Reporter Ahn Young-joon = Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League (EPL) has created a new wingback frame through the winter transfer market. Attention is focusing on whether the unique football of coach Antonio Conte, which has a large proportion of wingbacks, can be implemented better.
On the last day of the transfer market, Tottenham signed right-back Pedro Poro from Sporting Lisbon on the 1st (Korean time).
At the same time, Matt Doherty, who can digest a similar position, was terminated, and Jed Spence was transferred to Stade Ren (France) on loan, respectively.
Now Tottenham’s left and right wing-backs are all composed of Ivan Perisic and a prisoner, newly brought in after Conte’s appointment. It is significant in that it has all the ‘last puzzle’ that Director Conte wants.
The two are wingbacks, but they are aggressive enough to be winged in practice. Perisic enjoys the movement of crossing into the center, such as penetrating into the penalty box, and Poro also uses crosses and breakthroughs to record 2 goals and 6 assists in 14 games this season. 온라인카지노
This is a must-have element when coach Conte, who loves the three-back, plays his football. Coach Conte broke the prejudice that the three-back was a ‘defensive tactic’ and equipped it with an aggressive and sophisticated team style, a leader who created a three-back craze throughout Europe. And the core of the football is ‘forward wingback’.
Even after taking office at Tottenham, Conte set a 3-4-3 formation centered on three-backs and wing-backs as Plan A, and used existing side resources such as Doherty, Emerson Royal, Ben Davies, and Sergio Aguilon as wing-backs, but failed to live up to expectations.
In the end, coach Conte signed Perisic before the start of this season, and in the winter, he even brought a prisoner to equip all attacking wingbacks. For Tottenham, who had a lot of regrets in the meantime, it is now a stepping stone to properly play ‘conte table’ soccer.
Tottenham, which is fighting a difficult top-tier fight with 11 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses (36 points, 5th place), including only 2 wins and 3 losses in the last 5 EPL games, is in desperate need of a rebound. Attention is focusing on what kind of game Tottenham will play in the game after the combination of Perisic and POW is activated.
However, coach Conte needs a break after undergoing surgery to remove his gallbladder. Over the next 1-2 weeks, assistant coach Christian Stellini is expected to sit on the bench in place of Conte.
