Match Threads Watford vs Spurs - Match Thread

[Cavehillspur]

Dive, cheating fucks

 

[Wsussexspur]

To be fair to winks he isn’t a DM... problem is bit like Jenas I have no idea what type of midfielder Winks is meant to be

 

[Dr Know]

Should have booked him for diving

 

[Phomesy]

Should be card for diving

 

[spursfan77]

So poor in the final third

We need a striker. It’s fucking stupidity not to have another one. When we don’t win today it will be even more evidence of the need for one.

 

[nedley]

Dele needs to figure out a weight of pass.

Shocking lately.

 

[jonnyp]

That's a different point to the first one

Doesn't matter if it's for a goal or a penalty. An arm getting hit in an unnatural position is handball now. Ergo, that was a penalty according to the rules.

 

[stov]

Piss off aurier

 

[DiamondLites]

Awful from Dele, so many moves have broken down with him

 

[Phomesy]

Got no out ball or plan

 

[The Apprentice]

I’m not sure Moura has had the ball under control once yet.

 

[rez9000]

"The assistant spotted that before Michael Oliver"

Riiiiiiight....

 

[freeeki]

The **** with the drum can fuck off

 

[COYS Forever]

Dele shouldn’t be a guaranteed starter for us.

 

[Wsussexspur]

First 15 mins we were excellent without really creating a clear cut chance.. but now Watford are really exposing our lack of midfield

 

[paulcumpstone]

Moura has been fucking dreadful so far. Totally useless as a forward. 0 hold up play

 

[Johnny J]

Alli's all round game is poor. He's capable of brilliance but his control, decision-making and passing are most of the time rubbish.

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

Started well but now back yo giving the ball away too easily

 

[Marty]

I don't care how close the Watford player was when Lucas flicked it, that has to be a penalty when his arm is that far from his body. It's a completely different situation to Sissoko in the CL final, not least where the ball actually hits. Forearm in that position has to = handball.

 

[JayB]

Winks will be exposed today. Almost a
4-1-4-1

Both Poch and Jose seem to have been under the outright delusion that he can be an effective No. 6. Jose has explicitly identified him as a “positional midfielder” and I think it’s quite clear that Poch planned his transfer business around the idea that Winks would play at the base of the diamond.

It’s total fantasy, he’s never in a million years a true No. 6, and the managers’ belief in the fantasy seems to have prevented us from going into the transfer market and rectifying the most obvious area to improve the team. It’s infuriating.
