Oh FFS Ange. WTF is them subs???

Are we actually doing the 4-2-4 formation again with Tel and Brennan now as wide wingers? This is beyond retarted. Game was crying out for Bergval or Maddison. Richarlison should have come off.

Bizzare subs. Embarrassing.
 
It’s boring football in the premier league is robotic , okay our shit show isn’t helping our cause but in general who can say they are excited watching it every weekend? Champions league is the same, same teams , same players and it’s only going to get worse they’re milking the product dry……pre season is going to last about 3 weeks shortly club’s commitments for overseas friendlies , international games kick in , qualifying for Europe if your in lower positions they are killing it
I don't blame managers for playing slower, more disciplined football just to save their players from the ever increasing schedule.

But yeah, the product is going to suffer from it.
 
It's awful.

It's a strange combination of being both completely over coached (everything down the wing) and under coached (fuck knows what we do once it's gone down the wing).

Awful, awful football.
Overcoached, yet undercoached is probably the best, concise description of this team I've read.

All the guile, devil and inspiration completely taken out of them. With no plan, pattern or idea put there to take the place.
 
Yeah


I think we need a recount as we barely ever look like we're going to score no matter how long the game is.


I think a couple of high scoring wins ahs really padded out the stats on actually how much of a goal threat we really are
This 100%. When we win we win big. But we only normally lose by 1 goal which accts for the positive goal difference. But overall we are a mess

Yep, it's an extremely rigid ideology but with an extremely undercooked and underdeveloped structure.

A combination of arrogance and expectation that his previous work will work again, with no answers for the fact that this team plays at a level and in competitions which are just too advanced for this bullshittery.
 
Nobody can defend them subs. Ridiculous. We've lost all formation now. We did this away at palace earlier in the season too. So stupid. Chase the game through the midfield, not by throwing on forwards and losing all your shape. Pathetic
 
Leaving the alleged transfer fee to one side.

Who else is going to be better, that we could afford, that would come to a team likely to finish seventeenth in their league with a new manager going in to a new season.

I think that list is bigger than we think. I'm not going to pretend that my knowledge of other players and other wonderkids is anywhere near as big as others, but I have to imagine the prospect of joining Spurs isn't as toxic to a professional as our feeling towards the club is at the moment.
