Tottenham Vs Newcastle: Match Thread

[paulcumpstone]

paulinho and dembele need to grow a pair of balls and take some responsibility, lost count the times they been caught in possesion or needlessly passed back to Dawson

 

[E.L.Strict]

wow. People turning on avb. Proper pricks. Imagine getting rid now after backing him in the summer, would make us look like a joke once again. Get behind the team you tossers.

Agree, no point in doing anything other than support the team.

That doesn't excuse the fact that we have played awful, boring football for the entirety of his reign though.

 

[Ndombers]

get Townsend OFF! he's doing nothing with the ball anyway.

sandro or capoue should always be starting.

the lack of urgency is unbelievable.

what's the point in having a like for like (and inferior) striker on the bench? like that's gona make any difference. ade or even kane should be on the bench.

still, i'm sure avb thinks he can save this one, by sticking defoe on in the 85th minute. in the meantime, let's continue to play complete shit. really starting to tire of avb, gota hand it to him, how me manages to make such a talented bunch of players look so clueless and inept, week after week.

 

[mark87]

Brother and dad doing as much moaning as half the people on here, honestly it's like watching a spurs game with a couple of gooners, fucking critising EVERYTHING.

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

You can see that tactics are in play, as Walker is not pushing on in manner he previously did. He rarely gets down to the bye line these days.

 

[YidNick]

We all know what's going to happen. It'll be 1-0 with 20 minutes left and Defoe will come on (despite offering nothing) and we'll be playing with Soldado and Defoe up top. I can also see Holtby on for Eriksen and Lennon for Siggy

Edit: People complaining that Sandro and Capoue should start. Didn't people get pissed off when AVB did this at home last year? He can't win.

 

[tottenham28]

Slow, languid and lacking any class. Shocking performance again.
On that evidence, I really can't see us winning this today and I'm already shitting myself with fear, thinking of Aguero and his pace running at our back line in the near future.

 

[Sp3akerboxxx]

I don't mind missing out on fourth if we are playing well and attacking teams, but this turgid benign tumor brand of football makes it unbearable.

 

[Wick3d]

Just a poor half of football. Hopefully we can show more desire and move the ball quicker!

 

[walton]

The sooner we call Bale back from his loan, the better.

 

[TheGreenLily]

We need to get Lamela and Sandro on ASAP for Dembele/Paulinho and Siggy

Sandro for Dembele, push Paulinho forward and take off Siggy move Townsend left and bring Lamela on to play right.

 

[WiganSpur]

If our results start to turn then things are going to get a bit nasty.

Big second half.

 

[Kirito]

Our most expensive ever player sitting on the bench. I beg you AVB, unleash Lamela.

 

[Matthew Wyatt]

Seriously, are we losing at home to a mid table side? Been an AVB fan but WTF. Is it really all an "Emperor's New Clothes" sort of thing. Lose this and I'm with the "AVB out!" crowd. Get your fucking act together you little ***. You get to ride on past glories NO more, and frankly those past glories were pretty small when you look at it. If we don't qualify for CL this season I want a new manager. The boy needs a good slap.

 

[Babylon22]

All the money we've spent and we have a 40 year old in goal. Is this a joke?

 

[TheGreenLily]

Don't mean to sound negative but if we don't win this one then we are officially in crisis

A little extreme me thinks.

 

[Spurger King]

No, that newly assembled squad who are near the top of the league, despite not knowing each others games.

Ah ok, yes I can definitely see this 'team' being near the top of the league after this game and the two Manchester clubs.

I'm certainly not saying 'AVB out' or anything that ridiculous, but you must be able to see why people are getting pissed off when we're seeing the same problems game after game, with little apparently being done to rectify them?

 

[kitchen]

We are gonna won this.

Lamela on Townsend who has done nothing off or take Siggy off and move Townsend left.

Dembele off and Sandro on and push Paulinho more forward.

Maybe if those changes are made, and early...

 

[Real_madyidd]

I'm having flashbacks to Santini. Come on Spurs, pick up the pace and be a bit less predictable.

Ramos and Bentley at right back for me.

 

[tototoner]

I do not want to criticise Villas-Boas but I do want to make 1 point.

Goals win games not the possession percentage
