are directly related to a lack of quality tbh, they were just brick moments. I dont really buy the coaching confidence thing either, we saw Jorgensen make the same mistake, so did Oblak who has no coaching...

    Who bloody knows? When do we ever sign players that match the profile of what is needed? It pretty much has never happened, not that we havent signed good players but have we ever looked at a gap in teh squad and purposefully gone out and addressed that issue? fudge no.

    Of course we can play though the middle and there are systems we could employ to do it. I don't know if I think it was fear of playing through the middle, but a realisation that we dont have the quality to do it well. Thats my view and where my argument comes from we can't do it well based on...

    I don't believe in overall squad quality as amounting to a great deal, you can't put a squad on the pitch but you can put an 11 and thats where the balance comes into play and I think balance is far more important. If a team is unbalanced then you need extreme qualities to compensate for that...

    People put too much weight into the emotions and make a ton of assumptions based on body language on people they don't personally know. Thats how you get these assessments about players supposedly not caring, even though clearly from the performances even under Frank we put in tons of effort, we...

    Depends on the Wolves player. I would gladly and happily take Joao Gomes. I think he would elevate our midfield considerably. Why would Wolves having some better players be shocking? Do you watch teams other than Spurs with cleans eyes? For me, I understand Frank not trying to play through the...

    Thats fair enough, i'm just a realist and managers almost never pick someone they know (or at least think) is a worse player with no upsides over their bonafide starter.

    Look at Damsgaard, there in 4th place for all competitions, for through balls. I coudn't find any historical data regarding these but last season under Frank he hit 1.90 key passes per match with a total of 62 key passes, hitting the 90%, this season under Andrews he has played 32 key passes...

    OMT Spurs v Athletico

    Belief is no replacement for quality or specifically in this match not making fudging bine headed mistakes. Athletico didn't even need to be good, because we literally just gave them free shots on goal due to 2x goal keeper brainfarts and VDV being VDV. None of that is motivation related or even...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    The chairman should not have allowed the coach to make such a decision. What a competent chairman should have done at that point is say "ok, the players we've presented to you are not up to standard, we need to go back to the drawing board and give you the type of players you need to...

    Ange also played it mostly with width, albeit with he entire pushed up and compressing the space, leaving no space for inside passes. We then either played it out wide for Johnson to aimlessly cross the ball to no one or ended up passing back to the keeper. My point is, neither fudging system...

    I don't know how much of Simons you watched before he joined us ( I had and rated him as a player) but there are a few obvious reasons if you know his game well. He mainly plays ahead of the midfield, hes a player who receives the ball deeper in the opposition half, rather than someone who...

    Thfcsteff the person you first quoted and Fernandez both showed 11 as the number of attempted through balls these season, so there is some confusion with the numbers or different sources are counting differently... But as I said a difference in numbers isn't exactly shocking when neither...

    I get that, but realistically would you pick what you consider as a poor option just to do so. Sometimes that works out for the worse. We had that very situation this week when Vicario who many have called to be dropped was so for the weaker backup option and we saw what happened there. The...

    Fernadez's numbers show no difference in through balls though. I don't whose numbers are more accurate, but watching it I don't see any difference. We weren't exactly spamming though balls under Ange, we played the same get it to the wide players have them cross it in football largely, to the...

    ENIC and Levy are one and the same. I'm finding this martyrdom the fan base is trying to erect around him fudging hilarious. The man truly is the Teflon Don.

    Levy's Plan

    Why would we better off when his leadership is what lead is to this point in the first place? You think Levy maybe putting a plaster on a gaping would and maybe surviving this season would absolve him of the terrible decisions he made to get us here?
