Well based on what people have said about Johnson surely he’d may be improve on kulu? Plus bent comes back in and May be his an improvement on Sarr in the short term?

You dopey mthrfkr.
No reason on earth not to just buy Tapsoba, along with VDV, and get the damn thing sorted and give your manager a proper chance.
Good summing up.
Some fans think we are flattering to deceive against mediocre teams (which i partly agree with) but the sides we have played so far (aside from United) we should be beating if we intend to get into Europe next season?
On either flank i haven't seen a side so far in the PL who have anything near as good, with Porro and Udogie outstanding so far.
With Johnson still to come in we will have more pace going forward from midfield and the forward line that will keep any other sides defence on their heels for most of any game when they play us.
My only fear is that we do look vulnerable with our high line, but I am sure that is why Ange was looking another CB.
Only sixteen games until the next TW so we will see.
We appear to be showing a different mentality that can only improve performance and results, which is something that we didn't see under Commandant Jose or Conte.
Early days, some hard knocks and inefficient performances ahead, but as a fanbase we have to stand firm.
Through adversity will come success, we just need to be patient and see the bigger picture.
I truly think that Kulu will be an onlooker once Johnson gets his wheels oiled by Ange.
Great post mate!
I think Tottenham fans have, been more than patient over the years, probably far too much shown at times.
But yes, so far, many of the players have bought into the program so far, and it's good to see with four games played.
It is of course early days, and it will be interesting to see, what happens when teams do sit deep and break( similar to what West ham done in the pre season friendlies)
I expect that Ange, will be more than aware of that, as teams in Scotland must have done the same thing last year.
We could be a surprise package for top four, but I think that might escalate us this year.
Maybe the Johnson signing, might help break the lines when teams sit deep.
I just hope, the team can remain free of bad injuries, especially at CB, as the depth there isn't great.
So I wasn't able to watch any of the match yesterday - going from the lineup (i.e. Solomon's inclusion) and positioning of Son for his three goals, am I correct in thinking Ange moved Sonny into the central striker position?
I don't dislike Richarlison but this may be the way forward if so, especially with Brennan Johnson's signing.

Watched the full match now. Obviously very happy with the result and great to see Son do so well centrally. Looking forward to what Johnson can bring to the team, hopefully playing as first choice on the right.
Fair play to Burnley, they were still going for it at 3-1 and 5-1 down. Thought we were unlucky for their second goal that it somehow went under VDV’s leg even though he got there in time.

I thought it had young offender vibes… boy band member attending his first day at court.
Yes, Sonny played central.
Even if he is, we now have 6 quality forward players for 4 spots, who are both interchangeable and fluid...
Son, Kulu, Richie, Solomon, Johnson and Maddison ...
That's some choice!
Even if Richie and Solomon end up as back up to the other four, that's none too shabby!
...and that's not even counting Veliz when he's ready and up to speed!
Deep down ! Common it won’t have to be that deep for love for the club. May be not the hierarchy.
Lol was travelling so was more frustrated by not being able to see the game and rely this forum and other updates. Hopefully you will recover soon
Tottenham fans patient?? Go and read the match thread before we equalised yesterday!! It’s embarrassing
Teams will get wise to how we play but Ange is constant in how he has his teams playing. In Scotland only Rangers never put everyone behind the ball and t because they continually pounded the opposition into making mistakes they’d win most games. It will be similar in the premier league and that’s why his team is now full of quick sharp good passers of the ball in tight areas that can deal with teams sitting in. Madders and Biss are key to that. If anything happens to those and Skipp and Hojbjerg start then results would change. It’s having the right personnel to playing against that type of team that sits in against us. I think the club let Ange down in the transfer window because we still needed another midfielder who has the guile and ability to play in those conditions
May be I guess that is for another day. Great thing is we are not dropping points to ‘lesser’ teams like we have in the past. These points will hopefully push to top 5 come end of season. Also momentum builds up. Imagine if we hard a few harder fixtures and results didn’t go our way? Pressure would build but let’s keep this going for next game then go into NLD in good shape. We cannot ask for more than that tbh.
Under non stick mason. I wonder what he adds and if Ange will have a ‘restructure’ of back room team?
Lol I did retract with later comment
Are you able to translate this into English, in case I want to respond?
