This is one of the best football conversations I’ve ever heard. Two supremely informed people talking about tactics, philosophy, and the nature of the sport

Bonus @theextrainch.bsky.social Episode The Spectre of Spurs pod.link/1337670733/e... I sat down with @jonmackenzie.bsky.social to discuss his book 'The Spectre of Pep' and Tottenham's role within the tactical meta past, present and future.

and that hasn't stopped him from being maybe the best player in the world this year.

Similarly, perhaps, there's an (unfair) narrative about Kane in semis/finals that could be effecting his performances in them truly. What I mean to say is that Harry Kane, as an example, is highly susceptible to taking on both a winning and a losing mentality

When Harry Kane (due to team form, injury etc.) went a couple of Augusts without scoring and there became a narrative about it. That narrative, I believe, significantly impacted his performances in following Augusts.

When Jermain Defoe told Harry Kane that he's more likely to score a goal if he just missed the last one (statistically false) he believed it, it stuck with him and I think it still helps him to this day.

To get better at winning we need more practice

Nakedly: the very second Arsenal won the league there simply did not exist a punishment for Man City (or Chelsea) severe enough to satisfy my bloodlust.

Nathan is so starved for goals to review he’s turned to shots. Help him out, Tottenham.

Watching back the Liverpool game I think our current issue (scoring goals) is going to be very different from our future issues.

A funny newsbit about my silly little football club's unwanted (but loveable) player. A potentially industry-shaking legal case.

1. The Richarlison and Ndiaye deals are absolutely, completely separate deals, separate negotiations and Definitely Not a player swap. 2. One falling through means the other can't happen.

... also a whole bunch of coaching work on minor details. Details in the parts of the game that, historically, De Zerbi hasn't shown that much interest in. Settled defence, advanced possession, set piece defence, etc

vs Brentford and Newcastle. Some nice moves and decent spells but 0 points. In a league and with a playstyle where control isn't really an option, how do Spurs become consistent across 90 minutes? Yes fitness and personnel but...

Could maybe be Bergvall as the 10. Would also be cool to see Tel and Moore switched.
