Sorry I love the bloke but Son up top against big centre backs is infuriating to watch. Nothing sticks, can't win anything in the air or to feet. Completely pointless in this game so far.
Been that way for years. Doesnt suit him. I dont know why we persist. Even if it means kulu in there to hold up possession. Maddison missing when things get tough, werner, johnson AWOL, midfield AWOL, udogie, porro gone off a cliff . Romero vdv worst ive seen them play.
We look like conceding every corner. Our standard of coaches is shocking. Jedinak, mason need removing
 
Let’s face it Spurs will win nothing under this manager as he does not know how to teach defence.Every ball into our box won cleanly by opposition.And please stop bigging up Verner because he is a walking disaster in front of goal.Big changes required and I predict we finish outside top 5
 
Do people still think we're a better team than we would be with Kane up front today? We miss his hold up play and quality so, so much, regardless of what you think about his pressing, or lack of.
We would be about the same I reckon. I mean look at him at Bayern... he is cursed as much as us. Spur blood don't go anywhere.

Well alot to get stuck into there.

First off credit to Howie, this is the deep sitting counter Conte dreams he had.

Although we'd be two up if timo had a flake of finishing ability. But because he doesn't we lost our massive early advantage to pull Newcastle out of there shape.

Our back line all over the place and everyone a disaster. Porro with the stupid back pass for the second, what a stupid ass ball
Romero constantly at sea, stay in your lane!
Vdv falling over and playing like a drunk with arthritis.
And udogie, physically weak as baby shit on that skeleton Anthony Gordon for the first goal.

And of course there doesn't seem to be a DM out there to help out when Newcastle counter
 
Horrible performance so far and nothing positive.

Biss is a safety sam 10 yard passer. Hojbjerg is a better option than him no matter what anyone says.

Front three weak as piss. First goal comes from losing the ball in their box and Udogie weak as fuck defending. We can’t do anything about the slip. Porro for the second kills us.

Until we upgrade on the front three it will always be inconsistent. Werner has to score with his chance and it changes the game. Sonny no threat and Johnson anonymous. The bonkers thing is because they are so hit and miss they could come out second half and produce but so far they have offered nothing and been bullied. No threat in behind it into feet because they are being aggressive and they can’t handle it.

Get biss off for Hojbjerg and give the front 3 10 mins to get going then change it.
 
They are not out of sight, that is the only positive.
Spurs don't create much and now have to come out more...it's doing that which has given Newcastle a ridiculously high amount of chances. If we were having the same amount of chances I'd understand but they have absolutely no quality in our attacking play. All too slow. We have no natural striker. Werner quite frankly can only do simple square passes against shit opposition. He is crap
