Woolwich v Tottenham Hotspur - September 1st 2019 16-30

[Cranston]

Also, and I don't like to slag the side off, but Poch gets a lot of praise for developing young players. Well, he's not developing Sanchez. In fact, he's fucking him over by moving him about and getting him to play in different positions.

Stick him in one place and let him learn his craft.

And play fucking Aurier.

 

[Spaniel]

I'm totally at a loss to understand why Ceballos manhandling Alli wasn't a penalty - to me it was a more obvious foul in the penalty area

Ref is a c**t.

Horror show from Sanchez today.

It just underlines the fact that you don't play players out of their natural position.

We tried it a couple of seasons ago playing Son as wing back. It didn't work.

Never again. City or the Scousers would have taken us to the cleaners.

Anyway, international break comes at a good time for us. Time to regroup and get players fit (although why they're crocked this early in the season is beyond me)

Got away with a draw. Can't be too upset considering our form & problems. 100% need a RB in January if we can. This break comes at a good time for us.

 

[Ealesy]

Lo Celso looked decent when he came on

 

[Borodin55]

Off for a pint.....parting thought...

 

[John Thomas]

I'm going to console myself knowing that if we were 2-0 down and came back to grab a point I'd probably be in a fairly decent mood right now

 

[Reidy]

We should have pushed the boat out for the Ajax lad.

Toby and Jan at present don't deserve new contracts. Can we find a VVD somewhere?

 

[COYSinnit]

Sissoko has scored 1 goal in 87 PL games and this cunt counts for half of our goal attempts? An abomination is what that is

 

[hiatus]

Should have signed a RB as a priority, will cost us big time imo.

I don’t even think it’s that as much as Poch refused to go to a back 3 today. Sissoko is much better suited to a RWB than Sanchez is to a RB.

Just weird I don’t get it did Poch get dumb or something?

 

[Merl]

Today shows why the likes of Sissoko and Lamela are squad players at best. Need to get Ndombele back asap and Lo Celso up to speed because Winks is overwhelmed in there at the moment.

Lamela and Sissoko would be good at bringing some late game intensity but lack the quality we need in games like this.

Fullbacks are a God awful mess at the moment.

 

[sammyspurs]

Remind me
Why did we pay 40 mil for Sanchez?

To replace the old first choice RB who we sold, and the new second choice RB who isn’t part of the club.
The new first choice RB is injured but instead of playing someone who is more suitable (Rose with Jan LB, or throw Davies there, or Sissoko) we went with Sanchez.

And stuck with it.

For 90 minutes.

There is too much negativness here, you melts!

I'm going to console myself with a wank

 

[BAE32]

Letting them back in it before half time was criminal.

Yeah we can all thank Danny for that bullshit. He has cost us so many goals recently its getting ridiculous - get big Ben back in the side.

 

[bk_spur]

I am really worried about Kane, it looks to me as if he'd declined greatly physically. Still getting goals and making nice passes but he is so slow, lumbersome and his balance/shielding used to be so much better.

He isn't winning any aerial balls these days and his pressing looks lethargic.
Early days in the season still, but it is worrying. He should not be losing 100% of aerial challenges against Sokratis and Otamendi. They simply aren't that tall...

 

[CroSpurs]

Winks was superb. Don't doubt yidoo

I don't think Lamela played that bad...

 

[Pippins]

Oh here we go... new pants please!!

Lucas would have changed the dynamic of this offense full stop. What the FUCK is Poch thinking????

if he does leave Poch should be thoroughly ashamed. There must be something in Kanes contract which demands he plays and not get subbed no matter what. The atmosphere sounded toxic

 

[hiatus]

I don’t think we bottled this match by any stretch. This is just what happens when you look at Winks and Sissoko and think “Yep, that’s my midfield” and look at Sanchez and say “Let’s play the guy struggling with CB positioning at RB!”

Seriously a draw here is great. If we’d have beaten Newcastle no one would have complained.
