I’m not comparing us to Brighton, but for example, their first goal against Leicester comes from a situation that could’ve been set up by us.
Though, this time, Kulusevski plays as a RWB, putting in the crosses that Emerson can’t.
After watching Leicester’s recent way of building up, tomorrow we need to do something that we haven’t managed to pull of properly lately, a good intense press.
Their full back going wide to join the attack, has the CDMs and CBs building up. It is there where we apply pressure.
Playing back 5s back-to-back have made us look like we can’t be bothered to attack properly. I expect a 3-0 win against Leicester if they play a back 4.
I honestly would like to see us build up the way Man City do.
Have one CB, either Dier in the middle or Romero on the right, move up to create a midfield 3 with Hojbjerg and Bentancur.
Have Kulu and Perisic completely join the attack.
End it with a 4-4-2 in defence.
What goes through my mind constantly is the fact that Spurs aren’t top of a group shared with the Europa League winners and the best team in France after PSG.
As a matter of fact, neither are those two.
Hey all. Just in case some hadn’t noticed because of my retweets, I’m now using @RuthlesssRomero as my main account.
Looking forward to make a more professional use of that account, including tactical analysis and more in-depth opinions.
So feel free to follow it! Thank you!👍
As I was rewatching the game I realised that, as well as against Marseille, a back 5 seems impossible to penetrate for Spurs.
Passing the ball around between defence and midfield. While the opposition presses they wait for a pass to be done the front 3, and jump aggressively.
We are very well structured, and so are they, but I insist, there’s something we lack dramatically: connecting midfield to attack. It is true that having their 3 CBs on top of our front 3 all game makes this hard, but Bentancur and Hojbjerg need to find spaces behind their CMs.
Our three most influential players on paper play up front. We are not finding any way of finding them comfortably. Conte needs to find a solution to this or else time will run and goals will, not come.
