I appreciate their press is very good, but my God, our ball retention and passing is so fucking poor. Keep a hold of the ball FFS. So casual in possession.
He's been good so far? and he isn't to blame for the lack of possession in this game, it's a collective problem.Dier can’t play against pressing teams, he just can’t
In 1974 Ali fought the formidable foe George Foreman
Foreman was the pressure fighter dominating the early action seemingly allowed to land to the body at will but all through the fight Ali landed the better shots with a stinging one two every now and then, having been lured into a false sense of confidence Foreman who had underestimated his foe and and hadn't noticed his emptying gas tank, in the 7th he lands his best shot of the fight square on the jaw of Ali, Ali immediately clinched pulled Foreman firmly into the clinch and whispered in his ear "is that all you got George" Foreman realised that was all he had and shrank Ali grew and took him out a few minutes later.
We are rope a doping Wolves here, when you see Jose walk over to Nuno after about 60 minutes and whisper in his ear you will all know it's over.
don't be daft - the purpose of the match thread is to shit as many Spurs players as possible.I'm not usually one to post during a game, but can we have some Dier love? He's been excellent.
I'm sure the intent is not to lose possession going forward every time, I think the idea is there but we seem very nervy at the moment mentally struggling with Wolves pressure. hopefully Jose could calm things down.I don't like our style of play, we are sitting far to deep. They are of course a great team on the break and we've removed that aspect of the game by defending in own box. Problem is we can't connect two passes when we try to counter.
Agreed, I am in a weird situation at the moment with Aurier because even though he is playing well I still just HATE watching him play. His decision making is so erratic and infuriating that I just find him so frustrating to watch, although at the moment he is in a good patch of form I still always feel like he is going to do something daft. I can't help but wonder what Jose will do with that area in the next 12 months.And yet they have really one had one good chance all half.
It's classic Mourinho we are trying to break on them letting them have the ball then catching them with a counter in a blink of the eye
When we buy a proper attacking RB and get a true CDM next to Ndombele this will be class to watch.
For now we still have square pegs in round holes but this is better then the gash we have been served the last year or so
A friend in the States just emailed me that the NBC coverage of half time is completely awful. Says it wants to make him pule. Anyone over there tell what's going on?

Already looking forward to Dele Alli whispering in Adama Traore ear on 70th minute, "Is that all you have got?"In 1974 Ali fought the formidable foe George Foreman
