Match Everton v Spurs April 3rd

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The main XI was not the biggest issue for us. Tactics were. If we play more attacking today, this XI can win the game.

Obviously Dier, Lloris, Lenglet and Perisic need to be upgraded with better players. But we should still be beating fucking Everton.
 
Can’t believe Lloris comes straight back in. It’s the team we all expected so if it’s still the same formation it’s exactly the same as what Conte would do.
He can’t change as it would be saying conte got it wrong it’s his mate after all. I wouldn’t be surprised if conte fingers are still in the pie. Let’s see how pro active he is in changing things if things arnt working.

Don’t forget that Woolwich already lost here to Dyche.

We need a quality performance today if we want the win. Agree with you that it’s not the shape of the team or the starting XI that matters, it’s how we use the ball. We have to be bold and play with personality. If we play timid sideways shit then we are going to lose.
 
When Stellini managed us during Conte’s absence things felt more positive without many actual changes in personnel. I thought this might be because Conte was still giving the orders regarding team selection and formation etc. However I was hoping that now Conte has gone I thought perhaps naively that Stellini may change things up a bit and try a different system. I hope I am wrong and in any case Stellini needs to be given a chance but looking at that first team and formation I fear we may be in for more of the same shit.
