Final balls have been poor, Kane isolated, Aurier's crossing ineffective, and some silly defensive decisions that put us in trouble.

Palace are set up so negative and to frustrate. Imagine what they will be like if the take the lead. To be fair to them the tactics have worked so far. Frustrating to watch though.

Started off with just pub team finishing and then the pub team element seemed to spread amongst the whole team.

Aurier off Trippier on, give it 10 mins then Moura for Wanyama.

Very sloppy so far. Palace are there for the taking, just need to be much sharper. COYS!!!

Just lacking any spark or sharpness really, which is always going to make it a long day against a compact organised defence. Saying that we had a big chance early on which makes the game totally different.

Need much more from our front four players. I've been disappointed in Eriksen and some of his passing choices, he's been a step or two slow in what he does. And lets be honest, Kane has offered absolutely fuck all in that half, he hasn't even moved to make space even, gotta do much better in the second half.

I’m still convinced we’ll win comfortably. If we just wind it up 10%, they’ll crumble.

We’ve been in second gear so far.
We need to wind it up about 10 gears, IMO. Im sick of coming out crap against poor teams and only turning it on against good teams(besides city, of course).

This isn’t knee jerk, why the fuck does aurier play ahead of trippier. The guy has average pace, can’t cross for shit and now it appears he can’t even take fucking throw ins. He ain’t even that great at defending........

In fairness, we've been waaaaay off our game and they still havent managed to touch the ball from what ive seen.

Smelling salts at half time and we should have far too much for them.

Palace well drilled in defence. Kane scores early and we romp away.

Need a positive start to second half. I would bring on son pretty quick for alli if fortunes don't change.

Maybe moura for aurier! :confused:

Hey Mauricio, grow a spine please and make 2 changes at half. Lucas for Wanyama and Rose for Davies. Then Son for Lamela if things dont liven up around the 60th. Far too slow and way too sloppy.

Did you really just accuse our manager of being a coward?

Fucking hell... Spurs fans eh :ROFLMAO:
