The Kraken Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 Just now, Saint NL said: Is Armstrong on the pitch? Well he just lost control while we were attacking that led to a Tottenham break. So, yes, he’s there. We have no out ball. Adams would definitely be a better option than Armstrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Fastenbüttl Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 At least Lavia and Aribo look great, as does JWP and... shock horror... Djenepo.

allsa001 Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 Positive from this game is Lavia looks an amazing signing. Also 2 goals conceded, and keeper not at fault. That's a step up from mccarthy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sydney_saint Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 A real issue with this formation is there really aren't many places to pass the ball. If we are playing out from the back, then it is getting spread to the wingbacks most of the time. So easy to then squeeze us to losing the ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintscottofthenortham Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 1 minute ago, Toussaint said: For those banging on about AA, he isn’t responsible for the chaotic and wide open defending Nobody said he his... But he is responsible for holding up the ball and being of some use when we get the ball. He does neither. To be fair to him though, we already knew this, so the question really is why is he even on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttawaSaint Posted 6 August, 2022 Share Posted 6 August, 2022 1 minute ago, Toussaint said: For those banging on about AA, he isn’t responsible for the chaotic and wide open defending Yes but if the ball isn't being held up properly, Spurs are able to control and launch attacks unchallenged.
