It's interesting that so many Spurs fans think they know better than Conte when it comes to tactics, despite his pedigree and many years of experience at the top of his field. I often read comments suggesting that if we just play 4-3-3 or play more attacking football we'll suddenly start dominating every game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We would have more of the ball. Nothing wrong with that is there? Conte is just a modern Claudio Ranieri. Defensive minded and do not concede first. Not knocking it because he has been successful but lets not pretend he is some tactical genius or anything. He is still fruitcake. His brand of football is boring as hell and I love him 🇮🇹
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So one can only be a tactical genius if they play attacking football?

Did not say that. Forget labels like Tactical Genius ect. I just prefer to watch a better brand of football which is more possession based, but I do appreciate what Conte is trying to do. It has been successful else where so let him try it here.
I will take a boring three points every day over an entertaining loss or draw. Nothing wrong with wanting attacking free flowing, winning football but Conte has to change the mentality of the club, not just the team so I will accept his brand of football.
We do score some good team goals on our day. He has not even been at the club for year but the progress is there to see so lets see where we end up. No harm in having a moan though 🙂

Load of faackin rubbish.
343 vs 433 so how are we over run in midfield?
Anyways, those formations last about 1 minute.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because 2 of our 4 are wingbacks, so hugging the sideline.
Where as the opponents 3 are central vs our central 2.
Does this need explaining?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
oh yes, and they stay there like pegs in the ground, fixed, do they?
And you don't see Kane running around in midfield?

I'm short.... 343 is very italian/ defense first ! you can win Serie A playing that way but i cant see it working in todays PL... all teams carry an attacking threat and those that don't will have so much of the ball eventually they will catch a break... personally i think we are better suited to play 433 especially with an new CB to go with Romero.... Our front three speaks for itself (any combo) & a MF of PEH, Bissouma and Bentancur has a nice balance.....id be ok with Royal, Romero, Dier and Perisic at the back.
I know the results have been good since Conte arrived but i don't love watching us.... The likes of Liverpool, City, leeds. brighton & arsenal are a far more enjoyable watch than us... We're drab and overly defensive... the first halves of all three games have been crap... can't keep relying on a HT b0llocking from Conte every week.... try getting the formation right from the start and play with some positivity and be on the front foot.... We'd hammer a lot more team than we currently do

I'm sure he'll appreciate the helping hand
Let`s be fair this kind of football under Nuno would have been unacceptable, but because it is Conte it is OK.
Yes Spurs are getting results, but the football, especially first halves is carp.
I am also with Ted, basically formations go out of the window as soon as a ball is kicked. Players are not static objects, they do actually move around.

Spurs are top scorers in the league since Conte joined
a bad first half away at Stamford bridge and then again after a slow start in the infamously slow starting 12:30 kick off games does not deserve this type of panic from certain posters.
It's as if winning football is not enough for some...are we really that fecking entitled that this regime will never satisfy some who are bored by watching Spurs winning and scoring loads in the last 6 months. A couple of poor halves at the start of the season and dummies are being spat out. I dispear of some of our fanbase

Not disputing that Edbo, and a lot of that was last season. This season whilst they have been scoring, the first halves in all three games have not been good.

Not sure any are saying that. Don`t exaggerate. We are all happy with the results. Just want to see a bit more action from the start of matches. Supporters, like myself, pay good money to go to watch football, we do also want to see some better stuff for the whole 90 minutes from time to time. Is that to much to ask?
Teams are going to turn up, pack the mdield and try and stop us playing. Its not a recipe for open flowing football. Get used to it
