Match Threads Spurs vs Watford - Match Thread

[Spurs 1961]

Tbh, the Liverpool game is a bit of a freebie as we're the underdogs and we're not exactly going for the title this year. That's not to say that the players shouldn't give 100% or that we shouldn't aspire to be better than Liverpool in the future.

But what does losing to Liverpool actually tell us that we didn't already know?

The games against Leicester, Brighton and Watford today are more important imo, because they're our 'bread and butter' where we should be getting maximum points everytime.

And we're not...that's more informative of our current situation.

Good post. For a couple of seasons at least we rarely if ever lost to a team outside the top half of the table. This season so far we have drawn away to City and Arsenal instead of as usual losing but have failed badly against lower level teams. Even against Bayern we played really well for the first half an hour. We need to get back to a place where we never look like losing to the majority of teams and then start thinking of the top two

I know. It's like back in the day, old skool, 90s spurs.

Is Ruel fox fit?

No still injured

It's a hard one though mate, who would have thought we'd see a performance like that of the one away at Brighton after convincingly thrashing Palace at home whist looking back to our best. Obviously a good win is a positive, but it certainly won't alleviate many of my worries. I'm just not going to be convinced we've turned a corner regardless of how the game goes today, as glum as that sounds.

Yeah but significantly there's been a much larger gap between Brighton and Watford than the former and Bayern.

Lots of time to talk and reflect. If there's no reaction today we've a big problem.

If we do see a response it's a start.

If Lucas doesn't start this game i will be shocked, more so then usual because Son hasn't been back for long from International & Eriksen is a doubt

Pitch not looking great. Can see some NFL marks...

Front 4 has to be Lucas Dele Son Kane with Eriksen and Lamela on the bench

Thats confusing . I thought the NFL pitch slid in and was separate from the footie pitch . Not so ?

It does. They use the Astro for NFL.
Thought Bubble was joking but now I'm not so sure, he may just be an idiot!

I wonder if the lines are maybe where the different sections of the pitch meet?

The aftermath of the NFL is very visible. Was the turf laying directly on top of the grass? Maybe the lighting in the storage isnt good enough? That short video of a small area showed discoloration and a dead spot. Looking good seems to be pushing it

Oh Christ, can't believe I have to return to my emotional investment in this ludicrous football club. Fucking decades of my life go by with this shit.

Anyway, who's playing RB?

Probably Moura
