What a Lame Prick!
100 % agree on the bolded. Unfortunately it’s
a byproduct of having such a fairly young and new squad.
The players who are more mature aren’t exactly known for their calm temperament (mainly Romero). Son being back will hopefully help them settle a bit more. Although he also tends to get dragged into it.
Yesterday was one of the few instances I didn’t mind the Hojberg for Skipp move. It’s a shame that his maturity and composure also come with him making mistakes that tend to cost us.
Agree, he's a snidey little prick... Good comparison with those other players btw.
There must just be some players who other players simply detest... He's definitely one of them.
A pure wind up merchant 'cos that's the only tactic he can utilise to compensate for his lack of ability...
Thing is, we don't have to stoop to that level, we are LITERALLY SO MUCH BETTER than that, so that's on us, and our players.
Because he did clip him. Not enough for the big prick to fall over. I thought Brentford were a disgrace last night. The time wasting was doing my head in but it’s funny how when it went 3-1 they were losing their minds because we were taking our time. It always comes back to bite you in football at some point.
Brentford are a team with no class. The disrespect by Maupay and Toney with the darts thing got shoved right up them. I love banter but that’s disrespect.
That was fucking chaos last night and a good example of where we still really need to improve. When the tempo slows down and mistakes start creeping in we become too easy to play against. We also lose our heads too easily. These will be things Ange notices, and he clearly got the message across at half time because first 20 minutes of the second half we were sensational.
So long as we keep winning these chaotic games while we refine the style, we'll be fine.

Brentford are actually pretty good.
Put Wissa and Mbueno in that team and it would be very dangerous.
The lad who came on and played on the right was a handful as well.

They were disgusting last night, couldn't really believe it to be honest. So glad to have won and file that mingin team away until next season.
They could be pretty useful result wise, but all the "tactics" last night were absolutely horrible to watch.
Although a good ref would have sorted that out early. But then, are there any good refs?
Don't think he had a knock, think it was just about rebalancing. Skipp was excellent first half, think I saw he had the highest first half pass accuracy and he made 2 goal-saving challenges to keep us in the game. Was unlucky to come off but Bentancur looked off it and Ange prefers PEH at the base of midfield and bringing PEH on means you can afford to take Skipp off and bring somebody more creative in to the middle. PEH also had a good game bar a couple of mistakes. Both miles better than Bentancur yesterday, probably still getting back to full match sharpness/fitness though tbf
Declan Rice told PEH last season that “no one likes us”, I assume “us” is Tottenham.
When he scored last night, was it Madison strolling behind him, not sure ,but not much effort to catch him."Neil Maupey hadn't scored enough goals to have his own celebration so he had to nick mine"
So over the half way point of the season and I’m pretty sure Bissouma is still the only player to have received a card for simulation.
Nothing against the decision to card him, he dived. But the fact that one rule seems to apply to us and a different rule for everyone else is an absolute joke.
Horrible , forget any idea of signing Toney as well.
We are too soft with refs. I dont know who had the captain's armband on yesterday. But if it was Romero, then it probably needs to be Maddison as his English is better. We got more protection because of Kane. Madders need to reprise that role.
I can’t get why VAR didn’t check, they check every damn thing these days.
It is why I've been calling out for us to recruit older pros in this window and the next. Our players are too naive. Not their fault, they are young, but we need more strong characters.
