Watford VS Tottenham Saturday Jan 1st 2022 @3PM

[Cranston]

Come on.

Just a bit of quality please.

COYS.

 

[Kekerinho]

We have been for 99% of Contes reign.

Same players you see

Bollocks
We’ve improved and there’s no doubt about that

A few times? I'll need to see some stats on it but it's looked like a fuckload to me, and 'some good some poor' is a very positive outlook since to me it's minimum 80% useless and maybe 20% somewhat dangerous, and even some of them are because of deflections.

Conte's wing backs are given LOADS of license to attack. Hakimi got 7 goals 8 assists in Serie A last season, we all remember how Marcos Alonso thrived under him as well. Conte's teams are definitely very structured and with little room for 'flair', but the total lack of threat from our wing backs is not a tactical issue, it's a personnel one.

Maybe in teams that can defend, his wing backs have more freedom

As I’ve said, I’m more concerned with Son being turned into Dele

Cant just blame Royal. Absolutely no creativity or movement in midfield.

He's bottled countless good, clear 1v1 oppos and his crosses have been poverty.

 

[ArcspacE]

More VAR corruption against Spurs - shock horror

 

[prinmemo]

Funny how most games you would have to work fucking hard to get completely free on the right hand side as a fullback/wingback, but this game we have Royal open every single attack and we still can't get any single bit of dangerous attacking play from it.

I thought Royal delivered a few nice crosses. The issue is that Watford have everyone in the area. Add the two penalties that should have been called.

When we score a goal we will end up with 4.

 

[mummy]

Referee made a sign of the cross as he entered the field of play just now. Looks like even God's against us.

 

[peter merison]

You okay hun?

You are an odd little person , sometimes nice, sometimes strange.

For certain parts of certain matches but not really collectively or other than results wise

 

[Football Chap]

Hopefully better 2nd half COYS!!

 

[thinktank]

Be nice if they came out and played like they actually wanted 4th.

 

[Dudski]

I know I'm guilty of knocking the conspiracy theories about refs/var etc but the wrestling match with Harry in the penalty area was so clearly ignored that I'm beginning to wonder....

I wonder if there isn't a tendency by officials to avoid making what might be a decisive call. In this case they call either the foul on Kane or the one on Dier and it goes from being a tight nil-nil game in the hands of the players to probably being over. In some ways you don't want a call to take the game out of the player's hands but you can't just ignore obvious fouls either.

Listening to the Irish commentator like

If you expect(ed) a 180 degrees change just lol

He's given wing backs freedom IMO, they're just showing a lack of quality.

I am getting worried about Son though. Increasingly just invisible in games.

 

[ArcspacE]

Please take PEH off

Asking the football gods not to punish him for being part of this.

 

[BAE32]

Davinson Sanchez receiving the ball in an offside position, there's something new for 2022!

 

[thinktank]

Son... if regs gives and goes, looking to run in behind, maybe it's an idea to turn and play a through-ball.

Just spitballin' here.

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

Look if we can not construct actual attacking moves just fucking buy Traore and let him go fucking Forest Gump. Let Kane and Son pick up the bits
