‘Nasty’ Tottenham produce dark arts masterclass against Man City to set new Conte standard

[mawspurs]

For the first time this season, Tottenham produced a complete and classic Antonio Conte performance — albeit without Antonio Conte. Watching from his home in Italy, where he is recovering from surgery, Conte must have been proud of the way his players executed their game plan, combining thrilling counter-attacking with bodies-on-the-line defending and no shortage of the dark arts.

Dark arts? F**k off they got away with dragging us back during dangerous counter attacks a ridiculous number of times.

I think our main 'dark artist' was Hojbjerg, with maybe Romero giving Alfie an early clattering.
Think PEH is very good at breaking up the game and the opponent's rhythm.
