West Ham Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[Hoddtastic72]

I'll just hang out at Arsenal Forum the rest of the night. No better medicine for our pathetic loss tonight.

They will probably do the same with us

 

[vdv]

Fuck this pikey ****. Worst we played all season.

 

[thinktank]

Can we giv this little meme a fucking rest.

The very real chance that they can make Champions League is all the incentive they need.

Stop confusing the team with the fans.

So you think the fans didn't spur them on to that result tonight??? You're delusional, son.

Cheer up we have not lost two in a row all season! Poch will get the lads back and bouncing for Saturday. They know tonight was a missed opportunity and have to put it right Saturday lunchtime. One defeat which included a shambolic refereeing performance does not mean we won't or can't win the title. We can't play superb and win every game. Not even Barca do that! Rather lost tonight than Arsenal. Not ideal, but by no means the end of the world.

 

[spursfan77]

Couldn't agree more. We're still in there.

100% and we will still be in there even if the worst happens and we lose to Arsenal on Saturday.

I am worried about Kane though we don't seem to be playing through him enough. Unfortunately I think it's all catching up with him.

You carry on thinking that the fight we showed tonight is acceptable because it's only our first defeat in 7. If anything, the last 6, where we have been so dominant and fought from behind on occasion should be even more proof as to why today was so unacceptable. You can label me kneejerk all you like, I've just sat through 90 minutes of the worst performance of the season against a team every single man and his dog knew would be up for it against us and we've created absolutely nothing, barely stringing two passes together.

We've been lucky with other teams results so we can only hope our boys are more up for it on Saturday.

I didn't say its acceptable did I? My disappointment just doesn't translate into a bollocks generalisation about our away form and in the cold light of day, you'll know it too. No i'm not happy, yes we were poor, but shit happens, what are we going to do about it? Does talking horseshit somehow make it better?

I'll say it again. When the mist has cleared you'll realise what you said is wrong. Seperate tonight from the rest of the season, it (tonight) shouldn't be and isn't a reflection on our away form this season which up until tonight has been nothing short of excellent. Your comment was wrong, unreasonable and unwarranted.

Arsenal still have to visit West Ham , so lets hope they put as much effort into that one

Leicester have them at home too. Pretty sure given West Ham's proximity to a Europa Spot, let alone a Champions League spot, they'll be doing their best to win those too.

 

[minimike]

Mason was non existent, Chadli was awful, Kane put no effort in. Probably our worst performance this season. This is the only game where we haven't deserved anything. However, onwards and upwards, we're still in this, it's not over COYS

 

[kr1978]

Surprisingly balanced response in here in general, was waiting for some proper toys out the pram meltdowns.

 

[TallBlokePH]

We just can't lose by 6. Silver linings!

Hadn't even considered that - not that I think anything like that will happen even if we do drop a bollock on Saturday! That's actually cheered me up a bit remembering just how good our GD is this season. Have we still only lost by 1 at most this campaign?

give over, Spurs have only lost 4 games all season... congested fixture list with kane, eriksen, and dier looking dead on their feet from the beginning today... regroup for gooner game, get dembele out there, and with a win or draw Spurs in a great position to run it...

COYS!!!

 

[Wellspurs]

West ham away is a much harder game than West Brom at home.

Or Swansea at home?

 

[spursboy2008]

Awful display!.

 

[oskathegobshite]

...?

Don't we need three point before our GD becomes useful?

Ignore me. Fucking Carol Vorderman over here.

 

[theShiznit]

Horrid performance. Blame the pitch and move on.

No point dwelling on that shit when there's still so much to play for.

Arsenal becomes (even more) massive now.

Will be a very interesting game, to see how both teams bounce back.

I imagine the crowd at the Semirates was extremely toxic tonight.

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

West Ham 'mate' of mine, at the game, said Eriksen was coined. Just sent me abuse.

No idea of that's true, didn't see it on the coverage.

Oh they'll come, just wait

 

[Gambler]

Always gonna be hard when they score so early and don't want to lose.

Either way all the other results went our way so nothing changes but we are a game closer to the title which we WILL win.

Not playing like that we won't!

 

[Grapo2001]

Still can't work out how we weren't up for a game of such importance and against a local team. Disappointed.

 

[Gbspurs]

I know Kane is our striker but I don't think he is the issue. Aside from him the only other players to have shots in this game were Davies and Toby. Where were Lamela/Eriksen/Chadli/Son/Alli/Mason?

If the above weren't shooting what else weren't they doing? Playing through balls to the forward? Dangerous crosses.

For your forward to play well you need the attacking players behind him to turn up and contribute unless you have a Bale/Suarez in your side.

Really If we had done our job and signed another Forward that can lead the line then Kane and his broken face could have rested up ready to fight another day.

Instead he has just spent 90 mins getting bullied by West Ham less than 3 days before a title match against our biggest rivals. Great.
