Match Threads Spurs vs Borussia Dortmund - Match Thread

[The Apprentice]

Someone wake Moura up. He’s miles off the pace.

I did prefer the 'back 3' with Dier on the pitch. In possession he'd move into midfield. Without Dier would drop to make the back three.

Much more fluid

Agree, as the team has the ability to transition it's formation as the game ebbs and flows. My main issue with this, is there is less opportunity to keep the ball up top with less people up top. Which makes a goal slightly less likely? Perhaps Poch is tying to see out the game without conceding?

Dier's flexibility in this is TBH, unmatched.

 

[GutBucket]

Good stuff from Foyth and Aurier. This doesn't seem to be Eriksen's night but plenty of time for him to do something.

 

[Tucker]

Aside from that one mistake (where I think he was fouled) Foyth has been impressive.

 

[felmani26]

Not great from Hugo again there

 

[mmidgers]

Great move by foyth

 

[JayB]

Poor from Lucas again

 

[thinktank]

Waiting for the @ regarding foyth's great driving forward play... got tea and biscuits so willing to wait a while.

 

[Pistols At Dawn]

We're growing into the game

 

[wishkah]

It's about not being the underdog. Want us to be the bigger team

 

[Kirito]

Sancho offside! Madness

 

[nedley]

I don't think this policy of totally neglecting centre midfield is a recipe for success. We've offered almost nothing going forward.

Really missing Demebele.

Winks has done well to try and up the tempo the last 10 mins. It's the others like Lucas unable to continue the good work.

 

[Twizzle]

dont like this set up at all

He peaks and fades extremely quick.

 

[fortworthspur]

Winksy may have a worse shot than Sissoko.

 

[Giovanni]

Foyth proving that we need an extra body in midfield there!

 

[Johnny J]

Does anyone else smile every time they mention Zagadoo?

I hate that song

 

[ShaunL84]

Moura has been awful.

 

[Gassin's finest]

My first time thinking this... But Lucas isn't quite... Y'know.
