Attack?It was an unprovoked attack, particularly on a poster who I’ve not seen engage in hostility on this board.
Plus it’s their prerogative how they enjoy the game.
My initial point - the post that you disagreed with- was that him and Emerson don't show anything going forward. In Conte's system, this is essential, you only have to look at his previous teams. I don't see anything in Sessegnon's game that makes me think he will be up to much as an attacking player down the left hand side. His defensive performance was good and credit to him for that.
But give Conte serious footballers in those wing-back positions and our attack would be transformed.
And with such players, we would have battered Liverpool today in my opinion.
What a stupid comment. Redknapp is such an oxygen thief.
State of his teeth: his breath must be rank as well.
LOUDERAfter today, if we do not support Conte in the transfer window, then we are officially a pointless club.
He has a plan. He will deliver. Just back him.
RichWhy you being a cunt for no reason?

Sorry if I offended anyone earlier. However what I am saying is that everyone seems to going over board about a point at home against a team who had 35 yr old milliner and a young kid in CM plus a makeshift CD. Yet we contrived to give them chance after chance plus a defo pen and possibly a red card for Kane. At no stage did I see us in control of that gane. We certainly weren’t aggressive in stopping crosses coming into our box. They could have been 1-0 up inside 2 minutes. If your gonna defend then defend properly by stopping the oppo from creating chances. Yes we should gane won based on clear chances but let’s not kid our selves that we actually had a game plan to keep them out and hit them on the counter. The amount of times dele just failed to track a runner or close down was numerous. I don’t see any pressing or high tempo game and certainly our build up play duo the back mostly is useless. Long ball out to FBs. This was a classic Maureen performance.
Perhaps we were watching different games..... He got up and down the wing all game, pressed well when in their half and even came close to scoring on one occasion.
You mean serious players like Moses & A.Young. : P
Sess & Reggie are both raw and extremely coach-able.
We did batter them (not denying they didn't threaten us plenty too tho')... If it wasn't for some poor finishing we'd have rinsed them. That's not the fault of either WB.
Not even slightly shocked.MotD.
No handball Salah. No Penalty on Alli. Penalty against Emerson. Kane should have been sent off.
Shocked I am. Shocked.
Umm, because I believe that people should be able to work shit out for themselves, and not rely on idiotic stats made up to feed TV displays and fools who follow this tosh?What a nastly little man you are

I haveI have to agree with the general feeling here.
Think this comment is poor even if put to someone extolling the virtues of xg but to aim it at CarrieFi who was only answering someone else's question is incredibly out of order.
You shouldn't debate it. You should either leave it and move on or, be a decent guy, and apologise before moving on.
Cheers, will add them both to my list to ParaticiMazroui is class technically. Don't watch him enough to have a strong read on him. Lamptey.. well, I'd worry about his hamstrings, but love the player.

I do agree with your realism, as I also thought our defence were like statues at times, and lacked a bit of conviction with some clearances, but there were also some great tackles.Sorry if I offended anyone earlier.

Robertson's tackle looks bad in real time and at any other speed. He missed the ball and kicked 2 standing legs out from under Royale.Hilarious that most seem to be saying that Robinson's 'tackle' was no worse than Harry's. Nonsense. One was an attempt to get the ball, the other was violent conduct.
I think it's interesting to highlight this point (not ignoring the rest of your post on purpose, I just think this bit is interesting). If you compare Moses as an attacking player to Emerson, it's a big difference even without Conte doing his "Wing-back Whisperer" God-Tier coaching. Moses was always a winger, the attacking side of the game comes far more naturally to him than Emerson, who really doesn't look comfortable at that side of the game. A.Young was a very good winger in his early career and a very decent full-back in the latter part of it. Sessegnon confuses me as we signed him from Fulham as a winger but he has yet to show (in my opinion) any good wing-play, both at Fulham when they were in the Premier League and at us in his limited appearances.
I think a realistic hope for us is that the strongest survives out of Sess and Reg, and they become backup to a new signing. Proper footballers in those wide areas will make us so much better, I can't wait for us to start signing players and get Conte a pre-season to work with them. I have never had so much optimism about the next season as I do now with Conte in charge.
