And let’s play son through the middle because that will work!….You do understand the Arse set up not to outplay us but counter us/exploit set pieces? And that isn't hindsight. The moment we got countered and it was Saka vs Davies, we all knew what was going to happen. The moment we conceded our first corner it wasn't a question of if Vicario was going to have a player stood in front of him, it was a question of who.
If stats give you comfort fair enough, but I'm not doing any mental gymnastics to pretend we weren't thoroughly beaten tactically once again by yet another team that exploits our obvious weaknesses which we refuse to address. It's insanity at this point.
It's mentality as well if we had a team of Romero's todayYeah, it's a conundrum with Son.
When you compare our technical quality to the teams we are chasing, the gulf is wide.
Neeeds addressing big time in the summer.

May be an unpopular opinion today, but I'm still very much 'Ange In'... we need to buy some elite forwards at the very least this window
He supports Man CityAnd it’s Lee Dixon if I’m not mistaken which makes it even worse. He hardly ever goes against his beloved.
We don’t have a best midfieldInteresting what ange says. Imo he got selection wrong first half and i think he dont know who his best midfield is.
I think he could at least have dealt with the latter in time for this game!He's done fine for a club that finished 8th and just lost one of the best strikers in world football. Hopefully in the summer he addresses the weaknesses of the squad and his tactics.
Knows the problem"We are still not resilient enough, particularly in a transition moment or a set-piece. We allow far too easy access to our goal."
Yep he knows the problem, he's seen it all season.
Now let him try and fix it in the summer with players, coaching,system tweaks and then we'll see if there's improvements.
Nothing much is gonna change in the last 5 games
VDV just offside.
There is a multiverse where VDV goal isn't ruled offside and Kulu actually gets the penalty given and we go in half time 2-1 up.Not really.... Spurs being wasteful wasn't the story of the game.
Can someone please explain to me why our goal in the 1st half was off side please. Just come our from the ground.
Disgrace??Really had again this. Son is disgrace to the shirt at the minute
If you think a young swede coming directly from Allsvenskan is going to bring us to the next level overnight, you are in a position to be dissapointed. A man for the future, hopefully, but no way he is up to level overnight
You could literally draw any old bollocks line and call it onside or offside dependent on how you felt..... And no one could ever say you were wrong.I don’t think that he was but VAR so corrupt any close call we wouldn’t get as per the first penalty
why do you think that? they're so so bad?I think United will beat Woolwich.
Only because VAR said soVDV just offside.
