Tottenham Vs Stoke: Match Thread

[paulcumpstone]

well done eric dier, done everything right so far, made runs into the box, and played the clever pass into walker than created the corner.shows he can do more than sit.impressed

Dier shouldn't be anywhere near the pitch... Oh wait.

 

[Spurs1]

I dont want to be a dick but :

No matter the outcome of the game today, I can't understand Dier being picked in midfield.[/QUOTE

 

[hughy]

He loves an early season goal...

 

[midspur]

Why oh why would he play Dier as CM at home against Stoke?

 

[Arthur Hucksake]

Great movement from Dier there. We have scored from a corner.... wow.

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

How so? Seems like a good reward for the lad playing well.

 

[nightgoat]

Always important to score first and early against a team like Stoke. They'll have to commit more forward now.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

How the fuck is that not a card

 

[nightgoat]

How is that not a booking for Afellay?

 

[kitchen]

Eriksen's delivery from corners has been 10x better than last season. Hopefully he can keep it up.

Does Dier have the makings of a really good defensive midfielder?

I dont want to be a dick but :

But you're are being a dick.

Its from a set piece ffs!

He still wouldn't be my choice for midfield, much prefer him at CB. Scoring from a set piece doesn't change my opinion on that one iota.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

There's a few on here that it doesn't hurt enough when we lose and when a player underperforms. That's also fine but please don't have a pop at us that really do give a shit when we get rolled over twice by the likes of Stoke last year and Ryan mason plays in both and gets slaughtered yet plays again today. It means more to a few of us on here.... You know who you are

I know we all say daft shit, but you really do push the envelope at times.

Just a hindsight dick.

 

[Cravenspurs]

Whenever Kyle gets beaten he does that

 

[UpTownSpur]

The early signs from the season are that we're a lot more defensively solid and will concede less goals this season.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Walker wrong side. Again!

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Poor defending from Walker. Poor reading.

 

[YID016]

Harsh yellow for Walker.

 

[paulcumpstone]

dont see a yellow card in that.
