Match Threads Inter Milan vs Spurs - Match Thread

i need to go make some pancakes b4 2nd off but i think the 2nd half holds opportunity for us. happy we're not starting the half 3 down...

Apart from gifting them chances inter haven't been anything , their support is much better than their play right now

Davies shocking, seems he had just decided to hide for the last 15 instead of continuing to give up possession

Aurier on the other side however has been solid quality

Overall decent half away to inter, weren't we 3 down at this point last time we played these

 

[muppetman]

I didn't think that was too bad - hardly a superb performance but OK and if Kane could have taken that chance. . .

Isn't this what European football largely is in the group away games - don't concede, keep it sensible and nick a goal?

 

[maltahotspur]

This side looks tired, unorganized and just overall awful.

Which side ours or theirs?

 

[heelspurs]

loads of space for aurier but dembele plays it behind him, how we lack a mid that can play passes with ease. grew into the half, thought aurier had a decent half

Don't forget the 3-4 touches before passing and that it dribbled out there. So slow.

 

[Tonio]

Don't think Barcelona have Jack shit to worry about.

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Its a bit sad that Inter are relying on play acting and hounding the ref in the first half of the first home game of the CL

 

[Dannyspur]

Their Italian it's standard practice

I think you mean they're Italian.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

I missed the first 30 minutes, but from what I saw of the last 15, we looked in control and sharp.

Some turgidness from the usual suspects though...

 

[mrlilywhite]

Honestly, i'm gonna say it - Kane needs to either find his old self or we need a different way forward. For everyone blaming Moura for Kane's issue is a joke - Kane has been very poor with his overall game and Poch needs to be "brave" and look at deploying a system with pace. We don't scare anyone right now.

 

[theShiznit]

Two teams lacking in confidence and form playing like two teams lacking in confidence and form...

Lets hope our superior ability will see out in the end.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

If we can stay calm and be positive, and Davies remembers how to play football, I still believe we can get something second half.

 

[nedley]

Would bring on kwp at HT.

Nah.

Strong argument for Rose though.

 

[crokey]

We aren't beating legendary European club Inter Milan 5-0 away from home at half time! We are shit!

 

[Grapo2001]

Got better as the half went on. Aurier has played well, as has Son and Lamela.

 

[1882andallthat]

Very frustrating to see us making the same mistakes again and again in our own half, playing dangerous passes out from the back and inviting trouble again and again, playing the ball back into tight areas where we are closed down time and time again, it is just plain stupidity, against a better side, we would have been punished.

 

[paulcumpstone]

I never expected it to be an easy game, just frustrates the hell out of me seeing the same thing all the time, we preserve with this passing out from the back but neither dembele or dier is good enough when they are facing there own goal being pressed and we just give up possession far too often in dangerous area for so little reward, feel we need to mix up our play more, either go longer or lamela or Eriksen needs to come inbetween the lines more

 

[isaac94]

Christ Davies has been shit in that half, can't remember him doing one single worth any praise

 

[TheAmerican]

Which side ours or theirs?

Ours. We have been dispossessed 8 times. Inter has been poor as well, but this doesn't resemble the Spurs sides we've been seeing the past few seasons.

 

[JCRD]

We will come out with a bit more oomph i feel

Aurier has been good i think - our best player - i know not saying much but still
