Are we looking good enough?

It's early days yet but I wonder if we need to add more dimensions to our style of play?

On one hand Dembele returning will transform us significantly as when he plays we look so much better. He's the player that makes us tick and he dominates midfield. Additionally, Son should also come in and add that bit of electricity to our attacking play. Alli looks great! I trust Kane to perform again this season and Jansen seems to be a decent buy. Plus Lamella looks very confident this season!

But on the other hand I still feel that we lack in 2 areas.

1. Will we be able to break teams down?
2. Will we be able to balance the midfield when Dembele is not around?

I personally would love to see a Darren Fletcher type of CM at the club as well as a pacy forward. It'd be good to have a player that could step in and help change the dynamic.

As I said, it's early days and I trust Poch but I wonder if I'm alone in my thoughts or if there are othersome that may agree...

********************
NO!
The standard of the Palace game was "English Hoof Ball".
The Euro Chumpionship is a much higher standard.
Spurs are going to have to improve in all areas..
The key area is midfield. This was unimaginative to say the least. Dembele may help. But Lamela has got to show up in his best play-maker form.
And maybe harry Kane is still on holiday?
On a positive note I thought both backs were fine, specially Walker.
Jury is out on Worm.

Didn't watch yesterday but if the euros were of better quality then we should be worried. The worst tournament I've ever seen in terms of technique, ball retention and entertainment, and I've seen plenty

Vorm
Yedlin Toby Jan Davies
Moussa Dier
Lamela Alli Winks
Jansenn

Please tell me this is a WUM
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why? Who is better looking that would replace them in the team? Certainly not Kane ot Wimmer

--------------------------------------------------------

We must be watching a different sport.

Yedlin
Winks

I think Rose is on a higher level than Davies but at least there's an argument to be made...

Eriksen had a fantastic end of last season.
Kane is the best player Spurs have produced for decades and one of the best few strikers in the league. Lloris is a fantastic keeper (remember Gomes?) and we should be grateful we have him.

In fact I'm going to stop typing because your opinion is hilariously biased and based solely on emotion and zero logic.

Clarification: I don't mean the Euros we played in. I mean the Euros that Bayern, Real and Barca play in.
