Match Threads Spurs vs Palace

[rabbikeane]

If Werner could finish he'd be Germany's super star, his runs are so lethal, finishing not so much

 

[Goobers]

This is what being a team in transition feels like so often. Lots of good intentions and ideas but without the will or execution.

 

[JoaoPereira]

Also, as much as I love a redemption ark and I want Werner to come good, I feel he’s not affected the game very much in this first half. Having said that I did miss the first 15, so perhaps he did some good stuff then?

he's a classic 'You get what you pay for' kind of asset. there's a reason his price tag is as low as it is.

regardless, bigger issues than his production at the moment.

Someone has got to be able to beat a man to create openings in games like these. Bit of space found by Werner but you have to eliminate opposing players either via a dribble or quick forward passing.

madison was doing that before his injury but never really got back to the same level

 

[midoshairband]

nothing up top.

 

[spursville]

wish we had a fwd that joined and looked like he knew what he was doing from day one, werner is trash

I think centre forward may be the bigger issue unless Richarlison's streak continues. We have options for where Werner is playing today and a few goals may be all it takes for Werner to get his confidence back. I'd be tempted in this game to get the front three to keep rotating.

 

[robotsonic]

All gone a bit flat now, both in the stadium and with the tempo

 

[StevePil]

just really slow, boring again.... what has gone wrong?

 

[whitechina]

Gawd this is boring

 

[SDogg]

Feels like it’s gonna be another one of those days doesn’t it

 

[Goobers]

Serious question against this low block is there anything to lose playing Sarr as right back

 

[Fidget]

Seems we lost our mojo ftb

 

[Cochise]

Werner is standing in an offside position for a few seconds there before Maddison plays it.

 

[sparx100]

Bloody slow and ponderous. Not sure where the incisive play we have seen earlier in the season has gone.

 

[tobi]

nothing up top.

Son is dropping too deep, its unnecessary.

 

[nedley]

I'd be bringing Sarr on at HT.

Ultimately Ange has made the call to drop a player in form for 2 that are not.

It's not working out so far.

 

[BuryMeInEngland]

Todays word in N17 is 'ponderous'

 

[GioW]

Pretty miffed at what's going on at the moment with us tbh

 

[Misfit]

Well, a few green shoots there. We are just stuttering for the moment. Need a couple of players to rekindle their mojo.

Keep the tempo up though at least.

 

[Verloc]

Something is off. Players don't seem to be communicating with each other at all.
