We can be heroes (again) Ajax versus Tottenham Hotspur CL Semi Final Wed 8th May

[Hotspurpaul]

Imagine if Dembele was in there instead of Wanyama...

Wouldn't make much difference mate......he was shot anyway.....

 

[FightingIllini]

This diamond tactics is cancerous

It exposes a weak point for us certainly.

 

[Hairy Cane]

Everyone in the front four has forgotten how to receive a pass under pressure. Our first touch as been abysmal all game.

Yep, been that way for a while

 

[mummy]

Be brave Poch. Skipp and Foyth for Wanyama and Trippier. Don't go out with bums on the pitch.

I'd give WP the nod in preference to Foyth, but definitely Oli Skipp for Wanyama.

Half time replays show how cynical they were for the 1st goal - blocked everyone off so the big man could head it.

 

[B-0-Sspurs]

We had chances and shot like toddlers.

Tragic to see Wanyama, was such a good player before the injuries. Too many others just coasting through the game.

Pretty obvious this squad needs to let a few go and invest in young, hungry players who wish to improve

 

[superstaryid]

Man City can't believe we knocked them out

 

[nudger]

Who have we got we bring on and change it? What formation could turn this around? Maybe a good old fashion hair dryer will do the trick.

 

[Kristeva]

we can only hope Poch is giving them rocket in the dressing room.

 

[AlabamaSpur]

What are the odds that we score a goal in the last 2 games?

 

[ArtyB]

Sorry, but since New Year we have been found out. Simply press our defence and force our attack out to the wings. Easy to play against Spurs. This is on Poch who has been unable, for half a season, to figure out a 'plan b'

It's not that we've been found out, it's just that we couldn't maintain how good we were around Christmas...

 

[stevee]

Too slow with the ball and too slow without it.

 

[peter merison]

I'd expect Lamela to come on for Wanyama with Dele dropping back

 

[NW1Spur]

If he brings on Dier for Wanyama or something shit like that I'm switching off.

 

[Radical Rei]

it's not fucking done yet.


I swear man wtf are people smoking. We are in the semi final of the champions league with zero investment and numerous fucking dodgy players. This is a dream ffs.

shame we loool like we haven't got anymore in the tank but that's down to a chairman that's fucked us royally. With this squad Poch has done a minor miracle ffs.

I don't mind us getting knocked out of the Semis with the lack of investment we have had.

But not like this we gave up in the first second that's not acceptable

 

[Nabil Bentaleb]

It exposes a weak point for us certainly.

Shit full backs. Plays a tactic that is very dependent on them. What the hell

 

[SpiderSpurs]

Management are ultimately responsible for what happens on the pitch

So you think we should get rid of Poch?

 

[superstaryid]

I'd give WP the nod in preference to Foyth, but definitely Oli Skipp for Wanyama.

Half time replays show how cynical they were for the 1st goal - blocked everyone off so the big man could head it.

So what it's a fair goal

 

[OffTheBench]

Why can't we defend corners anymore? Need a new defensive coach I reckon.

I have a nagging feeling that 5 years of the same management and pretty much the same team has resulted in stagnation and the opposition finding it much easier to counteract our play. Just contrast this season to 2016/17.
2-3 new players needed for next season (obviously) and maybe a shake up of the coaching staff.

 

[mummy]

I feel good about this one - reckon we'll break their hearts.
