Match Threads North London Derby pt 1

[johnwhitesghost]

Nothing to do with Ange, everything to do with Romero. Win the fucking header, that’s your job.

 

[Moorpheus19]

We can't score and we don't keep clean sheets.

Not a great combo

 

[EastUpperDK82]

Saying it every week now, it was Romero’s man….

He's a world cup winner... Real Madrid are after him... and he's a proud and old school defender... why does he do that time and time again ?? ... somehow we can't rely on our leaders.

 

[Smokinhotspur]

There is just no conviction in what we are doing in both boxes. This team is devoid of leaders.

 

[neogenisis]

Vic should be taking out everybody and everything coming out for that.

 

[Russ1201]

Look it’s a joke now. Get a set piece coach

100% but Ange is so stubborn!
Getting fed up with some of Ange naive tactics.

 

[talkshowhost86]

Vicario has got to come to get that ball. He’s got plenty of room in front of him to go for it

It's right underneath him.

Cuti messes it up but either way it should be Vicario's ball.

 

[only1waddle]

If Romero's head was turned by Madrid, this season hasn't been the greatest way to advertise himself.

 

[IfiHadTheWings]

We need a new keeper

 

[spark7586]

Again taking too long to make subs. Guessing he didn’t see how shit Johnson was first half as he shouldn’t have come out second half.

 

[mattspur1986]

Sigh. It’s like the Newcastle game on repeat. All the possession but the sucker punch.

How many clear cut chances though? All sideways with no penetration, teams let us have the ball for that very reason.

 

[GioW]

Hands up if you're surprised.

Biggest half hour in Ange's management of us

 

[ajspurs]

Vicario's place needs to be seriously questioned if he continues to be so weak from set pieces. Romero was terrible but a good keeper would eliminate any potential danger when you consider where the ball was.

Odobert should have also been on sooner for Johnson as he was just wasting any opportunity down the right side.

 

[Spursberg]

We need to look for a more assertive keeper in the next window.

Keeper. what is Romero doing running in front of Gabriel, he looks like he has no clue how to defend in the box

 

[Chimbo!]

I think the criticisms of Vicario for the goal are overblown. It was a good delivery and too many bodies to come out and punch.

 

[midoshairband]

Berg for Gray for Bent, really not sure why Sarr has come on.

 

[Dr Know]

There was a push on Romero. Is that allowed now?

 

[Albertbarich]

Yes Romero lost his man but again the keeper is a hinderence not a help . It’s such a huge weakness in his game

 

[Johnny J]

I don’t think Vicario can cut it in this league.

He either needs to get the ball strongly and take someone with it if need be, or go down when he's fouled before the ball is even kicked.

Right now he's just sitting on his line and doing neither.

 

[Thenewcat]

the quality just not there lads

Set piece defending isn’t about quality. It’s just coaching plain and simple. If Sean dyche was our manager we wouldn’t be conceding these goals
