Hoddle claims Spurs lack ‘X-factor’ star for key Postecoglou tactic underscored by ‘abysmal’ facet

Glenn Hoddle has urged Ange Postecoglou to drop one his key Tottenham tactics as they lack the X-factor player to make it viable.

Spurs have now lost seven of their last 11 games under the Australian boss after .

Gabriel Magalhaes scored the only goal of the game from a corner and while Postecoglou s side huffed and puffed they were ineffective in the final third against stubborn Arsenal defence.

For the first time it seems Postecoglou is under pressure and Spurs legend Hoddle has told the former Celtic boss to reconsider his tactics going forward.

Explaining what went wrong against the Gunners, he said on talkSPORT: “The inverted fullbacks worked last season to a certain degree, but I look at Tottenham now and they’ve got some very good players, but…

NFL Futures Predictions Based on Updated NFL SOS Rankings for 2nd Half of 2023-24 Season

While this schedule certainly looks easy right now, there are a few things to point out: (1) the Cardinals should be a little better with Kyler Murray expected to return this weekend; (2) based off his comments after MNF in Week 9, Aaron Rodgers could be under center for the Jets when they take on the Falcons in Week 13; and (3) there s a good chance Justin Fields is playing for his job in Week 17, so that might be a bit of a scrappy Bears team.
