Not an easy job but it’s not like all the Spurs pieces are awful. The front three (Son/Kane/Moura) was good enough to fire them to a CL Final not too long ago.
I think their transfers this season has been suspect however. Bryan Gil is warming the bench and Emerson Royal doesn’t seem that good. Think it was @SRCJJ who thought Paratici’s squad building was shit. Looking on the money there.
I’m always staggered when people mention ndombele as a good player. He was in so many combined 11s. He is a dreadful midfielder, doesn’t concentrate, doesn’t work off the ball.
Kane losing the ball by being shit, tracking back true grit captain style, commits a over dramatic slide just to set Saka up for a goal, could be my favourite moment from the game.
Mou genuinely ruined him, you can see it in that Spurs documentary.
At one point he says that Fergie gave him one piece of advice, “sign Dele Alli,” the mad contrarian that Mou is he decided to just fucking destroy the lads confidence and career lmao. Fair play tbh, don’t tell me what to do.
I was thinking about Dele Alli before the game and wanted to ask OA why they think he went downhill so rapidly but thought I will not risk a jinx and kept quite.
