Match Threads Leeds Vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 35 - KO 12:30

[olliec]

A cheeky little shout out for us to get bielsa in? Love the way Leeds play. Could really enjoy watching Tottenham again under him. You can see bielsa doesn’t take any crap as well. He would give some of these players a real kick up the ass.

 

[allatsea]

No pace in midfield and other than Son no pace in attack. They wanted the win more than us and they played better football than us. Very disappointing.

 

[ackie]

Why doesn’t Rodon get a start. And why doesn’t Japhet start at right back?

Because some time i think RM picks the wrong players... Choosing names instead of thinking through the strategy and what's best for the team.
A supposedly attacking front foot selection, yet outplayed by Leeds.

 

[DannyNZ]

We hear this stupid shit anytime he doesn't score. He scored a cracker today and looks worn out from being at this mediocre club.

All good, think what you like but he was awful.

 

[Pompation]

I had the feeling that every Leeds chance could be a goal, it’s hard to watch a game with this feeling ?

 

[Dennism]

Toby the only player to come out of that with any credit for me

Also Lloris who was our best player.

 

[muppetman]

“It’s magnificent to be in Europe, and this club – a club like Tottenham Hotspur – if we’re not in Europe…. we’re nothing. We’re nothing.”

I want us to go all-in for the Conference League. Fed up with losing cup finals and don't want to go another decade without a trophy.

This club and cups - it's like we are too good for them, but not good enough to win them - utterly bizarre.

 

[sidford]

Suppose this performance shows that our next manager debate isn't that relevant as no matter who it is he has to deal with this bunch of pricks. Said it in another thread but outside of Harry and Hugo I wouldn't miss any of them

 

[slartibartfast]

Dier MotM for me. Had a great game.

 

[Blackrat1299]

We need a sugar daddy (No pun intended)

 

[N17NBL]

Let’s be honest, I don’t think anyone has learned anything today that we didn’t already know. Individually, we have a decent squad and players on paper. Our issue for the last few years has been the attitude-we saw it yet again today. Maybe they look great in training (the only reason I can think that Dier is constantly in the team?) but as soon as it’s a game, especially one that means something, the attitude and desire seems non existent. They look like a pick and mix team. We will always be 2nd best against any team that actually plays as a team with a positive and combative attitude.?

 

[muppetman]

We've struggled against teams that press us - be that in the Prem, the Europa or in the domestic cups so no surprise we struggled today.

Don't know if it's bad habits, lack of giving a shit or lack of fitness but it's surely the first thing that needs fixing.

 

[Tonio]

They aren't shit. They just lack desire and application. I would be far more comfortable with it if it was an ability issue. It isn't.

Mate we had Lo Celso literally run the ball out of play because he couldn't control it. If that isn't lack of ability then what is?

 

[Hawk_Spur]

We lost because of 'moments' according to Ryan.

 

[YB123]

Haha. We beat the rock bottom team in the league who has no manager and has only scored 18 goals all season.

I expected him to not completely bin our best performing centre back for a guy riddled with mistakes. I also expected him to know that Leeds United are the most effective pressing team in the league and utilising Ndombele who is nearly impossible to press would’ve been the perfect solution instead of a guy who offers nothing and is bang out of form.

Mr Hindsight, lmao. Idiot.

N'dombele impossible to press. I think you'll find our issue is a defensive perspective. Tracking runners. Something N'Dombele has been horrific at.

 

[Stamford]

I hate this group of players. Mentality amongst them is never going to improve.

 

[olliec]

Dier MotM for me. Had a great game.

Might as well give motm to a fridge freezer then as it would do a better job.

 

[spursfan77]

He will probably go back on loan to Norwich

No no no. He doesn’t get out of it that easily!

 

[YB123]

Players win 4-0 against an already relegated team and they’re back to thinking they’re billy big bollocks. The mentality of the squad and club is so far from reality it’s insane.

You can talk tactics, the other clubs etc.

This is what it comes down to.

 

[VegasII]

Might as well change the lineup a little bit for Wolves - give some of the other players a chance.
