Match Threads Spurs vs Sheffield United - Match Thread

[JCRD]

Im gonna be honest

This has been dire

 

[Johnny J]

Sheffield more than the sum of their parts.

We are far less.

 

[luRRka]

I would love to see a stat on how many misplaced passes we have made.

252 attempted, 210 completed, 83%
Sheff utd have 144 attempted, 105 completed, 73%

 

[Shadydan]

We need a defender who can at least pass it out from the back to start the moves, Alderweireld or Foyth would be a welcome change at HT

 

[Timberwolf]

Can't believe we made such hard work of ourselves by fxxking Sheffield United (I just can't spell it out out of respect to them) at home..

Tbf they're a really decent side. Have only lost once away since February or something i.e. the anti-Spurs.

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

Eveyone said it, Dier just been sent off

You bastard ?

 

[SpursD22]

It’s crazy how much we need a DM. Sissoko is doing his best but isn’t good enough for that position. We need someone there who is a good ball winner while position himself good defensively and shield the back line. Someone who’s good with the ball aswell

*cough* Sangare *cough*

I havent been watching I'll watch it later just reading some of the posts
Disheartening...did like the line up though

 

[Johnny J]

There's something badly wrong with our tactics when we have arguably the best no.9 in the world and we can't get him the bloody football.

I remember thinking Aurier was going to be fast. Must have a good YouTube editor

 

[paulcumpstone]

aurier and davies are such average players, lost count the number of times davies has just kicked it aimlessly up the pitch, don't even get distance on it

Thread is funny as fuck - 10/11 is what folk wanted to see - people losing their shit over the teams first performance as a group in the league this year ...

Don’t matter if it’s what we want. We’re still shit. Not surprised at all

 

[felmani26]

Another fucking woeful first half then.

 

[CowInAComa]

We used to have a back 5 of Lloris, Walker, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Rose all at their peak, with Dembele in front of them

Today we have a back 5 of Gazzaniga , Aurier, Sanchez, Dier, Davies with Sissoko infront of them


Funny old game innit. Sometimes life comes at you fast.

 

[JCRD]

That was turgid that half

 

[Blackrat1299]

Well Gale has said the first thing right...........we are so slow to pass.

I see.

Fuck a duck at that attitude.

 

[glacierSpurs]

We seemed to have regressed to a very bad habit we once used to have - passing to the player and not in front of the players.

The movement is so hampered and opponents always have so much time to regroup back and defend as a result.

 

[SpursD22]

Winks should come on. Preferably for Alli

Agreed, everyone likes to blame Kane for his movement but let's face it the job to find him is with the midfield not Kane. He has to run towards the corner flag then to get a ball, useless.
