Romero was, by a distance, their best player.
Richarlison is a massive prick. At least Ben White's ****housery has a comedy value.
He really, really is. Nothing wrong with that, of course. Every squad needs an arsehole. Spurs never seem to be short of them.
We have Gabriel. He is becoming a world class irritant- winding up opponents but staying calm himself. While Saliba just quietly gets on with business alongside him
Point is, it makes him a worse player. Whereas White and Gabriel play superbly, whilst doing it. He just runs around like a headless chicken barging into people, sly elbows, etc and not using any of his actual talent. Watching him play for Brazil in the last WC and there's a very good player there as he just plays football.
On another occasion he took down a long clearance with Davies right up his back. He had absolutely no 'give' in the foot to cushion the ball. I watched it a few times and I cannot work out how he manages to control the ball perfectly. It just doesn't make any sense.
Wonderful ball from Havertz.
