Match Tottenham v Manchester United - Carabao Cup - Thursday 19th at 8PM

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Sky are absolutely doing my head in, so desperate to push the narrative of the manager being naive

WE FUCKING WON THE MATCH FFS

Carragher can do one because when did Klopp's team ever control matches? Fuck off man lol
 
We've got no answers when things are going against us and we're under pressure. Same issues time after time. Great when it's going good but when teams put it on us we are shit mentally and tactically. Lucky it was a second string/poor united tonight.
That's on Ange. His Game Management is Terrible. He'll never win The EPL with these tactics/or lack of tactics.

It's hilarious how much old British people hate playing out from the back.

Dunno if the game had the same commentary in the UK, but they were so exasperated by not just booting every ball long with no understanding at all of why playing short is tactically valuable.
 
Do you need to be a leader to just know when to put your head on it and not let it bounce?

I think we just need better footballers.
Dragu showed his age and inexperience, as in he didn't react rationally cause they been all over the place for 30 mins. Course the lad knows he gotta head that, he's a pro defender. Lost his head in more ways than one, is all.

Need leaders to grab them younguns and tell them to keep cool, stay focused & composed, get the basics right. We have nobody doing that, incl our manager...though he was a bit more lively on the touchline tonight.
 
Carragher and Redknapp nailing it. They are actually coming across as honestly wanting to see us win and that makes a refreshing change for sky. You can see as ex players they know how close we could be just with a few tweaks.

They even acknowledged it must be aging us watching them.

Edit: I think some are being a little precious over their comments. They didn’t bang on about Man U and did give us some credit. I think we just frustrate them.

Everyone plays out from the back and we've been fine doing it. It was just an inexplicable fuck up followed by an unnecessary pass back (which absolutely isn't Angeball, he's notorious for wanting forward passes) followed by another massive gaff by the same individual.

We deserved that win, at 3-0 we were in total control and then the clown show started. I get some people are Ange out but a bit of perspective is required.

Great interview on Sky post match to be fair.
