TBR, a British football media outlet, said on the 30th (Korea time), “The difference between Arsenal and Tottenham is the faith of the manager,” and “Arsenal has proven that keeping faith in the manager helps a lot, no matter what. how hard it is.” He added, “Arsenal is a European champion.” There were times when I was unable to participate in competitions. Finished 8th in a row in the Premier League. However, we kept faith in the coach and managed to become the strong team we are today.’
Also, ‘Tottenham appointed the best coaches in the world, but sacked the coaches every time their performance did not meet expectations. “If Tottenham perform poorly next season, Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy’s patience will be tested,” he said.
In short, Chairman Levy’s short-sighted leadership policy is the problem. It makes sense.
Tottenham lost 2 to 3 to Arsenal in the 35th home match of the 2023-2024 Premier League season held at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 28th.
3 goals were allowed in the first half. They conceded two goals from set pieces and conceded a goal on the counter attack to Arsenal ace Bukayo Saka. On the other hand, Tottenham collapsed in the first half. Tottenham had better possession and control of the game, but lost in the end.
Dejan Klusevski said in an interview with the local media, ‘Arsenal were more refined and smarter.’
This means that the level of maturity as a team is better. Tottenham created a sensation this season with Son Heung-min in the middle, but the time together with the core members of the team was short-lived. James Madison and Mickey van der Pen teamed up this season and took over as starters.
There was still not enough time to bring team chemistry to the highest level.
In addition, Tottenham introduced attacking football by bringing in coach Enze Postecoglou this season. Although they created a sensation at the start of the season, they show their limitations in many ways at the end of the season, when the season is decided. Tottenham is still showing an attractive performance, but is 2% short of championship contenders such as Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool. There is a problem with the competitiveness of the squad, but in the end, the chemistry as a team is crucial by 2%.
Tottenham had brought in world-class players like Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte, but ultimately failed to win the championship. And, it was immediately replaced with a new command tower. There was no opportunity to mature as a team. The media highlighted this weakness. Ultimately, the underlying problem is Chairman Daniel Levy’s lack of a long-term plan. Attention was drawn to this part. Reporter Ryu Dong-hyuk sfryu@sportschosun.com
