Match Threads Spurs vs Borussia Dortmund - Match Thread

[walton]

Lucas better last five. He's being crowded out massively.

 

[jonnyp]

So sloppy

 

[fortworthspur]

need to pull off a CB at the half and put on Lamela or Llorente. its too easy for Dortmund to defend as it is

 

[shelfmonkey]

Not to impressed with our tackling. We are driving in all over the place.

They're just too quick for us. So much better on the ball than us.

It's bad when Sissko is this much off!

 

[Fidget]

Would 0-0 be a bad result.

no

 

[hutchiniho]

Son is head and shoulders above the rest on the ball for us atm. Full of confidence.

Get that slight 'Bale' feeling when he get possession. Feel like something good could happen.

 

[ItsBoris]

Have Son and Moura forgotten how to pass the ball or something? Keep holding onto it until it's easily stripped off them. Pass it sooner FFS

 

[GutBucket]

Would 0-0 be a bad result.

Not conceding at home is always great in CL IMO. Dortmund is also better than us, so I would be happy with that.

 

[thinktank]

Yep. When it's like this I feel like we're wasting a half away, nothing is happening. I can understand a cautious approach, but you have to offer more than just long balls from the centre backs.

I don't actually think Dortmund have looked that great to be honest. A couple of dangerous breaks but I thought there would have been more from the team of the top of the German league. Unfortunately when set out like this we can't really take out game to our opposition as we normally could, it's all a bit reserved.

Indeed.

I think with the crowd behind us and with the wide players in the A3 of a 4231 willing to track back and muck in, we would beat them in an open back and forth game tonight with the fans behind us.

Poch not feeling adventurous, though.

 

[Kirito]

Sancho for £8 mill and we missed him is proper gutting.

Don't you start.

 

[The Apprentice]

Lots of players techniques are struggling under the scrutiny. Aurier, Sissoko, Moura and Son all very willing Triers, but their technique in tight situations like this often lead to coughing up the ball.

Love games like this. Proper arm wrestles.

 

[DFF]

Us too tbf

They have more missing than us. 4 or 5.

 

[Paolo10]

Could we get at least one tight decision, being at home and all you fucking **** referee?

 

[Grapo2001]

Would 0-0 be a bad result.

Not at all. Was saying earlier that if we are within one goal of them it will be a good result.

 

[Johnny J]

Let's go 4 2 3 1 and get at them. We need to win this.

 

[ajspurs]

Unlucky from Winks, good to see him look for that pass.

 

[rez9000]

Save!

 

[glacierSpurs]

Have no idea why we couldn't pass quicker like them in the final third.

Jadon Sancho is the new Ben Chilwell
