Spurs vs Chicago Fire

[SandroClegane]

the passing between lennon and soldado in the buildup was beautiful. Azza's looked a completely different player on this tour.

I agree that he has a new fire underneath him, but he isn't the answer. He just isn't

Well it doesn't look like he's going anywhere for the time being so I guess we'll have to deal with it

What's the question?

Lennon was just merely okay against Toronto and Chicago. Against Seattle, the best side we faced all tour, he was absolutely hopeless. So completely different player? No, not exactly.

Didn't watch the game so been reading a few posts on here to try and work out how the game went and a lot of people say it was a dull, boring, awful game. In what respect? Did we play bad?

Lennon has been one of our best players on this tour so stop talking rubbish. I'm not his biggest fan particularly after last season but I recognise that he's putting in a shift and rising to the occasion, same as Rose who has barely got a mention.

Time to let go of the agendas people.

I expect in the respect that it is a pre-season friendly at the end of an obvious money spinning pre-season tour where substitutions are the most exciting part of the game.

I made it as far as half-time, then gave up. Major plus points were Lamela and Capoue, but it all looked a bit shambolic, to be honest. Depends on what you expect, I guess. I wasn't expecting much.

I thought he didnt do well in this match other than a couple of moments where he looked very good, he looked lost most of the time

Rose though did very well bar one moment iirc

Capoue was the difference though but whether that was because he was good or because he offered us something that we are desperate for under poch(defensive midfielder)

I had intended to take a couple of hours kip before the match, but then the alarm failed to go off…

So most important question first, how did Grant Ward do?

From what I saw of the tour was all a bit meh, rubbish football, rubbish tempo against 3rd rate teams.

The only positive for me was Lamela looks a different man, Holtby had his moments.

Townsend, Dawson, Rose were absolute shite.

What do you expect from these tours? They're the same every year...

More hope than expectation.

Rose really wasn't, and Townsend is coming back from an injury which struck while he was coming back from an injury - cut him some slack.

Holtby always has moments, and always has moments where he isn't where he should have been, like the entire second half against Toronto, while Lamella's ability to look fantastic against rubbish teams has never been in doubt.

The actual positives from the two games I saw were Capoue and Mason.

So to sum up the tour i guess we are on a good way. You can see what Poch is about. And it is a style where we hopefully get the entertainment in our club up. And hopefully success.

I am impressed with our academy players. Mason, milos and ceballos played a fine part so i hope they can get a few pl minutes. But the squad is big and still 11 players havent even travelled to the states. We have to ship out a few.

Cant wait to start the season with a fully fit lamela.


As it stands my pl team v west ham would be:

-------------lloris------------
Walker kaboul --vertonghen- davies
---------capoue--mason------
Holtby-------lamela------eriksen
------------soldado------------

Based on what I saw, that's extremely hyperbolic. I guess these people want us to be playing like Bayern Munich in our 3rd preseason game in which many of our first choice players haven't returned from the world cup and in which we are basically utilizing our entire remaining squad.

What did he forget how to play football?

Or was he a headless chicken before he got injured.

I understand lacking fitness coming back from injury but it shouldn't effect the football brain should it?

He plays like a 7 year old and its embarrassing.

Full match anyone, full match?

Fell asleep on my bed last night and woke up around 6:30 this morning... I think I may have missed it
