‘I’m not going to lie’: Michail Antonio makes honest admission about Tottenham this season
Tottenham Hotspur have had a successful season for the most part, and they remain in contention for a Premier League top-four berth.
Last season, a managerless Spurs team finished seventh in the league, and the future did not appear promising.
However, Ange Postecoglou immediately drew Tottenham back into contention and turned things around early in his stay.
Spurs were once seen as possible dark horses for the championship, and although few expected them to maintain their form, they are still in contention for a European finish.
Tottenham’s style of play has also stood out this season. Tottenham are a very different prospect than they were under Antonio Conte.
Tottenham have become more daring, swashbuckling, and proactive under Postecoglou, making them a far more exciting watch for supporters and neutrals.
West Ham United striker Michail Antonio and Fulham captain Tom Cairney have both expressed their opinions on Spurs’ style of play this season.
Antonio stated on the most recent edition of The Players’ Channel: “I’m not going to lie, how they play is insane. It has quality.”
Cairney remarked, “It’s exciting.” As a fan, seeing him instead of Conte is a significant upgrade.”
It’s encouraging to hear opposing players praise Tottenham’s playing style. Even if Spurs’ recent performances haven’t been stellar, they demonstrate they’re on track.
Daniel Levy mentioned Postecoglou’s “fast, attacking style of play” in the opening phrase of his statement announcing his hiring last year.
This demonstrates how vital it was to find a manager who played ‘the Tottenham way’, and everything should fall into place over the next several seasons as the roster develops, both in terms of new additions and existing players becoming more acclimated to the style of play.
