Match Threads Liverpool vs Spurs - Match Thread

[DFF]

I don’t think Eriksen would be tolerated at any other top 6 club. Even Emery had the balls to drop Ozil.

 

[werty]

Cashing in on Dembele lowballing on Grealish. If we somehow finish fifth we get exactly what we deserve.

Doesn't matter if we had Dembele in his pomp if they can just play the ball from one full-back to another.

 

[LukaMotion]

Has Foyth ever been considered as a DM? Obviously inexperienced but in his brief time I think he has looked at least as good as Dier on the ball.

I don't think anyone's ever suggested that before, you might be onto something...

The players deserve better than this. The same shit every time we play 532. It's insanity. I'd really love to be in the meeting they decide to play this formation. They must have some sort of memory loss because we always have to change the formation during the first half when we do play it, yet we try it again and again. Not to put anyone in front of the best attacking full-backs in the league is incompetence. Hopefully the penny will drop eventually this season before it cost in the top 4

On the brightside, we've had a few good moments going forward and they look nervy, so we're still in it.

Its fucking madness like they have’nt watched or played against Liverpool in the last two seasons they are full back heavy

Yeah. Every week on this forum in the "Team vs" threads.

Walker had years left on his contract but told Poch he’d like to consider his options at the end of the season:

Poch drops him.

Eriksen has tactically held the club at ransom by running down his contract and not committing to the club because he wants to leave. He mentally checks out and his performances go completely down the pan:

Poch plays him continuously.

Poch holds himself as a man of principle, but the way he’s handled both situations has been fucking stupid.

I don't think the Walker and Eriksen comparisons are at all comparable, by all accounts Walker told Poch that he wanted to leave, all Eriksen hasn't done is sign a contract.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Fucking lol. We are not winning or remaining matches.

Don’t bring Brexit into it

 

[mpickard2087]

If anyone was going off for lack of effort so far, it would be Kane. He should be sitting there at HT feeling embarrassed about how it's gone so far. It's not just Van Dijk who has manshamed him so far, it's been any Liverpool player who he has come into contact with.

It's not easy for a centre forward in a game like this, but he must get better and show a modicum of fight.

 

[JimmyG2]

Convinced that with a little bit of luck

we can

draw this.

sssh.

All Eriksen hasn't done is turn up for a good while.

Pochettino absolutely knows why Eriksen won’t sign a contract and that’s because he wants to leave. Some things don’t need to be said.

In fact, i’d say it’s worse that Eriksen says nothing on it.

 

[yankspurs]

Van Dijk has dominated Kane in every aerial battle so far. Definitely proving his worth in this game

Not just aerial. VVD is making Kane look like a nobody today in every aspect.

 

[felmani26]

Eriksen getting panned but tell me what the fuck Alli and Kane did that half then?!

Further evidence of what should be the staple in our tactics that's lacking - the Poch press...

 

[n0.1.spurs]

Should move Verts to LB push rose further up and put Son or Lucas on the right to stop their FB’s more imo.

Lol...you are launching conspiracy theories. This is just way off IMO.
None of us knows whats going on with Eriksen.

 

[yankspurs]

We will win 3 2

We got these ****s

We will lose 4-0

 

[nedley]

Selling Dembele and not replacing him was wrong which ever way you guise it.

 

[dickieven]

You bunch of miserable fuckers do not deserve this team. Go and fucking support (or should I say winge) someone else.

They have had one shot on target and scored. We are well in this game. Similar to last season at the moment. A strong start to the second half and they will wobble. They have more at stake than us and are making more mistakes of us. COYS

 

[Fredo]

Why is Trippier starting? All Robertson has to do is kick the ball and he's done for and he's through. Why is Son not starting? Basically our most inform player. Why is Eriksen starting? Been so shit for weeks

 

[ardiles]

Micky got injured yesterday so may have to rely on Teemu Tainio.

Not sure he’d want to leave the pie shop though.
