Harry Kane having another blinder. Lamela also looking likely and Bentaleb playing really well.. Feel like Mason and Walker are a little TOO up for it, a few lapses from them but putting in big tackles to make up for them. Entertaining so far.
 
... and Dembele should be nowhere near the start XI.

Dembele has been fantastic since his re-introduction to the team. All our problems comes from the right side, all because Townsend is terrible. Defensively horrid, offensively if the ball goes out right it isnt going anywhere untill west ham wing it (which usually takes about 3 seconds). Other players, like Dembele and Mason, loses the ball when near the right side cause of Townsends bullshit.

We need to get rid of this guy.
 
So is our defending good or poor?

Well, our pressing in middle and final 3rds is quite good, matching WHU easily. It's our zonal marking and the tracking in our own 3rd that remains the problem. As good as NB & RM are in just about everything else, they still have problems defending that space ahead of our centrebacks.

Downing looking increasingly active, which is - all the jokes on his behalf in spite - not in our interest.
