Think of this like Spurs xG not being the same as our actual goals scored.
It depends, i think we should use Spence against tricky wingers, he's a lot better than Porro defending. But Porro is probably one of the best RB going forward, so... it's a good problem to have.Judging by Spence's display at RB on Saturday, Porro is in no danger of losing his spot.
Exactly. Bad rotation of the squad, should be rested against Villa and saved for today as he played 90 minutes in both Spain games.
Agree- he should be on left-sided corners and indirects from deep mostly. Right now the only ones I want to see taking directs are Xavi, Maddison and Kulu- and maybe Bergvall- maybe.Insists on taking directs, but still drills it into the wall 50% of the time
He ain't even that good offensively. And took yet another embarrassing free kick last nite.He is what he is. Good passer and crosser character so will have folk in love with him. But he's a terrible rightback. Im also worried constantly swapping sides is not helping Spence iron out the rough edges in his game. Porro is an offensive weapon only.
His passing was, it was like he was on crack.
