Match Threads Southampton vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 2

[tobi]

I understand why Kane is conserving his energy but its putting more pressure on the others.

Dier or Sanchez needs to be subbed, not taking command at all.

 

[nferno]

This shouldn’t be happening. We shouldn’t be getting outplayed and outmuscled and just completely done over by bloody Southampton.

 

[Gassin's finest]

Dier and Sanchez is a disastrous pairing...

TBF, and I appreciate this is an unpopular opinion, but Dier with anyone is a bad pairing. I know Jose loves his attitude and aggression, but he's just not canny enough for me.

Get Gio On, winks offering nothing

 

[spids]

We're too predictable always looking long. We need triangles to pass in midfield and more pressure on the ball. Ndombele, Hojbjerg and Winks all not doing themselves any favours

 

[mmidgers]

This style of football does not suit the players on the pitch. We need to be more proactive and less reactive

 

[Matrix]

Dier, Winks, Moura, PEH pretty piss poor.

 

[kent brockman]

Fucking Dier. Why not jump and head it?!?!

Same thing for Everton’s goal last weekend.

 

[RickyVilla]

Painful

 

[Ghost Hardware]

I must say I'm not particularly impressed by our new signings. That being said, everyone is playing badly really.

... #PochBack?

 

[Shadydan]

I'm shaking my head at this shit.

 

[Romulus]

Anybody noticed that ball over the top always works against dier and sanchez?

 

[JayB]

Dier is a bit shit I'm afraid

 

[Teemu]

We are genuine relegation candidates if we continue to play like this.

 

[yankspurs]

Dier and Winks are going to become serious problems for us if they keep starting

They are already

 

[Pistols At Dawn]

Why do we still have Dier on our team? Remind me?

 

[Goofster]

If we're gonna let em have the ball with no pressing we need to be more comfortable defending against their through balls, it's dangerous every time more or less. Personally don't see this low block defending working for us, we need to have more intensity.

 

[Hawk_Spur]

Zero attempts.

 

[walton]

Fuck me, it’s like we’ve brought in Defoe as our offside coach
