Match Thread | Spurs vs. Man City (26/02/25)

[Millennium]

Best performance rvrt for Doku 10/10. We should have been 4/0 in the first half. Wasted many easy chances.

 

[Bald fraud]

Hopefully we won’t regret the missed chances could be 3-4 up doku has been outstanding!

 

[LWashington]

What’s happened to the sideways, backwards, sideways walking football?

It's sat on the bench.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

This game should be over.

Nunes is a really good crosser but a horrendous passer. He seems to have a total inability to get the right weight on the ball along the ground.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Great half in everything but the scoreline. That should be game over beyond even one of our capitulations. How is that 1-0?

Doku and Nunes have been brilliant. Doku should have had a hattrick of assists inside 30 minutes but for poor finishing. Hes laid 2 on a platter. Marmoush needs to up his work rate, doing his best foden impression.

Only tweak I'd make is either swap nico and kovacic or preferably jusy sit Nico next to kovacic, we don't need him in the 8, he's not adding anything to it and if spurs move it fast enough second half there's gaps in our middle. No need to create the risk, just have them both sit and tighten it up. Just need to take chances it's been a very good half.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Stunned people are having a go at Nunes. He has been excellent. Yeah a couple of misplaced passes but he’s been involved in everything. Working really well with Sav.

 

[robbieh]

Finally Pep gone with a style to suit the players at our disposal. Probably as he realised if we carried on with our passive style it would put CL qualification at risk.
We might not win but we look much more dangerous.

 

[Gaz76]

Creating lots, just need to convert a few and jobs a good un, doku been great, think Nico will be decent when he learns where to be, he's been caught a few times tonight

 

[Brewster's millions]

Our wastefulness is off the scale.

Piss easy chances spurned, easy balls overhit, dwelling on the ball and not getting the cross in.

Spurs can’t be that bad again in the second half so we need to get the next goal.

 

[spiny]

Better performance all round. City look balanced with lots of energy. Should be 3 or 4 up but lots of positives.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

Sad to say but we look better without Foden and Rico at the moment.

And we sorta look better defensively. It's almost like after that humbling by Liverpool's low energy but very compact and physical defense.. we've adopted parts of it to make up for our non existent pressing.

 

[MMA]

Not even hyperbole this time, absolute sitters.

Serg would have had a hatrick tonight..
;-)

 

[Goater=Legend]

Nunes has played well, criminal that he put so much weight on the pass but that shouldn't ignore the rest of the half.

 

[Gabriel]

Played well in defence and on the wings, save for some final balls, but Haaland and Marmoush need to link up play far better.

 

[oldius]

Good half.

 

[Dialog]

Doku has been a live wire. Electric.
The number of sitters missed, hope they do not come to haunt us in the second half, since we are notorious of capitulating in the 2nd halfs.

 

[bluke]

Seeing Nunes in City colours fucking traumatizes me.

 

[Phoenix900000]

Should be 0-4 up

Poor finishing

 

[Dicko69]

Doku does not like sitting on the bench and the way he's playing he's making sure he doesn't

 

[Beanhead]

Strong first half.. shame though should be 3-0 up and home and hosed.
