  1. I'm so pleasantly surprised by how much the team has picked up Ange-ball. I honestly thought it would take several months for us to successfully transition from the dismal shit that Conte was trotting out to a modern positional play model, complete with intriguingly high defensive line, intense high pressing, inverted full-backs and a single pivot in midfield.

  2. Each year I write about the Premier League's 25-man squad requirement and the implications of the home grown players rule and how it will impact on Spurs' transfer strategy. The home grown player numbers could impact on how many signings we can make, the nature of those signings and/or the size of our squad for the rest of the season.
  3. I am super, super excited about the appointment of Ange Postecoglou but my main (only?) worry is that our squad is not especially well set-up to implement his style. Alongside this, read my Twitter thread in which I explain why I think we need to off-load up to 18 players as soon as possible. The key reason being that we have a two-competition squad going into a one-competition season.

  4. Last night I decided that, in the morning, I would lay in bed with a cup of tea and blog about the current Spurs situation. And then the Julian Nagelsmann news broke.
  5. I just wrote a Twitter thread, but it become long and unwieldy so I've decided to bash out a quick blog instead; apologies if it's a little clunky.
