Spurs vs Leicester City - Sat 17th Sept 2022 - 5:30pm

[poch's coat]

We are dogshit.

I know we could finish this game joint top but we are dogshit.

 

[Hrytn]

Why is Romero not playing?

 

[Spaniel]

Sanchez and PEH don't belong in a top class team...and despite the goal, neither does Dier. Bring on Bissouma please and Spence.

 

[Pepperami]

Be nice to dominate a team at some point in the season.

 

[Gmspurs]

Except Conte CAN change shit.

He could admit that Perisic on the right hasn't worked and switch him back to the left, take Sess off for Spence on the right and replace Bentancur for Bissouma.

 

[sudoku]

Rich has been shit the bits of the game I have seen.
Persisic swapped to the left.
Please, please don't swap Royal for Sess.

 

[Starks]

Turns out Royal isn't the problem then.

 

[VonnegutBusy]

We have nobody in midfield dictating play, it's sloppy and unprofessional today quite frankly.

How hard is it to make basic passes? We are allowing a team in garbage form at the bottom of the league to dominate play against us at HOME.

It's utterly baffling to me.

Most teams dominate us possession-wise but more often than not we can punish them on the counter.

With our forwards and CMs in such shit form, with everything bouncing off them, we offer no threat in open play so Leicester get incentivised to push on and inevitably score.

 

[kingdawson]

our cms have been poor (particularly bentancur) along with Perisic, sanchez and Lenlet.

Sanchez and PEH don't belong in a top class team...and despite the goal, neither does Dier. Bring on Bissouma please and Spence.

PEH has been the better midfielder

 

[bonaspur23]

Turns out Royal isn't the problem then.

Is that really the conclusion people come to???

Need some lessons on correlation vs causation

 

[BROCKVILLE]

Defense has been a joke for years now.
And you get attacked for saying Lenglet was an uninspired signing.
He’s as bad as he was in Spain.
Fuck the board

 

[Kaz Hirai]

If sessegnon cant stand heat then stay out of kitchen. Udogie should be an improvement next season.

If Conte plays him, could be a 'club signing' (should he still be manager even by then)

 

[Ttonite]

If you’re going to defend then go old school, BLOODY get your midfield to man mark, Hojbjerg on Madison and Bentancur on Tillerman which limit s the spaces being created for the opposition. Don’t go crazy but please show a bit of bottle and most importantly enjoy the f@@king game. They all look so stiff and consumed with fear.

 

[Hampshire Spur]

Do miss the poch possession days I have to be honest.

 

[dondo]

We need 3 in the midfield mannnnnnn

We had 4 in the midfield for most of that half.
We need better quality on the ball in midfield

 

[Spaniel]

PEH has been the better midfielder

Still poor though

 

[tommyboyspurs]

got to be the most booring midfield in our history or up there at least

 

[Starks]

Is that really the conclusion people come to???

He gets criticised more than anyone usually. When he's usually not the biggest issue, if one at all.

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

We are as bad in possession as we were under Jose and Nuno.

We’re much better out of possession.

That's the only thing the Jose comparisons miss we were shit with the ball and without it. Now we are just shit with the ball....hurrah
