Spurs (A) | Post-Match Thread

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Also: Playing with Ferran Torres up top is like playing with 10 men.

No striker in the world misses that chance at 1-0 down.

He does nothing.

 

[Airbags Optional]

Big shit really. I get giving the guys extra time after the summer, but you don’t want to be playing catch up too much. Fern looked exposed today and there was no real structure to our game. Hopefully put things right next week

 

[vmsuhail]

Predicted a loss before the game. At no point during the game did it feel like we would get even a goal. Next.

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

That loss is on Pep

There’s been more than a few now

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

Clearly nowhere near match fit yet, walking around when we’re 1-0 down. Got into a few promising positions when Kev came on but then resorted to hopeful ( or hopeless) punts into Lloris’s hands. Not unexpected but still a real bummer.

Our pre season needs looked at then
Every year we look half fit
Other clubs had players at the euros and copa America too

 

[BlueMooner87]

Maybe its just me, but perhaps we need a striker? You know, somebody who can get on the end of a cross? Head a ball? That kind of stuff… sorry, stupid post… apologies!

I am not sure if kane was playing for us today it would have effected the result.

 

[Gumzy97]

I’ll be worried if we lose to Norwich. Don’t really care about spurs they’ll finish 8th.

 

[BlueMonkey79]

What the fuck was all that walking with ball by Mendy. He did my head in with it.

We got punished again for missing chances. Gonna be a long hard season this season I reckon. Teams have strengthened, and will be a lot harder to beat this season.

Norwich up next. Need to get the 3 points next week

 

[Mancityus]

Son is a big time goal scorer. He turns up and wins the key matches.

 

[nellyonthewing]

Pep is morphing into Southgate .

 

[dctid]

All on Pep no one else yes Mandy was shit as a few others but he persisted with them made the subs too late

we played at a walking pave - the last three losses are all on him and he’s learnt nothing

There is simply no excuse for playing so slow rags, Chelsea, pool and any other teams that plays at a high tempo we will struggle

 

[clarkie_ni]

Kane wants to stay

noway, Kane should be seeing the glaring obvious deficiency in our striking ability and be busting a ball to be the hero and rectify it.

 

[Zinchilla]

Naive. Still playing as if it’s in an empty stadium. Anthony Taylor rag bastard. Still think we need a CM with pace and bite. Ake always too deep, Son always exploits the hole behind Ferna created by Ake’s anxiety. But fuck it. Hopefully we’ve given the media what they want, the title is between rags, chelsea, liverpool. Perhaps we’ve got this moment out of the way and we can crack on quietly.

 

[kevin horlocks wand]

we have developed into a walking football team .

way too slow and predictable .

what is the point playing two wingers on the same side if you have nobody in the middle

I said it before we used to have aguero , dzeko, balotelli and tevez.

now we have a couple of wingers who can play up front.

Mendy useless and sterling invisible

finally, nevermind Kane buy fucking SON!!! (As well)

 

[Phil Mitchell Foden]

Should get Micah out of the studio and his suit and into a kit, should do a better job than Mendy at leftback even though he's about 3 stone overweight and retired.

 

[kanovic]

....and how would Kane have improved on that shit show. He wouldn't .

Well for one at least all the million crosses we do might actually have a target

 

[argyle]

Come on now, who didn’t expect that??? Feared before the team was announced but Mendy and Aki just compelled what was first thought...

The disaster of yesteryear isn’t prevalent, however, coming late to the party this year will undoubtedly cost us, thankfully this will force the hand around a certain acquisition imo!

Kane wouldn't have made a difference imo.

Defensive midfield and Left Back continue to be weak spots that the club turns a blind eye to for some reason.

 

[kun]

Mendy and Ake are dewy, poor players and unfortunately Ferna is also showing that he is not up to the mark anymore.

Ake was fine. He was hung out to dry by Mendy on numerous occasions.

Mendy is a liability.

 

[Claytop]

We are so so slow, I miss the centurion season with the counters.

 

[wattle]

Fucks me off every season with this “players aren’t ready” They chose to play for their international teams. Have a week or 10 days holiday but keep fit. Get back prepare and play. Fucking pampered.
