I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

Tottenham's starting left back is player No. 32, Benoit Asso Hector from Cameroon.

Hector is 26 years old. Before Lao Lei took charge of Tottenham, he was almost unknown. He is 180cm tall and weighs 74kg. He is very fast, but has poor confrontation and poor headers, so when he first came to Tottenham At that time, he had always been a substitute for Lee Yong-pyo. Later, Bell came, and Hector had no chance to play at the left back position.

Until Lao Lei came to Tottenham in the 09 season.

Lao Lei discovered Hector's ability and made him the main candidate for left back. What changed was that Bell was moved to the left winger position.

Such drastic changes not only revitalized Hector, but also revitalized Bell.

While other Premier League teams are worried about the choice of left back, Tottenham's two left backs can appear together and cooperate well, often performing exciting scenes of playing each other out.

However, because the physical confrontation is not strong enough, injuries have always been Hector's nightmare, and they have also limited Hector's upper limit.

But overall, Hector is still good. He is delicate with his feet, very fast, he is more active in forward assists, and he also has a good cross.

Tottenham's starting right back is player No. 22, Vedran Cholluka from Croatia.

Cholluka is 24 years old, 192cm tall and 88kg in weight. He comes from the same Croatian club as Modric.

However, unlike Modric, Cholluka did not play for Dinamo Zagreb. Instead, he relied on his excellent physical condition to land in the Premier League Manchester City early, and then from Manchester City moved to Tottenham.

Joel Luca is an all-around backcourt player. Although he is very tall and heavy, Joel Luca's advantage is definitely not only defensive confrontation. His body is slender, very flexible, and at the same time very flexible. With good foot skills and positional sense, especially at corner kicks, Joelluka can use his strong aerial advantage to defend or attack with headers.

Joel Luka can not only play as a full-back, but also as a central defender and defensive midfielder. He also has a good backcourt cross when attacking.

His only shortcomings on the court are that his speed is too slow, his explosive power is not enough, and his physical fitness is also slightly poor.

Tottenham's starting two central defenders are No. 20 Michael Dawson and No. 26 captain Ledley King.

Michael Dawson is 27 years old. He is 192cm tall and weighs 84kg. He is a fierce tackler and highly confrontational. His heading skills are definitely among the best in the Premier League.

What Michael Dawson is most praised for is his level of commitment in the game. Although Tottenham coached by Lao Lei uses free tactics, Michael Dawson rarely penetrates forward. He firmly stands in his defensive position. Above, is Tottenham's reassuring backcourt gate.

Of course, he is slower than Joel Luca - this is why he does not participate in the attack, for fear that he will not be able to run back if he rushes forward.

As for another defender Ledley King, his reputation is much stronger than Michael Dawson.

Ledley King is a legend who is "loyal to one team throughout his life".

If you are a Tottenham fan, you may not know who Bale is, you may not know who Kane is, you may not know who Son Heung-min is, but you must not know who Ledley King is.

Ledley King joined the Tottenham youth training team when he was very young, and was promoted to the first team with his outstanding performance in the defense. Since then, Ledley King has not joined any team. Other teams.

Starting from playing for the Tottenham first team in 1999, as of the 2011-12 season, Ledley King has played 268 games for Tottenham and scored 10 goals.

By July 2012, Ledley King had played for Tottenham for 7 years and hung up his boots at his most beloved club due to injury. After that, Ledley King became the club's ambassador, helping the club handle some matters involving the team's players.

In 2020, Ledley King returned to Tottenham and became the assistant coach of Tottenham.

Ledley King is 189cm tall and weighs 88kg. He is a very confrontational central defender with excellent positional sense, superb defensive ability and a calm mind.

Ledley King mainly plays as a central defender, but can also play as a defensive midfielder.

However, in Lao Lei's free tactical system, there is basically no concept of a midfielder. The entire Tottenham team adopts a "cutting melons and vegetables" offensive mode, and there is no need for a midfielder.

In fact, when Ledley King made his debut, he was very fast and could even keep pace with Henry, the King of Highbury.

Henry once commented on Ledley King, saying that Ledley King is the only Premier League defender who can intercept from his feet without fouling.

Considering Henry's status in the Premier League, this evaluation is extremely high.

Unfortunately, Ledley King was not born at the right time.

When Ledley King was not seriously injured and was at the peak of his career, Tottenham's overall ability was not good at that time. But when Tottenham began to embark on the road to recovery, loyal Ledley King But because of his old age and knee injury, he was unable to go with Bai Baili.

Ledley King's serious knee injury occurred when he was 19 years old, the first time he started a game in his career. At that time, just 30 seconds into the game, Ledley King collided with the opposite player. At that time, Ledley King felt a lot of pain in his knee. However, Ledley King was too young at that time, and he had been on the bench for more than half a year in the Tottenham first team. It was not easy for him to get his first If he had the opportunity to start the game and asked to be substituted after 30 seconds of playing, not to mention the head coach would frown, and he himself would not forgive his own cowardice.

As a result, Ledley King gritted his teeth and played the entire game, but the price was that right after the game, he was in so much pain that he could not stand. He was eventually sent to the hospital for surgery, where he recuperated for 6 weeks and regained his regular rotation position.

The biggest impact was not the loss of his rotation position at that time, but the knee injury this time, which affected his life and prevented him from becoming a world-class central defender.

Therefore, this is also fate.

Finally, Tottenham’s starting goalkeeper is No. 1, 30-year-old Brazilian Xiulileo Gomez.

Gomez is 190cm tall and weighs 87kg. He has quick reactions and is very strong one-on-one. He is a neurotic goalkeeper.

The two most glorious battles of Gomez's career were one when he saved two consecutive penalty kicks with Eindhoven in the Eredivisie, helping PSV advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League, and the other in 2010. Tottenham saved two penalty kicks from former Tottenham striker Darren Bent.

All in all, this Tottenham team's lineup can be said to be very strong, especially in terms of offense. It is definitely a cutting-edge offense.

It depends on whether Southampton's double defensive midfielder can withstand Tottenham's attack today.

At this time, the referee blew the whistle and the English League Cup finals officially began!
