Tottenham v Everton - Sunday September 13, 4:30pm

[prinmemo]

Pretty sure I heard Jose shouting ‘make a fucking effort, eh?’

Don’t know wtf the team were doing.

I didn’t see any sense of urgency from a lot of the players.

James > dele
doucoure > hojberg
allan > winks

cheap shit giving the gifts

If we sold Dele when we should have, we'd have been able to afford all those and still have change.

 

[LEGO Boy]

Disgraceful 2nd half display. Zero fightback, zero guts, zero clue.

Defensively well poor, especially on our right flank. Early days, but Doherty wasn't good defensively, and Holberg looked a right plodder.

Very discouraging for the rest of the season

 

[todd1882]

CLEARLY, not a fucking Diamond.

Ok, you got me. It clearly wasn't.

 

[Doom Funk]

Not until Levy's erection for Mourinho dies down.

The manager is always the problem

Yet things never change regardless of manager

 

[BernardMatthews]

Relegation form.

 

[Bill Madrid]

Mourinho will be gone in 10 games. They aren't even running for him. If you can't even motivate the players to run for you its over.
We are done as a team, We have no creativity, hopeful long diagonals and individual brilliance is all we are relying on.
It's a full rebuild guys.
As for Ndombele should be have been sold in the summer as I said, he came on for 15 mins and didn't break out a jog once but now we have a 60m lump sitting on the bench who can't be trusted to put in 20 mins honest work.
He wasn't the reason we lost, but we really need that 60m investment elsewhere, we can't do without it.

Haha, did Nbombole really come on? I must have missed that, obviously didn't realise from his non-contribution

 

[sammyspurs]

At half time i thought we looked ok and had a plan. From half time onwards we didn't even have a formation let alone a plan

Winks and Dele were actually getting things moving.
Shocking subs

No hiding place on this. Lack of quality shining through and players realising mid match how utterly shit they are. In this day and age you cannot finish 6th and buy a Southampton and Wolves player and think you are going to close the gap, that screams of austerity.

 

[thinktank]

Doucoure's an absolute unit.

 

[mikes01666]

Normal service resumed.

Our game plan consists of getting the ball to Lloris, Dier and Alderweireld who then wonder what to do with it.

Hojbjerg outstandingly ordinary.

Doherty had a good first half and then disappeared. At this moment he's texting Nuno saying there's been a mistake.

Everyone else gets 1/10 for getting their boots laced up on the correct foot.

Our game summed up by Son's free-kick at the end of the first half. Roll it infield and let someone else have a go - whereupon the ref blows time.

Where do we go from here?

 

[Bazali]

Remember the many posts in the Jose thread, "Who would turn down playing for Jose"?

Many have already, the better question is, "Who would want to play for him with these fucking tactics"?

Well they’re not playing for him now quite clearly

 

[kingdawson]

Putting N’Dombelly on yes for starters but I’m at a loss
So many things wrong
But firstly get rid of that fat waste of space as a priority

We played like shite second half before he came on.

Mourinho decided to put Sissoko on as a right midfielder. His thinking behind it was probably that Richarlson was getting space due to Doherty playing so upfield but he shouldn't be thinking defensively against Everton at home ffs.

Sissoko ending up as a right back proves it was a massive error.

 

[ILSpur]

So anyone still think taking Winks off was the answer?

It doesn't mean he was good. Just means there aren't any immediate better options.

 

[Nabil Bentaleb]

If we sold Dele when we should have, we'd have been able to afford all those and still have change.

Nobody want to pay serious money for dele. He’s gash at the moment

 

[Nuts]

Message to Levy and the rest: you want to charge top prices, then you're gonna have to serve up better quality football than that dross. That was a bottom of the table performance on show in an architectural marvel. There's a proper big disconnect going on.

 

[peter merison]

So, who we gonna blame...is it still Dier or have we moved on to Holberg yet?
Keep me informed....

 

[Boltonspur]

Limp. Absolutely nothing I watched gave me any joy today. Kane needed to be pulled because he was fucking rubbish. But we have no CF to challenge him. No creativity. I watched James and was actually jealous that they have a player and a playmaker with immediate quality to their product. We bring on a half fit lump of lard in Ndombele, too late to change anything. Comfortably beaten at home by the mini scousers in every department. It’s going to be a long season. We really need that idiot Hitchen to start earning his coin and for Levy to take some chances with money. We are fucked if we don’t. Mid table at best with what I saw today, & worryingly the worst case scenario is that we give more ground to teams like everton. Would go home and kick the dog if I didn’t know she’d fucking savage me

This is not funny.

 

[tommyboyspurs]

to think we got hojberg over decoure it's hilarious
