If that counts as criminal then what does Moura the hat trick hero and the CL final come under ? Has to be treasonable at least.

Woolwich who we had surpassed and we’re going to smash to bits 8-0 but took 1pt off last year?
Next you’ll be telling be the Wembley match was a display of epic proportions and glowing football just because of the euphoria of Hugo’s penalty save.
It wasn’t. It was a match littered with Spurs shooting its bollocks off and retreating into a little ball sucking its thumb the second we conceded.
Then trying its hardest to lose after doing all the hard work to get the equaliser.
But we DREW.....against a rival!!!!
WOHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOO
Why should anyone have anything bad to say about the game or mentality unless we lose.....strange outlook
No that was brilliant tactics apparently because Kane could get out of bed on his own and limp to the pisser
It’s the daily mail Sammy. . . Take a morning off and relax mate

Ahhhh the default line…….same Daily Mail that said were signing Ndombele and Lo Celso?
And that said Eriksen wanted out?
Same Daily Mail no one would have any problem believing if the story was about how Poch wanted Levy to bid 100M for Dybala but Levy said no.....
Haha. This must be what the youngsters call 'trolling' - right??
Im 42 mate, thats why I know how people are….this story cant possibly be true because its in the Daily Mail right...?
United interested in £70m Eriksen if Tottenham agree to sell playmaker
Manchester United have been asked to be kept informed over the future of Tottenham's Christian Eriksen as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer aims to boost their midfield creativity next season.
Basically, if the swap rumour has legs, then Poch has mugged us off a bit, so the procedure is as follows:
1 - Close your Eyes and hope nobody takes it up
2- When they do, dismiss the source
I still live in North London and I talk to a lot of Spurs supporters.
Poch seens to get a far easier time of it on this forum than is the
case of the wider fanbase.
His tactics and somewhat bizarre use of substitutes have been called in to question for the last two seasons.
Leaving Lucas on the bench for the CL final was the final straw for a few.

Yes they reported stuff that was right AFTER it had been reported by other credible sources first. They are a rag, basically as bad as the express.Im 42 mate, thats why I know how people are….this story cant possibly be true because its in the Daily Mail right...?

They don’t have a clue, they are the journalism equivalent of Ricky Sacks, they just report what is reported elsewhere no matter how shit the source.
Find me a credible source that is covering this story and I’ll shut up and leave you to it.
We should play a 4-3-3 with Kane in the striker role and Son and Moura on the wings. Give Son and Moura freedom to roam, but focus on quick strikes where they can get behind defenders on the winds and create havoc.
Those two with Kane are tailor made for it!
Unless of course a team decides to sit back and not allow any space for Son and Lucas to run into..
No way of knowing, but I think we would have won the CL with Moura as a starter and Kane off the bench. I was bewildered with Poch’s decisión to start Kane when he was not fit and in even worse form. I am not sure what happened there.
I just can’t figure out how you don’t start the guy that got hat trick in the previous CL game to send you to the final.
It is such a foolish decision in my mind that I wonder if something else was going on.
Those guys can score in that scenario, too. They’re all around great players.
Not sure..
I still think it has to be one of Son or Lucas. Though it's dependent on opposition. Luckily, we have a pretty damn good squad when everyone is fit to make it a headache for Pochettino.
I take your point but it works for liverpool. Salah and Mane both made their names running in to space and finishing chances but they are equally good at breaking down stubborn defences.
In no way am I suggesting moura and son are exactly the same type of players but I wouldn't be averse to giving them a go against teams that sit back.
They are 2 of our best dribblers (courtesy of your stats) which should help to create space in itself.
Whatever happens, we do have options now which is exciting.
Salah and Mane are ALOT better than Lucas though. They have a lot more strings to their bow than Lucas does. They also rely on creativity from their full backs and not Eriksen (or Lamela) like we do. Which is probably why we haven't fully changed to a 433, because we can't properly fit Eriksen in along with Son and Lucas. Though maybe this is why we have signed Lo Celso, who IS capable of creating from deep successfully.
It'd be pointless playing them against teams that sit back. Because they wouldn't get any space. Lucas only works well in space. If he hasn't got space, he's pretty much pointless. Son, to his credit has one hell of a shot on him and could probably hit them from distance and one would eventually fly in. Again though, Son is ALOT different to Mane and Salah, who both have a much better control and close control than he does.
No point comparing us or our players to Liverpools. We couldn't be further away from having the same type of players to allow us to play the same system. They have creative full backs and rely on them to create, we don't. They have a defensive midfielder to shield their defence whilst their central midfielders work tirelessly in the middle. We don't.
We'd be best to go back to a 4231 with two players in the midfield who aim to control the game. Utilise our full backs as outlets to stretch the game. Have a creative player outwide who can either cut in or create from a wide position and someone who can get goals from behind Kane.
Can't really argue with that, as I did say I know they are all very different players.
Just a side note though a 4231 is actually the system I would like to see us play as its the only system that allows for an out and out creative midfielder right behind Kane with Son & Moura either side.
When im saying "play kane with son and moura" I don't mean play 4-3-3.
Still think it should be one or the other when we play 4231 too.
Lo Celso, Dele and Son as an interchangeable 3 behind Kane would be my preferred choice.
