    I don't think so. We reverted to 5 at the back, having briefly switched to 4 when Danjuma came on.

    What about Kulusevski and Romero? And Bissouma makes their bench at least.

    Team shape

    I realise it requires new signings but the two I've suggested seem likely enough, don't you think? And we desperately need an alternative to this turgid 5 at the back. I think Romero works in a back 4, but agree he needs to calm down a bit. Graham Roberts had similar issues but did v well in a...

    Well, this thread really captured the imagination, didn't it?

    Team shape

    Team could be Lloris Royal/ Spence Romero de Vrij Sess Biss/Hojbjerg Bents Deki New AM Son Kane De Vrij is obvs just an example. God, we're shit at full back, aren't we.....?

    Team shape

    I can't see any particular tactics thread at the moment. Shoot me down in flames if there is and I've missed it. Our shape is all wrong it seems. We just can't get the balance right between defence and attack with 3/5 at the back. No matter if it's 343 or 352. We're doing an awful lot of...

    He kept some top defenders out of the Barcelona and France teams, so I'm happy to give him a few more chances.....mate.

    Made one mistake (for the 2nd goal) so the kneejerkers want him gone.

    Match Threads Spurs Vs Newcastle

    The usual overreaction to a defeat. We played OK today. Probably better than we have in some of our wins this season. But we were up against a decent well drilled well motivated side. Conte is not a disaster based on today, and the squad don't all need upgrading based on today. If we got in a...

    Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

    Is Conte's family not over here in London with him?? That's a bit of a worry, imo.

    The lack of coherency in our recruitment strategy

    I'd be delighted with Brozovic, De Vrij and Lamptey. Throw in a back up striker (maybe on loan) and we've pretty much solved all our major deficiencies.

    Traore has a good attitude apparently. You wouldn't say the same about any of those three.

    I can't see Davies being wing back.

    So what's wrong (fitness wise) with Skipp, Moura and Reggie?

    Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

    We don't know that though, do we? If Rodon played and assume Sanchez then marked Rudiger instead of Tanganga, maybe he doesn't lose him at the corner and we don't concede. If Sess played and got a couple of decent crosses in maybe we score too. Then we win the game. It's not a given...
