Tottenham Vs Stoke: Match Thread

[roslau]

I blame Poch who selected kaboul as the team captain

 

[Rout-Ledge]

Mancini is a free agent, proven track record in the Premier League.

I think you'd have to be utterly stupid not to rather Mancini as our manager right now

 

[Dr Know]

The thing about Levy is he has overseen us from a mid table team to a top 4 side.

But he's also overseen the decline from top 4 back to mid table (at best).

It's getting harder and harder to defend key figures at White Hart Lane at the moment.

The saying "what goes up, must come down" seems suited to that post

 

[paulcumpstone]

Again, fucking careless with the pass.

and that is the problem, nowhere near good enough, only capable most of them of taking 3 touches then square pass

This is the worst Tottenham team I v seen for the last ten years #COYS

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

What issue should I be looking at? Its all down to Pochettino that they're playing so poorly and making so many mistakes?

Where has the major change at the Club been?

I would say the manager, wouldn't you?

 

[alfiespurs]

You have to see the funny side what a waste of money.....serves levy right for sacking Harry...karma is served..

 

[dk-yid]

So how we playing.......?

Brilliantly. We are tearing them apart.

 

[prawnsandwich]

MoPo does not look like he knows what to do-apart from Ade for Chadli neither do I.

 

[Ossie'sAardvark]

Might as well change everything at half time. Blow the bugle with this lot.

 

[cooko70]

But remember....
None of this is Daniels fault........

 

[Grapo2001]

I think Poch is going to be scrutinised after this but the players are to blame. Lloris is the only one I'd be genuinely sad to see leave. We need a new squad and we don't have the funds to do that. Worrying times.

Poch trains them, picks the team, tells them the tactics, does the team talk. He has to take a lot of the blame

 

[Shea]

There's my point about Fazio, right there

Fazio looks shit - far too slow and clumsy
Chiriches looks weak, error prone and sloppy/slow
Capoue looks awful and not up to EPL standard
Stamboui has looked ok but considering he was bought at a time we were looking to bring someone in of Schniderland's quality and we ended up with a guy who isn't even making the first team it's not good enough
Soldado looks a completely waste of a lot of money
Lamela has done nothing but at least is young enough to be given time
Erkisen has produced but is not effective in our currents system
Chadli is ok but not the type of quality we needed

We sold a world class player and instead of buying a couple of potential world class players in a few key areas we splashed a fuck load of money on a bunch of average players who were not suited to our team and we've basically regressed to a stage where we were facing relegation under Ramos

We're lucky to not be in or around the survival battle and to be frank if things carry on this way we'll be dragged in to it

I really wish Enic and Levy would fuck off now - they'll never bring success to the club

 

[tobi]

Describe Tottenham Hotspur - "Easy to play against."

The truth hurts.

 

[thinktank]

We're just scared to play. Confidence is at level: shite.

 

[$hoguN]

WTF is this mess.

 

[kaz Hirai]

I really hope lloris leaves on jan 1st. I really feel embarrassed that he is wasting a promising career playing for relegation material

 

[robin09]

We're in the 'shrug shoulder' zone.

The players sort of would like to have made that simple pass, but, you know, whatever.

Meanwhile, Stoke are teaching us how to move and create space in attack. Incredible. We're hopefully at the bottom of shit valley right now. We can't get worse than this, surely.

 

[dannythomas]

The players just aren't taking instructions because this is a million miles from Southampton under Pochettino.

Another managerial change? No good whatsoever but this squad, despite the apparent talent, is fucking rotten mentally.

He was allowed to use an interpreter at Southampton..

 

[CosmicHotspur]

I cannot imagine the half-time team talk. I don't even want to...

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

Eriksen and Capoue are woefully out of form
