This lineup will have us destroyed by any team that has fast forwards, have you seen how slow lenglet is? Or do you think Forster can play as a sweeper keeper? Because that’s what they will have to do when the oppositions counters.Kane, Son, Richarlison, Bissouma, Davies and Lenglet have all successfully played in a possession based attacking system and I see no reason why Kulusevski, Danjuma, Bentancur, Sarr, Skipp, Porro, Udogie, Emerson and Romero wouldn't be able to.
Even with our current injuries, I would feel more confident going with an attacking system with the below starting 11, than our current line ups.

Every manager is managing a project. This daft dichotomy of project manager vs here-and-now manager is what got us in this fucking mess in the first place. We need a really good manager. Full stop. We had one, then we shot ourselves in foot by sacking him and hiring three defensive so-and-sos since then.As much as I don’t want to say it, we need a ‘Project’ manager. Someone who will play attractive football that the fans will like, someone who won’t demand a lot and is happy to work with bargain players and prospects... ‘Club signings’.
No it is not. This is pure hyperbole.Football is as bad as under Nuno.
This is the team that lost to Middleborough last season. Wonder whether we lost to Middleborough because Romero was playing or the teams General performance.Its jarring. It’s one thing to rotate and not select him from the start, but he should’ve been subbed on by half time.
We get destroyed by fast forwards anyway. Toby and Vetrs Were hardly quick.This lineup will have us destroyed by any team that has fast forwards, have you seen how slow lenglet is?

We simply don’t have the squad to play that possession base attacking football.
They were probably still quicker than Lenglet. They didn't need to be quick though becasue they were extremely good at reading the game and had Walker and Rose either side of them with pace to burn as well.We get destroyed by fast forwards anyway. Toby and Vetrs Were hardly quick.
Kane is the reason for that, take him out the team and we’d be 10thUsual knee jerk reactions, when Spurs sitting 4th in the PL with a squad so many don't rate, lose. Whose fault is it we are 4th in the PL ?
Yeah Davies and lenglet's rip roaring pace covering at the back and Kane and Son pressing the shit out of defenders up front.Kane, Son, Richarlison, Bissouma, Davies and Lenglet have all successfully played in a possession based attacking system and I see no reason why Kulusevski, Danjuma, Bentancur, Sarr, Skipp, Porro, Udogie, Emerson and Romero wouldn't be able to.

Yeah so let's make it easier by playing a high back line.We get destroyed by fast forwards anyway. Toby and Vetrs Were hardly quick.
It’s not as bad but considering it’s a stronger team the comparisons are fairNo it is not. This is pure hyperbole.
Davie's lack of pace was fine for Poch, Vertonghen and Toby were also slow. Son worked in Poch's system and Richarlison and Kulusevski are great at pressing. Kane would be closing the passing lanes rather than pressing.Yeah Davies and lenglet's rip roaring pace covering at the back and Kane and Son pressing the shit out of defenders up front.
You're right the only option is to allow the opposition to attack our shot defence.Yeah so let's make it easier by playing a high back line.

Or upgrade the shot defence which we should’ve done when Poch leftYou're right the only option is to allow the opposition to attack our shot defence.
Strategic alternatives ????. Like banging square pegs into round holes, which we’ve done for the past 3-4 years.He’s steadily losing his bargaining chips here. I think if we exit the Champions League next week, that could be it for him.
He massively let the club down tonight and unless he changes his tune and makes it clear he wants to commit his future here, I expect the club to explore strategic alternatives
Top 4 at the end of the season and then we can take the piss out of Chelsea.Yep it's annoying we are top 4. Just imagine how Chelsea fans are feeling.
8 clean sheets in 12 before yesterdayYou're right the only option is to allow the opposition to attack our shot defence.
