Match Tottenham Hotspur v Ajax, Champions League Semi-Final, Tue 30th April

[Gobbygonk]

No striker on the bench - bad 5 defenders system played cost Spurs in 1st half. Looking better now.

Sissoko changed the game, should of started, absolute madness going 3 at the back when they play virtually no strikers, and having a light midfield when we know that's where their strength is.

 

[Super Jan Fan]

Shocking first half. Limited options. End 1-1 and it's a good result now. They are weak from free kicks, crosses etc.

 

[ArcspacE]

Liverpool haven’t had an injury all season - same fucken 11 every week

We’ve been utterly ruined this session

Fuck this

 

[Princess Bleach]

I think the fact that, at this point, ajax are clear favorites will help us.

We've dug ourselves out of some huge holes in europe this season. I have hope.

 

[Notabadsquad]

Not really sure I can see any more changes from us in this game barring injuries.

Unless we go BACK to 3 at the back and bring one of Davies or Foyth on to push our wing backs further forward.

And no one wants that.

Pochettino fcuked up by playing 3-5-2. Simple. Not hindsight just the wrong move.

 

[imitationleather]

Wasn't following the thread but I imagine the melt is strong in this thread.

Ridiculous half. Why the fuck did we start like that?

 

[Teresa]

1-1 will be decent. ajax themselves beaten juve away after home 1-1 game.

 

[El flaco]

bit 1980s but I suspect Ajax don't like it up them.

 

[Fattynomates]

We will win this 3-1 chill people

 

[Essexyido94]

Fuck me poch got the tactics sooooo wrong at the start of the game. Really didn’t wan Jan to go off but sissoko will give us a lift and a bite to our midfield. Just need to get Lucas through on goal.

 

[BelfastYids]

We’ve came into it more since Jan has went off. Sanchez is looking very nervous. Thinks it too big of an occasion for him. We’ve realised we can play some good football and put them on the back foot. Let’s hope it continues. Half time came at a bad time for us.

 

[Clynelish]

At least 140 minutes left to play in the semi finals, would be ridiculous to think it's over.

 

[Ginolaflair]

I've defended Eriksson a lot this season. But he needs a big performance on the big stage. Someone of his calibre should help carry the team when we need it most. I'm not seeing it. sofar...

Oh do fark off

 

[Radical Rei]

Man what were our medical team thinking?

 

[r-u-s-x]

We wasted 30 odd minutes with the bullshit back five until Poch was forced to change the formation with Jan's injury.

He had already changed formation.

 

[Neumanator]

At least he is posing a threat.

Fcuking Alli and Eriksen meed to show their so called quality.

I didn't realise Dele was on the pitch tbh.

It is painfully true.

Watch tomorrow and more injury free sh!t.

 

[FightingIllini]

Sorry I’ll just lie and pretend that he doesn’t when his body language was terrible

It's been this way for weeks as he's been forced to MacGuyver these lineups together.

Does he look confident? Not exactly. Beaten? Poch? Never.
