Leicester vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[Streetspur77]

Resisting the temptation to tag @heelspurs whenever Alli does something good

Oops

 

[noggen]

My oh My how shit have we been since the Real game!

I wish Kane would think sometimes about not trying to do it all himself.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

2 goals for the Ashely Young Team.

Except he looks up and sees Sissoko

Yeah he's shit in goal

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Our end product is fucking atrocious at the moment.

You can go backs months and say that.

 

[ikky]

We are so shit at corners

Can't blame him, no-one else seems up to it.

 

[Sevens]

I've no idea why our pressing game has stopped when it's been our dna under Poch.

It's bewildering. Every game now I expect a reaction and it doesn't come.

United 2 up now ffs.

No holding midfielder. A proper defensive midfielder is crucial for consistency and I can't think of any successful teams that were successful without one. The role is crucial in possession as much as without as they are the fulcrum of the team.

We are missing Wanyama or Dier in the middle of the park.

 

[ajspurs]

Eriksen should have seen the run there.

 

[walton]

Commentator describes a Spurs corner as an 'area of concern' for Leicester. Obviously hasn't ever seen Spurs before.

 

[yusrisafri]

When Spurs won a corner, the commentator said "Leicester are in dangerous territory now". Commentator obviously has not been watching many of our games.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Good point. Who would he confidently pass to?

 

[Spurs 1961]

How many more times does he have to 'rip into them' at HT though?

Can't keep having poor first halves without some serious questions being asked about the preparation

This has been my biggest complaint under Poch. We seem to start games so slowly as though the first twenty minutes don't count and then we can't pick up the pace until too late. Only Son seems to play with any sense of urgency. Lamela perhaps will help as he always played on the front foot attempting to push the opposition back

 

[jonathanhotspur]

Get Lamela on. This is braindead stuff.

 

[Setzthree]

fuck short corners, really

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Aurier even throws in like Walker.

 

[Cravenspurs]

Any stats on on our corners? Horrific

 

[Doctor Dinkey]

I do wonder whether the players' realisation (and Poch's declaration) that we can't win the league this year has taken the sting out of this team. We've seen it happen before- when we finished third 2015/2016. They've lost a lot of their intensity, and it's odd how it seems to return when we play in the CL...
