Spurs v Liverpool 16 Dec 20:00

[VoiceOfThePoshSeats]

Lucas --> Bergwijn
Ndombele --> Lo Celso
Reguilon --> Davies

HAVE to be our subs throughout that second half.

Please. I cant watch anymore of this rubbish

 

[OakgroveSpurs]

I'll take a 1-1, we're being completely dominated and cannot play through the press 98% of the time.

 

[bfwolf]

We're very lucky to be 1-1. We are getting badly outplayed. Bergwijn is doing fuck all. Would like to see Ndombele on for him. Play Ndombele in the middle where Lo Celso is currently playing and let Lo Celso take Bergwijn's position.

 

[ChrissyWaddleShares]

Worst ever. Has moaned about spurs tactics and spurs players non-stop since kick off.

He’s really gonna be moaning at the end when we win by two goals.

 

[Phomesy]

I'll take that at half time for sure.

We obviously came to give them the ball but what was a bit strange is that we didn't look nearly as composed or in control of our box and out wide as we did against City/Chelsea and Woolwich.

Maybe they've been given very specific instructions which is taking away some of their initiative and confidence. There were a couple of times where we won tight 2v2 or 2v3 duels but when the ball broke into space we didn't chase it - preferring to hold position and just allow the oncoming Pool player to recover the ball we'd just won.

Confidence grew as the half wore on though and we seem to getting on top late. Goal came at the best possible time for us and worse possible time for them.

COYS!

 

[Airfixx]

Moussa is playing surprisingly high up the pitch so far. I'm not sure what we are hoping to gain from this.

he's got us up the pitch on many occasions....

 

[kuntardi]

The quality of our defensive players are starting to show its usual flaws.
We are getting suffocated and couldnt find a way through. Thank God for Son though.
Wonder what Jose would tell them now.

Lucas --> Bergwijn
Ndombele --> Lo Celso
Reguilon --> Davies

HAVE to be our subs throughout that second half.

I am not sure about Lucas for Stevie. We would be losing high work rate in defence.

 

[iz futbal]

I get it, it's 1-1

but this absolutely cannot be the plan. we are being destroyed, letting them have so much of the ball, their centre backs at our box! they're getting loads of shots away! it's not sustainable!

If their centrebacks start playing near our box, then one easy counter and they are fucked.

 

[southport]

Sissoko outperforming Hojberg

 

[ILSpur]

I think Davies has been decent enough while not being highly dynamic. I hate to say it though but Gio just looks to be more a a liability than anything right now. Defensively, he is almost non-existent.

Bergwijn hasn't been very good either, but I just wonder what Lucas can actually offer more.

Is this an opportunity for Dele?

 

[MiddxSpur]

For all their possession their goal scoring chances have been pretty limited.

Still top of the league.

In Jose we trust.

 

[ArcspacE]

Please, Jose - change the system we’re second best to every ball

 

[Bazali]

Im.watching endless liverpool replays

[hiatus]

This is the plan, man, it’s how we played against Man City, Chelsea etc.

It’s Mourinho ball, innit.

We had much more control against City and Chelsea than this.

 

[ryuzakiluke100]

A strong second half with fresh NDombele can exploit and open the game for us, now that we did the job to withstand a fresh Liverpool strong start.

 

[Luvf]

I think this match is not good for my mental health.

 

[To Dare Is To Do.]

For all their possession their goal scoring chances have been pretty limited.

Still top of the league.

In Jose we trust.

Nah they’ve had good chances but shot straight to Lloris.

 

[SouthStand Billy]

Son scoring without a Kane assist, who'd have thunk it.

 

[Redcoast]

I’ll take Dele over Bergwijn at this point
