Good article OP. I think both are a tad overrated if the truth be told. The Prem is of a pretty poor quality, where not enough teams are capable of taking points of them like Spurs do.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When has the quality been higher? Or is "pretty poor quality" as good as it gets?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I really don't know why any body bothers with him anymore.
As for the OP, yeah, Conte has set up well against both us and City and utilises Sons strengths against both our weaknesses (or simply high line).
Your defenders also literally put in 20 quality blocks to stop shots but... good grief it's terrible to watch. For the money Spurs have spent I'd be dissapointed if not embarrassed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Disappointed*
The main point of the article was that City and Liverpool seem to have an air of invincibility about them and opposition teams usually go there without any intention of counter attacking.
Take Newcastle at City later, they'll probably go there, have 20% possession, clear the ball up field without any intent of a counter, defend well, eventually get broken down and lose 2/3-0.
Imo, teams should play Liverpool/City with a bit more bravery. Obviously you'll need to defend a lot, but rather than punting it up the pitch with desperate clearances attempt to play from the back and create situations where fast attackers can break.
Spurs were definitely brave yesterday, the likes of Romero, Bentancur etc attempting to play out through the press. Will obviously get caught out sometimes but imo more teams should play this way.

Conte is Italian he is always going to favour that style. Even if he had an unlimited budget his team will never play like a Pep or Klopp side. Has similarities with Simeone I'd say, both are winners. Does whatever it takes to win.
When Liverpool went decades without a title they stop caring how they won it they just wanted it! Spurs are the same. If they can have a team playing amazing football great but if they have to be a solid countering team to have a chance of medals I'm sure none will complain. Liverpool didn't when Benitez did it. Can't really blame them. I don't think it wins PLs but spurs are so far behind it'll at least get them way closer.
Not long ago spurs were doing better than Liverpool so the fact a draw is seen as such an amazing result kinda shows how much work they have to do. A step in the right direction though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah and it’s a good point about Benitez and the way Liverpool played under him….some Liverpool fans have very selective memories and the anti football remarks I’m sure weren’t used back then….in fact they revelled in it
Some coaches play a certain style and will always play that way and conte is one of them
He does need to find a plan b for the lesser teams though ….that or levy gives him some serious money to spend !

*don’t have
We don't park the bus in games and leave incentives for teams to attack. You will continue to struggle against the low block because you have no creativity in midfield and wing back area.
Lots of salty mousers about today. They really do not accept not winning very well. Worse supporters in world football.
They really do think the whole of football revolves around what they do.
I thought Klopp let himself down with his comments after like he often does when it doesn’t go his way.

Fair enough but I’m sure he had no issue with Spurs using similar tactics to win at the Etihad.
If everyone set up against City how Klopp wants football to be played there probably wouldn’t be a title race.

Yeah, he's a terrible loser (or even drawer). That's why he is elite I guess.
It may not be palatable but overall it's something I can accept. I can accept it more than moaning about the wind anyway and plus I thought Spurs tactics, for the money they have spent and the stature that they are (pr are supposed to be) was pretty embarrassing but that's just my opinion.
Said the same about Tuchel when he stuck 8 behind the ball against us. I'm more of a go out on your shield kind of guy. No accounting for taste though.

I get that but the reality is regardless of their stature if they go toe to toe with Liverpool they likely get well beaten.
West Ham showed how it should be done. Went at us from the off and it was a great game to watch and they actually won. Brighton took points off us, great game to watch. Benfica drew with us, great game to watch.
All teams worse than Spurs so this narrative that anti football is the only way to go, well, it's nonsense isn't it.

God, some of you Liverpool fans on here are so bitter. Anti football? You had 3 shots on target ffs 🤦♂️ at home and had to rely on a lucky deflection to bag a draw. You had all that play and did nothing with it. If anything, Spurs looked more likely to bag a winner and should have won it at the the end. I swear you lot expect teams to just roll over for you and when teams do give you a game in which you can’t penetrate us, you seem to be extremely offended. Happy we ended your title hopes now
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Had 22 shots, yes we had all that play. It wasn’t a surprise when a shot deflected into the goal, when you are set up to block shots don’t be surprised when one goes in an area you didn’t want it to.
We should have taken more shots to be honest we had the play to do it.
Forgot Brentford! That was an insane game. Amazing really.

The only embarrassment is Hoody making a complete fool of himself with his stupid comments. Spurs have outscored Liverpool in the Prem 2022, so HTF can he say Spurs are boring.

What do you disagree with ?
I think Spurs are close to be a top team. They need a CB, a wingback and a creative midfielder in the summer window. Conte is a world class manager who will improve them further and it won't surprise me if they will be the third best team next season. They need to find a way how to play against those deep compact defences if they want to challenge for the league.

I swear you lot expect teams to just roll over for you and when teams do give you a game in which you can’t penetrate us, you seem to be extremely offended. Happy we ended your title hopes now
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Had 22 shots, yes we had all that play. It wasn’t a surprise when a shot deflected into the goal, when you are set up to block shots don’t be surprised when one goes in an area you didn’t want it to.
We should have taken more shots to be honest we had the play to do it.

I thought Klopp let himself down with his comments after like he often does when it doesn’t go his way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I dunno, the man is a quite terrible loser, even drawer, and personally I love that.
He has his ideals on how football should be played and that revolves around the fans and entertainment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fair enough but I’m sure he had no issue with Spurs using similar tactics to win at the Etihad.
If everyone set up against City how Klopp wants football to be played there probably wouldn’t be a title race.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, he's a terrible loser (or even drawer). That's why he is elite I guess.
It may not be palatable but overall it's something I can accept. I can accept it more than moaning about the wind anyway and plus I thought Spurs tactics, for the money they have spent and the stature that they are (pr are supposed to be) was pretty embarrassing but that's just my opinion.
Said the same about Tuchel when he stuck 8 behind the ball against us. I'm more of a go out on your shield kind of guy. No accounting for taste though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I get that but the reality is regardless of their stature if they go toe to toe with Liverpool they likely get well beaten.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The only embarrassment is Hoody making a complete fool of himself with his stupid comments. Spurs have outscored Liverpool in the Prem 2022, so HTF can he say Spurs are boring.

Conte is Italian he is always going to favour that style. Even if he had an unlimited budget his team will never play like a Pep or Klopp side. Has similarities with Simeone I'd say, both are winners. Does whatever it takes to win.
When Liverpool went decades without a title they stop caring how they won it they just wanted it! Spurs are the same. If they can have a team playing amazing football great but if they have to be a solid countering team to have a chance of medals I'm sure none will complain. Liverpool didn't when Benitez did it. Can't really blame them. I don't think it wins PLs but spurs are so far behind it'll at least get them way closer.
Not long ago spurs were doing better than Liverpool so the fact a draw is seen as such an amazing result kinda shows how much work they have to do. A step in the right direction though.

This is spot on.

I think Spurs are close to be a top team. They need a CB, a wingback and a creative midfielder in the summer window. Conte is a world class manager who will improve them further and it won't surprise me if they will be the third best team next season. They need to find a way how to play against those deep compact defences if they want to challenge for the league.

West Ham showed how it should be done. Went at us from the off and it was a great game to watch and they actually won. Brighton took points off us, great game to watch. Benfica drew with us, great game to watch.
All teams worse than Spurs so this narrative that anti football is the only way to go, well, it's nonsense isn't it.

It's kind of the point of the site to discuss such things. I imagine you'll be glad to see the back of that kind of football though??
