IT Tottenh seems to be a small point in the story of the increasingly volatile season of money, in which success seems only to buy temporary breathing space and the shock immediately dumps for any momentum, but it is he who speaks of the fear of revelation among the fanbase.
What does Harry Kane make of it all? The answer is that we don’t know and that’s because the team’s amulet stops talking to the media.
This is not to sound like a journalist’s mess. The reason he mentions it is that he is out of character. In every season of his career so far, Kane has regularly given pre-match or post-match ideas. Essentially, it’s a good block that is happy to connect with supporters through the press even in difficult times – which is always a sign of character.
No more The matter was brought to light when Kane took over media duties during the international break in November, which is very unusual for the England captain. And he’s moved that way back to the Spurs. The affected cases given to journalists have been affected by the epidemic, but this does not pass the can. Surely he will have to break the cover during the upcoming international window?
It is impossible to ignore the suspicion that Kane has kept a low profile, as he does not want to put it in place, to face questions that he may struggle to answer honestly. Or, more precisely, a specific question. He is the one who has tracked it down in recent seasons but now press with more urgency and discomfort. With his 28th birthday coming up in July, does he think he’ll have to leave Spurs to fulfill his ambitions?
The condition of the club is such that cans are not for sale. Moreover, with the contract until 2024, the chairman, Daniel Levy, is in control. Everyone knows that dealing with Levi is practically signed in blood. But, at the very least, Kane had plenty to ponder as he stepped into the Europa League’s Dinomo Zagreb’s extra-time exit on Thursday night after 120 soul-cleansing minutes. Ditto, Jose Mourinho.
There’s a reason the crisis always comes to Mourinho faster than other managers. That’s because the result with it often seems like the only thing. Mourinho brought the trophy straight to the clubs and then left. It probably makes no sense to form a team for the long term with young players. At Spurs, he has lent most of it.
The style of play is designed to win first and entertain the second, although this is honestly optional. Mourinho’s way of analyzing the match is clinical. It does not worry about occupation statistics, areas of action or expected targets. For them, it’s all about big opportunities created entirely. If his team can do it once or twice at the right time – and, ideally, score – then nothing else matters.
The upshot is that when the result isn’t there, Mourinho has done little to fall back and when the trend isn’t there, either, like Zagreb and in Sunday’s derby defeat at Arsenal, it leads to questions about him. The end of the road has been reached.
Kane remained silent on Thursday night but the captain, Hugo Loris, did not. In a searing interview with BT Sport, he expressed his frustrations and two things came out. First, Mourinho’s message was clear to attack Dinamo and not sit back on a 2-0 first leg lead. “But it happened,” Lloris said. And secondly, there are players who are mainly out of the team, who are probably not giving their all because they are dis-obsessed.
To borrow the word Mourinho used after the Arsenal game – and the responsibility of the liability has been left to only a handful of the Divine.
“One thing is to come in front of the camera and say: ‘I’m ambitious,'” Loris said. “It simply came to our notice then [it] To show every day in training sessions and every time on the pitch. If you only follow the team when you are in the starting XI, it causes the team big problems because you get paid. We had a great moment in the past because we can trust the unity in the team. Today, I’m not sure about that.
“There is an influence on the bench, pushing others. Same in training sessions. Everyone should be ready to help the team when the moment comes. Don’t just stay on the sidelines and complain. ”
It is very worrying to think that Mourinho’s message is not being received because the players don’t listen or take him to the extreme, they don’t want to hear him; They don’t want to play for him. When that happens, it only leads to one thing.
It’s basic to manage the team instead of the starting XI and it’s an exciting feeling when the reserve can move forward. Witness Thomas Tushel rejoiced and everyone at Chelsea rejoiced as Emerson Palmieri made the 89th minute option in Wednesday night’s Champions League win over Atletico Madrid. Every player has to find inspiration from within but it is the manager who sets the tone.
The Spurs go to Stun Villa on Sunday night in the Premier League, but the game Mourinho has spread in his diary is the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City on 25 April. To win – although at the moment it seems unlikely – and he would have delivered again. Is that enough, especially if the Champions League qualification was to get out of the club again?
And so the stress bubbles. Ken wants more than this, so does son Hang-min, who has yet to sign his new covenant, even levies, and everyone does. The reserve goalkeeper was left on Hart when he was forced to apologize for a post he had mistakenly sent from his Instagram account, providing a moment of relief. “Job is done,” he read in the wake of the 0-0 defeat against Dinamo. If only.
