Lloris is coming.

Lloris is backpedaling.

No, wait-he's coming again.

Now that's what I call sweeping.

I was worried when I saw him holding his hip earlier in the game. Hope it was just a minor knock and doesn't affect his play.

Especially for next weekend.

76.6% possession accord to the Beeb. That sound right?

 

[yiddopaul]

love it that you’re seeing it as easy

Didn’t say it was going to be easy. Read what I said. I can easily see it being 3-2. There’s a difference.

 

[Dzejkob]

No, he was making an honest attempt to get the ball, would've still been a yellow.

That can't be excuse if you have straight leg one feet above ground.

Lamela hasn't been good but he's always working hard for the team. At least he still does that when he's having an off day which is appreciated.

Running around chicken-headedly isn't helping the team.

 

[Blue]

I got a feeling we might see a red card in that second half.

has trippier really been bad? i think he's handled sane well for the most part.

If only Lamela had a right foot.

And some pace

His passing has been very disappointing at times.

No I don't think he's been bad either. Lazily getting the blame for collective team issues I think.

That is when the decision is in the box. Outside of the box, its a foul on an obvious goal scoring opportunity. Straight red. That part of the rule was not changed.

I think City will start to tire in the second half. Time for the fresh legs and pace of Sonny.

the better position spurs are in the kess likely lamela is to release the ball to a team mate

Definitely need to invest in a new keeper next season and pay Toby what he wants.

Apparently we offered Toby what he wanted, but he didn't accept it.

 

[Vulcan10]

That Davies tackle was a stinker. Very lucky boy to still be on the pitch.

Would have missed the cup semi & there's no cover with rose injured. Phew.

 

[paulcumpstone]

And tiger, Hugo lucky he wasn't sent off

Too me, he looks more nervous and impulsive and it's affecting his game

for me if he doesn't give it as a pen he sends him off

Well, he did.

But then he asked for more.
