Match Threads Spurs vs Everton

[spurs mental]

Started like a house on fire the first 20 minutes and dropped off.

Love hearing Efan Ekoku raging that it's 2 nil though. Bloke can't stand us.

 

[Stamford]

Braithwaite is a very good player

Not watching but funny to see people moaning even though we’re winning 2-0 against the form team in the PL while we have half the squad out.

TBF they've got plenty of injuries too

The shirt pull is ridiculous isn’t it. There must be 5-6 simultaneous offences taking place at corners so do they tally up and see who is committing the most, attack or defence ?

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

The first 35 minutes of that game was some of the best football we’ve played…however the final 15 was some of the worst.

We need an early goal in the second half to kill this game off. If Everton get one back, it’ll be a very hard game to see out.

Poor half overall but some great moments within it. I would be tempted to bring Lo Celso on for Skipp to help control the midfield better. A lot of sloppy play so far.

Someone's just discovered The Inbetweeners...

Full credit to Everton they have given it a go from the first whistle. It doesnt help the last 15.minutes us being sloppy. A top finisher would have us going in 2-2.

In true Spurs fashion we may need a third

 

[djhotspur]

We've been awful and 2-0 up at the half. Worst performance of the Ange era for me, no control and too sloppy and casual with possession.

Dyche has set Everton up perfectly to exploit our gaps by baiting us into overloading one side with the press then playing the big switch. We'll concede within the first 10 mins of the second half if we don't take care of the ball better.

Nah wolves was the worst but this isn’t great since 25 mins

Can tell you’re not watching.

if Everton were cutting us open then most of us would hold our hands up. They haven’t, our players have been laughably sloppy under no pressure and gifting them the ball in dangerous areas.

 

[Frozen_Waffles]

In fact if it wasn't for Vicario and for some reason no VAR on that Kulusevski pull, we could even be losing it.

So you’re happy with that last 15 minutes if that half?

Lucky to be ahead.

We just need a better ball player in midfield. To hold it up, turn, switch the attack and add composure.
I hope Le Celso is worth a few minutes this half.
We are crying out for composure on the ball.

 

[Zippy1980]

We will be different 2nd half. Keep you’re kacks on

 

[Kirito]

[philll]

Bang some heads together, Ange. If we play like we did for the last 10 minutes of that after the break, our luck will run out.

 

[Spursberg]

Need changes in midfield second half or we will concede. Sarr and skip does not work defensivly, they have had a bad 15 min now. Not fast enough in pressuring their midfield. Good start though

 

[yojambo]

Not a comfortable watch. If Everton are more aggressive and press higher in the second half we could be in trouble. There has been enough warning signs.

Need to get Kulusevski in the game more. Ben Davies passing hasnt been great today, played some awkward balls to teammates. Brennan Johnson has a touch of the Ryan Sessegnon's about him doesnt he? Is good but you just want him to be a bit more full blooded, its like he isnt playing with total conviction.

On the plus side took our goals well. Richarlison, Porro and Sarr having good games.

 

[DenverSpur]

Despite us 2-0 up and dominating the game , at least until the last 10 minutes, yet I’m a bag of nerves. We are so open at the back and give away so many chances we could easily be 3-2 down at HT. It’s alright playing exciting attacking football but there’s got to be some home security at the back.

 

[Kirito]

Thats the way we play, mistakes will be made - better than playing Conte ball still making the odd mistake with no attacking threat.
