Match Threads Spurs vs Chelsea - Match Thread

[glacierSpurs]

Verts is feeling it. Fuck.

 

[Giovanni]

I sure as hell hope jose has an n'dombele or lo celso shaped plan up his sleeve.

We dont look top 10 right now

 

[Wsussexspur]

Long ball after long ball

 

[yusrisafri]

Its just the long ball strategy from Toby thats been giving us the goals. Without that tactic, we have not been creative at all in midfield. Something is really wrong and Jose needs to fix this.

 

[The Apprentice]

Four footballing central midfield options on the bench and we have to resort to Dier and Sissoko.

 

[GutBucket]

Too many inconsistent players in this team who are even more sporadic because of horrible midfield and oftentimes terrible fullbacks. Even so, players have to play like they actually care. Moura deserved to start but you just never know which version you are gonna get.

 

[KingKay]

Awful so far, absolutely nothing in the middle. We look so much poorer without Winks.

 

[Col_M]

Dier and Sussy aren’t showing themselves for the easy pass for our CBs

 

[Dr Know]

Feels like the Chavs got 20 outfield players!

 

[glacierSpurs]

Stop passing back... Please.

 

[ajspurs]

Terrible from Dier there. Need much much more from the middle.

 

[paulcumpstone]

results have been better under Mourinho but you wouldn't know poch wasn't still here, the tactics are still invisible

 

[LDNYid]

Chuck on Lo Celso/Eriksen and Ndombele either side of Dier and haul off Sissoko and Lucas.

 

[Oscar22]

It’s bizarre, we do quite literally play without a midfield. We’re reliant on a Toby long ball being taken down by Son or Alli. Sissoko and Dier just don’t have a creative pass in them.

 

[yido4life]

Why is it that every game I watch us play recently We seem to make the opposition look like they have an extra player

 

[Blue]

getting forced to play long balls 90% of the time..

 

[Gbspurs]

Its just the long ball strategy from Toby thats been giving us the goals. Without that tactic, we have not been creative at all in midfield. Something is really wrong and Jose needs to fix this.

Everyone knows what's wrong, our only proven midfielder who can give us control of the midfield doesn't want to play for us anymore. No easy fix to that!

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Feels like the Chavs got 20 outfield players!

As poor as we’ve been, they’ve been excellent

 

[ClintEastwould]

Please, please make use of the two 60 million quid players on the bench.

Nah much better to keep the two cloggers on while our CBs punt it upfield

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

Well Fat Frank has won the first 45 minutes. Although Jose isn’t being helped by the players. Being unable to pass to a team mate isn’t on the manager.
