    The transfer thread

    Palhinha had a great game and is well regarded, I haven't paid enough attention of his use of the ball to know if he would fit in that aspect but he pure defensive play and harrying was very impressive.

    We do need better attackers, but then we also need that DM that adds security along with the back up LB and the first 11 capable AM to compete with Maddison. I don't even think that's the limit of what's needed but those would the priority positions imo.

    I did say "if you don't do anything with it" working the opposition over, moving their defence around and mentally fatiguing the opposition via intense pressure would count as doing something with the ball. You see that as being the case Vs Villa in the first half, I can't say I really agree...

    Meh that's only because they weren't on the pitch for long enough to stink it up. 😅

    Let's just say dominance of the ball is irrelevant if you don't actually do anything with it. It's just possession for possession sake.

    Dejan Kulusevski

    It's not the one footedness that gets me (many players are one footed, especially right footers), it's the decision making. Far too often he holds on to the ball for a few more seconds past when he shook off and gets tackled or his pass/shot gets blocked. I do find that incredibly infuriating...

    I wouldn't swap squads but I would swap specific players from both and that's rub of things when you're a 4th-6th performing team. Your squad and even probably first 11 won't be perfect and can be improved upon even with players from the teams directly around you. In terms of the project for me...

    A like for like left sided pacey CB doesn't exist. Our system can not solely be reliant on having the fastest player in PL in the backline. That's a system build on a foundation of sand. For the system to work it needs to be able to function with or without VDV (or similar). For me the issue...

    We got worse, much worse in the 2nd half. It's true we had chances to score, but even then they also missed a couple of sitters. It was a very bad day at the office and we got exactly what our play deserved in the end.

    Neither play like that though. You might like to see it, but they aren't those kind of players not does it appear as if Ange wants them to play that way. Ange wants control, precision and incision. The players have can do some of those things but not usually at the same time or in the same game.

    Villa changed their playing style to try and do something smart and got it completely wrong. That as well as them playing on Thursday played as much a part in us beating them as anyhing else.

    100% I said in a thread this week. People were getting a little too carried away with a match against a tired team who change their system to try and stymie us instead of just playing their game and got it completely wrong.

    **** Tottenham Hotspur FC vs Fulham FC ****

    The problem like you say is that we don't cope with the high line due to systemic pressure or shape. We rely very much on a particular players unique attribute. Its concerning because you can't have a system that relies on a sole player, that's a system that will always have days like today...

    Bro some people were even saying they didn't see us losing again this season. 🤦‍♂️ Some even still harbour thoughts of winning the league. Tottenham fans do love to get a quite carried away. 😅

    **** Tottenham Hotspur FC vs Fulham FC ****

    I absolutely agree. They are better teams than us, they also play the same way but again with much better players so it works. We are doing it largely with a squad that finished 8th last season plus some additions. We don't have the players truly to play this style, it's true, but we are trying...

    City essentially play this way, Arsenal aren't that different. Barcelona won absolutely everything playing this way. They all have one thing in common and that is a better quality of player than we currently have. Edit. And the teams mentioned are hardly the only ones. Loads across Europe and...

    It can work. You just need better players than we have.
