Not a great half of football lets be honest, you need to be technically on it in conditions like these and a few are not... (I'll let you decide who they are )

Alli needs to speed up his play and keep it simple, as moves are just ending when they get to him.

Would introduce Lamela ASAP need to give him at least 30 minutes if we are not ahead by then.

Lamela must still have a knock. He has to. Surely?

Lamela on please. Lacking a lot of creativity without Eriksen

We’re already a stodgier side without Eriksen. Compounding that by playing Dier, Dembele and Sissoko together in this game is an utter joke.

unlike Trips, who seems to come in for a lot of unwarranted criticism to me

This thread is more about sissoko than anything else! You'd honestly think 0-0 was solely his doing.

Edit 1-1

This game is easy to win...poch just has to make the early changes.

It really is that simple.

If I am reading this right, everyone bar Vorm, Davies, Jan and Kane have been shit.

One apiece at the half. Hopefully an improvement on a sloppy first 45 we've just seen to come in the second.

COYS!

This game has been pretty dire, not as bad as the Swansea game, but at least then we couldmblame the weather.

It's tipping down and has been for 72 hours.

Blimey.

Replacing CE with Sissoko is like asking Wanyama to stand in for Kane.

Be honest, how many of you have got Sissoko in their squad as CE’s back-up?

He isnt in my squad so not sure i can answer that unless mowing the turf counts

Played pretty terribly, lucky to be level. Hopefully they used up a lot of energy in that half as they were pressing a lot. Still think if we can put a decent 15 minute spell together we can score a couple of goals and finish them off.

Sadly for Poch, that is anything but simple.

I keep mentioning the pitch but maybe, with him just returning from a year out, they are looking at it out there and bubble wrapping him. Maybe.

That really was shit...

Poch needs to show us he can change it this time round as that is as bad as West Ham at home a few weeks ago where we dropped points, did he learn and will he make early changes.

I am sorry but if we don't get 3pts today, the CL dream could be over with our next 4 games

i think its bad to constantly trash players that does not deserve so but sissoko.. He can't do anything - every match he's just clueless and useless. Its starting to get tragicomic. He's got an enormous physique and thats all. its a shame he doesn't have the means to use it to its full potential - imagine the player he could have been.
