Spurs vs Arsenal Match Thread

Wow - that was a painful injury time to endure. A little bit of poo came out.

7 points from the last 9......proper bottle jobs as the saying goes

Imagine the faces on the Arse fans when they realize they have spent ~120M on 2 different varieties of an ersatz French Defoe. Actually PEA is offsides more than Defoe and neither finishes like him.

It's gonna take me hours to de-stress from that...

On the plus side let's hope we broke lacazette

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Fucking tense last 10 but

This is a tight tussle, hampered by the ever present deficiencies. Ponderous midfield pair who can dink it from A to B and back again all day long, but can't do A to C or D. The pair of them are also really flat footed and one paced when Arsenal do counter, and when Arsenal do counter they worry me because they are constantly getting numerical over loads and with the brains they have in their ranks, you fear they will pick the right pass sooner or later.

Wanyama's passing is better than Dier's too, he moves it quicker and more vertically, like last week at Liverpool where it was his pass that got Eriksen in behind.

And Son has got to work back and stop that Bellerin out ball.

If you're gonna slag off Dier and Dembele, it's probably best not to do it before the game is over. Stops you looking foolish. Both magnificent today, particularly Dier who was superb defensively.

That should have been 3 or 4... Cech had a blinder annoyingly. But a strong performance and we cement our lordship of North London.

Lamela is different gravy.

 

[dirtyh]

Jesus fucking Christ.

Well done spurs.

 

[fatpiranha]

We need to be more clinical. We absolutely bossed that but we are so reliant on Harry when we should have won comfortably. Still ... first world problems .

I've ejaculated everywhere.

 

[Gb160]

People moaning about about missed chances lol
On another day Harry's volley and Trips volleys would go straight in the corner, they were lucky it was one nil.
We battered them, despite the score line.

 

[gerishep]

Where the f*** did 4mins xtra time come from.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

I think it was that sub choice that precipitated the dropping off though, BC.

Nah, it was already happening, We stopped pressing but kept playing the high line, asking for trouble against Arsenal.

 

[Indisguise]

I've ejaculated everywhere.

And I thought it was snowing...

 

[glacierSpurs]

LOL at Lamela. Gotta be honest I love that side of him, he's a little shitbag when it comes to the big games, love his fire

He was repeatedly swearing at wheelchair not long after he came on. Not surprised that piece of shit must be saying something nasty to Lamela.

 

[thinktank]

Up to 3rd, 7 points ahead of scumbags, and we go into our CL match full of confidence.

Nice.

 

[Cornpattbuck]

Bar our finishing, that was a superb performance. We made them look like school children for most of the game and especially the second half. Dembele was phenomenal.

 

[mrlilywhite]

Ahh man my bacon sarnies nearly came back up.....Those last few mins should never have been so tense, but bloody hell we created enough chances to win 5 games! A great win and soooooo happy to turn over those twats down the road! #TheTideHasTurned #NorthLondonIsOurs

 

[Ledders Army]

What a win. Should have been 4 or 5 nil. The potential of this team is massive

 

[nferno]

Yeah I thought he was gonna bring Kane off to a 3 minute walk off to a standing ovation. Luckily it wasn't needed, but it could have stopped that free kick from happening at the end there.

I think we got lucky Lacazette wasn’t on it, could have ended so differently.

I don’t want to bring negativity into this thread but I really am perplexed when Poch isn’t proactive enough, I can’t see any negatives from bringing someone else on for those last 4 minutes. All I can see is the positives of 1) wasting a few seconds 2) and a fresh problem for the other team to think about so we aren’t so hemmed in our own half.
