Player Pedro Porro

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Agreed. Porro is a bigger bell than the boo-ers if anything tbh.

They've just had their sacks hauled off by Fulham at home ffs. Did they expect a few nights at a 5* training ground with climate controlled rooms, michelin star quality food and free massages and entertainment (that's actually what they will get for that horse shit they served up)

Was it Conte or Mourinho who commented that the training ground might be too nice? It's a pussy sanctuary or refuge if you will, as far I can tell.
Conte. Said they are used to it and have it easy.
 
I assume because a lot of his passes count as crosses and kicking it down the line, he's Frank's go to to get the ball up the pitch which tells you a lot.
He goes long far too often, and he need to overlap kudus and pop crosses in from the byline. Crosses from deep are much easier to defend.

He’s been frustrating me for a while now TBH…..
 
Yeah. He is a great striker of the ball. And he usually does play with passion and intensity. But any oppo that knows what they are doing and has a decent LW can dominate this guy.
he's been a defensive liability, virtually since he joined us.. that our managers have put up with it and played him and not got rid Is symptomatic of why were on the verge of a relegation battle... Would that little weirdo at the arse wipes put up with his defensive frailties? 100 % NOT. Would pep?.. he got rid .. says it all really...offload the gobby little not very good fat boy...
 
Atm the home fan are the away team's 12th man and worth at least a goal to them.....and Pedro isn't good enough to point the finger.....👈
Sorry but that's a horrible comment about our own fans, who have and are paying good money to watch some awful football for all too long. The booing and frustration is easily understood, players turning on their own fans like Porro seemingly has is just incredulous, hard to see a way out for Porro from here.

Its a good job he doesn't consider us real fans because I dont consider the little wanker a real footballer.

Unless he steps his performances up a level, which I doubt, he can be dropped for Spence or a new RB can be bought.
 
Look at the two goals. It's always instructive to go back to just before the goal because there's usually a breakdown. On the first goal Chukwueze of Fulham initiates the sequence that lead to the goal by faking Porro off balance and losing him which sets up the pass to Tete. Vicarrio's play is an obvious error, but how did we get there? Spurs are in a high line and Fulham gets the ball over the top with two men getting behind the defense. Porro is left trailing the play and then if you look at the end of the play Viccario is trying to get back in the goal while Porro moves out away from the goal to cover a potential pass to another Fulham player. It's just a good thing van de vyn made that spectacular recovery because Chukwueze had blown by Porro on that play as well. Vaccario made the apologies, but Porro made the lion's share of the mistakes.
 
vs Fulham;

''in his 94 minutes on the pitch, he lost 100% of his aerial duels, lost five of eight ground duels, was dribbled past three times, was accurate in just three of 16 crosses, failed in 100% of his dribbles and completed only 62% of his long balls.''

Sorry but I'm one of them, game in game out win, lose or draw.

What's horrible about it? I haven't said fans cannot boo or that it isn't justified I'm simply giving an opinion of how booing your own team helps the opposition rather than ourselves.
 
Just seen his comments on Socials.

He should be fucked off out of it. Sell in January.

About time these players got a reality check from the fanbase, the league form last season and chucking a third of the season was disgusting from professionals. The cowardly capitulation at the NLD. Individual mistakes undoing all of the good work against PSG and then more individual mistakes at the weekend.

These players have had it easy for far too long.

The booing was entirely justified after what we've been served up and the lack of professionalism shown by the players and others at the club.

He is fucking shit and has been for months but up till very recently supposedly sensible people were saying sell Spence and keep this clown. Right now none are playing well by the way but Porro is by a mile the biggest liability and the disconnect from his performances and actually efficacy is mad. I think Reguilon who at least understands one touch is a better fullback .

I think playing Porro (instead of Spence) after his Fulham performance is Frank being particularly kind to him.
