Spurs (H) 25/4: Build-up & Match Thread

[Alan]

I don't understand the lineup.... Doc, Amstrong...

By don't put Olangunju, or test Dani Angel, or Holman?

Need watch another options to championship.

Manu is a example.

Tinkering of that sort is not usually looked at positively in England, it seems (I'm on the outside looking in, granted).

 

[Alan]

I think Swindon would be pissed if we played one of their players

They should have been more concerned with playing Grimsby, it seems

Edit: Holy fuck, Junior Hoilett is not a name I expected to see today. He's been around forever.

And yet only 35. When I saw he had signed for them I presumed he would be be 40+.

Signed for Blackburn when he was 13! Pretty crazy for a kid from Canada in 2003.

Time is weird.

 

[Jinky]

When you look at some of the players Spurs have got, it’s ludicrous that they’re in the bottom three isn’t it?

I think they’ll comfortably win today.

7 weeks since our last home game. So, so stupid.

 

[Jinky]

Well, nearly 10 minutes in and we haven’t strung 2 passes together. It makes you wonder what Edwards is doing with them all week.

Going to be a long afternoon, I think.

The gap between the bottom two and the rest is pretty big. Just started watching and our only semi-accurate passes are back passes. But only one team with an incentive to win, I guess.

 

[Celtiña]

the position of 3 back defense are all time bad, they are so many close.

that force Lima-Bueno stay all time back.

 

[Mel Evo]

Matter of time.

 

[NicholasG1973]

We’re sitting off them, giving them Real Madrid-levels of respect.

They’re third bottom and utter shit.

Whatever they are, we are an order of magnitude worse.

 

[Jinky]

We’re just existing in the moment. Offering absolutely nothing. No game plan, no purpose, no options. Armstrong is holding nothing up (surprise), Hugo B has been penned in 3-4 times with no options to pass to, meaning he’s lost it every time. Andre & Joao have started appallingly.

I’ll never criticise anyone for going and supporting the team/squad, but given the price of tickets and how shit we are, I’m amazed this is effectively sold out (or at least looks it). The fans deserve better.

 

[Jinky]

Armstrong has been fucking shite. You’re playing on a pitch like carpet and it’s bouncing miles off you. Wank.

 

[Mel Evo]

It feels like the fullest I’ve known it this calendar year.

 

[malta mick]

With the sun shadow I can hardly see the match. Some may say that’s a good thing

 

[Del Woppio]

Makes you sick that these cunts get paid more in a year than most of us do in a lifetime

 

[Jinky]

If Rob Edwards isn’t a lying prick and is telling us the truth about Tolu/Mane and that the situation has been dealt with - he needs to bring Tolu on in the second half because otherwise this will be the easiest game of the season for those Spurs centre backs. Armstrong is complete powder puff.

 

[malta mick]

The only hope is that we generally play better second half

 

[PuntsWolf]

I still find it amazing that we have managed to build this squad with absolutely zero threat.

 

[Mel Evo]

Nuno era songs in the sun.
