I thought whole team was terrible yesterday. It was like avb at his worse mixed with tim sherwoods organisation

No pressing
No desire
No plan before and after the sending off
No edge

Makes you wonder why we got shot of Sherwood, really… :whistle:

And some will say, 'It's only QPR'.
People are always like that. I remember a few people saying while Bitey was at Pool that he only performs against the small clubs.

Look, if our whole team only performed against the small clubs, I wouldn't care. Most clubs in the league are small clubs - they are the ones you play every week. And if you win every game against the wee ones (everyone 'cept Utd, City, Pool, Chels, Arse and Everton) then you get 78 points. And if that doesn't get top 4 then I'm not sure what will.

Then again, we're pushing for the title atm, so 4th should simply be a backup target. :D

Haha, for some reason I imagine you creating a list like this after a shag.

Negative about everything

You honestly think this guy would be able to get a shag?

I'm sure the birds are lined up round the block to be endlessly criticised about their blowjob techniques before they've even got his pants down.

But last season we did, which is why we finished just three points shy of our 2012-13 total, despite doing far worse against the Sky Five.

So we barely showed anything on the season opener and people are already looking for scapegoats?

Let me tell you something people, this isn't just about Lamela or Eriksen, this is about the whole team. We need to give our players some time to develop a good chemistry. Just what the fuck are you expecting after less than a month of pre season and just one competitive game under a new manager?

Please lets save all these "Lamela is nothing special" posts for a couple of months at least.

Managers are not magicians. In two months I can absolutely guarantee if the personnel is the same you'll still be seeing the same type of performances because the team is desperately short of class in attacking areas. I like Pochettino, but maybe it's time for people to stop thinking that this group of players are brilliant really and just need a manager. It doesn't work like that.

Have we really seen his class ?

Here goes my unpopular opinion :



There is not one game or a 30 minute duration where he has been good for us. If we scrutinize, FC Sheriff if the only one that comes to mind. Apart from that game, there has not been a single game, he has played a average game. One of the PL stat I saw last week, showed he has a abysmal passing accuracy.

I am not asking for a world class performance; Yesterday, we saw Tadic play for Southamton. Just within few touches he showed his creativity & class. Take the examples of our academy youngsters - Bentaleb & Mason - when they got their chance, they have taken it and gained respect within our club & outside. Even Dier, who is a 20 year old CB, needed just one competitive game to show his skills.

I often hear the excuse - he was injured. If so, let me clarify - I am only talking about the team he did play without injury.

If Lamela has shown his class, then his class is poor.

Just for a brief moment, detach yourself being a Spurs fan. Honestly, on hind sight will you buy him again?

But I agree with your last line.

All we have is hope; hope that some day he will come good. Hope that our record signing doesn't become a laughing stock.

He has not even been a flash in the pan.

wasnt really poor at all. i said 5 mins into his debut that he is special. he was just an 18 playing football having some great games and some quieter ones. always was a threat and involved though

Not sure comparing him to Ronald OS a good idea, CR in his first season as an 18 year old was voted MU player of the season.

Not sure why people get so uppity about whether he will make it of not. This basic situation is this;

We all want him to succeed. No one knows whether he will of not. If he doesn't we will sell him and lose a little money. If he does we will sell him in a couple of years and make money.

IMO we need to give him game time to see which way he goes but I think everyone needs to stop obsessing over individual players.
