Um...he's still managed to completely miscontrol the ball twice under no pressure and also goes to ground too easily. Capable of great things but can be a liability.
Yeah but he's won the ball about 5 times, set up 2 goals and put in a bunch of decent crosses. It's the best 45 minutes I've seen from a Spurs RB in a good while.

I'm under no illusions that it will last as he's always been rash and brainless which I doubt will ever change, but he's once again proven that he has all the tools to be a very good RB. Such a frustrating player.

Superb first half, now no sitting back in 2nd half - continue the momentum and score a few more.
We can really kick on from here as we have a favourable set of fixtures if we play like this

It’s the pressing. It’s back. We’ve been doing it since the start and it’s put Palace in a tizzy throughout.

Then there’s the movement up front. The finishing has been ruthless, but that’s partly because the movement has given players time and space against some rather ponderous defending.

Just saw Dier on the bench and I'd go with that instead of Wanyama. Winks is doing well and will get to start in the CL. We should focus on getting the other CM's up to speed.
I think it’d be a perfect chance to get Dier some game minutes.

That's as good a half of football as we've played since we used to murder teams in 45 minutes at the old WHL

Palace have been shit. But that is more to do with how we've been playing, palace won away at UTD, chavs and City.

Youre most probably right, we have been excellent particularly our pressing and how we pounce - that was like old Spurs

Bullshit? That winks is doing well or that we need the others CM's to get up to speed?
Bullshit to your idea of changing the team at halftime. We are 4-0 nil up for feck sake. Maybe give others a runout later in the game but not now.

Incredible performance so far and one of the best halves I've seen from us in almost a year! The best thing about it? I can still see several areas from us to improve upon. Really happy with the boys!

Kane makes a tactical foul, doesn't get booked

Incident will to get ignored by the fans and then they'll moan when Fernandinho does it. :cautious:
