Eriksen still looks tired... lol

 

[SugarRay]

time to pack up lads. season done.

Not quite that bad but it does have that feeling, which of course it isn’t

 

[Yid-ol]

If we play this poorly with really just Kane and Delete out, then the rest of the team arnt pulling their weight..... Need to start winning games again, this is becoming a joke.

 

[Chimbo!]

At this rate third and fourth will be filled on default.

 

[mightyspur]

This is so fucking predictable.

I mean, we play ok, but did anyone actually expect something else.

Like your post!

Started brightly just got considerably worse as the game went on.

Yeah Llorente does not suit this team, he can link up quite well with Son but its entirely dependent on everything revolving around him which is not our strong suit.

I'm a little disappointed that our last 5 games we've conceded first and lost the first half. We're definitely not been aggressive enough early.

Im also worried about our ability to turn games around at the moment. Which was rarely a concern before the United game.

Chelsea losing, pool drawing. Come on spurs

Spurs losing

 

[tony0379]

Oh come on guys, we are in 3 cup comps and 3rd in the league. If you gave me that in August I'd have snapped your hand off

 

[VancouverSpur]

time to be brave poch, make a half-time sub ...

Now that would be something..cant remember the last time that happened.

 

[ajspurs]

I would get both Lamela and Lucas on, Son is the only player with any forward drive at the moment and it's not enough. If he picks the ball up any bit away from goal there's fuck all else ahead of him other than Llorente standing still. Need Lamela to be picking up the ball in those areas with him, Son and Lucas being able run off each other. There's such a lack of movement.

Poch seriously has to make a HT change, will be ridiculous if he keeps things the same.

 

[werty]

Don't understand what we're trying to do. We seem to want to play it wide to our wing-backs to play crosses into the box, but only have Llorente in there. Not that it would matter who we have in there because we can't beat the first man. Don't know what our obsession is with playing a number 10 behind two forwards is, but it's not working. if we're going to persist with a back three then Son and Eriksen need a to play a bit wider and get in the box more. Having someone attacking the front post would be a novelty at this stage.

 

[JCRD]

We'll start playing properly now that we are down. Seems to be the blueprint recently.

We will come out all guns blazing but even if we win it will mask a few issues we have.

We need to strengthen in a few places and get rid of one or two

 

[thebenjamin]

I'm fucking freezing

 

[Deleted member 27995]

He needs to figure out his current best starting 11 and just fucking stick to it, or at least figure out his best starting back 4.

Fucking about, even with the injuries.

This started around the first leg of the semi and we've been shit since then.

 

[EaMidSpurs]

Aurier & Rose have offered nothing going forward rubbish crosses & five yard square passes.


KWP on for Aurier & Lamela for Sanchez at half time.

 

[Kingellesar]

Its weird under Poch in a game like this where you go 1 down you would usually feel like we can get back in it. But this past month has just knocked us all for six.

I have no confidence in this team now at all, this was a must win game to try and get our season back on track. Lose here and I fear we could struggle to pull ourselves out of this. This would be 3 losses in all comps....and 3 straight home league losses.

 

[Grey Fox]

Chelsea losing, Liverpool drawing, so Spursy

 

[DiscoD1882]

When you have a point of press as dull as Llorente. You are in trouble. He is fucking awful. Flat footed. Body position all wrong. Not even worthy of - 1 rating in the ratings thread. Fucking guff. And wtf is lloris thinking??

 

[13VanDerBale13]

I just hate three at the back.

honestly the only reason i think he's playing it, is because he doesn't want to risk putting out all our attacking players on the pitch at the same time given our current injury crisis

 

[homer hotspur]

Maguire 1-1 Leicester in the last second! Some good news at least

really?
