Sure, that's the tactical style in theory but look at how much PEH gets into goal scoring positions. He literally has a good chance every other game. Imagine that chance against Liverpool falls to someone more capable. City and Liverpool win a lot thanks to VVD, Henderson, Rodri etc. chipping in with crucial goals.
There's a lot of potential points waiting for us if we can find such a player.
TBF to Bissouma, his attacking numbers could go up quite a bit with out front line being on the end of his passes, and he could get on the end of a lot too.
If we’ve signed him then I guess he’s in the clear from the allegation?
A crazy amount of steel and industriousness in this midfield of PEH/Bentancur/Skipp/Bissouma if we're settling on 3-4-3, I think we are going to be too much to handle for many teams next season on sheer physicality.
Give Don Fab credit for turning Winksokko + gio + nbelly to Skipp, Hojberg, Bissouma and Bentacur in 1 year.
Central midfield has gone from our weakest area to the one of the strongest - and I don't think we're done there yet.

I've had a quick browse through some non-spurs forums, Bissouma deal definitely made a bit of splash. Good indication that it's not just us in our Spurs bubble who rate him.
Fab deserves his props, but Skipp & PEH were already here. The latter made 53 appearances that season.
How do you say his first name?
Like "eaves" or "eve's"
Take shots this is his only flaw, he will trouble the fans more than the keeper.He passes the ball forward, runs at players, AND takes shots??
A perfect example of how to negate the oppo's best player through rotational fouling
My memories are of us scoring our chances and Brighton screwing up theirs (no surprise there).
Glad to be itk on this.
It’s pronounced “eve”. No ‘s’.
“Adam and Yves” is pronounced the same as “Adam and Eve”.
Or like Yves Saint Laurent.
No it isn't. The S is silent. It's more like Eeva, with just the slightest pronunciation of the a

We raced into an easy 2-0 lead. Had about 10 minutes where they scored and we looked a bit shakey. Made it 3-1 with chance either side of the 3rd goal.
We also easily won 2-0 away to them.
