On my phone I just see “Merson” in midfield.

I know we’re bad but, that rambling old man?

This is where we are at with this team

A real lack of creativity and even consistency within that midfield as well. Skipp and Hojbjerg would provide a pretty decent shield but Ndombele doesn't look like a creative player to me, just a good technician with the ball and looks like he's more suited to a 4-3-3 which is the style I think you're going for.

You do need to get Gil into your team.

I think we need to drop Hojbjerg and Kane. And sack Nuno.

The tactics are that we have the midfielders close to the forwards so that when we play long balls to the forwards we are more likely to win the second ball and then we have the ball in dangerous areas to attack the opposition. It renders the opposition midfield bank useless.

It doesn’t work as well when you don’t win any of your aerial battles

Nuno doesnt want to be seen as going defensive.
Like the weekend we played an attacking team but those players didnt know what do so they were lumping it to nobody. Its like he does not know what to do. He should do what he knows best but he won't.

He played the same tactic he did at the weekend many times before in his career, including Wolves and Valencia

I wonder if he coached the players in those tactics

This exactly. Deep down he knows he can't trust himself with this formation. Play 3 at the back and let our full backs make the pitch wider for more space for our defenders and midfielders to find passes.

The centre backs are the main culprits for our bad football. There's no surprise that Dier and Sanchez are the common denominators. They love hoofball.

Nuno wasnt good enough for Wolves, a mid table side and was sacked- so what made Levy think he was good enough for us? Only reason was he was basically no compensation needed to be paid
Typical Levy

If Spurs fans were serious about things they'd have boycotted games by now...but you just take it up the chuff from Levy

So you get what you get

Stadium would still be full so would achieve nothing. Lots of Sports tourists in London.

That isn’t true at all, it is clearly a tactic otherwise why had they not played hoof ball for club and country prior?

First off, it's on Paratici more than Levy.
Second off, it's not like he was first pick. He was maybe 6th?
Third off, is not even clear he was sacked.

"Nuno's tactics"??
Does he have any?
Didn't you see the video of his press conference after the Arsenhole match ?
........
A questioner was asking about "the game plan"!!
YUP...his game plan!
Nuno couldn't really put two words together in answer..... he was just disjointed, hesitant, incapable of a coherent answer.
I think he finally might have said something about the players couldn't stick to the game plan. Maybe that's what he said.
Find that video and watch it...please...it will tell you all you need to know about this manager!
This guy was Levy's ninth choice!!
I doubt the players respect him....
He has got to go !

He was Levy's 9th...NINTH attempt.

Nuno is far from a hopeless manager but he is very limited in his approach. With us he was able to build a side that he wanted with little pressure given we were in the championship.

He doesn't have that luxury with a side whose fans lurch from arrogantly championing being top of the table after three games to demanding his head three games later.

No, he doesn’t have that luxury because he is at spurs, a club with Infrastructure and players (and charge prices) to expect a certain level of performance, not necessarily wins. He also is at a club which has had an awful 2 years and the fans are growing impatient at seemingly obvious errors repeatedly being made.

Being top was lauded because arsenal were bottom and it was just fun banter at a time when we had been starved of it, and we’re on the receiving end of it all summer re Kane.

Tables have turned but they will turn back. It’s football.
