You are right. Everyone else is wrong. If Romero hadn't done the brave, smart thing it was nailed on that they would score and the tie was over. In fact, it should have been a straight red for denying a clear goal scoring opportunity.

He then has to do what VVD did against Son and Sissoko at Anfield. Don't commit yourself try and cut off the passing lane to the lad in the middle while ensuring the wide player cannot cut in towards goal.

Maybe Romero should have kicked him too.
Finney Is Back
Luka Modric
Yes. It is clear that he doesn’t coach a press at all.

This is the second point you're wrong on tonight. You watch any game we play. Our defensive shape is a very rigid 5-4-1. Always. That's okay but not when the opposition are plating tippy tappy keep ball and we're 1 down in the tie.
Yet we've played a very successful press on quite a few occasions this season.

First time I’ve left a game early I’m years but I couldn’t beat it beyond the 94th minute. That was utterly pathetic.
Son - has got to be removed from the side.
Kulu - is in abysmal form. Needs to be dropped.
Romero - I think he’s the most ill disciplined player I’ve ever seen playing for us. I’d happily let him sit some games out and have a think about how not to get sent off every other game.
conte - I gave up with him some time ago. To be fair, he clearly gave up on spurs months ago. His cryptic responses to contract extensions Indio are that he’s not at all invested in us, so why should he invested in him? Get rid, now. It doesn’t matter who we bring in; the football can’t possibly be worse.
We threw the FA Cup for this game. Now all we have is a failure to score against three bang average sides in a row, another wasted season and the indignity of Jason Candy crowing on talksport.

Not really. We’ve played a situational press a couple of times (mainly against Emirates Marketing Project, who overplay at the back)

I spare the players.
How can any player operate under such a listless, lifeless shambles above and around them? Where is the direction? Where is the investment (other than in the real estate and corporate areas)? IF you're committed to a Director of Football, when said-DoF is himself caught in the middle of a scandal, sorry, you need to cut the ties and get a new one. It has nothing to do with innocence or guilt and everything to do with focus, stability and reputation. My football club cannot afford to wait around and see if this man's appeal works out for him in the end, because his position is of such importance, he needs to be fully, fully stable and in place. It is madness. Conte showed at Xmas he wasn't up for long-term, and again, look, I understand absolutely the losses he has endured and health issues too, but again, we cannot afford to carry those. When you look at how many genuine generations talents we have squandered (Bale, Modric, Kane, Son) you have to start wondering where the consistent element is...it doesn't change anything. Realities remain the same. Until that changes this will be what it is. So I suppose I have to accept it to the degree that I wish I didn't...
Do he does or doesn't coach a press?
At the time, it unfortunately looked that way. But in hindsight, he might not have been the problem. I suspect it/they are still with us.

He's an absolute cnut. There are 2 things I am going to enjoy in what remains of this wretched season that is watching Chelsea get knocked out next round then them finishing mid table

Højbjerg, Kane and Porro tried as well, at least occasionally.

Luka Modric
He doesn’t…..That is why we spend vast portions of almost every game with 11 players in our own half. ‘Tottenham DNA’ according to our owner chairman.

Terry Dyson
Yup.
Frankly didn't need him to explain the dangers to me. What he fails to recognize is that whilst we have the current regime, it is highly likely we will continue not to win silverware, so for me at least, a return to someone who can get everyone in the same direction with spirit and heart would be great. FWIW I find Liew's Spurs observations a little too cute and snarky.

They won't. Well Perisic definitely won't.

Unless he tries something radical like Danjuma at left wing back, which he won't.

Cundy is a clam. Not even a bang average player and forgets he stole a wage from us for years. Winds me right up when he talks brick about us.
