Match Threads Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur - Match Thread

[Thewobbler]

My last 20 negative reps have been for saying precisely this.
Kane has been really poor in the last 5-6 games he's been in. Time to open your eyes people.

Cue the two golden boots quotes.

3...2...1...

You never drop kane....ever. That being said, we have rushed him back.

All those demanding Lucas and Toby every game stop and think.

All those who have spent two seasons mouthing off Sissoko, stop and think about Aurier.

This game is one of our worst results this year due to the timing. We have just invited Chelsea back into the race for top four. Five points wasted over two games. That is flat out unacceptable when Levy will demand CL football going into the new stadium.

I am so dejected right now. Feel gutted. But hopefully we'll make it up.

Don't need to stop and think about toby as he is quality and didnt put a foot wrong tonight. Ont he other hand we now see why moura hasn't started games.

Just win the FA Cup and finish in 4th. Nothing else matters and anything less would be a failure.

Only comfort is that ManU are no great team. The big problem is Mourinho is as rial triply winner and Poch is still to convince me he can take us over the finish line

Poch out if we lose Saturday?

 

[SugarRay]

10 points cut to 5 if Chelsea win on Thursday. We shouldn't have to be depending on other teams from the position we were in at the end of last weekend.


Fuming.

As annoying as it is, we won’t be relying on other teams. It’s in our hands completely.
Our GD is much better than theirs too.

 

[Woodyy]

Although Its annoying we dropped the points. I'm glad it was against Brighton. Chris Hughton is a very solid manager and as an ex player I want him to do well.

Nah Brighton are boring as fuck and I hope they get relegated

 

[ClintEastwould]

We sucked and honestly Kane is clearly not fit at all. Rushed back. Much like my ankle a few weeks back when I tried skating again soon after and am now just hobbling around. Except I'm not a damn pro.

 

[tiger666]

The cup is the cup and could go either way, but I wanted top 3.

So did I. Given Wembley etc, I expected top six.

 

[SdB]

Aurier and Sissoko cannot be accommodated in the same team. Like playing with 9 men.
Get rid of both of them.

 

[mpickard2087]

Miserable display. Last few games now have a whiff of us stumbling with the finish line in sight..... Can we find one last burst and power on for those last few metres?

 

[mrlilywhite]

Not a great game by any stretch, but bloody hell some of the comments in here tonight are beyond rational...

 

[Zippy1980]

Some fans on here don’t remember when we had a truly shite season

 

[TTID2002]

Two very poor performances in a row. Kane looks shy of confidence / tired, we haven't kept a clean sheet in 5 PL games, without an aging Dembele the midfield looks aimless, Lloris dip in form, defensive backs shaky. Need to steady the ship because Chelsea are 5 points back with 4 to go.

 

[Frozen_Waffles]

And to think some of you guys want Wanyama over Dier, give me a break.

We are in desperate need of technical players. Kane should have been dragged off at half time. If Eriksen is having an off day it's pretty much no t worth watching.

And Tony gale is a complete nobjockey

NO player is bigger than the team. Case in point Sergio Aguero.

 

[Donki]

Clinching Top4 is more important than the game at the weekend

Absolutely no reason why we shouldn’t be going’s balls out for the remaining games.

Yeah, we must be allowed to say a player has a bad streak. He's still one of the worlds greatest strikers, but every player has periods where they're not on top of their game. Kane obviously has one of those periods now.

The problem is though, he is a man for big games. Dropping him in a semi final could be stupid, as he suddenly could score a hattrick in that game. Probably should have gotten a rest in this game.

 

[samspurs92]

These lot were sloppy at best against Palace yet we couldn't string a pass together, absolute shambles tonight. Losing to City has obviously mentally affected the team

We’ve been playing shit since we beat Chelsea and then everyone also found out what Daniel Levy has paid himself.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the players are pissed off that we under pay them but Levy is paid more than double any other chairman.

 

[ajspurs]

Had we bothered it could have been. They're that far down the table for a reason....

We were crap, sluggish and slow, but Brighton sat deep, worked their arses off and made it hard too. West Brom just beat United at Old Trafford.... These teams at the bottom always have the potential to make life hard for you at this stage of the season if you're not at the top of your game.

 

[Tonio]

Fucking hell you lot are a miserable bunch of ****s sometimes. We rested a few with our league objectives looking good in the aim of winning a cup, played some who are struggling a little for form and fitness, and came away with a 1-1 draw against a team who are in the top half of the league for home form, remaining clearly in the Top 4 despite not having a proper home ground all season and being comfortably behind five other teams in terms of resourced. And people react like we've put in the worst performance ever and lost to an amateur side.

No it wasn't brilliant. You're always going to have better games and poorer games. But seriously, get some perspective and cheer up a little!

I don't know who you're trying to impress but ffs mate sometimes you just gotta concede we were shit.
