Tottenham Hotspur v. Watford - 19.10.2019 @ 3 PM

[Raiders]

Wait...what? Are you serious? I had no idea.

Thanks for letting me know! This was information I was completely oblivious to previous to your post.

Sorry, if I misunderstood, were you being sarcastic?

 

[Bazali]

Honestly got to feel for Watford here, we got handed that by the ref

Who do you support again?

 

[Jenny Talia]

Right but if we sold Eriksen, Jan, Rose or Toby last year or 2 years ago you’d be going off on how we’re a selling club....

Not sure about Jan, but with hindsight we should have taken the fee for the other 3 and invested in replacements.

Bayern Munich drew 2-2 away to Augsburg.

Ref saved us, but on a side note why do teams get away with time wasting?

Could be something learned from the rugby there 90 minutes game finishes both teams can’t timewaste! Time stops re injuries.

That ref was corrupt. There something dodgy going on

I rarely blame the refs, but it was outrageous today. It was like he just wanted VAR to call the entire game...I think he blew the whistle four times the entire game.

 

[Borks]

Bought one but it looks like we needed 2.
If we were going to let Llorente go we needed to replace him.
After what snowkarl said above about Sessegnon I will throw in left back as well.

We bring in N'Dombele and Lo Celso, both who can play in CM yet we're under-invested there. We buy a LB/LW replacement, but we've under-invested because Snowkarl doesn't think he's good enough? Llorente I agree with but you will struggle to name a decent striker that wants to sit on the bench until the 85th minute every game.

The only position truly under-invested in is RB and that's on Poch for falling out with Walker and Trippier.

Was at the game so didn't see, apparently they should have had a penalty?

There was a few very borderline ones. The main one being in the first half when Vertonghen slid in. I thought it was 50/50 could go either way, think it was one where they decided it was best to go with the on field ref's decision as it wasn't clear and obvious. Personally if I was the on field ref I think I would have given it but can understand why it wasn't overturned. Actually not too dissimilar to Rose's in the first half or one in the second (can't remember who got brought down) where you could tell they were sort of looking for it.

Gazzaniga you cunt

Theres only one cunt around here

...and, for what it's worth, for the pricks in the South Stand lower looking at me like I'd just raped their nan and pissed on her body for DARING to stand up and have the TEMERITY to sing during the first half... shame on you... I hope you enjoyed your fucking day out...
I'm sorry it wasn't as pleasing as the American Football... like you'd hoped!

....oh, and you can stick your fucking selfie stick up your Arse!

 

[thuder]

Still standing by that comment?

Yes

Clubs can’t win we get a manager who’s/ was the dogs signs a 5 year contract so nobody can poach him or at least in theory can’t but if they do we get compo but a good manager down! Things don’t work out well before the 5 years we want/should get rid but can’t cos we gave him a big contract so we didn’t lose him thinking we were doing the right thing now we end up paying the contract anyway and our GOOD manager isn’t very good anymore.....

Think rolling yearly contracts are the way forward!

Then there would be loads of pay rises for the manager every year as he can leave on a free at the end of every season.

I think Lo Celso is expected to play further forward.

 

[r-u-s-x]

Terrible performance again.

How was that not a handball on Dele but it was on Sissoko in the CL Final? Also, why take Lucas off so early when he didn’t play any international games?

It was Dele shoulder, that's legal

I’m not blind we were fucking shit and lucked out

I was right on top of that thought it was a dive to be honest.

Righto

It only took him 80 odd minutes to realize that he was in a football match against a shite team

 

[Gatsby]

Today was unacceptable. We should be putting teams like Watford to bed easily, they were spanked 8-0 by City! We showed fight for the last 5 minutes, what happened to the other 85!

Certain players need to go now. Rose, Alderweireld and Aurier were all terrible. Sanchez I like, but is so error prone.

Glad to see Dele score. Don’t want to see a back 3 again.

 

[Gatsby]

Imagine back in August saying we’d get 4 points out of Southampton, Watford, Brighton and Newcastle.
