This is kind of the thing. Right now Spurs are in the bottom-half of the table.
Have a look at it. They are 11th.
Look at the teams 11th and on down...they are pretty miserable but...Spurs? They are +14 in goal differential after just getting stuffed. That is actually pretty impressive.
If they played some defense they'd probably accrue some more points. Ange's approach is fun and all...but will it work in the PL? He thinks it will long term but I'm skeptical. And, at this point, Spurs aren't going to need to worry about Europe.
They got carved today, okay, its Liverpool, but still. Good coaches adapt to the circumstances that are ahead of them.
