That was on the sideline around the halfway line.

We do play high risk, high reward and it does cost us at times but that was just Porro being a nutter.

Point still stands, he still vacated his position which ended up dragging the CB's over to cover him which led to a load of space on the other side and pulled everyone out of shape.

I think Ange ball is and can be very good especially when you have the players to pull it off but it needs minor tweaks for it to succeed and that is something that definitely needs tweaking.
 
That was not good for my heart. I found myself caring much more about this than Sunday. The cups are all that can salvage our season. Really hope this gives the youngsters some confidence and belief.

Seemed to be loads of Spurs fans around the stadium. Presume they’re German Spurs fans who could easily buy tickets as a village of 3,000 inhabitants ain’t gonna fill up any stadium.

Now to relax and enjoy Yanited and the huns take lumps out of each other.

Up The Spurs!
 
The game may well be a blueprint for Sunday.. Leicester will come and be open under Van Nistelrooy, and as any team does, they'll get at us. But there should enough joy in from our point of view as well..

What Leicester have that Hoffenheim don't is a Vardy that plans his whole year around two fixtures.
 
3 pts. Thank fick for that.

Okay performance overall. Austin, Gentle Ben, Lucas & Madders were good...shame Austin got caught in between two minds on their 2nd, and that Mads faded a bit too (as usual, such meh stamina).

Drag, Roddy and Kulu were poor.

Bring on Leicester.
 
You can see us coming up against a tactically smart team in this comp who we'll struggle to break down and will do us on shithousery and game management and kick us out the comp, we're not smart cunts at all.

It's not the CBs that cover him when he inverts, it's the 6 or 8 on that side.
