Match Threads Spurs vs Newcastle

[kthwlsn]

Richy up top is interesting. Suppose we will need him there in Jan when Son is gone, so future planning a bit.

He was a PL quality striker before. I'm gonna hold out hope that a steady run of games while Son's gone will get him back to that. Cue the optimistic ratings if we still had it.

 

[DarwinSpur]

Very very lucky.

 

[Trent Crimm]

People will say Richy should have laid that on for Johnson but I disagree we have missed that selflishness

He should have laid it across. He wasted it.

Ben Davies

I’m confused. Neville just said we’d made a good start. But he hates us.

Yea but his body language when he said it was all wrong

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

WTF that should be 0-1

building up to say something about naivety.

 

[glacierSpurs]

My God, I'm conceded to concede already there. Brilliant Ben Davies

Ben Davies

Gentle Ben!

 

[JoaoPereira]

that's awful pressing. Brennan and Richy man pressing same man, midfielders not tracking runners, Porro caught completely out of position.

 

[Col_M]

Ben Davies was brilliant there.

 

[Athenspur]

I like what Porro gives to this team, but there are times I wish we had a defender actually capable of defending on the right side. Thank fk for Ben Davies on that play.

 

[Spursberg]

omg we are so open at the back

Before he nips down to the VAR machine and pours water in it.

He should have laid it across. He wasted it.

Yep. It's not about selfishness, it's about correct decision making.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Poor start. Just a continuation from Thursday so far. Passing the ball around aimlessly creating nothing, then give away easy opportunities to fall behind.

Yea I hope so too mate, he did ok for Everton up there and for Brazil, this injury he has was clearly effecting him this season physically and mentally, like Son, now he’s got it fixed hopefully we’ll see the best of him.

I don’t think he’s the answer for us long term but I think he can offer us more than he has so far in a Spurs shirt.

 

[knowlespurs]

Gordon killing us on the break

 

[Dr Know]

Ben can’t play the high line. He always seems to play the opposition onside

 

[rossdapep]

He should have laid it across. He wasted it.

We kept doing that against WH and no-one was willing to shoot.

Richy clearly already had his mind made up. That's fine
