Desire to join the badge still matters more than the move
I dont want players who dont want to come to the club, period.
Mikel Arteta stresses desire to join a team matters.
Thomas Frank says Spurs must back the fantastic badge.
Spurs struck a deal with Crystal Palace for Eberechi Eze.
They believed the player would sign too.
Arsenal swooped in to gazump them and set a 67.5m move.
If it is a dream move for Eze, Spurs would rather forget the episode.
They also failed to land Gibbs White in July.
Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison are out long term for Spurs.
The focus now is commitment, intensity and rhythm on the pitch.
Tactics come from attitude and tempo, not fancy systems.
We watch pace grit and rhythm in every drill.
TLDR
- Desire to join matters more than the badge at Spurs.
- Arsenal sprinted ahead, forcing Spurs to sharpen recruitment and tempo.
- Palace keep their edge; Spurs must prove rhythm on match day.
