Not long ago it seemed we had players that fought together as a unit and could win under pressure. They had character it seemed. So unbalanced disjointed and blunt at present.
 
Get Ndombele in there and a striker and room for optimism.

Lloris
Aurier - Sanchez - Toby - Tanganga - Sessegnon
Gedson - Ndombele - Lo Celso
Lamela - Son
Fuck it.
 
Spurs: souring my weekend early once again.

The basic gameplan was fine, but hampered by not having a real number 9 to use as a focal point. Watford being allowed to beat us up by the ref did not help matters and Tanganga was done a disservice having to hunt Sarr.

Getting a striker in has to be the priority in the coming week. Preferably as late as Monday so he can play Norwich.
 
You need to understand it doesn't matter if Aurier has a few moments each and every game, it's his overall positioning, decisionmaking and passing which lets the shape of the team down.

Vertonghen is clearly past it.
Aurier is hysterically bad for team shape.
Dele is clumsy and incredibly slow to turn around with the ball.
Tanganga is not a left back, neither a right back, yet.
Lucas is not a striker.

There you go, when half the team is fucking up the general shape of the team, it doesn't matter how you set up or what the rest of the players are doing right or not.

If this summer isn't a big old cleanout and shopping-spree. We are fucking done.
