the only positive to come is that Adebayor comes on and makes the difference and the penny drops with AVB in terms of how integral he is....has to get on though mind.

Closest i've come to missing Harry, watching this utter SHIT. I'm so fuming, we are that bad.

Sigurdsson and Dempsey are not Tottenham quality players, lack of movement, intelligence and they can't control the fucking ball. What we were thinking signing those two I don't know. They completely contradict our style of football.

Yes we have loads on injuries but this is shit.

AVB has got this completely wrong. A shit, slow midfield with no movement cannot play with Defoe being an only striker. Get Ade on the fucking pitch, now.

Fucking bullshit.

Its funny because we here how good team spirit is, and how great everyone is in training, but sometimes we look so disjointed. Lennon not ready siggy's pass is an example of that. I could understand those passes at the beginning, but a few months in there should be fluidity, but there is anything BUT fluidity.

It all stems from the striker and I like Defoe but he can't hold the ball and bring the rest of the team into play.
We need Ade on so we can move up the pitch an use him to link the play and bring others up to his level.

Defoe can't hold the ball up if he's not receiving it......

And toss pot AVB has not got a clue....
I agree, losing patience with AVB more and more by the day, how the fuck can he not see how dire we are/have been this season, he just wheels out the same shite each game, Dempsey was utter toss against Norwich but still starts, isn't it about time he started picking players on form ffs, I also don't like AVB attitude, as couple of times ive heard him come out and say hes happy with draws again weaker sides after the game, we shouldn't be happy drawing with Wigan WE ARE SPURS!!!

At home to Wigan we should NOT be playing 4-5-1. Adebayor and Defoe against these would be excellent, at the moment they have 3 CBs marking Defoe, the wing backs are keeping Lennon and Bale quiet and they are working hard in midfield and up top. Adebayor on would totally change the game.

We'd better come out guns a-blazin in the second half. Disappointing performance so far.

Sandro going off has created a huuuuge hole in our midfield.

Seeing us play like this makes me dread City and Arsenal away.

The problem is definitely the system.
Under Harry the 442 allowed Walker to overlap Lennon and put the cross in. He never really had to take on any defenders because Lennon took them out of the game. Now Walker has to try and beat players and doesn't have the confidence.

It's got fuck all to do with the system, or confidence, Walker doesn't have the ability to beat players.

Home days at WHL are becoming difficult days. Struggling to break teams down, crowd getting anxious, booing, quiet. Only one first half goal in all competitions at home this season probably explains alot!
