Match Threads Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City - Match Thread

[ajspurs]

Think Kane just needs to focus on finding form, sharpness and match fitness first and foremost, he looked a bit sluggish (as to be expected) against Stoke.

Surprisingly City don't really have much on the bench to change things if they need to, no Aguero is obviously a plus.

They play different positions ..... How does a striker being on the bench make it harsh on Foyth?

Because a player of any position can be on the bench?!? Surely Son could deputize as striker, and there is no CB on the bench. Just saying that with the performances Foyth has put in when given the opportunity, IMO it is a bit harsh for him to not make the squad when there is an "opening" so to speak.

Fairs but a bit weird considering his recent twitter activity

 

[fortworthspur]

agree with giving Son a break. no complaints about the starting 11.

But we were going to have a striker on the bench... He pulls out and replaced by a striker. Let's not make 1+1 = 3 out of this .

Son's a great option to change the game off the bench, and Lamela's made for games like this. I like the lineup a lot.

Have no idea what's going to happen in this game, but feeling optimistic. COYS!

Nando dropped for personal reasons? Hope everything is ok! Seems odd, he was allegedly at the ground etc

Maybe he put a bet on Salah for golden boot

He tried to claim Kanes goal against Stoke.

If we make the most out of the times we pinch the ball through pressing and not be wasteful we wil win. If we fluff those opportunities we lose by a couple tbh.

Is this Henry lecturing Harry on how it's all about the team and winning the same Henry that got Pires to pass a penalty to him?

 

[WiganSpur]

Ahh, shame

 

[WiganSpur]

Did we really need a few minutes of listening to Bellamy and Henry tell us how righteous they used to be about goals?

They have a point to be fair. You should always put the team first.

He's chatting shit

team harry?

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

We need to press the fuck out of them like Liverpool did. Lamela is key to that. Good starting 11 for me

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Don’t mind Lamela in for Son but Dier in for Wanyama?

I couldn't give a shit what Henry did but what he says is true regardless of whether he practised what he's preaching.

This is fine if the goal Kane has claimed was in detriment to the team but it wasn't, Spurs won the game.

It's been a week and they are still making a deal out of something that is quite frankly not worth the airtime or the bandwidth that has been wasted over it. Football punditry for the most part has become a joke.

You do understand that Dier is the starter, and Wanyama came in for Dier last match....it's not the other way around.
