Match Threads Coventry vs Spurs

[worcestersauce]

what was the injury to Odobert ?

His leg.

 

[Finchyid]

He's not just fast, he is very strong in the ball too. Offers us something different going forward

He shows a bit of urgency….not like the others

 

[EastUpperDK82]

scared of how poor that was

Well.... nothing comes easy when you are stuttering a bit as a team... with the many subs as well... we can only hope that it will lift the spirit and belief again. The way we won it anyway.

Glad we are through but disgraceful performance for 80minutes. Were it not for kulu and spence we would be going out and completely outplayed by an average championship team. This was our worst perfomance of the season and the bergvall and solanke subs were completely baffling by ange.

why can't ppl understand - Solanke has just returned from an injury. What if he flogged him for both games & he got injured again. Same fans would complain coach was not helping the player. This was Ange managing Solanke. Bergvall tired quite a bit 2nd half - his quality was great but his legs were not the same

 

[FinnYid]

Too many changes tonight

Most of teams from League Two to Premier made 7 or more changes. That wasn't the problem.

 

[talkshowhost86]

Seems like we need to build the team around Deki.

And Johnson cannot start games. He can come on after 30 seconds. But he must never start.

 

[Cochise]

To be fair to Ange, the Spence goal was pretty much one for the system. Maddison drops deep, flicks it first time through the lines to the target man who has dropped in to space who then in turn plays in an on rushing full back to score.

 

[HildoSpur]

Probably our fans being ****s in his DM's might have soured his feelings towards them.

No I mean some in here saying they didn't celebrate

 

[Nerine]

Brennan didn’t want to acknowledge the fans there, that’s sad to see

They’ve been giving him dogs abuse so I’d be wanting to tell them to fuck off too.

 

[Trees]

Can Spence be converted to a right winger? We converted Bale from a lb to a winger.

Play him behind Porro at the weekend. I’d push Porro further fwd.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Anyone else not celebrate either goal?

Pathetic mentality. We won, last minute.

We all know it probably papers over cracks but worry about it another day ffs

 

[Metalhead]

Can Spence be converted to a right winger? We converted Bale from a lb to a winger.

That didn’t turn out too badly as I remember.

 

[DiamondLites]

Not surprising

No, but sad all the same. He should’ve been celebrating with the fans who should’ve been singing his name, Sonny brought him over and he just gave a cursory applause and left. Hate that some ‘fans’ have made him feel that way

 

[mpickard2087]

The biggest steal in many a year, first half was just dull but second half they completely outfought us and played better/more effective football for most of it.

Atrocious display and a freak comeback doesn't paper over the cracks. Most of the midfield/attacking line and their work in the final third is closer to top of the Championship standard, rather than top of the Premier League.

 

[mark87]

No one will believe a match thread going past 100 pages after a win. Gold the thread.

 

[Russ1201]

I hate this team.

I hate Levy more

 

[olliec]

Play him behind Porro at the weekend. I’d push Porro further fwd.

Or Porro behind Spence as Porro is better at defending.

 

[lukadownthelane]

Yea I’m still massively concerned tbh as I just don’t see how we score goals moving forwards against any half decent opposition.

Hopefully this can be a momentum changer but I’m still concerned tbh but glad we didn’t go out my god that would’ve been horrendous.

Honestly I think we finish 8th this season. Could even be lower.

Changing the manager changes nothing long term but I am very concerned about the performances and this is as boring as Conte’s second season.

 

[mil1lion]

What point did we get so bad in cups? Think directly after the CL final. The more changes we make the significantly worse we get. It's crazy we looked good in the CL in the past. Probably because we played our first team. Now the lesser cups expose our squad because we've spent years shopping for bargains. I see no way out of this other than a takeover. We got away with it big time tonight. It's getting embarrassing the tail end of Levys time here.

 

[Mr Pink]

Kulusevski our best player at the moment.
