Match Thread | Spurs vs Man City (05/02/23)

Rodri is having one of his worst games for us this afternoon.

He is alone in midfield. Lewis cannot play this role and is badly exposed. Alvarez is a passenger. Both need a rest..

 

[blue moony]

Don't know how pep gets the blame for Rodri having a brain fart?..apart from that we've been OK.

We have been turgid

 

[colorado blue]

Cant see us finishing top 2 this season. As pep keeps saying players not playing with any passion. Team has lost its chemistr, nothing is fluid and to make things worse we are making critical mistakes.

 

[malg]

We are fucking boring to watch.

Been boring to watch for a while now.

 

[willipp]

Wank. Not much else to add.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Agreed. What are we playing at

It is coming, kev for Alverez as that cut back ball from Mahrez is wide open for us, Haaland will have a field day

 

[Zenmanc]

He has probably been one of the better players today, I think you need to be looking more at Rodri.

100%

 

[hertsblue]

Not sure why anyone is surprised anymore, we have become stale with zero pace or energy in the team.
Defence changing every single game does not help, add to that a keeper who rarely makes a save. Wingers who have no pace or directness, a slow sideways passing midfield and the entire team cannot find our World Class Striker.
Hopefully enough to win a cup and we should still finish top 4 quite easily but a major reset is needed in the summer with lots in/out

 

[give it to gordon]

Spuds are fucking awful anti football team.
We are really struggling against these sort of teams. They is no fucking space. We cant hit it over the top as both wingers need to turn inside.
Play a right footed winger on the right and a left footer on the left. That makes more space in the middle.

Other than that is a fucking boring game

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

We really are jinxed at this place....if we could just get one goal here surely that will lift the curse.

Just one and the floodgates will open.

 

[madloaf]

Think you're already doing that ;)

It was the capital letters that gave it away

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Swales out.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Shocking first half display, We are so far off our standards it's scary. It doesn't look like a Pep team or a team we recognise at the minute.

Get KDB off ffs

 

[come-on-barney]

Kane is a carthorse

Love to have that cart horse

 

[jaiguruKun]

This inverted full back stuff makes us so easy to counter attack. There is always space down the sides as players are completely out of position. We can't get away with it against good sides. Didn't work in Pep's first season and not working now.

 

[Tomblue]

Akanji isn't good enough for me. How on earth are Laporte and Dias not being given a chance in this team.

 

[vin]

We can’t create without KDB. KDB is on the bench.. struggling with that logic

 

[BlueBanger]

I swear as much as i love pep, if he keeps on wasting the talents of haaland i will be furious with him. By now i expected us to have adapted to him. Also, before anyone says it yes he has to adapt to us too, but we also must adapt to get the best from a generational talent.

 

[eyalluvitt]

Static is the word that comes to mind.

The Croatian left back? I’d take him

 

[heslops barnet]

Peps tinkering is not working this season.



His insistence on picking players who smile rather than who is best is screwing us.

What makes you think Peps doing anything?
