Match Threads Spurs vs Villa - Match Thread

[Gb160]

Bit of a naive question but just interested, on Mondays when the lads come in for training do they sit down and watch the game for analysis or is it just the coaches who then relay the info? Also would they use Sky or Bt video or do the club have their own recordings?

Id guess they go through the whole match pointing out the good and the bad... for home matches they'll have a lot more footage available compared to away matches I believe.

Certain I have read before that every ground has to have the ability to film the match (independently of the TV channels), and the home team must make the footage available to the away team.

Yeah that makes sense, but you're not going to give the opposition more than you have to surely?

I thought there was a lot of huff & puff from us until Eriksen came on. I was happy to see Harry drift deep or to the wings. There is something deeply wrong with our players when they cannot take a proper corner far to many times it doesn't reach the first man or it goes to deep. Ndombele's goal will settle his nerves I thought he was measured in his play unlike Sissoko who to often gets a rush of blood. Winks is turning into Ray Wilkins with his crab passing.

All in all we played what we had in front of us. Villa will struggle this season I take them as one of the three to go down. Onward and upwards.

Don't ProZone & Opta have data cameras all over every pitch too that they have access too?

Pretty sure as a minimum that would be the whole match from the main camera angle.

Every club must has their own people filming anyway and even creating content on the fly, as some (eg. Guardiola) use video analysis at HT.

Yeah I'm pretty sure Poch does this also...id imagine a lot of the more progressive coaches do, doubt Woy Or Brucy bother with all that technology mumbo jumbo.

What does Christian Eriksen do well

In fact those of you on Twitter, you should follow @NathanAClark, he's a good analyst when it comes to Spurs, always breaks down our tactics and how we play.

They probably have what the NFL call the "all 22 camera(s)", which is positioned up high so you can see all 22 players. Usually have one behind the goal and a side on view. I think for the Women's World Cup (and some of the men's matches the year before) you could watch games from the high behind the goal. Think they called it the tactical cam.

I was imagining the lads having to suffer through some terrible commentary/ the camera panning to the bench during tactical analysis. I honestly would love to have the choice to change the camera angles during the game.

The more you watch Tanguy's goal, the better it gets. 3 aspects of absolute brilliance to it. Kane's touch to bring the ball under control, Lucas' feint and lay-back to Tanguy, and the finish. All of it was fantastic.

Clear clear visuals that that diamond is utterly dreadful.
Moura and Lamela moving out to the touchlines freed everything up

Let’s hope Poch ditches it then. Last season tells me he won’t though unfortunately despite admitting he got how we set up to start a match wrong. Again.

It's almost as though we're a very, very good team.

Not even slightly funny, I must be getting old I suppose.

I've just watched the replay and we absolutely battered them from go to woe.

The reaction in the match thread was a complete disgrace. What makes it more depressing was its entirely in character for these match day threads.

Reports from those at the game are that this utter lack of of support - this bitching, moaning, groaning lack of anything remotely resembling belief or will to help the team by supporting them - is quickly becoming the defining motif of our new stadium. Yes we can fill it but it's no better than Wembley for actually helping the team.

It's becoming a real problem now. How the fuck did it come to this? WHL used to be loud and proud whatever the score line.

Depressing.

I think that's a bit romantic in all honesty.
The last few seasons at the lane had some pretty terrible atmospheres, considering we went unbeaten there in our last year its the same story as now...unless we're pounding teams for 3 or 4, or playing a top 6 team or West Ham, the atmosphere could be quite crap at times.

Ive been going all my life (41 years) and had a season ticket for the last 12, and I put it down to the average age of our fans getting older, and a lot of real fans being priced out of going.
People are paying top dollar for tickets now, and a lot of them feel they're owed scintillating football for 90 minutes, anything less than that is met with groans and general displeasure.
We're not unique in that though...that's what Premier League football is like at most clubs nowadays unfortunately.

Agree with all of this and especially the bold.

It's the entitlement that does my head in. There's a contract between fan and team that goes both ways. Or, at least, it should.

I don't mind the venting in match day thread s- or even at the ground - but it's the utter lack of the bit going the other way. The "Ffs Sissoko" followed by "Come on you big glorious bastard!" - Vent THEN SUPPORT ffs

This Poch team has proved over and over and over that they deserve our belief and support until the final whistle.

Why should we get moments like the Moura goal when our fans are calling for players to be sacked or declaring them Championship level in the 32nd fucking minute?

It's so small time and petty. FFs.

It wasn't quite that simple. When we get a chant or song going, it's impressively deafening and very intense, because of the stadium design. We came out with our ears buzzing and that only used to be so for major derbies or cup matches.

From the start of the match, the support was vocal and consistent. After Villa scored, it took awhile, as usual, to get the intensity back. The middle of the match, either side of half time, was quiet, but that was partly because we were behind, being frustrated, but it wasn't late enough to see where the match was going. The atmosphere in the East Upper, where we sit, wasn't negative or toxic, it was more studious and suspenseful. We were all watching the team basically batter Villa and wondering if and how long they could hold out.

The football was good, especially after half time, but between about 30 minutes and about 65 minutes,there was an increasing sense that we were banging on a very secure door and were unlikely to break it down. After 65 minutes, Villa started tiring visibly, gaps appeared and the match consisted of unrelenting Spurs pressure around the Villa box. It looked like a matter of time and the noise and support ratcheted up accordingly.

Then Ndombele scored and the suspense was released. From that point until the final whistle, the support was loud and intense again.

 

[SPURSLIFE]

Both are young. Think of the best CBs in the premier league era and everyone had question marks over them.

Terry - too slow, loaned out, technically not good enough

Ferdinand - big money ahead of his time bringing the ball out from the back

Stam, King, Blanc, Vidic, even VVD when he moved from Celtic

They will develop into great players, they will make mistakes though but that is the learning curve of a CB.

I hope you're right I'm still not convinced.
