as another random thought: I didn’t realise until recently quite how much Gyökeres leans left in attack. I don’t have the stats to back it up, but I think there is a slight mismatch with him and Saka from how Saka isn’t the biggest fan of crossing and him being on that side. He does occupy space and defenders very effectively over there to open Saka up, though. Saka needs to get better at taking his chances, not been as good lately.
Random thought: do we think it’s a 4-3-3 atp or a 4-2-3-1. cuz the football apps been making it a 4-2-3-1 these days but I honestly still feel like it’s a 4-3-3 lol
Good question. I think it’s so fluid at this point that it varies from moment to moment.
Like I can see why they say it’s a 4-2-3-1, cuz the RCM does drift into central areas quite frequently, but I feel like the default state is with Eze / Saka / Ødegaard / whomever being more right side than middle. And never left side. Which makes me think 4-3-3.
Not only that, but our left backs (especially MLS and Calafiori) tend to drift into a left defensive midfield position when we are attacking. I think that tripped up a lot of commentators who assume we have a flat back four all the time and who aren’t looking at who that player actually is.
Spurs are so shit, they don’t even get a new manager bounce. Haha.
As for the NLD result…
🎶 It’s happened again, it’s happened again! Tottenham Hotspurs it’s happened again! 🎶
Part of me doesn’t want them to go down because it’s basically 6 points guaranteed for us. But if they do go down, the memes will be sublime!
It was pointed out that Spurs took 5 points from City this season. So, if Arsenal go on to win it, Spurs actively contributed.
If they were relegated as well… It’s too perfect to think about.
