Match Threads Spurs vs Brentford -

"I just said he hasn't enough goals of his own so has to copy celebrations" haha

That was such a genius thing for madders to say to maupay. I love him

 

[GioW]

He's coming back from a long injury

Oh for sure ...just the way he has dropped like three 8/10 games and then gone off the boil.

But you're right tbf

I've never seen a Reddit match thread so universal in calling the ref a useless ****.

I never, ever complain about ref performances. but today I was fuming with him

Shithousey at its finest tonight. God if you have high blood pressure watching us will push you over the edge. A stomping 2nd half comeback but we will forever not make it easy for ours just madness at times this is what we wanted though like a pinball machine and rollercoaster rolled into one!

I have to say Toney would be great asset, has certainly made Brentford tick again. Werner stepped up 2nd half with an assist as well. Let's roll onto the next adventure, love it! COYS!

I'm not asking Ange to go full defensive or anything but maybe just telling the fullbacks to get back in position and focus on defending rather than acting as extra forwards when we're 3-1 up wouldn't be the worst decision.

But I think that is the point of his tactic which is to not rest on our laurels and continue playing aggressively and not rely on a 3-1 result.

Midfield was too static and one paced first half due to factors (mainly injury)

we were much better when Kulu moved in behind Richy with Madison as he has more room to work in there with options around him.

While there was a lot of sloppy and panicked play the positives were more minutes for Maddison, Bentancur and Mickey.

Sarr comes straight back in for me. We've missed his energy and non stop running, movement and covering for Porro.

Does Madders want to tell our rivals anymore tactically about us FFS lol

 

[McFlash]

Madders speak so well, just comes across as a fan of the game as well as a lovely bloke.

 

[T-Bone]

Brilliant second half. Well done Ange for the changes

 

[ReadieSpur]

Toney spent a lot of time offside. I think it really put us off when passing back. It also doesn't help when the ref and linesman keep on playing despite an offside.

He hasn’t looked the same after the Villa game

He's not 100% match fit yet.

 

[BorjeSpurs]

Oof. Still haven't decided it I'm feeling exhilarated, depressed, optimistic, or pessimistic after this. At least it was memorable and totally worth the travel and expense. And a top four win! Thank you London, thank you Spurs. As we say in Greece, εις το επανιδείν!

Had to google that one, fair play to the Greeks!

Was pretty decent against Man Utd

But I think that is the point of his tactic which is to not rest on our laurels and continue playing aggressively and not rely on a 3-1 result.

As I say, not asking him to stop playing aggressively just be sensible. You can still play attacking football with the fullbacks not solely playing upfront. The huge gaps in the fullback areas were a problem across the whole game but especially when Brentford were chasing the game hard.

Hook it to my veins

He's not 100% match fit yet.

He was looking good in the Villa game like he’d never been out but I just feel he’s gone a bit reserved after he got injured again.

 

[theShiznit]

It's good that we are willing to fight and scrap but when it's at the expense of keeping the ball and calmness in possession then it will have limited returns..

Really needed a cool head out there to get us up the pitch because we turned that into a much harder game than it should've been.

 

[nedley]

Anybody got a clip of that Norgaard body check?

 

[Aleks]

As I said in the Nusa thread, I hope Brentford get relegated

Also fans singing "Ivan Toney you should have cashed out" great stuff
