Video: Pochettino’s reaction to fans booing his decision

[cliff jones]

an exclamation of Huh?

certainly not a boo. barely even an audible groan.

Boo.

 

[theShiznit]

nope, no fails. There was loud booing quickly followed by concerted applause for Moura's efforts all around me. And then encouragement for the sub. I won't ever believe there was a block apart with no boo's so I think you should just give up trying to convince me. And back to my original point, which is whether 40 thousand or 4 thousand did, fans who part with their hard-earned have the right to boo. And if you or the original poster want to boo the boo-ers, or spend a day contesting how many booed, you go ahead champ. Epic!

Well you've dropped the unanimous so that's progress.

You're trying to weasel out of your position and you know that. It's rather enjoyable in the same way as a cat enjoys playing with its prey.
You said it was unanimous, but now you're saying the numbers don't matter.
The fans can boo if they want, but it's not stated on the ticket as a requirement when parting with their money, however easily it was earned. Furthermore, given that I also bought a ticket (actually, four) I can also boo them, but that would be stupid. I just happened to think that they were ill-informed and that it was counterproductive to supporting our team.
I'm still waiting for your to disavow your claim that I made my claim from my sofa. Were you at the match?

I've read a few opinions lately that people think Kane looks less involved when Moura is on.

Kane did score 2 goals after the man of the match was taken off.
I was stunned it wasn't Son coming off tbh.

I was there and wasn't surprised. Moura made some greats runs, gave everything but it produced nothing in the end. I think he gave his all and it was clearly time we too a different approach. Son by this time was starting to use his pace more and get into the game, he looked to have more energy left than Lucas.

It is a team game and it was good to see that Poch made some changes but at the time we were all frustrated by the lack of end product. The changes ultimately did work and Kane suddenly had some space in the areas where he hurts teams the most.

 

[slartibartfast]

My reaction was, yep I can see why.
All huffing and puffing but never looking like anything would come from it is why he was subbed.
I actually blame Poch a little bit because, as I've said in other threads, Moura, Eriksen, Alli, Lamela, Son, as good as they are, they are not as clinical or as deadly as Kane in front of goal. They should be doing all they can to get the ball to Kane and Kane should be doing all he can to get in and around the box. Not running around like a headless chicken in midfield trying to thread balls through for others to take chances and miss.
We have one of the most deadly strikers in the world that would go for 150m+. Lets get back to fkin using him like one shall we?

Kane plays much deeper when Moura is on the pitch, as he plays more up front. Personally, I am of the view that we should be playing the world's best number 9 as a number 9.

I said it was unanimous because it was around me, and it felt like it was stadium-wide (well, the blocks that were populated). Although I might have seen an old boy to my right who was speechless and a young kid to my left who just looked sad. But even you get the drift. I can't know how many joined in in the same way you can't. Neither is it worth our time guessing. I was at the front of 544, for what it's worth.

Our fundamental difference appears to be you too want to tell other fans how to react- booing is stupid etc.. I didn't boo, but neither am I patronising of those who choose to do so. And I come here for the banter, and the differences in opinion, not to tell others they're right or wrong. In your case five or six times- or is it three or four- count and quote away if it makes you happy.

Your tone also suggests you think you're of higher intellect. But the weasels and cats don't really cut it.

I was in 525.
This isn't about intellect, it was about you making assertions that didn't stand up to scrutiny. It's up to people if they want to boo a decision, and I do happen to think some of our fans are tossers. One of my friends was perplexed at the decision, but he didn't boo and nor did people around us. I told him I understood the decision, especially as I'd been saying beforehand that the team doesn't know what Moura is going to do and so don't take up positions that hurt the opposition. Kane in particular played better when Lamela came on.

I accept you and any others saying there was less booing where you were but can't get my head round how there could have been none at all in your section- that's just too random for logic given the din. Every team has a lot of tossers, but for me the biggest tossers are those who aren't bothering- as opposed to those who come along to sit there and moan or boo.

Talking of randomness, Moura's has seen him deservedly hooked on many occasions this season but the other night he was tearing them apart. You may disagree with that, and with my view that Alli is our major conductor of openings particularly for Kane. But we need to a certain extent keep the opposition guessing. The endless square passing and probing needs to be punctuated every now and then by a surprise.

Moura was indeed tearing their defence apart, but what was evident was that the rest of the team and in particular Kane weren't clicking with him. He was steadily getting worn out, which wasn't helping him produce an end product. As Poch said, 2-1.

I was in block 133 behind the goal we were attacking in the 2nd half.
Son was useless all game and came off shortly after Lucas.
