We need to kill this game early in the second half. Sanchez is picking up some really, really idiotic positions way too far up the pitch and it’s leaving massive gaps.

Good to see we're creating chances but we have to kill them off

Yep really should be two or three goals up here. Good performance so far imo. Can see what Sissoko is offering higher up the pitch as a physical pressing player. Shame he’s not got the technique to match his work rate.

The sub should be Winks or Sissoko off for an attacker to give us better shape. Very unlikely when we are winning though as Jose is too risk averse for that.

Much better after the first 20 or so minutes, but we need a second goal. It’s Fulham at home we’re playing, no disrespect to them but we should win this comfortably

Take off Winks or Sissoko for Dele or Lamela

Reggie and Ndombele have been excellent. We’ve created enough chances to have this over already, need to maintain the same intensity second half.

For that reason i think Jose will keep him on, especially as the score is finely balanced, lets just hope we can get that 2nd goal instead of holding onto a 1 goal lead

I thought the formation was going to be a massive clusterfuck after the opening 5-10 minutes, but we played some excellent football.

Tanguy actually looked rapid on a couple of occasions as well, good to see that burst of pace being used by him, he's looking more confident in his play.

Reggie, what a cross son

We have to keep Sissoko on to cover Serge, the only way Bale or another attacking player can come on is for Winks. Having said that Lamela seems to take pride in his defensive duties but I fear covering Serge may be a bridge too far

Mentioned it during the first half but it’s really refreshing listening to positive Spurs commentary. I’m sure listening to Sky drone on about us contributes to the negative atmosphere in the match day thread.

As others have said I’m also really enjoying McCoist’s positivity about both sides, clearly loves the game.

Amazon commentary is a breath of fresh air. Sky are just Archaic and an old boys club now. Would love Amazon to get the full rights.

Really disappointed in Winks. After a couple of good performances, he should be kicking on, yet he's reverted to type. Too many safe passes and the ones he has played forward he botched, despite being relatively easy ones.


Despite that I think we've been fine. Better quality in the final third and we'd have a comfortable lead.

We have to kill this game next half and not do the classic sit back and ask to be beaten. Go for it. Dele for Sissoko and put him on the right of a 433. Can bring on Bale for Winks at around the 65th or 70th if needed.
