Him playing left back rather than a wing back means fuck all when he can’t stop crosses,control and pass to a team mate and cross a ball. The fundamentals of the game are the same. He’s fucking hopeless but I hope he can find something that can help us stay up along with all the other shite that is in our team.
Why should we not blame the players when it goes wrong? They are the only ones who can fix it once they go over that white line.
It means, like many of the players that we purchase we force them into positions they aren't naturally capable of playing him and haven't yet nurtured or developed him to reach his full potential. On top of that the constant changes in management and the overall poor performances during his time at the club haven’t helped his progression either.
Get this though, this is the common kind of mismanagement at this club and how utterly rank our profiling is:
Udodie signed as a LWB from Udinese, played as a LB
Porro signed as a RWB from Sporting, played as a RB
Spence signed as RWB from Forest, played mostly as a LB
Romero only really played in a back 3 before coming to Spurs
Dragusin same as above and we expected him to play out the back when that's not his game
Vicario's strength was never playing out from the back and yet we expect him to play out the back
I could go through the rest of our players and it doesn't get much better by the way, loads of midfield mismatches and for our forwards as well...we don't really give our players a chance to succeed because we generally mis profile and mismanage them.
Ask yourself why none of these players generally improve year on year, and also ask yourself why when our players go away and play with their NT's and away from Tottenham their basic fundamentals suddenly magically return and they're capable of playing up to their level and beyond?
Why should we not blame the players? Well if you want to excuse the club and the morons who built this squad that's up to you but personally they should be under far more scrutiny than the players.
Of course the players can take some of the blame, I'm not excusing the players because they've been shit but let's maybe do a bit of critical thinking and look beyond the surface as to why Destiny, like the vast majority of our players, get worse or just level out, it can't all be on the players...the club environment and culture is rotten.
