The strength is in the team balance


Former England and Arsenal centre-back Martin Koewn has been impressed with Tottenham this season and feels Arsenal and Spurs have moved themselves into strong positions. He likes the balance Spurs show and the pace we have out wide, even though our own supporters don't think we have pace. We have a crazy set of supporters at times.

“Their defence is very solid and playing a high line works well. The wingers bomb forwards. Son Heung-min has come on really well and is taking his opportunity. It shows there has been good work in training. 
“Their strength is their balance. The shape of their team gives them a really good platform from which to attack. They have pace in wide positions, their full backs push on and the two central defenders are really comfortable in possession. And they’re doing this without Kane!”
