Think that's why Pep loves relatively small squads. There's never more than 1-2 players not getting regular minutes.


It's the evenness that means he can easily drop anyone on any given day outside of Haaland and Ederson

It's why Pep roulette is a thing in FPL. He could pick anyone in probably 7 or 8 spots and the quality of the side barely drops
 
Baleba could be another Bissouma or Caicedo who aren't as good elsewhere

I don't see Pedro as a striker more of the Son mould. Solanke over Welbeck and Ferguson for the hold up tap in 9

Mitoma or Pedro over Johnson

I'm looking at this to play Angeball too, so the 2nd winger just needs to be a tap in merchant but one who can dribble would be nice. So Pedro would be ideal for that role.

Half agree with the why Brighton's squad have the advantage. It's not the expectations for mine, it's the evenness and lack of egos of it.

Minteh/Adingra/Gruda can rotate and nobody kicks up a fuss.

We have Dragusin well behind our 2 CBs and stories emerge of discontent. Same goes with when one of Sarr, Biss or Maddison drops out of the midfield. And that then means guys like Bergvall and Gray only see mins in a B team environment

We've had our fair share of injures but look at this lack of rotation after 11 league gamss

Total players used: Spurs 22 Brighton 25 (excluding 3 who left late Aug for brighton)

8 starts or more: Spurs 11 Brighton 7
4-7 starts: Spurs 3 Brighton 9
3 starts or less: spurs 8 players Brighton 6 (excluding players with long injury lay offs)
Caicedo has been excellent for Chelsea this season he's in the discussion for team of the year so far.

Pedro isn't a winger. He's a 9/10 hybrid, he's like Jesus but even better imo.
I agree with the angeball thing, Johnson works as the wide st, same way Kulu works as the box to box mid but might not work in the Brighton system. Odobert could be that dynamic second winger behind Johnson but who knows.

I guess the point though is you can easily argue Brighton players into most positions which shows the spurs squad just isn't ready to be a top 4 regular.

I dont think our squad players have a good enough look in to know if they're up to standard though

We signed the championship player of the season, 0 league starts.

We beat Barca to signing Bergvall, 0 league starts.

We signed a championship team of the season Wingback and after attitude problems is back in the fold, 0 league starts

Ashley Phillips and Alfie Devine, highly talented young signings. 0 league starts

Going back further Jack Clarke another

I'm not saying any of them are nailed on starters at Brighton. But under their management and squad builds the 6 of them by now would have at least 1 start between them. And probably 1 of them a semi regular in the side

Yes but that's the difference, Brighton are in 6th and they finished 11th last year. Tottenham finished 5th and are in 10th this year. Brighton manager is hailed as a genius people want ange sacked. The expectations are different. You even said yourself if he doesn't finish top 5 he will be let go, if that's the case you aren't hanging out starts to 18 year olds lightly
 
I want to make it clear, that lack of rotation and a B team mentality isn't a new phenomenon or an Ange problem

It's been that way for us for 10 years

Big reason why I’ve wanted us to actually rotate the kids on the bench.. best way to develop (homegrown) depth

Can’t remember a manager apart from MOU who played the kids
