    Sanchez in particular is so limited with his distribution. Emerson has shown occasional glimpses - but looks like he's not going to last much longer today.

    Becuase there is no creativity in centre midfield, even a fan like me notices it as a huge weakness.

    Usual Saturday lunchtime game from us. We should give whatever portion of the tv money makes up this slot so we never have to play it! Can never remember us doing well

    Three in the midfield for the opposition really nullifies our front three as we struggle to get it up to them.
    I would be tempted in games like these to go two up top and match up in midfield with Bissouma

    Nonsense.
    The inability to accurately pass at weight to a team mate,
    or hold the ball in a tussle, has nothing to do with "creativity" .

    I was at this game last season and by this time we were 2-0 down already so trying to think positive!

    Disagree from what I’ve seen since Eriksen left and Dele turned to ****. You need someone who can find space in tight areas and get attacks started. The midfielders Spurs have don’t have that in their locker.

    Son has been our worst player, absolutely terrible. His touch has been awful

    Sonny having 'one of those games' again. Very slow start to the season for him.

    Kinda game that requires Richarlies grit and determination to bulldoze a goal for us from what I can see

    Actually it does, as creativity allows players to create pockets of space by themselves

    For example, Bissouma or Skipp can create those openings as they move the ball up the pitch, while Bentancur is more static and Hojbjerg is better at recycling he ball
