Westham v Tottenham: Match thread

[hughy]

Fucking hell, how crap is Corluka at the moment? Should be subbed at half-time, he's having an absolute shocker.

 

[Dr Know]

I feel we suffering from a bit of over confidence here from our last 2 games. I was happy to go to half time so Harry can slap some heads.

 

[spurs mental]

Both Charlie and Ledley look nervous under the the high ball

 

[kaz Hirai]

glad the half time whistle went, takin a bit of a beating for the last 15 mins

 

[elvis7754]

Done

i too would appreciate one sir

 

[NickHSpurs]

We need Hutton's aggression rather than Charlie's casualness today, I think he could make the difference.

 

[Goldman]

Yea the whistle couldn't come soon enough. We need to regroup. Some of our players are trying to take far too long on the ball. We need to up our pace and movement of the ball.

There is definately a goal here for us, but we do look quite likely to conceed aswell at the moment.

 

[Michey]

How can Parker still be on the pitch??? :shrug:

Should have had 2 straight red or 3 yellow.... :bang:

 

[OnTheUp]

Playing one man up front at home and they consider themselves an attacking team!?!?!....West Ham are ther new Bolton!!!

me too :bang:

 

[spurs mental]

JD has barely touched the ball too.

 

[Michey]

Commentator saying that lennon only relies on pace and needs to add some trickery etc. Once again a completley clueless twat talking shite

They are pretty close i'd say

He must add trickery and better passes too take a next step. We don't need to lie about that.

 

[C-oops]

It's a good match. Very tight. Defence has looked shakey at times but ultimately done well to keep them out. Corluka needs to wake up a bit. King seems to have regained his composure after a couple of errors. Can see Bassong becoming the same player for us in defence as Wilson is in midfield. Great buy by Harry there. Need some height in there I think too. Apart from our CDs we haven't won or even challenged for a header. Should have put away those chances in the first half. Am quite pleased tho. Last season and the one before we would be 1-0 down by now.

 

[CaYid]

If cudicini is going to keep hoofing the ball up we might as well put on crouch

 

[gaganelov]

Late to the show...do we have chance to win in the seconf half?

29.40: WOODWORK - SPURS. Modric curled in a free-kick from the left, King deft glancing header looped over Green who could only watch it hit the crossbar and bounce to safety.

 

[agrdavidsfan]

parker is palacios exactly

were getting hammerd in some areas of the pitch

Ledley doesnt look himself

Modric the same

we need some more fight someone like O'hara or hutton

Corluka just cant defend :lol:

 

[hughy]

I think Huddlestone's probably been our best player, it's just getting the ball to him when he's in space that no one's been able to do. Modric and Palacios have been good, too.

 

[Luka Lennon]

How can Parker still be on the pitch??? :shrug:

Should have had 2 straight red or 3 yellow.... :bang:

yea clattenberg's been an absolute **** letting parker away with a good few late reckless tackles

 

[Bobishism]

Corluka playing pretty rubbish. everyone agree?

 

[C-oops]

They are pretty close i'd say

He must add trickery and better passes too take a next step. We don't need to lie about that.

What they actually said was "needs trickery and to be able to cut inside". He does both. Just crossing needs improving but that seems to be getting better all the time. See Keanes goal against Hull. He works so well with Corluka usually. Little one twos and through balls. Not really happening today tho.
