Match Threads Spurs Vs Wolves

[Saoirse]

That's alright then.

Most expensive tickets in world football.

That one is a criticism I very much share. I'm very much minded to no longer pay those prices next season, it's just a family situation atm which is putting me off.

Spurs statistics.... It is the first time Conte has lost three league games in a row since his days managing Atalanta in November 2009... we're just smashing every managers record at the moment ?

And it's Man C next

My biggest surprise this season is the realisation that Dier is probably the on field captain (obviously Lloris has the armband, but a keeper can't affect much)
It can't be a coincidence that when Dier is fit then the likes of Sanchez and Davies look competent, yet when Dier is injured then we look a complete shambles. Despite Romero, who is arguably the much better player, coming into the Dier spot recently.

We will probably win against them, and we will be so happy, feel like we are back on track a bit. And then lose against Burnley.

Only 4 more points for safety...but your never know with this lot

It is entertaining, so long as you stop taking it all so seriously. It's a game. If you get so upset at losing a game that it ruins your mood for days on end, while wins are quickly forgotten, a) quit that game for now b) have a look at why you're so negative about things, because it probably isn't just football.

I wouldn’t say it ruins my mood, just adds nothing to it. I actually feel nothing towards us for the first time I can remember. It just feels like I’ve wasted 90 minutes of my life. It would actually feel better if I did have some kind of emotion to us losing.

Spurs fans have justifiable reasons to be pissed off at the moment.

He needs to forget his beloved wing back system for the next game. It ain't working and it's never going to work for these players. 442 for next game, drop Moura, son on left with Kane and Bergwijn up front. Give citeh something to think about anyway.

How can Bergwijn be part of any solution?

Arsenal currently favoured for 4th, on course for 67 points. So we might need another 32 from our last 16 games - 10 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats, or 9 wins, 5 draws and 2 defeats. Not that likely, but not impossible either. The main aim is to secure our return to Europa League football, or even better to do so through the FA Cup. Most people would've taken that when Conte was hired; it's been forgotten that there was no real expectation of 4th because he had such a good run at the start.

Missed the game today, not a good result at all. What did I miss apart from that Hugo “punch” for the first goal ?‍ Only seen a small snippet of the first goal and he made a right **** of that! How did we play? Can’t be bothered sifting through the thread? Shite again? Probably

Ticket prices, for sure. The rest of it, meh. It's a football club at the low end of a cycle. Literally every team has them within their expected range. We had a good spell punching well above our weight, we're punching below it right now, we're doing the right things to turn it around again over the next few years. It's not like we're in financial trouble or nowhere near Europe.

Conte got it wrong today. No doubt... and he could see it. It was too late...

BUT !! ... some things you can improve and correct with training and tactics... some things you can't. It's about instinct and natural ability...

The personal mistakes and countless sloppy passes today were just a lack of quality and bad decision making... and it's something Conte knows... we have way to many players who don't know what to do when things go wrong or we have a bad spell... simple things you learn from youth football on... when in trouble kick the ball away... when going forward don't give away the ball in the middle of the pitch... if you pass across the pitch make sure you hit your target.. when trying to win the ball don't be late...

I stopped counting today. The amount of mistakes was shocking... it can only be corrected with more quality players... good players who know how to handle pressure/bad form and to make the right decisions. They find a way to close games and to get points when not playing well. Being clinical and lack of leadership... that's our biggest problem.

We are fragile when certain players are missing. And we only need 2-3 of our good players gone before we look ordinary. Especially when we have a dip in form.

Think this group blew out all the ligaments in their knees about 2 weeks back.

Before today I was expecting 4 points from our in-hand games to get level with 4th, but I thought we’d win today. Oh dear. Could still be done but unlikely.

 

[oohaahedgar]

I’m not going g to read the moaning but I’m not worried. Top 4 is gone, FA cup is a very real possibility this year. I trust Conte ? and I think he’s proven beyond doubt that he knows what he’s doing.
We have such an unbalanced squad it’s unreal. We need some players brought in who have the personality to play for him. We’ve got too many players that lack ability/bottle in that squad. It’s obvious who needs to be moved on and who stays. 4 players in the summer and we will be back. Centre half, RWB, midfielder and Striker. Ideally a LWB another CH as well.
I think the style of play is good, take out the donkeys and the players who just aren’t up to it and we’ll be fine.
The fact that it’s obvious is a real plus.

 

[Saoirse]

Probably controversial but I genuinely think the crowd made a difference today. Their reaction at FT against Southampton perpetuates exactly the type of nerves and mistakes we saw early on today. Most people on this planet would be nervous walking out to face that again.

Not good.
First 25/30mins was just filled with errors.
Sanchez carried this on for most of the match, winks not far behind but did get a little bit less shit when we went to a 3.

Wolves didn't even need to defend well, just just couldn't get anything going today at all.
