Dr. Tottenham to save Ten Hag’s job today.

Without Sonny we haven’t got any composure and technical brilliance in the front 3. Johnno can make good first time finishes but isn’t going to actively attract attention the way Son will.

They’re dangerous on the counter.

Not feeling good about this.
 
So, no Son. Well. This is what you get for playing your first XI against fucking Carrier Bag.

As if this outcome wasn't completely fucking obvious.

But hey, at least we're at the top end of a Euro league table that doesn't matter.
Rotate a little? Whinge
Rotate too much? Whinge
Rotate half the team? Whinge

Win the game? Whinge we're taking a competition which doesn't matter (to you) too seriously
Lose the game? Whinge that we've been beaten by "farmers"

Fucking tiresome.
 
hahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahha he's playing a single pivot with Bentancur when United have packed their midfield with Fernandes, Mainoo and Ugarte. He's not even starting Bissouma.


He never learns and it's ridiculously depressing now. He continuously handicaps us with his ridiculous tactics that literally no other manager in world football would adopt.
 
Agree. Was just about to post the same. Think that three would have offered more in the way of control and seeing a forward pass at the right time.
Yes I already posted that we would defo have controlled midfield. Biss actually looked good and sharp mid week. I’m sure kulu could have done a shift on the left. Although I suggested playing a 4222 system with Johnson up top with solanke.
 
It was intentional, albeit a bit Carry On film

Was tempted to say we only got oranges when I played

I think this quote from Ange is key:
I"t's Timo's position, it's where he's most comfortable and why we brought him to the club, for situations like this, and he gets his opportunity today."

He's here as bad k up... He knows that, and has obviously accepted that.
Plus it's his favoured position, so there are no excuses.

I think he's gonna surprise (and probably upset) a few people on here today!!

That utter, utter bastard!

They need to check his credentials…
