Match Threads Spurs vs Brighton - Match Thread

I tell you what this is boring. They need a turkey up the ass at half time.

I’m not seeing all these tactical problems people keep insisting upon, not today. We’re playing a higher line and that has compressed midfield, bringing the attackers closer to the pivot. Presumably this is because Brighton lack pace in attack.

The problem has not been tactics or formation, it’s been utterly negligent passing from everyone. Pure sloppiness under minimal pressure. There have been countless setups where we look promising and then someone, even Winks, just aimlessly strokes the ball to an opponent. Sort that out and we can score a goal or two.

just feels like our luck has fucked off.

 

[Chimbo!]

You also have to raise questions about our handling of transfers. No signing for 18 months and when we finally splash out on two players to cover our weakest positions, they can’t get into the team halfway through the season. Seriously!?

Kick their arses at halftime Maureen m’luv

They don’t deserve any treats.

How is all our build up play focused on our right hand sight when that is the area of the pitch with our worst technically limited players. I’m literally astounded at these tactics.

Bring on the argies

Such a shit footballer. It’s surely no coincidence that our downturn as a club coincides with Sissoko becoming a first team regular.

well said, he may try hard, have athleticism, but no footballer

 

[Hawk_Spur]

No confidence, no creativity, lack the ability to make a five yard pass.....

Maybe, we simply are a poor football team.

 

[Trees]

D-REAM- things can only get better.

They didn’t for Labour

 

[cider spurs]

You'll not break my resolve.

I have turkey sandwiches and bailey's to wash 'em down.

I'm still of the belief that we'll score, can we score more than one, I'm not overly optomistic. Add to this if we score two, reckon they'll score again.

Lo Celso, Lamela or Eriksen for a bit more guile second half for me.

Just feckin win. It's Christmas. ?

COYS!!

It really makes me mad when these players are paid so much money and they play with no enthusiasm or any passion at all.

No it coincided with Dembele's decline and departure.

He carried everyone until his hip gave way.

The man was everything in our team.

Because oppositions are allowing it

Dele is really beginning to piss me off. All he does is those stupid nothing flicks and strolls around with an attitude.

He hasn’t really offered anything for ages now. Too much money perhaps.

Used to be my favourite player for us as well. He used to be so hungry for the ball.

 

[chrissivad]

Why is that not reviewed by VAR? It’s a clear and obvious mistake that leads to a goal scoring chance. I don’t understand.

The foul can't be reviewed as it's not a goal or red card offence.
Once they take the free kick and score, they can't look back at it as its a past phase.

'raise questions'? That's putting it rather mildly.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

I really hate this team very much. Infuriating lack of effort time and time again. Should all be booed off the pitch every game and given a walk of shame in a shower of boos and people screaming shame. Fuck all of them. Send toby, serge, winks, kane, lucas, jan, sissoko, dele, gazzaniga directly to the moon.

Actually agree, Kane and Sess aside I dont like any of them out there. And the odd good game wont change my mind.

 

[Hazelton]

The problem with this squad is that all of the things I love about it happened at least two years ago. Time for a new squad and new memories.
