Having Naughton Dawson and Capoue in defence after spending £110m in the summer is a complete joke.
It's not like we don't have other defenders, they're just injured. Obviously Kaboul, Verts, Chiriches and Rose would be in there ahead of them if they were fit. Horses for causes, but unfortunately our horses are lame.

I used to think the days of Vega and Doherty were behind us. Naughton has probably had the worst game I've seen a spurs player have. He actually just kicked a ball out of play with no one near him.

Worst performance this season so far. No quality and zero fight.

I'm not sure AVB has it in his locker to turn this around.

At least Soldado has looked ok... Compared to the rest of the team he has looked like fsking Messi.

Please let there be a comeback this going to ruin my day

Our day is ruined again mate like you I've had enough of these performances it's happening far to often and the high line simply doesn't work.
I trust levy to see what is going on around him and to make the correct decision quickly.

THIS IS WHAT YOU FUCKING GET FOR NOT PLAYING ROSE!!!

PLUS I DONT CARE IF VERTONGHEN/KABOUL/CHIRICHES ARE INJURED, JUST PLAY TWO OF THEM NEXT FUCKING GAME!
HAHAHAHAHA!!

Dawson is suspended next game, and if the others are all injured... Then how does Walker - Capoue - Fryers - Naughton look to you.

hahahahahaha!!

Why are we playing long ball all the time? This is actually shit why are we just booting the ball to Chadli? Look at how much work Soldado is having to do outside the box because we've got nothing coming through that turgid midfield.

And Naughton seriously, if Fryers is not a better option than him at left back then he might as well leave because Naughton is nicking a living, never a footballer.

I blame that little girl. Don't piss Suarez off. I imagine some Norwich fans use to joke that Uruguay sounded like You-Are-Gay and look what he does to them.
That little girl is our MOTM so far. In fact, we should play her at left back.

How did we get into having to play such a makeshift defence again? Aside from loaning out our most senior LB and getting rid of a club-trained young CB in the summer? Might have been able to play Kapow in midfield otherwise.

Sheeit. Another half to go yet but yeah, an afternoon to forget methinks.

To be fair we replaced Caulker with Vlad. We can't really have five senior centre backs, we're just cursed as always to have three of them injured at the same time.

All these AVB out chants now were probably lapping it up midweek.

Fickle and dangerous.

Who the fuck would come in and get Naughton, Dawson and Capoue in a defence to work coherently against a world class player in Suarez and a team that is full of confidence?!

Get a grip!

Dawson, Capoue, Naughton + high line = defensive suicide!

Can't believe I've witnessed such a tactic!

I think this is a perfect example of AVB's shortcoming. Arrogance to point that even when injuries force him to change tactically, he refuses to. He has many qualities that a world class manager needs. All of which are compromised by his inability to be flexable with the teams style of play.

Our midfield have big names but poor quality!
The defense specially Daws and Naughton are poor.
We can't pass, don't have vision and we are fragile and weak!

Horrendous half of football. No way Liverpool won't score second half. They are walking through our back line. Dawson and Capoue has to be the slowest CB pairing in Premiership history and are all at sea. How unlucky are we to have our best three CBs and only half decent left back unfit? Naughton is all over the shop.

Sandro clearly wasn't fit.

Lennon has done squat. Get Townsend on.


Surely it can't get any worse....
