here it is: we are actually worse defensively, in addition to offensively, when palhinha and bentancur play together.
palhinha - world class ball winner, offers nothing else

bentancur - poor at duels, can’t progress the ball

the seconds balls…said by the managers who don’t have a plan for the first balls.

man united are horrendous, but when you have possession, you actually have a greater ability to score.

novel, i know.

A major trophy and a semi in the second year of a rebuild with a half crocked squad is pretty impressive, imo.

We have the worst build up structure I have ever seen at Spurs by a considerable margin. I really don’t see what anyone think this is building towards. Yes we can get the odd result but it’s tedious and we are dreadful

Stop being negative we are only on -0.49 xGD per 90. Yes we have a lower xGD than Nuno and yes we have a lower Points Per game than Nuno but…. Yeah I have nothing.

Decent result. Awful performance. Our use of the ball and build up is appalling

Any point is a good point, but we are still unimaginative and crap. Deep down, you know this.
