Very interesting signing. While I think he can play the role of a deeper LB in Spurs’ system, I don’t think it’s where he’s best. Maybe a change of system, which to me would suggest Dele’s time is up. https://twitter.com/fabrizioromano/status/1306126825496641537">https://twitter.com/fabrizior...

Maybe on paper lineup as a 433 but the FBs move high to provide width. Would probably be good for Son (gets him closer to goal). Suits the FB’s who are excellent attacking FBs. Imo also suits the CMs, who are better in deeper positions for me as they have little goal threat…

but are excellent at progressing the ball. I’d imagine that midfield would be “too attacking” for Mourinho though, so it’s not likely. Having the progression coming from CMs and having wingers closer means Kane could be higher yet not isolated for once, which I’m sure he’d love.

I reckon on the left especially there could also be a lot of rotations due to Reguilon/GLC/Son all being very versatile. Adds a new element of unpredictability to the team. Personally it’s probably how I’d look to lineup but I don’t think it’s that likely.

Thoughts?
