We found ourselves in a delicate situation.
The unlucky club suffered 13 defeats during the season
The devil’s dozen is assembled, because Postecoglou lost to Moyes. David won again with Everton several years later. And Spurs got involved too late. And even though we recovered two goals, we conceded three before. A painful failure, because there were foreigners. The weakness of the last teams in the table allows Manchester United or Tottenham don’t worry. Rich clubs unlikely to leave nuclear submarine at the end of the season. But the results outrage fans of the teams that not so long ago participated in the European Cup final.
Amorim called his Manchester United perhaps the worst team in the club’s history. The Portuguese is wrong, there have been even lower ones. And if we take recent history and take into account how much money Manchester United won by Sir Alex Ferguson, then everything is correct. We sank to the bottom. Tottenham are used to failure. But the lack of trophies has already been a source of criticism. Spurs are currently ninth in the Europa League table. As things stand, it is strange to dream of victory. It will also be difficult to repel Liverpool’s attacks.
Postecoglou beat Slot in the League Cup home semi-final. The second leg at Anfield Road will be a real test for Angelos and the players. However, thirteen defeats reflect a unique situation. Tottenham have an entire team out of reach. This is not the case when people complain about an epidemic of injuries, including seized cleaners. The Spurs have lost stars. Goalkeeper Vicario does not play. They signed Kinski, the son of the Saturn legend. Cech is worse on the line than when he plays with the ball.
Without Udoji, Romero and van de Ven, three of the four defenders are missing, with the exception of Porro. Welshman Davis has just returned. Last season, Ben played 17 games nuclear submarine and was an important reservist. Bissouma, the main midfielder, is also missing. The Uruguayan Bentancur fell on the field and scared everyone. It looked like neurological issues. The concussion affected the player’s body. Rodrigo seems fine, but needs time to recover. And before that, there were other injuries.
Young Frenchman Wilson Odobert is not a key player for Spurs, but he is not ready either. If you add the Welshman Johnson, as well as the famous Werner and Solanke, you get quite a team. Forward Richarlison suffered two serious injuries; the Brazilian just returned, came on and scored against his former club, Everton. It’s good that at least playmaker Maddison is injury-free this time. But leader Song survived two injuries. Solanke is also unlucky. He missed the ball in training and was injured again.
Personal mistakes made a unique situation worse
Everton changed coach after failure. The London team should therefore have played differently against the Toffees. We certainly shouldn’t have conceded three goals in the first half. David Moyes was happy with players considering leaving Everton. But Postecoglou is not happy with his players. Even when they play against real amateurs. Tottenham recently played an FA Cup away match against a fifth division club. Moreover, they are newcomers to the fifth league; they previously played in sixth form.
Tamworth had guys on the field with regular jobs other than playing football. Scored a draw against the club nuclear submarine at the usual time. Tottenham put the finishing touches on their lowly opponents in extra time, but Postecoglou was not happy with his players’ performance. At certain points in the match, the match was balanced. One strong team used the ball stupidly, while the other weak team fought back competently. Tottenham players are responsible for recent results. We’ll come back to the manager later, but where is the competent football from men on huge salaries?
Let’s take Spurs’ line-up against Everton. Romanian defender Dragushin is not Count Orlok, no one in England is afraid of him. But Radu receives 5.2 million euros per year in London. Moreover, the Romanian knows very well that his role is to replace the main defenders. Van de Ven is paid 3 million, even if the Dutchman starts more often when he is healthy. Even Archie Gray, who scored an own goal against Everton, is not a reserve on a cheap salary. His salary amounts to 4.6 million euros per year. A very important detail.
When in nuclear submarine blaming coaches, referees and circumstances, they forget that in the English championship even 18-year-old Swede Lukas Bergwall receives almost a million euros a year at Tottenham. Even when Solanke, Werner, Romero and Vicario are not there, there are millionaires on the pitch. That’s why it’s a shame to have vague matches so often, especially without the ball. Spurs are in 15th place in terms of chances allowed by their opponents. Tottenham’s defense has conceded more goals in nuclear submarinethan Manchester United’s Onana defense.
There is no point in expelling a decent mentor Postecoglou
They won’t find anyone stronger. Postecoglou has spent the season working, and now he has started to reform the attack. Last season, they were two points short of beating Aston Villa in the Champions League. They are now 16 points behind the coveted fourth place and have created a lot of problems for themselves. At the same time, it is possible to grow as a team, as Kulusevski’s piece shows. This is the season when Tottenham try to become Postecoglou’s team. The mentor is not a fan of mass rotation, but has dealt with a series of injuries.
Force the Spurs to have the ball. Tottenham are in the top three in offensive minutes. Like Maresca at Chelsea, Postecoglou lays the foundations. Once the defenders come back, they can calm down and win. It is important that the team is not afraid of its own shadow. Tottenham, like any club without trophies, is quite timid. Don’t let timely returns confuse you. At the decisive moment, all audacity will disappear. They will be weak if they do not change their psychology. Reserve players are currently failing the maturity test.
But Postecoglou can score points more often with Vicario, Romero, Bissouma and van de Ven. In the meantime, we have to fight Daniel Levy. Tottenham boss doesn’t respect coaches. A successful investor is unlikely to respect people. And his partner, grandfather Joe Lewis, isn’t an example of high moral standards either. Tottenham have a controversial record in this matter. Excellent players like Kane and Son trusted them in vain. After all, again and again the owner can get angry and chase a decent mentor out into the cold.
Former Spurs manager Pochettino had a different personality to Postecoglou. Mauricio himself was like Tottenham. Impetuous and without cups. The Australian is different. While the club rejects him as a good person within the system with no goal of winning trophies. They implanted a new muscle in the heartless, capable of pumping blood. If Daniel Levy is smart enough leave Postecoglou alone, Tottenham can change. The team will experience defeats during the recovery from the crisis that follows. Otherwise, everything will stay the same.
