fucking sissoko. one track pony without a track nor a pony.

based on the rating let me clarify - watching this game ( and many others ) sissoko has only one option when he gets the ball. run and use strength but get pushed around to either an angle when he cant strike on goal or uses pure power in the wrong situations. Just see the run he made 30 seconds ago. He has no nuance, he has no peripheral vision and perspective of the pitch and how to use his fellow team mates.


Are you fucking high? He was one of our better players in that last 30! Relieved a lot of pressure with his ball carrying

Forth will take the blame for the 2 pens but he was let down twice by teammates. Trippier in particular. A shame as I thought Foyth was playing well until we imploded.

For we only know that there's gonna be a show and that Tottenham Hotspur will be there...

It just wouldn't be us to make a habit of seeing games out at 3-0 would it now :D

Thank fuck that's over. Considering our injuries a win is a great result away against Wolves. But the way this match unfolded must be a part of a learning curve.

Foyth was class despite the two penalties. I know that sounds silly but he was.

Agree. I’d place the blame on trippier for the first goal. And that incident (giving away the first penalty) seemed to have rattled him (Foyth) for the rest of the game.

Best start for us in the Prem, haven't even got out of first gear yet, no home games, riddled with injuries... Not too shabby. COYS!

We should be sending the lino a fruit basket in the morning. He won the game for us in the first half.

I actually think we deserved to win because they were really feckin' good tonight and we've had a lot to deal with recently.

A classic spurs game that but,

Hugo superb, Lamela, Moura and Son all great.

Eriksen was pointless coming on, we might as well have just said alright ref, 10 men from here. Foyth, has been showing huge potential I was wondering how on earth he hasn't had any games well we saw why a bit tonight, still a promising performance despite the penalty situations.

Trippier though, I'm fucked off with, it wasn't the pathetic attempt at the nut meg that annoyed me most, it was the way he let his runner in behind him who missed a sitter but Trippiers reaction and the way he screamed at Foyth was nothing short of pathetic. People were complaining about sons reaction to being subbed yet not seen them call out the shambles that was trippiers reaction. We have no place for that kind of shit in our team especially to a young player who's stepping in during an injury crisis.

Easy, easy, easy...

At some point this season we're going to have to stop switching off and moving onto the next game before we've made sure.

We keep trying to coast while not controlling the game in the slightest. Recipe for disaster, and I'm not sure why we've started doing it.

Fair play to Wolves. Great addition to the PL, and they're only going to improve.
