One way of playing

Spurs looking galvanised. Every player knows their job.. Jose has a team in his own image again.

exactly some "average" signings (apart from bale), but it works, they work together probably the most complete team after us, I think chelsea will be on par with em if not better next season, but you do feel spurs are missing a couple of players to win the league, only will take 1 or 2 injury's

Give it time, the wheels will come off soon enough. This time next year at worst.

For me he is. Matip had one good season ( his first ) then went backwards, his form only improved when VVD came in. The fact people think he is much better than Lovren is no yardstick either. If Klopp thought Matip was better than Lovren he would have got straight in after his injury, instead of waiting for Lovren to get injured to get his place back. For me, neither are good enough for a regular place.

Playing next to the liability that Lovren was didn't help. Players always tend to play better when they are confident. He's a good player. Would be interesting to see if FAB & VVD would be a good pairing

They were just a bad pairing. Lovren became a better player when paired with Van Dijk. As i said earlier, i would like to see those two together.

I actually love us having one way of playing. Considering the way the kids have stepped in while we have all these injuries, we have a style of play so that if anyone gets injured be it the first,under,23,18,16 teams we've a player who can step up and fill in and he knows whats expected of him.
Wenger had the same with Arsenal also the great Barca team were the same.
Going into a game teams worry about us not the other way around and it's worked out well so far with Jurgen so no point in changing.

The trouble with one way of playing is that if other teams figure out how to nullify/effectively play against that way of playing, you could well be in big trouble.

Personally I want my team to be able to mix things up when necessary.

I agree and so does Klopp as we don’t have one way of playing.

We can now go with 3 or 4 attackers, play long and over the last few years we are better at keeping the ball.

When Thiago is back we will improve even more as he is a winner and a great passer of the ball.

It's typical for Jose's teams to look good in their second season. Then in the third season the Wheels fall off somewhat.

If Spurs are going to achieve anything under Jose, history suggests that this season is the time. They have to be better than us, better than City and better than Chelsea. I think being better than all three of those is a big ask, but we will see.

I fancy them to get 78-84 points. I don't think they'll win the League though.

I don't think they'll break 80.
