Match Threads Burnley vs Spurs - Match Thread

[ackie]

2 changes...
GLC and Moura coming on
Jose changing it

I’m not saying the tactics Are great, im
Saying Dier letting the ball bounce ,players not being able to complete simple passes, that’s not on anyone but the players

but if we defend high. You know pin teams in. Then we don’t concede the chances in the first place.
We can’t concede possession like we do and give up the chances we do.
man city and Liverpool concede maybe 2-3 great chances a game through playing so high and occasionally concede.
We concede 20 chances a game so of course teams are going to score against us.
How anyone can still defend Jose is beyond me especially tasking into account what he did at United

Mourinho’s previous teams used to have sound defences. Can’t understand why he can’t get our defence to play well.

 

[stov]

We must have the dumbest and most ungrateful posters on any football site.

Page upon page with drivel and not an ounce of perspective. We're injury plagued and playing important matches every 3 days. You lot expect the same eleven players to go full speed every match?

Are we perfect? Certainly not. Do we look better and get more results than the old regime despite major injury issues? Yeah we do, yet no manager has ever been given this little time by our "fans".

Have some patience and support the team and let's see where we are in a year.

We do not look better. That's drivel.

Ndombele and Skipp need some help, Lamela is taking too long to release the ball and Dele isn't trying to adapt to this role.

The defenders continue to make individual mistakes and the others panic as a result.

They need to sort themselves out mentally because they've been doing this shit for so long that they can't complain about not having protection in front of them.

Skipp needs to come in the middle for the ball. I thought he did well on Wednesday but today he's playing the timid Spurs way and went hiding.

At one point he was receiving the ball in the middle with space and lines from Burnley were broken for him to pass forward.

I really wish Gedson can play in the middle for us. He has the intelligence to receive the ball among the spaces. The rest are typically brainless and static like lamp posts.

Absolute bollocks I’m afraid. Giving Ledley King a punt in the dugout would get more out of our squad than we currently are.

This is just so dumb. Do you honestly believe Ledley King, an untested ex player, would get nore out of a team than the worlds most successful manager?

Behave.

 

[swarvsta]

If Jose doesn’t make a sub at half time I am going to climb down from the stands, in reverse Eric Dier fashion.

 

[yiddopaul]

If there’s no changes at half time then JM is well and truly taking the piss

If the tactics are still the same. It won't matter who comes on.

 

[Crowedem]

Not only is this terrible - the players are clearly arguing with each other too. Whole club is flat. Jose is very lucky we have a few injuries because of this was happening with harry and sonny fit then his days would surely be numbered.

 

[yankspurs]

So I guess Dele and Lo Celso in CM then?

 

[Dean]

Yeah, much worse than Scholer who had the club on the brink of bankruptcy

We now have record profits. How fucking awesome.

 

[bat-chain]

Why would anyone want Jose to succeed, his whole idea of football is a sin.

 

[mark87]

I'm fed up of watching our players play with little or no desire.

 

[KingKay]

Woeful again.

 

[ackie]

Skipp off
And Ndombele off

 

[Jamturk]

I think we need to change tactics for the 2nd half, it's like we are wasting a player playing 3 at the back.

He could even push Dier into DM for a bit and see how that goes.

Also bring on a threat in the WB/FB area it's too easy for Burnley to impose themselves on us.

 

[tony0379]

We will win 3-2

 

[yankspurs]

It actually disgusts me how many times NBC go to a commercial break in half time.

They have to get them all in during a 15' period

 

[Jody]

Possibly one of the most joyless footballing experiences of my life. Still, can only get better in the 2nd half. Can see us nicking a win. COYS!

 

[Pistols At Dawn]

i'm old enough to remember when we worried someone might snatch dele away for 100 mil
