Match Tottenham vs Swansea City

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I don't really know what to say about that. We haven't been bad collectively but we haven't done much either. Getting more sloppy as the game goes on, trying to force it. Some good movement outside the box but nothing in it. Townsend gives it away far too much and probably should have done better with a clear sight of goal at 1-0.

More to come from us I feel (hope) and we're hardly looking poor at the back, two shots against us from a speculative free kick and a poor lapse from Vertonghen.
 
Swansea are a good team, they're only one place behind us in the league.

We've had most of the possession, put some good balls in the box and have had shots on goal.

It's like some people think we should be hammering any team we consider "beneath us" after twenty mins or they throw a fucking strop.
Mate this is Swansea now without Gomis & Bony. They should be a win at home and we are dominating them at their own game. It's our own incompetence that we haven't scored at least 2 not them being that close to us in class
 
Are you sure? Townsend loses the ball just as much, if not more, than Lamela. He's always doing it. At least Lamela has some end product and can see a pass. AT, for all his effort, does fuck all. His crosses are aimless, he doesn't look up or se a pas. He has Zero end product. Pamela has also more defensive qualities.
His assist for Eriksen was meant for Kane his only goals have been a fluke and penalties.
I love him, but he is showing no signs improving offensively and I think we should let him go if he has one more season of the same.

EDIT: how many times has AT lost the ball tonight around the box and we have nearly been caught on the break?

Ye, that's the thing about Towns. Not only does he lose the ball way too often, but when he does he often just hands the opponents a fantastic counter attacking opportunity. And he takes Walkers spot in right side attack, leaving us too wide and with too few people inside.

Why Poch insists on starting Townsend I will never know. Our results with him in the side has been bad, and he is usually the worst performer out there. It's just like with Adebayor in the beginning of the season. No matter how badly he plays and how badly we play when he's there, he's kept in the side.

DEMBELE-ERIKSEN-CHADLI, why's that so hard to get?
 
Anyone else watching on megatvhd?
The half time analysis in Thai/Malaysian/Korean?? Still makes more sense than half the idiots on sky or match of the day.

Anyway whatever language it is, it's funny how it sounds like they are allowed to say a few words before abruptly stopping the sentence and starting another one.
