He has changed the vision of the training for everyone." "I left them to face the situation and they showed me to be really good people, top men. Sonny has whipped one in with a load of pace and when you are feeling good, it comes off you and goes in, but really proud of the boys. "I have to be honest, it was really, really difficult for us to be focused on the game because what happened in the last three days was incredible. "But I'm really proud of my players. I knew that the situation was really problematic after the game against Frankfurt.

Tottenham moved back within three points of Manchester City in the Premier League table after the 1-0 win vs Brighton.

Harry Kane scored the only goal of the game at Brighton, a glancing header in the first half, and pointed to the sky in subdued celebration, in memory of Gian Piero Ventrone, who died suddenly last week at the age of 61.

Spurs manager Antonio Conte reveals why he lined up with a two-striker formation against the Seagulls last night.

Switching to a two-striker formation will mean sacrificing one of Spurs’ four exciting forwards unless the Italian chooses to play one of them out of position. Conte did briefly shift back to a 3-4-3 in the second half but it was for a very small duration. “I prefer in this game to start with two strikers because in this moment we have injuries. The formation that Conte uses at Spurs has received a lot of attention in recent weeks. The Mali international had a fairly decent game but did not do anything spectacular. Last night against Brighton, Conte went with a 3-5-2.

Liverpool wanted to sign Yves Bissouma this summer but could not beat Tottenham to the former Brighton midfielder, a report claims.

And the fact The failure to sign Bissouma and other targets and a host of injury problems – including now Arthur – have kept the issue in the spotlight for the wrong reasons. In the end, they signed Arthur Melo on loan from Juventus on deadline day. The revelation adds Bissouma’s name to the list of potential players Klopp was referencing when he confirmed in the summer that Liverpool were rejected by one of their targets. [according to The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/3667440/2022/10/08/yves-bissouma-tottenham-brighton/), Liverpool did indeed go after the 26-year-old in the most recent transfer window. [he is now out injured for up to four months](https://www.teamtalk.com/liverpool/arthur-melo-injury-update-surgery-jurgen-klopp-january-transfer-plan) has added to the criticism of Liverpool’s recruitment.

Liverpool were reportedly keen on signing the Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Yves Bissouma during the summer transfer window.

The 26-year-old has a lot of time to adapt to Conte’s system and prove himself to be a success at the London club. On the other hand, Manchester United plugged the defensive midfield-shaped hole in their squad with the signing of Casemiro, but the Brazilian is yet to adapt to his new surroundings. Both clubs could use a quality defensive midfielder right now and Bissouma would have been an excellent acquisition for them.

Graeme Souness has claimed that Tottenham proved their new-found ability under Antonio Conte to grind out wins with the victory over Brighton.

“That isn’t going to happen in a year. You’ve got the right man in charge and with the correct support, he’ll do very well at Spurs.” “I think Spurs are going in the right direction. “They showed a bit of steel again, this is why they are quite different under this manager. I think they’ve got a fabulous manager, and the supporters have to be patient. He is a manager that you will fall out with, he is a manager that pushes the players all the way to the line and I think he gets the most out of players.

Defeat in Roberto De Zerbi's first home game in charge may have been a disappointment, but the the Sunday papers contained plenty of praise for Albion's ...

The defeat ended their unbeaten run at home but there's a clear sign of how De Zerbi wants to play that will be encouraging for Brighton fans.” “Lewis Dunk seemed to turn to the gasping Brighton fans at one point in the first half, calling for calm after more high-risk passing at the back. Lloris was required to leave his goal and make a brave save at the feet of Brighton substitute Kaoru Mitoma. Mitoma was excellent last week too when he roasted Trent Alexander-Arnold on the far side of the Anfield turf, having a big hand in Leandro Trossard's hat-trick goal. “De Zerbi tipped Danny Welbeck for a shock England recall last month despite the veteran forward failing to net at all this term. It was only a couple of inches too high but Dunk grimaced as if he thought he ought to have hit the target. Until then, in Roberto de Zerbi’s first home game in charge, they had been limited to a couple of brisk attacking moves and a Danny Welbeck shot, flashed low across goal and wide from an angle. Hugo Lloris made saves to deny Moises Caceido and Welbeck, and Solly March fizzed a shot wide from just outside the penalty area. “Mind, it wasn’t easy: the fact is, for much of the second half they defended the lead as if their lives depended on it. Matt Barlow of the Mail on Sunday also found plenty to appreciate in Albion’s display. Welbeck tried to go the old fashioned way of simply charging forward. Pivotal incidents, individual performances and the general play of the team all got good write-ups from different writers.

Glenn Hoddle has shared that Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane provided him with an injury scare during their win over Brighton.

But he put his ankle there and hopefully he will be okay.” Hoddle added: “Particularly the ankle (area). But he was putting his body on the line there.

Diaz issued a walk and got the first two outs of the eighth before giving way to Adam Ottavino, who got the last out of the inning but allowed a run before exiting after he issued a bases-loaded, two-out walk to Manny Machado in the ninth. Mets starter Jacob deGrom allowed the two runs on five hits -- including a game-tying homer by Trent Grisham in the third and a game-tying RBI single by Profar in the fifth -- and two walks while striking out eight. After a disastrous loss in Game 1 to the San Diego Padres and on the brink of elimination, the New York Mets bounced back on Saturday night, walking away with a 7-3 win in Game 2. But the embarrassment that Jordan has to deal with and that this team has to deal with, this organization has to deal with. The Mets sent nine batters to the plate in the bottom of the inning. Goodell did not take it as a joke and said that is part of what the NFL is trying to do. He missed the club’s Week 3 loss to the Broncos, and while he started the Niners’ Week 4 victory over the Rams, he was forced to leave that game in the fourth quarter. The 49ers presently boast the best defense in the league in terms of yards per game, but their DL depth is about to be tested in a big way.

Sky Sports pundit Andy Hinchcliffe has criticised Yves Bissouma for the yellow card he received for Tottenham against Brighton.

And it is a packed schedule ahead of the club. Certainly, Hinchcliffe felt that it was a baffling error from Bissouma. So it was a real mistake from the 26-year-old. It was however, not the best showing from Bissouma. Bissouma was handed a golden opportunity at the Amex Stadium. And he picked up a needless yellow during the first-half.
