I’m not being cuntish
I’m expressing an opinion
It’s a Forum ffs
Ben is ok
Nothing more
Rewatch the game if you don’t believe me
Me too as I’ve nothing against Ben but simply think he’s not good enough
Never a penalty on Lallana tonight
Couldn’t believe it
Madley deffo a red
Div 1 yeah?
I think someone is being a Royster Doyster.
Ok Championship then
But we’ve had two decent challenges for the title
Poch should be knighted for that alone given his resources
So you think Davies should play in front of a fully fit Rose?
Really???
I thought my criticism was a fair call
I take no glee in criticising any of our players
I am not fickle
I have no agendas other than supporting Spurs
I do not scapegoat as I call what I see fairly and objectively
I am not name calling merely expressing an opinion
Calm down ffs as you’re usually a good poster
Still shaking my head in disbelief that we did not win this game, so frustrating to watch. But if we don't score early, then these teams that park the double deckers are always likely to have one lucky shot.
I thought Serge had a good game, Sonny too. I don't like slagging off individual players, as none of them are brilliant all the time, but Sissoko was pretty poor, IMO. Harry obviously hasn't fully recovered from the 'flu, and think we would have been better served, if we had used him as a sub, as we had done at Swansea.
Such a shame that we didn't take the chance of getting a bit closer to the teams above us, the Spammers will probably bring out a DVD saying they stopped us getting 4th place!
Wembley looked sparse, attendance of 50,000 pretty poor for a London derby - you can't tell me that the late schedule change and playing a league game on a Thursday night didn't affect the number.
Ah well, onwards and upwards!

It may work?
Belt and braces.
Retrospective diving ban?
Agree. Except then the question is why the lack of resources ? 3rd then 2nd means he got the team to the cusp of a title. The next logical step is 1st. Did the business done in the summer show real intent to make that final step ?
In no way am I criticising Poch. I am Levy though.
If I've got this right I think they only look at dives that led to a pen and/or a goal.
Agree with most of that Mrs P but I thought Sissoko was ok
Our worst player was Davies but then he didn’t have a lot to do as a defender because the Pikeys barely tried to attack so I’m just judging on his ability to go past players and crossing, hence my rating
Davies our worst player? Are you mad? He is probably our most consistent full back now that Walker is gone - Rose still has to prove himself back from his long time out, Aurier has shown very good moments but also very bad moments, Trippier is not good enough defensively but can put in a good offensive performance when given the space to play.
Davies on the other hand is always one of our best defensive players, very rarely gets beaten for pace which is a miracle for a bloke who isn't exactly lightning. Puts in last ditch tackles and covers CBs excellently. Going forward he is aware of his limitations and doesn't push himself to try and take people on down the outside so plays to his strengths and does inside overlaps where he influences the game and lets Son take an outside position to get one on ones. His crossing against WHam wasn't one of his best nights but he is actually very technically sound and can hit a good delivery - not to mention he gets into the box more and has more shots on goal than any of our other full backs.

He rarely gets any help covering his side of the pitch either. He has to work up and down the whole sideline.
