    Levy needs to back his manager

    Frank doesn’t come across like a manager that wastes talent

    Just having someone in that role makes such a difference, but he's great at it.
    Getting him in on loan was a great move. Hopefully Gray's watching every second and learning.

    Squad discipline on-pitch has to be better
    (4 yellow cards on the starting XI is not good) ,
    regardless of the refs.

    Other than that, Pep team being Pep team.

    How many of them were actually yellows, though?
    Johnson definitely deserved his and probably Richarlison, too.
    Romero's was bullshit though and Porro's was just to hurry up the team.
    Bankes had a horrible game, especially failing to send off Trafford in the first half.

    Unexpected!

    Brilliant performance from everyone. My MOTM would be between Sarr and Palhinha.

    But everyone was brilliant. We really do need a couple of more players in this window because there’s no way we can play like this every week without getting injuries.

    Just seen that we've equalised our consecutive clean sheet record from last season.

    The tests for the manager will be :

    1. When to begin serious squad rotation
    (the CL games will hasten that soon enough) .

    2. How low the intensity can be dropped and still
    prevail against lesser opponents (you don't play
    the PSGs and Citehs every week) .

    3. Busparquet.
    The eternal enemy of most Spurs seasons, and one
    that occurs up to two in every three PL games.

    If we are going to compare like with like, Ange won 8 and drew 2 of his first ten games at Spurs, so keep your powder dry.
