Tottenham (A) 17/2: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Elephant Pyjamas]

He’s in a weird spot of (probably) having the lowest ceiling of our CBs, relatively speaking, but the traits he has are pretty crucial to how Gary wants our shape to change with the ball.

Really like him despite the rough edges.

Yeah i don't think this shape works without Totti in this role.

 

[Alan]

Yeah i don't think this shape works without Totti in this role.

If only!

What a half that was, absolutely mental pace, like a bloody basket ball game. When teams come out to play we can really go toe for toe with some really good sides. Done very well to keep Son and Maddison out of the game

The pace has been relentless. Suspect Taylor letting loads go has contributed to that, some of which he shouldn’t have allowed.

 

[Jinky]

Ffs

 

[YoungWolf]

Fuck sake

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Christ that was jammy.

 

[Del Woppio]

Fucking hell

 

[GLASGOWOLF]

Lucky but a good finish

 

[Alan]

Fuck sake

 

[Jack Regan]

Fucks sake!

 

[The Bear]

Not quite switched on there.

 

[Squeak]

So I said we could not afford to concede early before the start of the game, so we do so at the start of the second half. Terrible. From our own kick off.

 

[Jinky]

All that work in the first half wiped out within 40 seconds. Shite from Dawson & Sa nutmegged.

Their first shot on target.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

3 lucky bobbles and then he prods it between Sa's legs. Jammy bastard.

 

[Deano]

Shocking stuff from Dawson and Sa

 

[Alan]

Really don’t expect that kind of “challenge” from Dawson.

Now they’ve got adrenaline pumping; need to keep it tight for a bit.

 

[Squeak]

3 lucky bobbles and then he prods it between Sa's legs. Jammy bastard.

Yeah... but that doesn't happen if we retain possession better from the kick off.

 

[The Bear]

Paying for not scoring another goal in the first half really.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

It's frustrating, but i'm loathed to criticise anyone too much there, Toti made a challenge, Lemina made a challenge, Dawson made a challenge, Dawson was fearful of the penalty then it drops into his path and he just pokes it, not a lot Sa can do there, close range and hit early and weird.

 

[Wolftone]

Need some Neto magic.
