Match Threads Spurs vs Villa - Match Thread

[Sweech]

Winks and kwp good. Everyone else abysmal.

Thought NDombele was the only one actually creating out there.

 

[Gbspurs]

Offside or not, that's normally bread and butter for Harry...

Always takes him a little while to get his eye in. Maybe if we weren't so reliant on him to self create and score all our goals it wouldn't be such an issue!

 

[shelfmonkey]

Dogshit

 

[Indisguise]

Should be grateful we're only one down.

 

[mano-obe]

Didn't look offside to me. Kane normally buries that. We can't play much worse so I think we will come out Al guns blazing second half

The worrying thing is how easily they are carving us open. They seem to find huge amounts of space when they hit is on the counter

 

[The Apprentice]

KWP looks alright. Winks also.

The rest..hmmm.

Sissoko either plays deep or not at all. As an attacking option, he’s redundant.

Still can’t believe Rose’s defending for the goal. Sunday league stuff.

 

[kitchen]

Sissoko has been truly awful going forward. There is no end product at all and since Villa are parking the bus and counter attacking we ought to substitute him...

 

[JCRD]

We will win this 4-1

 

[Giovanni]

Missing the players that are out.

 

[Blue]

can't wait for a motivated eriksen with the addition of son, dele and lo celso to get a go

 

[WiganSpur]

To build on this, this is why keeping Eriksen is key as we didn't replace him with more than one creative player.

When everyone is available we should be aiming to line up with this front 6:

Kane
Eriksen Lo Ceslo Son/Alli

Ndombele Winks

We need more footballers in the team.

I've always maintained that if Eriksen is here and committed then we are on for the title but if not then we will be in a real struggle for 4th. It makes that much of a difference.

 

[tony0379]

Every single season I get sucked in and put him in my FT on the first day, triple captain - every time.

We are both in the **** club

 

[hutchiniho]

if poch wants to get the least out of harry kane hes doing a cracking job with this system

Moura and Lamela need to be wide, then cutting in.
Or keep the width and allow the opposite side to join Kane in the box.

Really hate this two up top with a 10. Kane, well everyone, is completely cramped for space

 

[yawa]

We'll still win this

I’d be very surprised unless we drop this diamond formation.

 

[Thewobbler]

Get eriksen on now.

 

[thebenjamin]

Next season will be the one where we see the real Lamela.

 

[fecka]

Kane hasn't looked like he'll score during pre-season either and it's all due to this bloody formation. How is it possible for Poch not to see how turgid and ineffective we are when we play the diamond?

 

[JKendall13]

Winks looks wonderful, the rest a bit naff.

 

[panoma]

Well that wasn't very good. I still believe we will win this. Have to get Eriksen on for Sissoko for the second half though.

 

[Singh_Yid]

We will win this 4-1

I'll buy you dinner if that happens. More likely the other way round.

 

[paulcumpstone]

sanchez needs a real kick up the arse, needs to look at toby when he has the ball and looking at passing options, sanchez does nothing but pass the buck. nowhere near good enough if he aint ever going to take responsibility out there, not convinced by him at all

 

[kcmei]

same as last season. Doing fk all with the possession
