Match Threads Brentford vs Spurs

[adamsky]

Fairly encouraging, definitely more enjoyable than most games last season. Hopefully there is a further £100-£150m to be spent on this squad too

Skipp had repellent on his boots today, some dodgy touches, big dav the same.

Id like to see Lo Celso on for skipp and Solomon on for Kulu mabye also put son up top and richy off and Perisic on at LW those changes throughout the 2nd half where needed.

Agree on Skipp. Thought Dav held himself well all things considered.

 

[Misfit]

Not great, not terrible. Things to work on, signs of promise.

Not bad.

 

[Scot-Spur]

Dare I say Sanchez looks much better when he’s not playing with Dier.

He does, I still don’t like watching him receive the ball under pressure though.

 

[wrd]

Sorry people won't like this but I miss Kane

Yeah there was a couple of chances that highlighted what we are going to lack now, still, you'd rather the coffers are secure

 

[RichYid]

Impressed with the performance especially second half. Sanchez looked good and new signings all played well notably van de ven and udogie. Lord knows why bissouma didn’t get more game time last season. Not convinced current front three work. Think right winger and back up / competition striker minimum. Coys

Yeah, I feel that Kulu and particularly Son look a little lost in this system, son barely involved. Might be because Brentford defended very well. Good result considering how well Brentford do at home. Overall I feel we deserved the win though.

I didn’t really notice it with Son, but they always had one really tight on Kulu, doubled up on him quite a lot as well. Obviously wary of him after his first against them at the end of last season.

What match did you watch?

Constructive stuff, good talk cheers

 

[neogenisis]

Anyway, TO THE TRANSFER FORUM!

Thought the inexperienced left hand side of defence played the exact opposite of inexperienced. Both absolutely fantastic.

 

[Finchyid]

A lot of promising football. My big concern is the GK. This guy looks like a joke. Eveything was laced with anxiety. Its like we've respawned a young Hugo on his worst days.

I actually thought he was decent.

 

[Hazelton]

Son isn't a winger.

 

[Danfunkel]

Wasn’t bad was it?

Vicario a little wobbly, but that’s to be expected. Biss, Destiny and Madders were superb. Abit more work to do, but that was encouraging.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Also, I’m trying to keep myself in check but the last two games have really given me second thoughts about Sanchez. He should probably still go, but still he’s done well.

That’s what you got out of that game seriously. Son and Kulu looked ineffective, Skipp was largely anonymous, Emerson caught out for goal and sitter and the goalkeeper was the weak link.

Bissouma, Udogie, Maddison looked class and VDV and Sanchez were solid.

Ran out of steam and perhaps Ange could have used his bench a bit more.

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

I’m not a big Hojberg fan but I think he’s levels above Skipp who was pretty irrelevant today.

Skipp was irrelevant today. Sarr much more dynamic

 

[Romulus]

This system REQUIRES the wide forwards to be direct and attack. Currently Solomon and Perisic do it better than Son and Kulusevski

 

[WiganSpur]

Son isn't a winger.

His pace has well and truly gone unfortunately. He's needs to play as a poacher now.

 

[Scot-Spur]

No…Richy worked really hard didn’t get a lot of the ball. If anything Sonny and kulu should get more stick

He worked hard… that’s it. I’m sorry but his movement when we have the ball is rather poor.

 

[DiamondLites]

I think we need to move the ball a bit quicker especially in transition, but encouraging signs.

This was my biggest takeaway and frustration from today, compared to the preseason (i know) the ball was moving much slower and too much of the old check back and pass it safe. I get the added pressure of playing an actual game, I hope this is something we will see improve for the next game
