Rick 2,272 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 As bad as Spurs have been, Arsenal have put them to the sword. Their forward play has been excellent. Smith-Rowe is some player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reluctant Striker 134 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 This is surely on Harry Kane & the chairman as much as Nuno. His Wolves tactics can't be that incompatible. The brave call would have been sell & replace. It's what I'd have reluctantly done. Through gritted teeth & steam coming out my ears. They now have a star man who thinks the grass is greener up north. Which was Plan A for so many failed managers in TV studios. This is the almost inevitable outcome. I feel sorry for Nuno, because he'll be back to lesser fancied mid table seeking suitors soon enough now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying to my partner every time they go forward with the ball they look like scoring as Saka was running in to the area for the third.

I'm quite glad he changed his agreed terms for us at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game plan has been executed to perfection They just have more hunger and tempo and desire to win this game, this derby. Spurs haven't turned up and it just looks like the players haven't played with each other again. There's no clear plan or purpose with their play.

Cicero 5,267 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 All goes back to my point this time last year when many thought Mourinho would lead them to the title after their bright start. This type of football is not sustainable. What does Levy do? Take a sideways step in manager replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,204 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 One thing I suppose you could say about Nuno is that at Wolves he had a lot of players tailor made to his style of play, you look at Spurs' midfield and you think how many of them would have done a better job for Nuno than Neves or Moutinho? And then you have Kane who isn't up to his previous form...and he had Jimenez. If Spurs are to do anything with Nuno it's a 2-3 year project, but do you really want to persist with this type of football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,378 Posted September 26, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted September 26, 2021 Also, a lot will be said about Arsenal's front players (and rightly so) but Tomiyasu has had a fab game keeping Son quiet and playing it forward. Arsenal look to have signed a decent player there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,378 Posted September 26, 2021 Author Administrator Share Posted September 26, 2021 Never a penalty. Don't think there was that much contact and would have been quite soft had that been overturned. Reguilon with his theatrics totally ignored was good to see.
