Spurs (H) - Post-Match Thread

[daztrueblue91]

That was a really bad goal to concede especially as a draw would have kept the title race out of Liverpool’s hands. That could be a really huge momentum shift in the title race.

In reality, they are going to drop points so I would still make us strong favourites for the league.

This needs to be a wake up call though. It’s one thing being devoid of ideas in an attacking sense against a well drilled side. It’s another to defend like a bunch of amateurs at the same time.

If this result against Spurs was a one off then you’d argue that we’ve been unlucky overall and there would be nothing to worry about. However, this is the fourth consecutive game in which the pattern of the match has played out in the exact same manner. Pep simply has to sort it out and fast.

Cant win them all.

But christ spurs have to be the most anti football team. I know spurs won but they were fucking awful.

Spurs could score with their every attack and forced us into cross after cross. Counter-attacking is not anti-football.

Bottle jobs, first bit of pressure and test of their character this season and they wilted. Bizarre lack of subs

Bring on Delap if you're gonna lob the ball in every 30 pissing seconds. Definition of madness and all that...

Pep Guardiola and game management.

The biggest fallacy in football.

Dreadful team performance, dreadful management performance.

Eh? Give over. Or could be that we couldn’t break down an 8 man defensive line, but with 3 quality players on the break. Happens.

But liverpool won't have eleven men behind the ball for 80 minutes of the game. Still in our hands.

Which is worse, they'll swarm and run at our supposed defenders

So it's not in their hands then...

It’s in both teams hands

neither team is relying on the other dropping points against other teams

I think even though we’ve won loads of games this season. We are really struggling to create chances and score goals.

We’ve scored shit loads. It’s letting in 3 that’s the problem

At least the rags have another team to worry about for 4th!

Rhymes with Clucking Bell !

Bastard Spurs not being Spursy, the shithouse cock spanners

Spurs have 2 good players and we let them break us
