An in-depth video on Conte's Spurs tactics : kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWOpnqF-prFofK8

[@peterchua.ch2106]

Classic illustration of Guardiola's attacking instincts and Conte's tactical brilliance. Spurs play highly effective games against both Man City and Liverpool. That said, City's defensive setup was naive against Son and Kane.

[@akilamperouge960]

but we do not know if spurs will keep up the quality they have when playing against other teams. They may won against them but i don't think they'll be winning the league as chelsea could also be hammering them soon again.

[@laarre2]

@@juned2001 Comments like these are the reason why it's safe to say that Lloris is underrated. His highs might not be as high as Mendy's for example, but his longevity in having been a top 4 keeper in PL for years on end shouldn't go uncredited. And yes, he has the once in a season stinker like against Wolves but that doesn't invalidate the point.

[@pirjakdebbarma2808]

@Bryan714 Maguire also scored yesterday and I can be damn sure if he doesn't start for ManU, they'll still be good. The assist and the runs matters a lot and in case of spurs it's 90% kane and son. They are not god but the players they play with is just too naive standard in comparison to them.

[@pirjakdebbarma2808]

@Bryan714 I didn't said they are better than them. Dude look at the players ManU have. Pogba, bruno, matic, Mcfred still fine, if u talking midfield. And i dont need to list the forwards, they are just top quality. Bentacurr just came this season, and why'd you compare Romero to Maguire like there's Varane . This isn't our point of topic anyways. And spurs can play without romero and still win games. This was the topic.

[@najmussabir6051]

Once Carragher and Neville said "When it's 1 vs 1 situation Ederson isn't better than Mendy or Alisson" It's true then, City spend a huge time in possession and face fewer shots on target and that's why Ederson struggle in the match where he faces so many shots.

Another great analysis from our FMS guru. This game will be studied and dissected by all of Man City opponents for the rest of the EPL season. It is a clinic on how to beat Man City who are always gong to be more technical and more skilled than the opposition. So much to stay about this game. First, it may be seem strange to say this but Man City is very predictable on the attack. Rewatch the game and see how fullbacks - for example Kyle Walker - always pinch in centrally so that wide forwards like Foden and Sterling are clearly instructed to provide width. It obvious that this is what the the team was instructed to do. And it works great if (a) your opponents are weak in possession and (b) you can’t spring counters. But not the case with spurs in that Kane was THE focal point of ALL the counters. The Conte plan? On turnover in the Man City half, find Kane centrally, get him the ball ball so he can centrally run the break because City, with its pinched in fullbacks, is just 3 at the back. More evidence if any were needed, that Conte is a brilliant tactician. Of course, it helps to have a gifted player like Harry Kane to play that role in the counterattacking scheme who can receive high, turn, pass and run to make the attack sizzle. At 3-0 or even a 4-0 win would not have been surprising. I think Pep is gong to have to go back to the drawing board after this one. If, say, Liverpool runs this scheme, and Pep doen’t have an answer, it could be an amazing lost season for his group .

[@peterchua.ch2106]

It's interesting to see that Liverpool also like to run a high line, leave 3 at the back with 1shielding midfielder, and use 5 or 6 attacking players against the opponents' defence. The interplays are different, but the ways Man City and Liverpool play when they have the ball are becoming more similar over the years. Difference is Man City lack a defender like VVD or a midfielder like Kante, Fabinho or the retired Kompany, to break up the opponent's attack. It's probably a mistake not to play wily Fernandinho in front of the defence. So, City is relying on offence being the best form of defence.

[@super_organist]

@@peterchua.ch2106 Right there, city's game is about overwhelming the opposition with their front 5 or 6 and playing in square passes to finish.But if they lose the ball with those players still high and you have brilliant forwards you can always punish.lets face it, they haven't been that great this season, they have scraped through several games with some questionable penalties and it would seem like they have been so reliant on penalties even as good as they can be.Minus all the penalties they have got this season? And they were even gonna get away with the penalty yesterday until Kane came through. Truth is they are nt so imperious this season and it will be interesting to see how the remaining games of the season pan out against counter attacking oppositions

[@truenoae8689]

I agree with you but a 3-0 or 4-0 would be very surprising, spurs would never keep a clean sheet. City had lots of missed shots, hit the post twice, and Lloris made some massive saves

[@paddyrise4487]

You should also be reminded that not a single spurs goal in this game was actually a counter attack goal.

[@NeilOB9]

City got played by Conte’s oldest trick against high pressing teams: play out from the back with a lot of numbers to invite the press, then play quickly and vertically to exploit the space left behind.

You know how girls like to post thirst pics after a breakup to say "look what you're missing"? That's Harry Kane's performance today. Conte probably told him before the match to show City why the extra money spent on him instead of Grealish would've been well worth it. I really wouldn't mind seeing Kane go somewhere in Europe and bag a few trophies. A player of his calibre deserves to always be in the Champions League.

[@user-lq5yx1ke5k]

Conte countered Pep brilliantly, City's defense wasn't set up properly at all and left acres of space. It's a bit weird because City's defense should be used to snuffing out counter-attacks because that is what 95% of teams do against them. Conte is magic and if Spurs stick with him and back him in the summer (big if) he will take them far.

[@rb26benjamin8]

Very difficult to snuff from wide space the same thing happened to liverpool remember they would have to play a flat back 4 to slow down the runners

[@johnjones8855]

Thank You for the analysis bro! I agree, my mate is a Utd fan and I always tell him that you have to get City on the counter because they always play three in the back when attacking, so you need a good false 9 or speedy forwards to take advantage of that to score on them. When they played against Chelsea, Lukaku didn’t do any movement off ball to get open and when he did, he wasn’t getting the pass and that’s why Chelsea loss. United played defensively which caught city off guard in the first half in their derby but City adjusted and they loss in the second half and gave up completely.

[@joyhorta8051]

Look at how Kane movement is like a striker, never be in between cb but drops deep. This is what Lukaku needs to do

Can you please analyze atl vs utd? Please. Take into account the following: Rashford, despite his attributes in general is in really poor form. Once Ronaldo drops deep, the whole formation defeats the purpose. Maguire is a liability because if they go all in to penetrate that 5-4-1 fortress, once Fred loses possession they are exposed af...I just don't know what to hope for in the second leg...I don't see how they can break apart this wall...you must have some brilliant insight and I appreciate them in general, but as a Utd fan, I only really care about Utd.

[@suecli8131]

A conte masterclass

[@Backroads23]

People ask who is the most important player on Spurs? That answer varies on the style and tactics employed by the manager. In this system, it’s 100% Son. When they play this exact lineup vs City or even when it’s with Lucas or Bergijwn on the opposite wing, Son is the pace that makes the counterattack possible. He can outpace every defender in the PL, and it is in that threat, that Spurs can create chances on the counterattack. First 2 goals for Spurs yesterday vs City show this but it’s been true for quite some time. It’s unfortunate however that Spurs have to constantly keep playing this Counterattacking style even against inferior opponents as it’s probably not a good long term strategy (giving up 4:1 time of possession and shots as they did with wolves and Southampton). They really need to play more possession football vs lesser clubs but their personnel doesn’t allow that to happen because their wide players, including Son are not as effective in attacking set defenses in tighter spaces and their midfielders aren’t skilled enough to control the ball for long stretches of time and play it through to the front 3.

[@michaelglynn7010]

Feel like if a team is going to buy Kane they’ll also need to buy Son as well, they just gel so well together like they’re on their own wavelength

[@sinanuluc5143]

City are made of 11 playmakers, and yes including the goalkeeper. But their defenders are not necessarily good at defending, especially against counter attacks. Every other decent counter attack is a goal. That's why Son and Salah are kryptonites of City. Also Ederson is not a great shot stopper. He is second to none with his feet, but in terms of stopping goals, he is "OK`.

But I don’t get it when ever Man City lost a game it seems every other clubs fans and pundits are all happy and celebrating because Man City lost, so many comments when Man City lost and few comments when City wins. , you will see all the sports headlines discussing Man City lost for the whole weeks. But if Man City win games they hardly talk about it. We Man City fans knows very well shall drop points along the line. But let’s see what we have done since from October we didn’t lose any game, winning games after games. Even top clubs across Europe PSG, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea, Liverpool… Juventus, man United, Atletico, Milan, have all lost games along, why is it more bigger news if Man City lost a game? Man City will bounce back stronger. Kudos to our boys they have fought hard since from October winning games. We just lost to a team which we normally struggle against in our previous meetings, and is a big news all over. This shows that many pundits whisper our win and broadcast our lost.

Amazing game to watch, tense all the way through. After Tottenham's loss to southampton and wolves, it looked like they were out of the champions league race, especially with Liverpool and City coming up away, but this result gives them another chance. I think at this point it is between Arsenal and Tottenham for the fourth spot, since they have a lot of games in hand, and are currently neck and neck, with game between them coming up towards the end of the season. I think, and hope, it'll come down to that game who gets the fourth spot, since what a game it would be. North London derby to decide which team gets in the champions league. Then again, its still all to play for, and with Man U getting back in form and Wolves looking really good right now, anyone from 4th to 8th could end up in the champions league next season. Whatever happens, though, it looks like it is going to be very close and the last games of the season will be very tense. Looking forward to it.

City's pressing structure cost them the match. Allowing tottenham cb's time on the ball was not a good idea.

His crosses were just easily dealt with, giving Spurs easy, free opportunities to counter. Last season Spurs beat City at home when KDB started but in the reverse fixture when KDB didn't start City battered them 3-0.

Drop de bruyne in big games? He had goals against both Liverpool and Chelsea this season, crucial goals

@@BubblesChika that's one match,and rudiger injured him,if he had played to the end,who knows,he might have scored a screamer,he has a good scoring record against them afterall

[@BubblesChika]

@@pamoweiberezi5315 One match that cost them the only trophy they needed to win to complete the set. You can't always rely on small moments of quality in football because it isn't sustainable. KDB was having shocking games against Chelsea and Liverpool before the goals just as he did against Chelsea in the UCL final. He just got a goal in each to disguise his poor performances. He didn't in the UCL final and against Spurs here because singular moments like that aren't sustainable

Possession vs Space conundrum once again.

Look at how simple Spur manage too outclass pep Gaudiola , I wish Tuchel will watch this game and play Timo as our own Son every time will play this overrated man city

[@franzreyes6185]

Tuchel did outplayed Pep in the CL final. I didnt watched your games but how did Pep overcame this and beat you twice this season?

[@bellonairesfc5165]

@@franzreyes6185 I will tell u the reason why Pep Gaudiola manage too beat Chelsea twice this season, that Chelsea team has the capability to beat man city 100 time in a row , if like they continue to play the way they play last season, but the signing of Lukaku bring so much distrust to the team and here are the two thing you need to have when playing against man city , first you need have a pacing winger like Timo / son and a striker like Kai or kane someone who can drop deep not someone like Lukaku who will stand like lamppost up front , if you go back and rewatch Chelsea man city ucl final you will see that Timo winner get a great chance too score 2 goal under 10 minute but he missed them , because when Kai drop deep he drag Dias too midfield that leave man city defense expose and Timo make run and got 2 chance the same way Spur play , kane drop deep and drag Dias and son make run behind city defensive and score the first goal .. if Chelsea want too beat man city , Tuchel should bench Lukaku and play Kai and Timo , I can Bet 1m on Chelsea winning 3 goals too new if the manager play Timo and kia

this tottenham can achieve more with a few new signings

[@elbarca223]

Not many teams have exceptional players like Kane. City and Liverpool are gonna fight it out.

[@peterchua.ch2106]

LIverpool have speedy players up front too. So it would be interesting to see how Klopp and Guardiola tweak their tactics when they meet.

[@mr.mantis3578]

spurs will finish 3rd close to second

[@donmosco4285]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃😃 which 3rd ?? Not only 3rd they will even win the league .. they will not make top four even next season they will not smell it ...

[@ogunrombiraphealaa647]

There was nothing tactical about Tottenham game, It's just the same 11 men behind the Ball, You can't measure Conte's progress on the team with that performance, City did all the playing. Will you put your money On Tottenham winning against southampton?? If you can't get a solid yes, So that match hasn't shown Tottenham progress.

[@wawa7.7hd85]

Lol Rodri was on the pitch💀💀

[@hlumangeva3880]

I see Son and Kane still causing trouble for City.

[@leero22]

All you did was analyze the goal scoring situations of spurs but failed to analyze how actually spurs stopped city on their left wing which is their most dangerous side. This is just a fraud channel lmao. Everyone can analyze that by pausing the goal scoring sequence multiple times.

[@bgpiw]

Spurs always use 8-2 tactic againts City, put Kane and Son in front and keep others as deffender. Boring play but in fact Mancity always struggles against teams that use parking tactics.

[@fivehundrediq5212]

The year every team was parking the bus, City still scored 100pts

[@pappy9473]

Tottenham didn't realise the possibilities to hurt Man City during the match. They had a week to study Man City's vulnerabilities. Pep should have anticipated this and respected the dangers Tottenham, could and did present. Conte, no doubt had a Plan B but didn't need to implement it. COYS
