Match Liverpool vs Tottenham - Sunday May 5th - 16:30 KO

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We cant win Sunday, the refs wont allow it. They have to and will make up for the greatest injustice seen in the British isles for the last couple hundred years.

I'll take a kinda perverse enjoyment to seeing how far they take it

It's both, we have soft players but great managers can toughen players up. Why can players like Maddison and Bissouma not play with the same intensity as before? How come these exact same players could play with courage when down to 9 men against Chelsea in November but now they looked scared to pass the ball forward?

Yes there's a different type of pressure at the business end of the season but playing the way we did with 9 men was basically suicide and yet we nearly beat them doing it! The boys showed they had balls. Where did they go?

You can’t toughen a player up. It’s in you or it’s not. What they can do is give them the freedom to play without being scared to make mistakes and the ones with the good mentality will improve and make less mistakes the more they play a certain way.
What we have is players not handling the demands of playing a riskier type of game because of two reasons and they are that firstly they are mentally weak and secondly not good enough to do it and do it well on a consistent basis.
You can get a player from the championship or league one or any pro and ask them to play that way but they would struggle because of the reasons I mentioned.

If a large number of our players look mentally weak, despite not being mentally weak at previous clubs, or earlier in the season, that says something. And it's not really that they are mentally weak. It speaks to a lack of confidence, coherance and coaching as to what they should be doing and why.
 
Ange said he doesn’t care about 4th. I doubt he cares about 5th either. The players look like they don’t give an fuck about anything.

4-0 Liverpool.
 
Another graveyard for us on Sunday, can’t wait!!!

I’ve been thinking it for quite a few weeks but would 352 suit us more? We can’t defend despite good defensive players, and our wide players aren’t good enough so maybe change things? Son surely would be more effective centrally with another player alongside him. That said I expect 433 and a 2-0 loss 👍
 
If by some freak of nature we do manage to win, their collective scouse whine is going to sound like a nuclear holocaust warning siren.
