what was said? at work so cant listen
Bellamy spot on once again.
I could only bear to watch the first five minutes but I thought Merson had a point: you can't use tiredness as a reason for losing a 2-1 lead at Watford, especially when six days earlier you show no signs of tiredness when winning at Old Trafford.
it's not simply tiredness, it's a lack of preseason. You can't be fully fit with a week of training for nine WC players. Poch once said you need six weeks to reach that level. Beside Watford being very strong and fresh at the moment, for Spurs players it was absolutely natural to drop the intensity after a huge effort at Old Trafford.
Bellamy saying that everyone is over-reacting because of the Watford defeat and highlighting that the players are tired because many of them didn't have a pre season, also says he has a lot of time for us, reckons we're gonna be there or there abouts at the end of the season, also says we're winners.
Merson saying that the team lacks mentality, saying that tiredness is just an excuse and we should have been beating Watford away from home especially after beating Utd. Also saying that we should have bought players in in the summer.
Bellamy and Merson were going at it for a couple of mins, Bellamy was running rings round him, gave him the Hazard example and said that he didn't play Chelsea's first two matches because he wasn't fit, also said that Lucas is Spurs' best player because he was resting in the summer, Merson could only come back and say he wasn't having it lol
Do you think they chose to act like that or they didn't have the stamina to produce more wattage?I agree with the first bit about match fitness, but natural or not, a top class winning team does drop its intensity for these so called “lesser teams”.
These are one of the things that have to be eradicated if we want to go one step further. As Poch alluded to, we were just coasting, which isn’t good enough.

I find the concept of debate and Paul Merson to be an oxymoron......
.... with Merson as the moron obviously .
Merson is an ass-hole
Really? i though we were run around by ManU in the first half and were lucky not to be two goals down at half-time. In the second half we scored two quick goals and that of course gave us the energy but Mourinho was right and until the third goal they were in the game. Said already that I don't think we have been up to speed in any game so far.
