'It's not about the result, it's about the process, and I want the players on the pitch to perform well.

The new season is about to start and I will also decide who will get the main position based on your form and performance. ”

The two young centre-backs are the most excited and determined to perform well in front of the manager.

But in fact, everyone knows that the two of them are the most difficult, as long as there are no injuries, Vertonghen and Alderweireld's position is unshakable.

On the contrary, the Brazilians, who are quiet on the surface, secretly cheer themselves on.

Alisson joined Tottenham from Brazil not to be a substitute goalkeeper.

After the start of the game, the home team of Seattle took the initiative.

Full-back Yedling crossed from the right and Dempsey's header from inside the box went just wide of the post.

Although it may seem like he came close to conceding the ball, Benjamin saw something good in this defence.

Akanji and Maguire, two young men in their mid-twenties, happen to be one with excellent speed and the other with a tall and strong one.

Defensively, even though the offensive players of the major league teams are more experienced than them, they are not likely to find scoring opportunities for a while.

In the 14th minute, Harry Kane crossed diagonally into the box and N'Golo Kante headed home.

The French midfielder, who is less than 1.7 meters tall, actually scored a header, and Kante looked particularly happy.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't, because the MLS is underway, and in terms of form, the Seattle Sounders should be much better than Tottenham Hotspur in their first warm-up game.

Had it not been for the defender's leakage, N'Golo Kante would not have had a chance to score such a header.

The game continued when Yedlin's cross from the edge of the box was met by Dempsey who fired past Alisson with his right foot.

Danny Rose's goal-line clearance denied Dempsey's must-have goal.

The England left-back was in surprisingly good form, and Benjamin bowed his head slightly and made a note in the small notebook.

Like Kane, he missed the opportunity to the World Cup without being selected for the England national team, and Townsend was also very unwilling in his heart.

In today's game, he was everywhere on both ends of the pitch.

But sometimes being too positive isn't necessarily a good thing.

In the 25th minute, Townsend was fouled in front of his own penalty area, and Seattle took a free kick.

Dempsey's free-kick went straight past the wall, but Alisson was unfazed and saved the ball from the bottom line.

Corners continued to be delivered and chaos erupted in the Tottenham penalty area, with Harry Maguire bringing down a Seattle player.

The referee decisively blew for a penalty.

Alisson didn't bother with Maguire either, and stood nervously in front of the goal line.

Seattle midfielder Pineda faked to fool Tottenham's Brazilian goalkeeper before whipping a spoon penalty.

But he didn't expect the opponent to react so quickly, and the penalty kick, which was not outstanding in speed and height, was blocked by Alisson with one palm.

Benjamin nodded slightly, saving such a penalty is not very capable, but it can also see the potential of Alisson, a young goalkeeper.

Later, he remembered to tell Pat to instruct Alisson well, and Benjamin silently wrote it down in the small notebook.

N'Golo Kante cleared the ball in time.

The failure to score a penalty was an instant blow to the home team's morale.

In the 41st minute, Frank Lampard's powerful long-range shot from outside the box was brilliantly saved by goalkeeper Stephen Fry.

Mane's follow-up shot from inside the box grazed the bottom right corner of the post and into the net.

Two to zero!

At the end of the first half, Tottenham led 2-0.

"It's good, everyone's in good shape, let's come down and rest in the second half."

Midfielder Benjamin made 10 substitutions in a row, with all starters except goalkeeper Alisson remaining on the pitch.

Tottenham's veteran American goalkeeper Friedel is 43 years old this year, and after communicating with Benjamin, he said that he intends to retire at the end of the new season.

Benjamin also graciously agreed to join the coaching team as a player-coach.

After all, in his nearly thirty-year career, Friedel still has his own understanding of football.

By the way, speaking of goalkeepers, does Alisson have a labor certificate?

"The FA has hinted that if we don't appeal for a penalty against Lee Probert, we'll give Alisson the green light to pass Alisson's labour certificate."

Benjamin then remembered that there was another incident in which he was desperate to get the referee who had been against Tottenham in the FA Cup final to be punished.

After so long, I almost forgot about it, but I didn't expect that the results have not come out until now.

Recalling the ugly performance of Lee Probert in the FA Cup final, there are only two situations, either he collected black money and didn't want Tottenham to win, or his ability is really that bad.

In either case, this guy shouldn't be in the Premier League again.

There is not so much black and white in the adult world, and you must always learn to compromise.

It didn't affect Tottenham to win the title anyway, Benjamin sighed.

"Okay, let's cancel the appeal and get Alisson's labor certification.

As a result, even if we didn't pass it successfully, we would have had time to think of other ways. ”

Back on the field, Cancelo, Millin and other new signings who have arrived in the team came on as substitutes.

Tottenham also brought on a number of young players from their own academy, such as Bentaleb, Winks and Kolautiste.

Sandro is on the pitch and hopes that the Brazilian will have fewer injuries this season and contribute more to Tottenham.

Kaboul partnered Vickikovic and Norton replaced Danny Rose.

Some of these youngsters on the pitch are likely to be loaned out before the start of the season in search of more appearances.

Others, they may leave and say goodbye to Tottenham.

It all depends on what level they can show and whether they can satisfy the manager Benjamin and give them a place to stay.

At the start of the second half, Seattle's Cuban midfielder Osvaldo Alonso scored a goal for the home side.

In the 76th minute, Bam Adebayo was tripped by an opposing defender in the penalty area, and the referee blew a penalty.

The Togolese personally took the shot, three to one.

In stoppage time of the game, Seattle substitute striker Bovin's shot in front of goal was blocked by Alisson's sideways save.

In the end, Tottenham defeated the Seattle Sounders of the MLS 3-1 in the first warm-up game of the new season.

'What do you think of their young right-back? Friedel is nearing retirement, and buying a new American player will also help us promote it in North America. ”

Benjamin shook his head, not very approvingly.

"First of all, I think you're wrong, as long as we do well and win championships, then there will be fans all over the world.

On the other hand, even if we have players from all over the country in the team, but we play a mess, it's all for nothing.

And then let's talk about the American youngster, I know that his speed has a strong visual impact, but what about him other than speed?

If you can't defend or pass, then I think it's better to just find a sprinter and run faster than him. ”
