What is the point of bringing in someone like Nuno if you're not going to let him re-shape the team at all?
Unless the money was outstanding I wouldnt have taken that job. He's a sacrificial lamb. He's just there to steward this group until management comes up with a plan.
To use one of our favourite Calgary Flames terms....this Spurs team is 'Post Apex.'

Yeah he needs to be able to add some stout ball winning midfield players to play his kind of system. dont know Spurs well enough to know who they have that plays that kind of game.
I was watching the second half of the games wolves played earlier this am and they had very little intent to keep the ball but they just gave Southampton no major openings. I know he went for possession there at times but I think that his comfort zone is locking it down and building from that solid defence and trying to play like that with a bunch of players whose strength is on the ball is a tough slog.
That and Kane looking off the pace is a tough spot to be in.
