Match OMT: Bournemouth (H), Sunday 31st December, 14:00

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think whether it's a tactical flaw or otherwise what the last 2 games have shown me is there is a real lack of fluid attacking play. I've watched Bournemouth and Brighton give options to the player on the ball,make intelligent little runs, create gaping spaces in our defense and I don't see any of that in our forward play. It's just all a bit too gung ho then when the opposition is in position we have fuck all flair to make something happen.
 
We're so bad it's a joke. Another game where we can only sustain 20mins of reasonable football. We can't play this way and ultimately it will cost Ange his job. You either adapt or get the sack.

Not sure why people are surprised we’re so shite today.

We’re missing Romero, VDV, Bissouma/Sarr, Maddison and Kulusevski from this line up.

We’ve also got a horrendously out of form trio of Son, Johnson and Richarlison playing up top. Although, an argument could be made that this is just Richarlison/Johnson’s level.

Our front 3 needs a complete overhaul if we’re going to make the most out of Angeball. It’s just nowhere near good enough.

I’m not taking the piss but I reckon the weather doesn’t help. It’s grim out tbh

Not sure what options there are though. Except to drop to low block and counter and Ange isn't going to do that...

But it seems, all we are doing is allowing teams to cut us open, then hope they miss their chances.
This is not sustainable, if they pull a goal back they will go on a win it.
We have done nothing, we get the ball, give it away and hope the opposition miss it.

You need to have that in your locker though. I've seen some of the best sides in the world drop into a low block to protect a lead. Can't just keep playing kamikaze football with this many injuries, that's not brave its fucking stupid

I really don't like digging the players out. There's no point laying into players that simply aren't good enough to do what's needed.

But when someone is meek and timid, it just grates.

Anyway, here's hoping he shuts me the fuck up and has a great second half.

agreed. the worst thing is he might actually be decent if he wasnt such a fucking melt. youd cringe watching him if he wasnt playing for spurs. but because he plays for spurs its fucking frustrating.
