Spurs (A) | Post-Match Thread

[Nellies left peg]

And No reason for there not to be on the whole.
"Tired", my f#cking arse.

They are super fit and in their prime. They get every opportunity to train and maintain their fitness unlike some of us who play Saturday go on the piss and play again Sunday morning. We could play at walking pace too like this lot today

 

[Claytop]

Fucking he’ll I’ve heard some shite in my life but fucking he’ll give it a rest FFS. It’s 1 game

Two…

And I wasn’t being serious.

 

[Barnegat]

Really disappointed with that. Gundo playing high was to be expected as Spurs had a lot of players back to defend, but we looked so vulnerable to the counter. Didn’t help that Fernandinho had a really bad game.

 

[Zinchilla]

Also on Sterling playing shit. Difference with England is he plays with a striker to occupy space. We don’t have that here you bring Kane in he goes back to his normal form

This every time.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Shit that, onwards & upwards.

 

[Luke The Blue]

Rodri is the most important player in the squad now.

You cannot question Ferns desire or commitment but Spurs ran through our midfield like there was nothing there. He cannot cover the ground anymore.

We arent going to buy a new defensive midfielder, so we need Rodri to be world class in the position if we are going to win anything this season.

Problem is Rodri isn't world class and never will be. They'd have run through him aswell.

 

[madloaf]

Shit that, onwards & upwards.

There is no downwards from that!

 

[domalino]

Problem is Rodri isn't world class and never will be. They'd have run through him aswell.

Then we are fucked.

 

[madden150]

Rareem?! would rather Jesus out wide than him

Cant be easy when your consistently playing with w#nk left backs that can barely provide a 1-2 let alone a decent pass.

 

[MadchesterCity]

Total dog shit, the problem is much bigger than today,

Yet "we" lap up the ITK messaging about Kane, get a striker in now, do the deal for Kane or break the bank for Haaland.
Our form end of last season and this season is atrocious, not acceptable and is a full blown slump now. We won't get away with a slow start this season,the rags, chavs and scousers are laughing at us and our inability to secure a striker knowing fine we'll we are out the title race without one.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

The annoying things is we’ve all seen that performance and result before.
The mendy situation in particular is almost laughable now. But we will see it again

 

[CityFan94]

Not the biggest surprise when you look at the players we had out.

Nonetheless, Mendy and Ake starting is a worry. They’re not good enough.

 

[Aussie!]

If we don't get a striker this season it's an utterly fail of an transfer window. I don't even mind someone else besides Kane, but we can't keep playing with those inverted strikers any longer. What a terrible performance. And Mendy should just get a free transfer.

Yeh, the whole competition will have figured us with our inverted strikers now.

 

[yeseye]

Wonder what Grealish thinks he’s walked into..

The Champions of England maybe?

 

[ysmsa]

Mendy should be gone already.

Cancelo, Ake, Torres all on their last chance.

I'm one step ahead of you.

If they'd come through the ranks or were bought cheaply fair enough,

They cost a fuckin fortune though, should not be looking out of place.

 

[Great Kompany]

Here is a quick thought.

Leicester signed Bertrand for free this season.
No away he can be more awful than Mendy.
I guess no-one wants Mendy hence we are unable to pursue any LB deal.

 

[cookster]

It's frustrating, I just think it'll take a few weeks.

A few more games, after the international break, we'll have a fit KDB, Foden, Stones, Walker, Zin, Laporte, etc. Grealish will have more than a week in the system to get his feet wet. Kane will (hopefully) be here. It's just going to take some time.

I do agree it's worrying that Spurs and Chelsea (at least under Tuechel) have figured us out. I fucking hate Spurs.

Had enough ball and shots. Same old story, counter attack goal conceded, easy chances missed.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

There is no downwards from that!

I bloody hope not!

 

[seerey74]

Ferran Torres growing on me
Mandy is killing me!

 

[andyhinch]

not on here he's not .

Hard to believe he didn’t hook Mendy at halftime but early days.
