Because maybe the penny will drop eventually that the personnel aren't the sole factor, but the disparate way we play that requires a very exact set of circumstances. Its how a team of our squad players can score 4 goals, but then the strongest XI can concede 3 in the space of a week. Yeah, we can put some snappy passes together every now and again, but we've looked amateur for over a year now.Well im thinking more in terms of what Levy will do. But no improvement with Bentancur in there is a massive worry. For all the pelters our wingers are getting, Postecoglou gave his approval to sign Johnson and Werner.
Badly, badly need a better DM.....It’s very Sissoko and Winks in the middle.
No good centre midfield play / playersWe’re just so badly coached.
In possession our players are miles apart from each other which gives them no easy options and they’re often forced backwards. Out of possession, it’s so easy for teams to exploit those spaces as soon as we lose the ball and waltz through our midfield - their goal comes from Spence losing the ball in the #10 position and our only midfield cover anywhere near the ball being … Brennan Johnson.
It’s not aggressive, it’s not attractive, it’s just poor coaching. And today hasn’t been the worst we’ve played by a long shot.
Fair, but if we’re not going to give managers players for a defensive system or players for an offensive system you feel we might as well become comfortable in midtable which isn’t much of anything.Because maybe the penny will drop eventually that the personnel aren't the sole factor, but the disparate way we play that requires a very exact set of circumstances.

THe definition of bang average, the lot of themThere is absolutely no intelligence or guile in our front 3
I think a lot of people had selective memory when it came to Bentancur's form this season.But no improvement with Bentancur in there is a massive worry.
Son and Johnson came the closest to scoring and had shots on target, it’s probably a pretty simple algorithm doing the scoring.View attachment 149387
Interesting to see who is rated highest player for Spurs in the first half
