A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans have flocked to a post from The Spurs Express, which has relayed news from Alasdair Gold regarding Spurs’ talks with Nuno Espirito Santo.
He claims that the former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss and Fabio Paratici ‘convinced’ Daniel Levy that Tottenham would play exciting football but also be sound defensively.
This has drawn the attention of these Spurs fans, who have had their say.
“Nonsense you don’t listen to a coach’s word about how will play, you look at the evidence of his career and Nuno is Portuguese school, counterattack through and through.”
“The thing is Nuno’s Wolves were amazing with a back 5. As soon as he tried to go more attacking & switched it to a 4, they were awful”
“The same way Jose reinvented himself? Levy is a joke this club is finished”
Do you think Nuno will play attacking football?
No, not a chance
Yes, he will
While Nuno was with Wolves, they played a very certain style of football until he tried to change it before the 2020/21 season to become more expansive.
It is fair to say that it didn’t work as Wolves finished 13th, scoring just 36 goals.
So, we can see why these Tottenham fans are sceptical.
“Are we talking about the same sources that assured us that Poch, Conte, and Fonseca was a done deal? I personally wouldn’t mind Nuno. But these stories are laughable.”
“Im Done. No more Spurs”
“More lies being fed to the fans”
“Leopards and spots come to mind.”
It will be interesting to see what style of play Spurs go for should they appoint Nuno, but many fans are unconvinced they will be playing attacking football.
