Match Threads Spurs vs Norwich - Match Thread (FA Cup)

& the people digging out Ali, haha, he hasn't been half as bad as some are making out.

Yeah he has.

I'd 100% bring on Parrott for Lucas here for the 2nd half. We need a striker in the box for Jan and Aurier's crosses. Lucas isnt that presence.

Dele or Bergwijn off for Parrott for me.
Moura has done more with the ball than both of those 2.

GLC having another superb game.
Can’t wait for Kane and Son to be back and at the end of GLC’s through balls.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Nice try wide boy, I doubt you even play for your own toilet paper.

 

[Deleted member 27995]

Yeah he has.

Nah he hasn't. You watch his off the ball movement, be nice if someone could find him with a cross. Tracked back alot in the last ten as well. Helps if you watch the game.

 

[Bobbins]

I’d really like to see two of Lamela/Parrot and Ndombele/Gedson for Alli/Winks and Moura - feel like they could drive us on to another couple of goals.

We’re winning - I want to see is push the game and win decisively. The team needs it.

 

[Johnny J]

Once again?

Yeah he was solid literally once before.

 

[slartibartfast]

Once again?

He means he's solid, not phase shifting between dimensions like he normally does lol.

Why is Dion Dublin talking about us like he's analysing a house?

Im hoping he'll play the MOTD theme on a Dube.

I actually think Alli has done alright. There have been a couple of moments where he was horribly indecisive with the ball and lost it too easily, which I am assuming is what is sticking in people's minds, but he has made about a 1000 runs in that half to try and occupy defenders and open space for others and there have been four or five occasions where his team mates have completely failed to spot putting him in and having a very decent attacking situation. He has also done some decent back to goal work at times in holding it up and linking play.

It's been a passable job as a No.9 so far, which is what we are looking for.

 

[allpaths]

Once again?

thought he was good against wolves, but im probably just making that up

 

[bubble07]

When they analysis this game after I would love to know what Lucas says to justify what he did

By not passing he effectively missed an open goal

 

[hellava_tough]

We've done okay this half all things considered

Would love to see what Troy could do for 45 minutes though

 

[ardiles]

I know him outside football. He looks nothing like he's does on the pitch

You mean he’s wearing a mask?

 

[Bobbins]

I wonder how many people's perception of that half are coloured by the very norwich cheerleading commentary.

We should be at very least 2 up.

The co-commentator is a joke - literally everything he’s said apart from two comment on Gio has been negative. The way he talks about our play and the club in general you’d think we were in the relegation zone and 3-0 down in the game.

 

[Wig]

I've been really underwhelmed by Lucas for sometime.

Not a good enough starter for us when everyone is fit, that's for sure.

I just wish Lucas had that bit of awareness sometimes, the head-up ability to pass to another player in a better position rather than just head-down always trying to shoot

 

[slartibartfast]

Gosh we would be shit without Lo Celso, only flair player we have atm, genuinely can't remember Alli doing one thing well?

Bergwijn has done ok.

He just looks extremely slow

 

[sparx100]

He works hard but constantly bumbles and gives the ball away like all our front 3. Rather than flick the ball bloody just control it and play it off. Every flick basically goes to Norwich.

Skipp already a better player than winks
