Match Threads Spurs vs Manchester United - Match Thread - Day 30

[Tweddled]

I’m sure we’ll all be shit at our jobs after 3 months of sitting on the sofa. We didn’t lose the game and should’ve won bar a soft penalty.

Sure there’s loads of improvements to make but at least football is back

Good first half but not great 2nd half. Just let them come at us. I didn't think it was a pen but we didn't look solid enough at the back or threatening enough on the counter.

 

[dirtyh]

nice to see after all that time away not one single thing has changed. we still can't see out games and the prem officials are still as dodgy as a 9 bob note.

 

[DJS]

Not into those tactics, Utd were there for the taking and why leave Kane on when the guy is fucked

Because we always do.

 

[glacierSpurs]

Patience dear boy. It's one game in after months of no playing and before that we had a hangover from Poch, which was pretty plain to see. I'm not going to start moaning at this stage.

Really love your optimism. But almost a full strength team to choose from and two, three weeks of like a pre-season but some guys are still lacking in movement and spirit..

 

[mark87]

Frustrating when you're leading the game for so long. But the second half wasn't good enough.

 

[Blackrat1299]

Why didn't we play Ndombele ?

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Decent result, happy with a point.

People are forgetting pre lockdown:

Utd in the form of their lives
Spurs in their worst form for years and the squad was injury ravaged.

Now, we’ve got players back but some of them haven’t played for 6 months and/or have had serious injuries (Kane, Sissoko, Bergwijn, Son). Plus we were missing Tanganga, Alli and Moura, 3 players whom would of featured in some capacity.

Other than Southampton no one has got out of 1st gear so far.

W Ham will be the test to see if we’ve improved and how far we can go this season.

 

[dbspurs]

Couldn't see them scoring. Think we gifted them a point For all their possession how many clear cut chances did they have.

 

[spursfan77]

Soft penalty, but poor from us really.
cant say we deserved anything more than a draw and I’m concerned at our lack of control. Counter is one thing, but we seem to eager to surrender the ball and be out pressed.

I just don’t understand why.

 

[handsomecake]

Not signing strikers because they won't displace kane is a load of tosh by the way. That argument is a load of pony.

He has toffee ankles and looks like the zest is gone.

 

[stov]

Done with mourinho spurs, what an epic mistake that was.

 

[razzmaster]

Mourinho had 3 months to sort things out but just did the same shit yet again with the exact same outcome

 

[Col_M]

I missed the last 10mins of the game because I was so Incensed about that stupid comment.

 

[C0YS]

Honestly, I get why that penalty wasn't overturned. But it was nothing, most of the time those ones aren't given. Again, if no penalty was given it wouldn't have been overturned. We've had plenty not given for the same kind of crap. Dier doesn't even pull him down. Soft.

A very mourinho performance, lots of positives for sure, even though 5th might be beyond us. If we could defend like that every game we wouldn't be in this situation. It feels like a loss though, another day, same game we would have had this,

 

[mckenz]

Kane never seems to be fit now.

Fuck Dier for being so stupid.

Things just never changed.

to be fair thats his first game back since January. Not exactly surprising really

 

[hughy]

Worst thing about tonight was the confirmation that, if we didn't know already, United are miles better than us. No way are we finishing above them this season.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

I hate this style of football. So very much. Completely out played this half.

We’re not technically good or clinical enough to play the way Mourinho likes to play

 

[JCRD]

Best part about that game was Roy Keane

 

[Dirtysanchez6]

He was playing so well until then

Did we really lol
