Despite what some Arsenal fans may think about Lewis-Skelly, Nuno Mendes is the best left-back in world football right now.

I really like Thomas Frank as a manager if Spurs go ahead and nab him off Brentford. Great person and has done a good job building up the Bees over the last 7 seasons.

However, Levy's leash will be far shorter than Benham's. My take remains that Ange should've been given the summer.

#COYS #THFC

man FUCK DANIEL LEVY

Yet another year of the home kit dropping and me choosing to wait for the away and third kits for purchasing...
#coys #thfc

if levy does go ahead and sack ange, i don't think this club will recover, especially if levy stays in charge. he's won our first major silverware in nearly two decades and fans + players adore him. heinous decision if it does happen

#thfc #coys

this final might've just saved Ligue 1

lmao

WE (ALL OF US) need to see Crystal Palace in the Europa League next season

Liverpool have some decent players off the bench. Jones, Jota, Tsimikas, and Bradley are all fairly capable. Nunez counts for something, too.

The point of the "theory" is to say that Spurs' would be in a better position if we had played our starting XI in the PL tat the same rate as other sides.

These numbers provide a world of context as to why Spurs are doing so poorly in the league: Their best eleven has, compared to other sides, played less football in the Premier League. Injuries have absolutely killed us this season, and these numbers back it up.

Liverpool - 70.57 minutes played per game by Best XI - 78.41%
Allisson, Robertson, Konate, van Dijk, TAA, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Salah, Gakpo

Arsenal - 60.38 minutes played per game by Best XI - 67.08%
Raya, Calafiori, Gabriel, Saliba, Timber, Rice, Merino, Odegaard, Martinelli, Havertz, Saka

Manchester City - 54.82 minutes played per game by Best XI - 60.91%
Ederson, Gvardiol, Dias, Akanji, Lewis, Rodri, Kovacic, Foden, De Bruyne, Silva, Haaland
With Ake as “Best XI” instead of Akanji: 51.90 mppg (57.67%)

Crystal Palace - 73.61 minutes played per game by Best XI - 81.79%
Henderson, Mitchell, Guehi, Lacroix, Chalobah/Richards^, Munoz, Lerma, Wharton, Eze, Sarr, Mateta
^Chalobah was recalled by Chelsea midseason, so I combining his minutes with Richards’
Without Chalobah - 70.94 mppg (78.81%)

How does this compare to other teams? I ran this same experiment on four different teams to get a gauge of how other teams approach rotation in the Premier League and how bad Tottenham’s injury crisis is.

which averages out to 1810 minutes per player, and over 36 Premier League games, each player is playing about 50 minutes per game. In another sense, out of the 35,640 minutes of Premier League football played by Tottenham Hotspur, our best XI has only played 55.89% of those minutes.

Guglielmo Vicario - 2070
Pedro Porro - 2520
Micky van de Ven - 950
Cristian Romero - 1416
Destiny Udogie - 1834
Rodrigo Bentancur - 1563
Lucas Bergvall - 1212
James Maddison - 1809
Dejan Kulusevski - 2389
Dominic Solanke - 2119
Heung-min Son - 2037
This XI, accumulatively, has played 19,919 minutes

First, we need to identify the best starting XI. This will be my own opinion, but let’s call this XI the “best”. In the list below is the player and the number of PL minutes played.

Spurs' poor performance in the Premier League this season is largely due to the fact that the best starting XI has relatively played less than other sides in the PL 🧵

not a loss!

only watched the passed 20 or so minutes. what a shit game of football. always happens when we play west ham

#coys #thfc

Eric Dier is moving to Monaco. Wow, wish him the best.

Don't know how beneficial this is for Monaco, though. Singo, Kehrer, and Salisu are all fairly capable defenders and Mawissa is waiting in the wings. Maybe a mentorship and leader-focused signing?
