Match Tottenham vs Tamworth | FA Cup 3rd Round

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I personally think possession based football is overrated and not entertaining whatsoever, AVB loved possession and I was bored to fucking death watching it.

Watching us play against Liverpool the other night was far more satisfying than what I am seeing here in terms of style of play, a more pragmatic and counter attacking style doesn’t have to be boring.
 
Embarrassing, no other words for it.

We're really going to have to bring on Kulu, Solanke and Son to win this. :ange-facepalm:
Shows the lack of strength in depth we have in attack.

I'll cut Moore some slack because he's a kid but he doesn't look physically ready for the men's game.
Werner and Johnson, just a hopeless pairing. Neither should be playing for Spurs.

God knows what Ange was thinking with this starting front 3.

Only Madders and Biss look a level above out there. Sarr is anonymous.

He was probably thinking if I play Solanke, Son and Kulusevski on an artificial pitch and get injuries then I will be forced to use Johnson and Werner more.
 
My word. Managed to catch the last 10 minutes of 1st half. Tamworth are atrocious. Sometimes the opponents are just finding ways to disrupt the game, making us difficult to play properly.
I know, all teams should just roll over and let us tickle their bellies. How dare they play with intensity and drive, or use this insane thing called 'tactics'.

We are still well in this.
Our fitness should benefit us as the game gets to the later stages.


Unless they make subs.. then I'm not so sure, will just have to dig in.

It's who we are.
We got our Tottenham back.
 
We have been very poor against poor opposition on a terrible pitch, no tempo or no threat part from Madders, Werner is a truly dreadful footballer and the two wide players have been anonymous

We don't have a choice about playing possession football in this one. Tamworth aren't going to dominate the ball and throw men forward
