Match Threads Spurs Vs Leicester

[Fredo]

we're lucky to not be 5-2 down

 

[The Long Suffering One]

I can't imagine, as a player, it is fun playing in that team. Constantly chasing after the ball and hoping the odd trick and flick to get pass opponent press do come off.

 

[Daredevil]

Son, it’s time for a return to form now.

 

[mdharris]

Strange game. Everyone seems a bit off. Lots of poor touches.

But we still win this. Leicester are so open.

 

[Trees]

We've played 8 games and elite athletes are knackered?

I take your point but we have 2 great options off the bench in Skipp and Bissouma. Crazy not to use them more

 

[Springerding]

We need to have an extra body in midfield like how we put up with chelscum in the 2nd half. 2 CMs and 2 wingbacks are totally found out by all teams already........

We are soooo predictable.

 

[JoaoPereira]

We've been really unlucky.

we, as in, the ones watching?

The CM pairing have started 90% of every game so far. It’s clearly taking affect.

 

[pedrodelawasp]

What’s all this guff about Maddison controlling the game? He’s done nothing of the sort.

 

[idontgetit]

A bullshit penalty that they got to take twice, they had a goal saved by the Ref treating the goal-keeper like a protected species and then beat Lloris with a missed kick that rolled up the leg and turned into a worldie chip off the knee. We have been unlucky.

8 games, but dozens of Conte training sessions. And it's the training ground where Conte wants to see the effort...

 

[goughie1966]

Reminds of the stuff we played under José

Not sure it's that good

 

[thecook]

Hmmm, what's wrong here? Poor players, tactics or coach?

Sadly a question that has had to be asked way too many times in recent years and with recent coaches. It's the great Spurs mystery.

 

[Crow]

I think we have to stop trying to counter attack every.single.time we win the ball. It's far too predictable and been worked out by most other teams, I think that's why we've looked so much less threatening this season despite grinding out some results.

We need to try and keep possession at times, mix up the tempo of our play. And for fucks sake try moving into space when a teammate has the ball, we either just stand and watch or run forward waiting for a long ball in behind.

 

[bubble07]

It's so frustrating we never have numerical advantage in CM. Lack control

Take off sessegnon and bring on Son

 

[kendoddsdadsdogsdead]

So easy for Leicesters forward players to get hold of the ball. Without Romero no one wants to attack the first ball, first instinct is to retreat. What are we doing in midfield that’s so great that Bissouma can’t get a look in as well, baffling to me that one. No legs in midfield and without Son no legs in the team full stop and that was always the issue with taking son out of the team. I see a lot of people say pace is overrated but with the way we play it’s massively underrated and something we’re going to have to add as like Leicester teams will just squeeze us.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

We've been really unlucky.

How have you worked that out? Leicester have been outrageously wasteful in very good positions. We’re lucky to be drawing.

 

[roslau]

Son should be on at the restart. We looked absolutely toothless in the final third

 

[jondy1]

It’s a shambles bloody shambles did I say it’s a shambles?
