The holes in our recruitment are showing a little in all truthfulness, the aspect of sentimentality and keeping and/or giving players new contracts that haven't quite worked out, or have been usurped by another player
Ox, the legend Origi and Keita should have been moved on long ago, ideally Bobby should have gone for a fee this summer with Mane staying, when our midfield performed far better in Fab's absence and the best it ever has in 19-20, we should have immediately been looking to move Fab on and sign the type of No6 hendo had proved worked far better for our system
We've been too sentimental and kept too many players who didn't work out or another player showed we could be better without on for too long, in midfield especially, Keita, Ox and Fab should have been gone, not given renewals or pay increases after 19-20 and honestly, we shouldn't have signed Thiago for me, keeping Gini and signing a different type of midfielder who creates from different situations would have been better
I think Spurs could be pushing us harder this season, we'll carry on flogging a dead horse in Fab at No6 and they have 3 better options for that position in Bissouma, Hojbjerg and Bentancur, others have Kante, Rodri, N'Didi, Rice and De Jong who are all better too and we're paying him silly wages based on his level of ability for me
