Match Threads PSV Eindhoven vs Tottenham Hotspur FC - Match Thread

[olliec]

can't blame Poch if he walks to UTD end of the season. Really pissed off with this team, and his ambitions are obviously higher than just qualifying for the CL which will be such a struggle this season.

Yep.

But equally I think it's shameful that the club charge the premium prices they do for the less-than-premium product they put out. Obviously, the laws of supply and demand mean that they can get away with overcharging the fans and getting away with it, but just because our fans will overpay for their tickets, I don't let the club off for exploiting them.

There's a lot to like about Tottenham Hotspur in 2018, but even in an industry where nearly all football clubs are excessively avaricious, we are unusually greedy rip-off merchants with regards to our loyal fanbase.

I wouldn't disagree with your opening statement but as the consumer with the plastic in your pocket you have a choice, rough with the smooth.

If you dislike the 'politics' behind the club you love then the choice is harder. Personally, if I felt that strongly, then voting with my wallet would be the way forward and not on the internet, on a forum of all places.

The ref though - my word, words fail me

 

[ljinko888]

We don't kill games anymore.

 

[Colston]

Eriksen blaming it all on the ref, pretty much suggesting he's taken a bung...

I'm not one for conspiracy theories so I doubt he has, but if he did I'd be hard pressed to remember any games where it has been more obvious.

PSV got free kicks for falling over randomly like old ladies.

 

[Riandor]

Not good enough.
Didn’t take chances, got too complacent again with only a one goal lead.

Ref was poor, but we shot ourselves in the foot.

 

[ajspurs]

Unbelievable, that is shocking. Shouldn't have been in cruise mode at just 2-1, again caught sitting on a one goal lead.

Then there's Lloris, I think he's a great keeper, but he is far from indispensable with all these mistakes he keeps making. Just overly rash

It's worrying, because you can take losing to decent teams, but PSV and Inter were both fucking shit and we failed to beat both of them. I think it just highlights how we're struggling as a team at the moment. We have enough quality to see us over most games, but we really lack the ability to impose ourselves as much as we should be.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

I missed some of the game putting the little one to bed. Did it make sense subbing Moura? He looked decent in the first half

What are the chances that we run into Chelsea or Arsenal in the Europa League and fuck it up? It's almost a mortal lock isn't it?

 

[g_harry]

Don't understand this fucking complacency when in total control. The inter & psv games we were in total control but gave it away. It's like they beat R Madrid last year and they think there right to win these games.

 

[Krule]

I have stated many times that you cannot have an 'influential' captain who stands between two posts right at one end of the pitch...just doesn't work. If the country think Harry Kane is good enough to lead them then why doesn't the club ??.
Lloris has proved once again his fragility in the really big matches and that erodes confidence amongst the team. Yes he's pulled us out of the shit in many a match with some unbelievable saves but usually in a league fixture against mid table opposition. There's just this "Achilles heel" he seems to have whenever we play either a top top team or a vitally important match....a sudden rush of blood to the head and the points are lost. Very,very hard to accept.....

 

[isaac94]

Pissed of with Lloris, pissed off with Dier thinking his better than he is, the weak mentality, the defensive frailties

 

[The Apprentice]

We’ve picked up this strange habit this season of trying to control a one goal lead rather than kill a game off. Whenever we step into cruise mode, you just know an error is around the corner.

Putting the game to bed is much needed.

 

[dirky88]

Ref is gay. There’s always next season. Concentrate on the league now ?

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Have to wait until Monday...... To play City ????

 

[SpursD22]

Can someone pop round and see if he's alright?

I’m alright mate, you get used to this shitty feeling after so many years. The pain is still there but you learn to cope with it and admit your life already sucks if you depend on Spurs to be happy

 

[shelfboy68]

can't blame Poch if he walks to UTD end of the season. Really pissed off with this team, and his ambitions are obviously higher than just qualifying for the CL which will be such a struggle this season.

Although Utd are not great he would definitely get backing as you can't see them issuing a statement that says we couldn't find anyone to buy so we bought no one it just would not and will not happen at a club like Utd as they would be a laughing stock.

 

[DiscoD1882]

At least trips can create Davies is pony at both ends of the pitch.

He is fucking guff. End of.

So many years? You're '19' ... LOL

 

[Dannyspur]

even more diffic

We still have some way to go to qualify for the Europa before we can fuck it up!
