It’s worrying how easily spurs get to our end

Foden needs to drive at his man

 

[TrentGrisham]

Bernado has been poor of late

huh?!

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Love Alvarez but i don't know why Pep is reluctant to play Grealish there instead?

Because we defend/press in a 442 and that role has to press alongside Haaland. Grealish doesn’t have the attributes for it.

One central midfielder has to press relentlessly up top (KDB/Alvarez) and the other has to defend in a 2 man midfield next to Rodri (Bernardo/Kovacic/Nunes/Rico)

Grealish doesn’t fit in either role.

Midfield is a shambles. It’s just not working on closing down attacks.

We have Rodri on his own is the issue

 

[Rory Bluelow]

Their fast press seems to have us rattled. They’ll never keep it up though.

 

[dhruvblue]

Have we created a chance since Haaland miss? Don't think so

 

[Damanino]

surprised its much closer game than expected.

they have some of their best players out like 4-5 of them. I hope they tire out for 2nd half.

Oh!
