Strolled through that second half, saving energy for bigger tests to come. I thought it was professional & whilst I’d loved to have seen us smash another 3 past them, I wouldn’t have wanted it at the risk of anyone getting injured or burning out. It was what we sometimes question Poch for- in game management.

I still have my wits though sausage knocker
Not a claim you can make
Judging by the half arsed shite you post
Indeed. I was getting frustrated like an angry toddler at one point. Then I remembered the bigger picture, how spoilt we are by this current team, and what I’d have given in the 90s for away performances like we’re seeing now.
I watched it on telly. I don’t think the frustrations bubble up the same way when you aren’t “there”.
I simply thought how easy we made it look.
Had I been a Cardiff fan however, I’d probably have felt very fucking angry at their absolute lack of any ability to hurt us coming off the back of that shitshow against wolves.

He was involved in all three goals, Llorente hasn't even been involved in three games this season.

He's just using our stadium situation to cover up from his own ineptitude as a manager, the fact he's managed 15 separate clubs (almost all lower league) in a 39 year managerial career says it all about him, he's just another one of the Pardew/Allardyce/Hughes mold of merry-go-round bosses who bounce around club after club achieving little.
We barely came out of neutral today and still rolled over his pathetic side.
cretinousgoat where abouts were you sat? We were very quiet today, especially in the second half. Atmosphere in the concourse pre match was promising but that was where it peaked.
Block 411 Row A Seat 20 in the Ninian Stand mate. Yeah, didn't hear much from our lot in the second half...! Some decent chants in the first but nothing loud or continuous
You're not supposed to get it.
For some reason the outside perception is that we have gained an advantage when we haven't. The theory is if we move again we will be upset again and could lose more points against sides around Cardiff in the table who didn't have to play at Wembley, despite us clearly losing to promoted side Wolves the game before on a boggy pitch with shit atmosphere.
Needless to say the inside perception is the complete opposite, or at the very least indifferent, and any rational person sees this. They are weirdly clutching at straws where there aren't any as most bottom teams do. Not a good sign.
As for Warnock in general, he said we weren't a title challenging side before the game, then that we should be forced to play at Wembley after getting dicked 0-3 at home.
Basically the press ask him for opinions on others because they know he is the only manager stupid enough to think it is the right thing to give an obscure degrading opinion about better teams.
All of this coming after he said Poch should go to United and that there is no loyalty in football.
All in all a lovely gentleman who definitely knows more than Poch, who has stayed in the top 3 for three years.
I get if he is asked a question he has a right to answer. But most are media trained not to just spout random bullshit and break rank. Basically Holloway but without the humour, or Harry without the charm.
And also the best manager in the history of the Championship

these things happen in football
So many blaming it on fatigue and pointing there finger at certain players, it was just not your day.
At least you got a response 3 goals and a clean sheet
FairPlay cretin
Because he’s not suffering from fatigue and wants the Golden Boot and Poch is not a moron that would risk destroying his health.
Window shop dressing
Well that’s the crux for me......words matter
If someone has a stiff neck, I don’t say he broke his neck.
Personally I think the our pace was fine and understandable but we didn’t risk anything further by putting the ball in the net when through on goal on 3 or 4 occasions in the second half.
Son, Dele, Kane and Sissoko all missed very straightforward chances that could have seen us win 6 or 7-0, and given the travelling fans their New Years party.
Not complaining but missing sitters isn’t risk assemement
Fair enough. Fatigue can take many forms though. It’s not just physical. It can be lacking mental sharpness. Harry has got two little kids. Maybe he’s had a few rough nights? Maybe he’s been worried about something that’s playing on his mind? Same goes for others who have off days, Poch included. We just don’t know. The one thing I firmly believe is that class is permanent & we have plenty of that. I can live with the odd blip like wolves because this team is capable of murdering teams like Madrid. Swings n roundabouts. But the best Spurs team I’ve ever had the privilege of watching in my lifetime.
