A Coach’s View: Chelsea 0-2 Tottenham — How Spurs Crushed Chelsea With A Honeycomb (Van de Ven’s Best Game, Fernandes, Tel’s Goal & Marmoush’s Role)
OhSoSpurs — The Tottenham Hotspur PodcastShow Notes
What did Spurs do at Stamford Bridge that they couldn't do in August? A Licence coach JJ says it comes down to two things: De Zerbi's ladder and the honeycomb.
Jim and JJ go through Tottenham's 2-0 win at Chelsea player by player: Kinsky's brave sweeper role, why De Zerbi called it Van de Ven's best game under him, Mateus Fernandes in the deeper role, Mathys Tel's second half and his goal, Kudus' work rate, and where Marmoush actually fits in this squad.
JJ puts it on record that Fernandes has "potentially a world class player" in him, and breaks down Tel's goal touch by touch, from the line of the run to the two touches before the shot. Then he explains the ladder and the honeycomb, and you'll want to hear why he thinks it's the whole reason Spurs won.
