An offensive player and drop Eriksen deeper because he passes the ball quickly.

Why have we not got any players who can pass the ball quick except Eriksen though? What the fuck is that about? It must be a choice in how the players are trained, we play the ball so laboriously, give the opposition so much time to set themselves in position, it's been present as a weakness for years to be honest and I just don't get why we do it.
 
We really do look like AVB Spurs with all the possession and no end result. It may take a Bale-like worldie from Eriksen, Son or Dele to get out of this one.
 
Son. Shit
Kane. Shit
Sissoko. Shit
Wanyama. Shit
Dele. Anonymous

Must win game and that’s the performance these guys are putting in. Fucking fuming.
 
Disgusting first half. Slow, turgid, clueless.
So many anonymous performances, Son, Dele, Kane, EVEN Verts was sloppy.
Wanyama/Sissoko midfield NOT working.
I would leave Jan out though, he probably risking his gingery ankle right now
 
Fucking weak minded bottling bastards ,sissoko and wanyama are fucking useless put son with them as well most inconsistent player in the league dreadful today . Poch needs to start buying some winners because are mentality at the moment is of losers and bottlers .

We have, they're just injured.

Dembele, whilst he does hold onto the ball, is very very good at the accurate quick pass that eliminates two opponents from the game and Winks is out injured.

Wanyama and Dier are primarily holders and are only really used to give the better players the ball (Eriksen, Dembele, Winks) and Sissoko isn't really a central midfielder so we can't really blame him.

We need a complete overhaul of central midfield next season.
 
its just all very very predictable. no balls into space, always to feet then they stop and turn on it. its like that walking football for codgers on the bank advert
