Valverde de nouveau latéral droit : Xabi Alonso doit avoir un sourire (après tous les soucis causés par l'Uruguayen l'an passé, il ne dit plus rien pour jouer à ce poste...)
👀👀👀👀#alonsofiles
Only way to explain this is by concluding Alonso was Lowkey Just the man manager and that granit Xhaka was the actual coach of this team and blended wengers relationism with arteta’s 22/23 jdp to create this football on display…..
clips which highlight this tweet about 1st half issues💀 pressing cbs without blocking passing lanes 😂 no back press on fernandes 😂 moi/hendo timing jumps seemed poor/hesitant probably not helped by the press not being backed up by the cbs.Only time we seemed m2m was from gk’s
Spurs are creating issues centrally in settled possession phases, which I mentioned was a missed opportunity for the opponents when we played Everton and especially Bournemouth. Spurs are generating 3v2 overloads with Fernandes, Tonali, and Maddison dropping below. With neither Palmer nor Rogers picking up Fernandes, Spurs can produce a free man between the lines. Sometimes Neto is getting dragged inside, which opens space out wide for the full-back and winger to create a 2v1 against Acheampong. If Chelsea's front line does not support the midfield, this performance problem will continue. Or else, Alonso needs to trigger a man-man press.
