Match Threads West Ham vs Spurs

[VoteMe4Prez]

There is quite clearly a very clear plan, the issue is some of our players are not world class so don’t product quality top top performances every week therefore we don’t win and dominate every game like fans are seemingly demanding.

The progress and transformation this season from a defensive completely negative mess under Conte, especially having also lost Kane this summer is very impressive.

It is. Just wish we still had Kane. We really would be challenging this season if he stuck around

 

[ItsBoris]

We’d have been challenging for the title, let alone confirmed 4th, if we’d have taken the financial hit and kept Kane.

Now Bayern can’t win the league perhaps they’ll loan him for the run in..

Yep, that's why I'm saying we should just get him back. I'm sure he regrets it now, and even if Bayern win the bundesliga next year which isn't guaranteed with Alonso staying, who really even cares?

 

[Jay.]

Sorry but anyone saying 1-1 to this lot isn’t a bad result is exactly why we never win anything. Anything but a win is a poor result against the likes of WHam.

 

[UbeAstard]

Don’t blame Kulusevski. I thought, that Son and Porro werd the poorest Players tonight.

So whether you thought Son and Porro were poor, you still think Kulu should be off the hook with that?

 

[Tonio]

I do not want an apology from Son, nor a love letter from Kulu. I just want them to fucking win against our fucking shit neighbours. Do the fucking talking on the pitch and stop talking shit. Tonight is a shit night. The fuckers took 4 points from us this season. Simply not good enough. I’m fucking fuming.

You are absolutely spot on.. They should have left nothing out there tonight and all come off with their heads held high. There is not a fan amongst us that can say that's what they did without purposely trolling.

When all is said and done, how did Paqueta escape getting a booking?!?

 

[SA_Spurs]

Yeah probably a fair result overall and a decent enough point to be honest. We are far from the finished article, think we'll finish 5th, Villa just a bit more consistent. Our defending from corners needs addressing pronto though.

there are some very worrying signs. Vic (bless his heart) still stands directly behind opposition players - he did it even after they scored their goal. What the fuck has this team learned from earlier in the season? We showed more application & desire when we had half our team out injured and that's infuriating as hell!

 

[Hazelton]

When is their parade?

refs in UK are the worse and most corrupt in world football - simple

Ange has real problems here, we've gone backwards in the last 3 months, which is in direct contravention to his mantra of developing and progressing being the most important thing. He needs a variant of his style to employ.

We’ve not ‘gone backwards’ we’ve only just finally got all of our best players back and match fit.

We had Bissouma, Sarr and Son away until start of Feb only a month and a half ago!

It’s all part of the journey.

Progression doesn’t often look like a straight line up, there are ups and downs along the way, roll with it, wait until we have signed more players this summer and we will be even better and more consistent next season.

It’s also a very young new team so they need time to all adapt.

You can start to see why Juventus basically gave him away

So many comedians on tonight, really not sure if some are on the wind up or are genuinely being serious?

 

[Sp3akerboxxx]

He's been reluctant to shoot from outside the box all season which is really frustrating considering he's like the best in the world at doing that.

It's clearly instructions.

Pretty much no one in our team is taking shots from outside the box this season

 

[Gilzean at the near post]

I think we played well today without being able to create too many clear cut chances. Great to see Bentancur back and I felt he played well. I also felt Maddison was constantly probing and given we needed to score, I was disappointed he was taken off. I thought the West Ham front three were a constant menace which we struggled to handle at times. Udogie was outstanding and a pity he didn't put away the chance near the end that would have topped it off

 

[ultimateloner]

I didn't watch the game but just looking at this result, i'm surprised with the negativity.
I wouldn't be surprised if we had lost let alone draw away to West Ham. We always do badly against them, and also against a low-block team.

 

[Joely]

Generally felt like we ran out of ideas when we approached the final third and there was no real conviction in what we were doing. Almost as though just hoping something would come off for us. Feels like teams work on nullifying our full backs and know our wide forwards are more 'off the ball' type attackers and not the type that are consistently going to pose a threat with the ball at feet.

I'm also unconvinced Son has the all round game to play up top and so can blow hot and cold in terms of all round performance in games. However his excellent goal getting ability masks the flaws in his all round game imo. At the very least think there needs to be an alternative to him......Richy has done well this season but again not sure he is the answer long term.

Come the summer, think we really need to have a serious think about the make up of our forward line. We have some good players there but I'm just not sure we have enough that can make that difference/give us that cutting edge.

 

[spurs mental]

That second half made my eyes bleed.

 

[Impspur1]

Was a little underwhelmed with Ange.... Still has a lot to learn when it comes to influencing the game with substitutions! Not sure Son should not have played 90mins.... Richy should have been on earlier...

I don’t think anyone believes we are anywhere near the finished article and Ange has repeatedly said this too.

Well to be fair, either they're corrupt and know exactly what they're doing, or they're clueless and don't. If they were both at the same time, we might actually get some good decisions

 

[SixtyFour]

He certainly is not, hes just overated.

Not as scapegoat of the moment. He’s bang on form there…

Brennan Johnson speaks very well
