Match Threads Brighton vs Spurs

[easley91]

Get Son off.

 

[felmani26]

Johnson is an impact sub when the game is stretched.

Not aggressive enough to take his fullback on and too technically deficient to compensate.

Appreciate needs must right now with injuries but he ultimately shouldn't be starting games for us in our strongest XI.

 

[nedley]

Up there with one of Son's worst games in a Spurs shirt.

 

[mattstev2000]

Crap performance by the team and a crap performance by Ange. Bad team selection and subs too late as usual.

 

[Tonio]

Johnson not impressing me it has to be said.

 

[JoaoPereira]

is Johnson allergic to challenges? what a fucking soft player...

 

[thecook]

Johnson not good enough yet. I know he’s one for the future and all that but he’s poor.

He'll be on loan next season

 

[Fredo]

this is worse than chelsea

 

[Oscar22]

Crikey, Sons on the plane already isn’t he. Woeful.

 

[FinnYid]

Emerson and Son out, don't care who comes in

 

[13VanDerBale13]

Please just take off Emerson.
At least gain some benefit from the game by bringing on Phillips

No doubt Dier will start on Sunday

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

All this does is just confirm what we already know and have known for the last few years. Squad is just not good enough, when we are missing our starters the level drops to lower mid table standard.

So much of the dross in our squad needs to be moved on, but they've been here for years

this.

Although that aside it has been a particularly poor performance all round tonight.

 

[Daredevil]

Painful.

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Johnson’s cowardice is really angering me

 

[Thenewcat]

It’s crazy how much this squad still needs overhauling.

To be fair, if it was overhauled with Romero, Van de Ven, Bentancur, Maddison, Bissouma, Solomon and Perisic it would look a lot better. We are criminally short at CB, and at least one forward short. But no team is set up to handle a list like that. City lose De Bruyne and Rodri and they look a shadow of the side.

I don’t get why Lo Celso isn’t out there, but otherwise Sarr, Hojbjerg and Kulu is not actually a bad midfield when you’re missing 3 stars and another option. What would (for example) arsenal’s
Midfield look like if you took out Rice, Odegaard and Jorginho, plus a depth option like elneny? That’s the equivalent of Bissouma, Bentancur and Maddison being out plus skipp

 

[spursboy2008]

Clueless by the Manager…. I’d advise any talented youngsters to not sign for this club… they won’t get an opportunity.

 

[punkisback]

You must be very young

Unfortunately not. I have seen some very poor strikers for us since rhe 90s. Even Chris Armstrong had better prem seasons then Richarlison has ever had.

 

[stormfly]

This could be 5 or 6 let’s hope we get one at least let’s write this one off and move on.

 

[nedley]

More subs please.

 

[yojambo]

Johnson such a wimp man. Pulls out of everything.
