"That's the problem. He needs to every game change the position. [Sunday] again. Four games here, four positions for Archie Gray. He's an amazing player, but that [constant change] means that something's wrong. Beautiful guy, beautiful player. I didn't know him before so much, so from inside, he has my big respect."
"A feature of Tudor's disastrous four-match tenure at Spurs has been his tendency to put square pegs in round holes, with midfielder João Palhinha and right-back Pedro Porro used out of position in the Croatian's favoured 3-4-2-1 formation."
Igor Tudor intends to maintain Tottenham's back-three formation for the Liverpool match despite injuries to Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and João Palhinha. Archie Gray is expected to play centre-back alongside Kevin Danso and Radu Dragusin. Gray has been repositioned multiple times during Tudor's tenure, playing right-wing-back, left-back, and central midfield. Tudor acknowledged this constant positional shifting is problematic, praising Gray as an amazing player while recognizing the underlying issues. Destiny Udogie is nearing a return from injury and should be available for the Nottingham Forest match. Tudor's four-match spell has been marked by tactical struggles and a club-record six-match losing streak.
