Just can't understand the reasoning behind playing Vertonghen in the Europa.

At this stage I'd love to see Verts & Dier play together, but that would mean dropping our captain.

agreed, dier is clearly not a right back. got the mobility & size of a CB. in fact he is a lot of potential to be a top CB. he gets caught out by pacey wingers at RB.
vertoghen even out of form is much better than any other CB we have.
also, poch just changes the CB combo pretty much match to match.
u want a settled CB combo. they don't get a chance to form a solid partnership.
Id either go kaboul & vert or dier & vert. maybe let them compete against each other for that spot.

poch thinks Fazio is good & kaboul makes a good captain!
he must not like vert because he has dropped him in favour of awful defenders like vlad & Fazio!
 
Unbelievable cack. Stoke? At home? It is like this every season now. Losing games that we really ought to be winning on our own patch. Fucking horribly frustrating & shocking performances to boot. It's time for a big shake up. I'm not suggesting Poch out etc (look how Pardew has turned things round recently) but this is woeful stuff. Mid table mediocrity has its place but having dined at the top table & been near to it a few times, it's hard to get used to leftovers again. COYS. Let's turn this shit round & sharpish.

Next match is a huge six pointer for us. Hull are also in a relegation battle so we have to get 3 points there. Lets start praying now boys.
:avbpray:
 
Its not even the fact its Stoke who have beaten us. Its the fact it was yet again just so boring, and completely against the spurs ethos of fast, attaching flair. Dire to watch

But why target Kane and Mason? They have been the two brightest sparks. The foreign contingent should be getting the heat.

Exactly. Obviously we've lost our better players but Mason and Kane are the only ones out there who look like they haven't anything in them. Dembele, Lamela, Adebayor were brutal when they came Capoue has lost the plot. So unfair to pick those two as problems, they are all we've got going for us at the moment besides Lloris.
