Match Threads Leicester vs Spurs - Match Thread

Damn ITKs have the knives out for Poch eh. Not looking good.

I don’t get the criticism of the midfield 3 over lack of creativity. Liverpool play 3 solid central midfielders and both create and score a shed load of goals. Son and Kane - 2 outstanding players, Lamela presses and has had a very good start to the season. Then as per Liverpool albeit one game Rose and Aurier were excellent against Palace. Plus we’ve been crying out for more protection in the middle and that’s come at the expense of Eriksen whom was a disgrace during the week.

Liverpool have the best attacking full backs in the league who get more assists than most teams midfielders. They play with an intensity and tempo that we can't match, in a system that suits them and which they know like the back of their hand.

Another fucking formation change. Poch is really getting on my nerves this season with his constant tinkering. Believe me when I say I'm not the only one who hates it.

Is it also the players who hate it or more boardroom level?

Yeah - you cannot compare that.

And that's why we're shit when playing with 3 CMS. We're not Liverpool, not even close. We need creative players.

Jesus I'm blind today

Isn't that supposed to be "Jesus! I can see! I can see! It's a miracle!"?

What have the ITKs been saying then?

 

[degoose]

This going to be entertaining.

Press conferences
Subs bench
Diamonds
Eriksen
No Parrott
BT
The timing of subs
“This one’s on”
Sanchez
Formations
Not subbing Kane in the 89th minute when we’re 3-0 up
Who can pass forwards and who can’t
Pundits
Commentators

And probably a shitload of other complaints once the game actually starts

Get your tickets now!

Me doing this to the thread when the game kicks off.

Thank god Eriksen’s been dropped.

Just constant alluding to squad discontent. Also entertaining the thought of him getting the sack if poor form continues.

People come out with this stuff pretty regularly and it's pretty much always a silly soundbite, a yatta yatta thing that a few people actually believe for some strange reason..........Last season on Blue Moon (or whatever its called) before Man City lost at Leicester........

Honestly, its the kind of thing that should never be said by anyone with an ounce of sense, it should result in the perp having red hot pokers rammed forcefully up their botty holes.
Obviously, the City fan is an idiot because still, after all that he didn't learn his lesson.........

Pass the red hot pokers. He soon will be.

I'll leave it to you to decide wether or not it's you, the City fan or both of you that's mistaken

Yeah I’m happy enough with the team. Son and Kane starting together is good news.

Your last paragraph made me laugh. My mum used to exile my dad to the car when I was a kid and Tottenham was on the TV because he used to get so emotional. It was like living with someone with intense multiple personality disorder that flared up once or twice a month and lasted about 90 minutes

Needs to get his priorities right if you ask me.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

People cry for Eriksen to be dropped, then moan that we change the system because we don't have another no10

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Seems like everyone is against us at the moment. Fucking shut the pundits up today please

Given how Leicester tore us apart in midfield at Wembley I'm not surprised if we go 3 in midfield. I think I'd prefer a 2 with 1 in front rather than a double pivot though. Give Ndombele freedom to drive into those central areas and thread balls through to the front 3.

Sissoko----Sissoko
Ndombele
Lamela--------Son
Kane​

Sissoko got his twin playing
