It's certainly on the cards, would be ****ing hilarious.

 

Oh definitely. Leverkusen have been head and shoulders above them all game.

 

The lane got knocked down mate

 

5 point gap if they win I think?

 

Yep and they’ll have played Bayern twice.

 

Just stuck this on.

Scouting our future manager

 

And a generous parting gift from xabi to the Leverkusen fans before coming home.

 

He'll of a gift, they are famous bottlers.

 

Doesn’t play a high quick press. Happy to let Bayern come forward and it’s more about pressing at the right times.

 

Yeh but xabi ain't no ex spurs player.

 

Their style is very different to ours, IF he comes to us tactically it's a big change. When I've watched them it's all short sharp passing through the middle. They don't really go long.

 

The revolving shapes are interesting. , going forward I've seen 343/352, all very compact too not lots of distance from cbs to furthest forward.... without the ball it's been solid too, 10 behind the ball when possessions been lost and quickly into a 532 on the break. Or when they've gone long a 541.

 

You’ve watched them once for about 20 minutes.

 

Wondered why it looked different

Someone should have warned Bayern about #spursy when signing Kane and Dier.

Surely Leverkusen go on and win the league now.

 

Yeah he has them in shape as quickly as possible when transitioning from being in possession to out of possession. Seems that’s the most important thing before pressing or trying to win the ball back. Always loads up on the wings when attacking in the final third.

 

That was a pen for me

 

hmm, hard to say, but I think the decision on the field would've stood either way.
