TACTICAL DESCRIPTION (a champions suggestion)
************************************************************************************
Primary Formation w/keyplayers
From todays term of ballpassing - style I would recommend
vertical <>. Where passing will be most frequent on the middlepitch.
I've put on to options where manager Jose Mourinho can choose where the ball should be passed to look for further oppertunities.
To explain this suggestion further, I've based G. Lo Celso as the key playmaker for an offensive based <>.
For a defensive approach, I've would recommend T. Ndombele to be the defensive playmaker.
************************************************************************************
The difference betweeen these two playstyles and playmakers is that an offensive tactic is based on leading the progression of the early build up in the match and to score goals early with high ball possesion precentage.
The defensive playstyle is mostly counter attacks. Which will be based on the traditional passing style of Spurs. <>.
Where patience and mainting position/lead is in focus.
Arrows shows movements with and
without the ball;
- offensive runs when Spurs have gained ball possesion
- defensive runs without the ball.
(Arrows going backwards are meant as defensive runs and player without defensive runs goes back to their respective position and follows
rest of the team to press while still maintaining position.

PLAYER INSTRUCTIONS
************************************************************************************
Early Game
Hugo; will mostly pass to Toby and sometimes to Davinson. Seldom go for counter longballs - only if the oppurtunity is there. If so to, Dele, Heung-Min or "Hurricane".
Toby; will focus his passing to Tanguy or can seldom rotate the ball to Giovani. The same goes for Davinson. The Right and Left backs never leads the ball in this stage. Only to support and create an illusion for flank play.
Tanguy; passes the ball to mostly Giovani where he is always ready to pass the ball to Heung-Min or Dele.
When Giovani; has the ball, Heung-Min always goes for wide play and Giovani follows. Most of the time with only one touch(direct pass). Sometimes relocates to intercepting Dele.
When Pierre-Emile has the ball; Heung-Min will be going for central position outside 16 m mark. And Giovani goes offensive. Most of the time, Pierre, passes the ball to Harry for him to shoot. In this stage Harry can also look for Dele to support him or Dele can finish it by himself. Heung-Min will try to pick the ball up if lost or go for second finish.
When Dele has the ball; he always looks for Harry for him to finish.
IMPORTANT note. Only when Pierre has the ball can Dele make the run to finish it by himself.

SUBS AND CHANGING TACTICS DURING A MATCH
************************************************************************************
Subs may start depending on the first 11' players condition or if Spurs are a clear favorite from 1.00 to 1.70 in odds. IMPORTANT note; only one young player at a time for an important match. If there is injuries replace with as many as you can.
<>
Subs list; notes and comments:
- Joe. H. Keep him 97 - 100% matchfit
- Matt D. Subs with Serge and can start in "home and away"
- Ryan S. Subs with Danny and can start in home or odds are low
- Juan F. Subs either with Toby or Davinson. _________||_________
- Moussa S. Subs regurarly either with Pierre or Tanguy. May also start
- Steven B. Subs with either Giovani or Alli and can seldom start
- Jack C. Subs either with Heung-Min or Harry.
Important notes; replace Joe H. with Lucas M. if there is a risk for injury or if needed. I personally would have Lucas M. on the bench rather than Joe because of position. Lucas would sub either Giovani or Dele together with Steven B. to go for wing play style on both sides.
I would personally retrain Lucas for left wing too. Just in case.
In this stage Heung-Min will always go for central play outside 16m mark.
Last but not least; If both playmakers are subbed then go for "park the bus" tactic with counter wingplay and Harry as main <>.
SPURS FOR THE WIN!
