Naughton had his fair share of games, Chiriches and Paulinho too.

Eriksen all bar one

I'd be interested to see the same analysis except for the worst results

Feel free to crack on

HRH

Doing this on a Friday

On a train, bored

I was quite shocked to see Chiriches was involved in most of our best victories last season.

What the hell has happened to him ?, absolutely shocking this year.

Still hate Adebayor and

Paulinho is broken

Terrible article OP

This snapshot of results cuts through that long winded article by another Spurs fan about buying mentally tough players versus players of flair..

A good manager can bring the best out of any player and make them play organised, solid and flair football.

Like Pullis showed last year when he took over Palace with almost the same bunch of players, he got more out of them.

Not advocating we get Pullis, just merely pointing out that the organistaion of players, their mental status and how the players approach a game is down to ONLY one person at the club...

The MANAGER

"The MANAGER"


B b b but we don't have one, we have a head coach!!

B b b but we don't have one, we have a head coach!!

===================


Lovely, you know the lingo

You know exactly who it is I am pointing at here

The head coach is just a mumbo-jumbo invented by people with ipad at training ground because it sounds so much better than the manager?

Like the "Director of football"

You could argue what football? we don't have that too?

Chill...

What I find interesting is that when I suggested Lennon should start recently I got told he's been awful for the last couple of years, yet there he is in every side (sides that scored quite heavily)

The constants?

CB partnerships where one attacks and one sweeps.

A direct winger starting.

A strong centre forward leading the line (and scoring goals)




Performances like this with Naughton, Chiriches and Paulinho featuring heavily, and the much maligned Add and Lennon starting them all.

We beat Fergie's United with Friedel in goal.

We beat Inter with Crouch up front.

We got beat by QPR with Modric, Bale and Lennon on the pitch.

Terrible article.

Little useless Lennon started them all.

Like he did in the majority of our exciting teams or games

If Lennon starts on the right I'd bet money we'd see results improve.

I'm sure there would be another reason in your eyes though.

Proof is in the pudding, we will see

Lennon scored 1 bloody goal all of last season, and he's the answer? He's just not effective anymore.

Yet he is consistently involved in sides that score goals.

Crazy eh? Anyone would think football teams have 11 players who contribute in different ways

Charlie Adam and Downing had amazing stats, what a shame we never signed them and Liverpool benefitted

Lennon was poor when he played last season, we all thought it. Even in the 4-4-2's he played under Sherwood, he was often anonymous. The days of him using his pace and attacking the byline seem to have gone.

Say what you want about statistics, for someone who plays in a forward position to contribute so few goals and assists, it's not been good enough, and there's a reason Poch doesn't use him much.

I don't think you can look at performances and results under Poch and use it as a gauge for faults in players he leaves out

You do know with the current set up we've been averaging under 3 shots a game at home?

And lost four of six.

If you want to look at stats, they are pretty damming.



People are always saying how narrow we are, how predictable and how everything goes through the middle. Yet Lennon isn't even given a thought.

He doesn't even have to create chances or score goals., just his presence on the right would stop teams being able to play so narrow as they know He can cause damage, and free up a bit of space for our goalscoring midfielders and strikers to actually score goals, or at the very least have a few shots.

Could it possibly be any worse than it is?
