Match Ipswich (A) - 22nd February - 3PM KICK OFF, AN ACTUAL 3PM KICK OFF

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Those numbers show just how versatile and talented young Archie is.

Whether it's LB, RB, LCB, RCB or DM, he just moves seamlessly between positions.

I remember Dragusin moving from RCB to LCB to cover VDV and he was completely lost and really struggled.

Archie deserves some playing time in midfield. Off the bench to start with, he could go to another level.

agree he's been out of position but we all know why - one hopes eh?
 
Loads of pace in that lineup.

Djed and Brennan used to link up well at Forest. Not sure we’ve ever tried them as a combo here.
Good shout.

We need somebody to get Johnson into games. He's fast and a decent finisher but he needs somebody to create for him, maybe that is Djed.

Standing Johnson out wide and expecting him to beat players and create for others is not his cup of tea.

Not sure if Ange has ever played using a second striker in his games but that would suit Johnson down to the ground. Playing high, making runs in behind and creating space for Solanke or Tel in behind.
 
Johnson’s best attribute is actually arriving at the back corner on time and finishing. Seems a simple thing, but literally no one else on either wing has shown the same. The low, driven cross is a huge part of this system.

Hoping Odebert shows the same.
 
Good shout.

When Son goes, should we get a coach that might actually be willing to try a variation of a system, Brennan would be perfect as the Son replacement counter attack ST or second ST.
 
No real team news update.

Everyone from last week okay

Micky back for 1st alkmar game

Romero and Dom hopefully back for second

My God, somebody else who sees where Johnson would excel.

As a wide player he is somewhat limited but positioned to run off a main striker, would probably play to his strengths.
