Match Threads Bournemouth Vs Spurs

[tommo84]

Right now my worry is that, based on his previous appointments, even if/when Conte goes Levy will try to replace him with another manager terrified of playing attacking football, only without the impressive CV and ability to attract players.

I never post in the match thread because of the hyperbole that tends to be created

but this is truly shocking today Bournemouth? seriously ? why is it we constantly give teams a lead and something to defend especially when that's what we are meant to do!

 

[13VanDerBale13]

If Conte makes no subs at half time, I don’t want to hear anymore excuses for him.

 

[mil1lion]

The irony when people cry out for control of midfield and we have shown we simply don't have the quality for this much of the ball. It has to be 343 so we at least have more attacking options.

 

[nedley]

Kulusevski is out. Richarlison is out. Lucas is not fit. Bryan will come on in the 2nd half - he would not last a full game.

So reactive instead of proactive.

 

[Flitwick]

I think Sanchez almost passed forward just then...but he remembered Conte's wise words and passed it sideways.
But for a moment, the briefest of moments, he almost.......

 

[JCRD]

Ok so we got into some great positions but our final ball is atrocious with Kane being the only one who has shown his quality.

The system frees up our wing backs but theyve been utter shite. How can you then expect aSkipp to effectively be the cross, he isnt a damn winger. Id like to see Spence given how much space we are having. Bournemouth know this so they let us have the ball with our wing backs knowing they cant cross for toffee. Its too easy to defend that

I would pretty much put Gil on for Sess and Spence on for Emerson.

Another game where instead of 90 we have 45 mins.

If we don't get an attacking change at HT then Conte has truly lost the plot.

 

[amathews3416]

Skipp and Son were good, everyone else if I speak I am in big trouble.

Skipp was good? Granted, he is being asked to play a role that doesn’t really suit him but his final ball has been awful.

 

[muppetman]

More than anything else, we are just a dull team to watch. Everything is so slow and laboured.

 

[murichej]

Bring Gill and Lucas and go with 4-2-3-1
Only instruction for front 4: move
Only instruction for back 6: defend

 

[Fredo]

Bring on Gil probably will do something

 

[Hotspur33]

Bissouma looks not even half the player he was at Brighton. He’s so good and we’re making him look so average.

he should be the more advanced of the midfielders. Not because he is creative, but because he can win the ball high up and then at least give Kane or Son a chance

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

The players we all know are shit, are definitely shit.

 

[glacierSpurs]

Gil crosses with his left on the right, the balls will be threatening. Sess crossing with his left on the left, like how Royal crossing with his right on the right have no whip. It's an achievement to even get pass the first man.

 

[richard_gleeson]

I haven't watched a game since we got destroyed by man utd. Just can't be bothered to watch them.

 

[dannyo]

Absolutely unacceptable defensive performance from Davies and Sanchez. When you create fuck all you can’t keep going behind through such poor defending. And Sessegnon has been far far worse than than the much derided Royal.

So fucked off we’ve put ourselves in this position through lack of sensible rotation and awful first half performances in previous games. Even now this is well salvageable but I don’t trust he’ll make any changes to affect the result. Here’s hoping though

 

[Cavehillspur]

I love Skipp but he cannot play this inside RW position.

Yep, couldn't cross his legs on this showing, out of position in fairness though.

 

[Frank Blank]

I can’t stand Davies anymore

Davies is like the NHS in here, simply beyond criticism.

 

[wrd]

This is abysmal, I'll have some big concerns if we aren't making changes at half time because I'm not sure what evidence can support continuing with this set up.
