If they can’t get game time with the injuries and suspensions we have I don’t see when they are ever going to play. I thought Postecoglou was supposed to be brave and give youth a chance because I’m not seeing it which is very disappointing.

I thought Gio had shot his bolt but he turned it around for us in the end.
UDog was superb.
Did I see PEH ask Veliz to sprint on to a through ball when he had another option, probably Son, to his left? And Dier make Veliz work as well after that?
Fkin hell.
Massive 3 points and a big window we’re not actually out of it, are we?
But he won’t do it, we all know that
Anyway happy new year to Spurs wherever you are- already ‘24 here in China

With the injured players returning and a couple of new signings potentially coming in, this is setting up to be an exciting 2nd half of the season for us.

Udogie’s physicality and engine is immense. Three times he saved us with recovery tackles and could have been played in at least twice for a one on one at the other end.
He’s a stud.

Don’t know where you saw that. Don’t think it happened at Celtic.
Anges style will create a lot of injury problems with the high intensity. We are obviously in dire need of squad depth but we need to get used to having many players out. We also need to anticipate ange eventually not getting anything out of his players for a whole season because they'd be so depleted of energy - will fans get on his back when this happens?? Same thing happened to klopp and poch. Though klopp changed things up and reduced playing intensity knowing it would be a hindrance long term.
Should we get into Europe then this will just compound the problem.
Enjoying the football of course and still can't believe we're only 3-6 points off top with all the injuries and suspensions to key players but I do think this is a big issue that Ange needs to tackle and find a way around eventually - the sooner the better

Strangely I thought that he really came to life when Bentancur went off. I thought he was below par up until then - maybe subdued with Rodrigo pulling the strings?

Very happy to be proved wrong . Stats of letting opposition teams have 24 shots are never clever but we also had some good chances . Good day all round .Sorry for the negativity but I just can’t see a win today , agree with others that we will need to score 3 and that’s quite an ask when u consider deki is out and son looked like he was playing in quick sand on Thursday . One last push before the new year

oh no it isn't!
This has become a weird stick to beat Ange with. Especially since he has regularly played youngsters (20-22 year olds) this season anyway.
We’ve got a real make-shift team right now due to injuries. Despite that, we’re just 3 points off the top!
Ange is putting out the team he thinks has the best chance of winning, because you know, despite the way some people here talk on here, we have quite a lot to play for!
We should be celebrating another really good win instead of bitching about Ange not playing a couple of teenagers. It’s weird.

Great result, full of guts and character! Was impressed with our effort considering we're at half strength and Le Celso looks every inch the player he was in pre-season good to see him turning his fortunes round.
Our defence as it is will always concede just great that the cutting edge was there, looked sharp today. Horrible shame for Sarr/Veliz we've been so jinxed with injuries. Hopefully 2024 brings a turnaround on that front and good to see Bentancur back was a solid boost to the midfield.
Gooners being beaten again perfect end to 2023 Lego head's mood matched the weather dark and doomed, long may it continue COYS!!

Was the rain as bad in the first half? Was watching it, but was a bit 'blurry' so didn't notice it first half, second half looked horrid!
A win and 3 points with players we are missing is all that is important ( if only we could stop losing more players). First half we struggled but looked better in the second half. Hopefully Veliz and Sarr injuries are too bad and we get a few more back in January to go with any of our new signings!......
Udogie looked like he was suffering a bit also.
