Match Threads Spurs vs Chelsea - Match Thread - Carabao Cup - Round 4

[Haddock]

Great recovery by Reggie.

Lamela must release the ball quicker, oh dear.

 

[cjbyid]

Ahhh erik why does he always try to 100 million things on the ball

 

[SpursSince1980]

Jesus Christ, Lamela! The ball isn’t your emotional support dog. Let him go!

 

[midoshairband]

I do wish Lamela would cut down these rolls and turns and just release the ball.

 

[samfinan]

After all the earlier formation debate it seems we are in fact playing the less used 5-5-0 formation... counting down the clock for Kane to come on for his allocated minutes..

 

[waresy]

Release the ball earlier ffs Lamela...

You can't fault him for effort but just play a pass!

 

[nedley]

I aint being funny chaps but this Gedson fella is fucking pony....

 

[hellava_tough]

After all the huff and puff, Chelsea have only had 3 shots.

 

[defoes5]

Not being funny but considering that this is almost all out B team against more of a Chelsea first team we’re not doing absolutely dreadfully, still not good enough though

 

[glacierSpurs]

What is the point in Sissoko actually being on the pitch? Seriously.

I couldn't even look for him. Fucking invisible and useless.

 

[JCRD]

We are playing a team full of backups with no striker. Not sure what some of you expected.

It's the manner. You can still pass and move and press, even with the players playing. Also are they all really back ups?

I take your point of course but think we can simply give it more of a go than what we are demonstrating currently that's all

 

[Phomesy]

Shame we are not there to let Reguillon know that he’s a YIDDO YIDDO YIDDO

 

[bigpalacios]

Imagine if Lamela had to play two touch football he would have a stroke

 

[philll]

*glares at Lamela*

 

[Mr Pink]

You can see that Reguilon will be really handy once he’s settled. He’s defo trying too hard but his recovery pace and ability to get up and down will be a massive asset.

And playing in a competent side will help to.

 

[Frozen_Waffles]

Fucking pass the fucking ball Erik

 

[tony0379]

Lamela needs to concentrate on when to release the ball and stop fucking about with his hair

 

[El Cakey]

Lamela is infuriating.... head up and a couple less touches and he might be useful

 

[dj2gee]

Lamela’s decision making is so infuriating...he could be so good. Just needs to get his head up more and release the ball quicker.

 

[stov]

Lamely has been woeful.
