Stoke Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[whitesocks]

MP is a lower midtable manager - we knew that from the start.
He has exceeded expectation this season fighting for 6th/7th place.
He is not going anywhere - unless we get tied up in the relegation zone next year -
so we just need to get used to this level of football.

Vlad's never going to get his dream move to Chelsea at this rate.

Wasn't it Real MAdrid?

 

[Monkey boy]

Chiriches is a disaster waiting to happen whenever he steps into the pitch, I'll say it again whoever scouted these arseholes needs shooting.

 

[JRegan]

it was a clear yellow he lost the ball and the stoke player was through straight to goal so he purposely took him down by pushing him with his shoulder in the back

 

[TEESSIDE1]

It was. Probably not a yellow though.

Last man? We only had 2 players in our half and Chiriches was the last man.

 

[Blake Griffin]

at least we're not playing 4231 anymore.

Thought I'd do a bit of weeding in the garden, which was more productive than this game so far.

The team needs weeding out as well. What a sad, depressing end to the season this is turning out to be.

 

[VoteMe4Prez]

Maybe this is just a nightmare I'm having. Need to wake up

 

[rossdapep]

Poch has to be held accountable for that. Chiriches is the definition of dweller and dier doesn't seem to be able to predict that arnautovic is going take him on the outside.

There is no point in having a big squad because none of the 'squad' players are ever ready or have enough match practice. better off having a squad of 18, with the rest being youth players.

 

[bigpalacios]

Lets get Soldado the friendly Ghost on the pitch.

 

[Chris12]

Hope Levy has Big Sam and Tony Pulis on speed dial for next season, could need a specialist.

Think we already have a specialist in playing shit football.

Wouldn't begrudge Lloris leaving this circus.

I'll drive lloris to the airport at this rate, put the man out of his misery

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Utterly hilarious if anyone believes the club when they say we want EL.

The moment it was assured we wouldn't get champions league this pathetic season has turned into more of a shambles

There is no conspiracy in this, none what so ever. A higher table position means more money, EL means more money too. They are not trying, aiming to get 8th.

 

[Indisguise]

I'm off to get myself cryonically frozen. Wake me up when we win the League.

 

[yiddo23]

Is this what the 90's was like?

 

[ilikeost]

He always does that.

I was shouting 'get rid!' because Instictively I knew he was going to try to dummy and cut back on to his right.

There is no need to take chances like that and he does it ALL the time. If you are last man and under pressure you should NEVER do that!

He is so fucking thick, it's unreal. The only position he should ever be played in is RB, playing him at LCB with another centre back out of position on his outside was a nightmare waiting to happen.

I agree with everything but the last part. He should never play for us at all, he is the worst player I've seen in a Spurs shirt in recent years. I'd rather have Hutton back.

Looking forward to when Poch is sacked mid nov after he signs all his players and we spend the next 6 months with another interim. Another manager comes in and wants his own team. Circles.

I agree but it's pointless sticking with a manager if he's the wrong guy.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

Poch needs to take a lot of the blame but how can it solely be his fault?

Name me one PL manager who would play four CB's in defence in anything other than a pratice match. Then set the team up with no pace in a 4-2-3-1 system?

He hasn't a fucking clue.

 

[yiddo23]

I don't think we can go back in time mate
