Yes its early to judge, but we’re Spurs fans, this is what we do.
Martin Petrov looked like the real deal against West Ham. His performance and playstyle was an absolute checklist of what we were missing against Sunderland:
- Strong, fast.
- Direct, attacking with both the ball at his feet and with pass-and-move.
- Quality and creative delivery into the boss. He drove in some balls, flicked and chipped depending on what the situation called for. Watching Malbranque continually cut onto his right foot and then float some too-deep ball to the far post over and over was quite a contrast.
- Left sided, but also switched flanks or drove play through the center. Versatile.
- Generally looked the mutts’.
