Tottenham Vs Leicester: FA Cup Match Thread

[ackie]

We ALL can see we need another striker!
We play good football for 45minutes and then fizzle.

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

Lloris starts in the replay.

Vorm is the wankiest goalkeeper we have had in a long time.

Lol what a idiotic comment. He did nothing wrong in this match.

 

[jonathanhotspur]

Too many times we lack zip and get a bit comfortable in our play against teams that sit back, too static, just now 3 in the box standing still.

Awful off-the-ball movement on numerous occasions.

 

[Sweech]

Nothings a penalty anymore according to commentators.

Unless it's against Liverpool or Man United.

 

[thinktank]

What I got from that game was that we still can't cut open a team that comes to defend and play on the break, very frustrating! I honestly don't fancy our chances Wednesday, we looked vulnerable when they did break and that's without Vardy and Market, I think Poch needs to get us back to defending as a unit all over the pitch, we seem to have slumped lately in that respect.

Think we'll be much stronger in recovery on Wednesday.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

solution to 3. --> Let Trippier take them.

He's not usually in the team?

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Lol what a idiotic comment. He dud nothing wrong in this match.

The irony of calling me idiotic. Lol

 

[spursfan77]

its annoying how he hasn't seen this yet, i think we are all gonna be disappointed again this window.

I'd be amazed if we buy another striker. Leicester have 5 on their books, we have one. It's just crazy.

Surprised pundits didn't like the penalty decision, he was looking at the ball and flicked his hand to knock it away and if there are any more doubt just look at Dyer's reaction, he knew he was guilty, written all over his face; "what me guv"?

 

[Goldman]

What was up with the coverage? More replays and zoom in angles of players and managers then actual football

 

[paulcumpstone]

Certainly wasnt ball to hand.these pundits are dipshits.

 

[Dinghy]

Handball DOES NOT have to be deliberate, that is complete Bs. The BBC does hire some right clowns

Turned those chuckle-heads off. Shittest panel in the history of shit panels.

 

[Grapo2001]

Vorm, Wimmer, chadli and Son worry me

This has a ridiculous amount of neg reps, but apart from Wimmer it was the accurate call.

Vorm panics too much which can't be good for the back four.

Chadli hogged the ball and shot when there was no chance.

Son is not a striker and looked lost all game.

 

[L-man]

Surely no penalty should have been given in the history of football if intent is the deciding factor to whether it's a penalty or not? No player makes the deliberate decision to handle the ball

Maybe one actually. Suarez in the 2010 World Cup

 

[TropicalYid]

This game shows everyone we need to buy a striker.

 

[Bulletspur]

According to some he's our best corner taker...

Yeah, I remember one idiot was trying to convince us. Even saying that "ball to the near post" was intentional and part of Poch's plan!

 

[paulcumpstone]

We are crap when teams defend deep and narrow as we have little natural width and so many players that are poor at crossing the ball.

 

[shelfmonkey]

Think we'll be much stronger in recovery on Wednesday.

Hope you're right.

 

[spursfan77]

Just a comment having only read the last two pages... What did Bentaleb do wrong!? Committed a couple of professional fouls to stop counter attacks and took a booking. Big deal.

Overall very annoying to only draw that (with a little fortune to even get a draw at the end). Two soft goals conceded when we had gone 1-0 up early on and enjoyed the vast majority of possession. Really did make it hard for ourselves and now a replay to add on to the fixture list.

I think bentaleb should have started. Dier needs rotating.
