Match Threads Palace vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 4 - KO 12:30pm

[13VanDerBale13]

This is a sure bet!

anti football… against CRYSTAL PALACE! Absolutely disgraceful stuff, first goal attempt around 50th minute. And Nuno said he was going to make us proud?

Theres a reason why Wolves fans were delighted to let him go, Levy needs a huge chunk of blame too. He gets away with it far too often & once again we've been let down & lied to. DNA MY ASS

Awful performance. Three water carriers in midfield with no subtlety. Unfortunately shifting Dele further forward just reintroduced flicky Ali. Our defence was wafer thin. All the injuries and absences cant excuse this pea heart turn out

 

[bsinghd]

I doubt Paratici was thinking that way with this appointment. For Poch to return he'd want a lot more control than is likely under this DOF.

I also suspect that Real are waiting on him. Ancelotti was more of a stop-gap appointment for them than Nuno is for us.

Why would any sane person want to manage Spurs? There’s no way Poch is coming back to Spurs as manager/coach within the next 10 years, he knows how Levy operates and could pick any top club when he leaves PSG. Spurs are on a downward trend, our best period in 40 years passed us by rather than being built upon due to complacency and arrogance by those in charge.!

 

[anydange]

are you serious!!???

He is. I belly laughed when he said it.

 

[barry]

Can't be arsed anymore. I'm done

 

[Russ1201]

He will forget coz he wasn't playing against Saha ?

Just joking mate ?

 

[chrissivad]

I wouldn’t say controlled the game but Palace created bugger all prior to the sending off.

They were on top before the sending off.

The game was just a mess from us. We only had Lucas on who would take on players, and they just fouled him.

While I'd have liked to have seen one of those 2 come on, it was a physical game with all the players kicking each other all game. Gil is recovering from a knock, and you can't trust that Tanguy will be up for the fight. I do think that if you arent prepared to throw them on, they shouldn't be on the bench though.

If everyone had been available, that midfield and front 3 looks very different.

It was only a physical game because we allowed Palace to bring us bring us to their game, which they were always going to be better at. The very few times we looked like a threat were when Lucas ran with the ball. We really need another player that could run with the ball through the middle or a player that could make progressive passes under pressure either way, Gil or Ndombele would have relieved some of the pressure and given them more to worry about IMO.

 

[ilikeost]

Found one of them then!

I think we should have more depth up top, but I think it had almost zero impact on the game. What lost us the game was the complete cowardice of playing Winks, Dele, Skipp and Hojbjerg in midfield.

 

[DannyNZ]

Moura the only player that put in some effort

Bit harsh, thought Rodon did well and also thought Reggie was good.

 

[daniel chagas]

Nuno just said we controlled the game in the first half ????

Oh, we are so screwed.

 

[crazyguitarman]

The Levy hate in this thread is genuinely so childish.

Levy didn’t choose Nuno, he didn’t choose the team today. He wasn’t responsible for 6 of our first team players being unavailable today.

Hate on him in the transfer window all you like but the team we put out today was still more than capable of winning and not being on the back end of a 3-0 loss.

Lmao, is the first time you have ever witnessed a result like this with Spurs? If it was all just bad luck you would think it would have evened out at some point, but it happens again and again and the only other constant is Daniel Levy.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

We were dogshit even before the red.

We can’t hide behind the ref. We’ve been awful for a long time, over the later stages of Pochettino and consistently throughout the last 18 months

 

[PLTuck]

Can't be arsed anymore. I'm done

You'll be back on Thursday and you know it ?

 

[whitesocks]

Midtable sides lose at places like palace - that's the way it is.
#sayno will take the blame and this result and performance has badly winged him.
But the fault lies with parasiti, for a dreadful transfer window. I've no idea why he is worshipped on spurs community.

 

[wayneg]

Can't wait for the spurs official interview with Nuno...

Nuno we battled really hard for 60 mins, then the sending off.

Missing a lot of players but we fought hard.

Games now coming thick and fast, we need to dust ourselves down for Thursday.


Would love for once that we could ask some decent questions...

Nuno - why after producing nothing in the first half did you not change for the second half?

Nuno - once we went 1-0 down did you not make an attacking change to get back into the game?

Nuno - our performances against Wolves, Watford were not great but we managed a 1-0 win, which glossed over a lot, today we did get found out, is the style going to remain the same going forward?

They weren't delighted LOL.

Go back and watch any video of his last game, many were gutted. Of course there were some who felt it was the end for him and a tiny percentage didn't like his style but they weren't 'delighted'.

We have problems running deeper than the coach.

 

[spurs9]

I wouldn’t say controlled the game but Palace created bugger all prior to the sending off.

They were looking comfortable from about 30 mins and looking more and more dangerous as time went on prior to the sending off.

 

[hamsup_sotong]

He cost Dier his injury as well with that hospital ball

slight deflections on both

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Loving having our flair back.

I know. It’s like asking your barber for a mullet and coming out with a combover
