Match Threads Spurs vs Norwich - Match Thread (FA Cup)

[bubble07]

All we need now is derby to win to really stick the knife in

I've got no idea why Vorm was playing which ultimately cost us the game.

In my mind it means Hugo is going to miss Burnley and the CL match.

 

[midoshairband]

Why are we like this?

because we are run by an incompetent midget ballbag.

Kicking off in the stadium fight in the amongst Spurs fans

Apparently that was dier...

I don't understand the lack of patience really. What are people expecting with our two best attacking players out injured? I'm bored of saying it but there are a lot of mitigating factors. Let's just see where we are this time next season before we start throwing toys out the pram.

Lack of patience??? You talking Mourinho or ENIC? I wouldn’t be blaming Jose just yet as he took over a shit show but Levy has had 2 decades now!!

Chelsea don't have Abraham (main striker) Kante (best midfielder) and just beat Liverpool

A large part is the understandable lingering frustration with the whole Poch-DL thing I think.

JM was in a no lose sitch in some ways but also a hiding to nothing if it didn't somehow miraculously work out perfectly as pre-existing frustrations get directed at him.

Not that it changes much but DL's stock has really started tanking in general in my Spurs circle. Do the money thing but stepping back completely from the football side of thing in general is what most desire.

Unless Jose walks (which I highly doubt) he will be here in the summer. Lord Levy has to make those signings we need happen or needs to disappear

I agree when you look at the picture of this season but not so much on tonight's performance and result. We should have taken the game to Norwich not sat on a 1-0 lead.

I honestly can't see where our next win is gonna come from, look at our fixtures ffs, we are SCREWED

Not to play 10 men behind the ball for 75 minutes. Play to win.

You may call for me to be sectioned but I do think we will get it together to get a few wins before the season is out. Ideally sooner rather than later.

 

[IamSpurtacus]

Didn't see the game but strip out - a WC winning, world class goalkeeper, world class wing-forward, world class-striker and world class GOAT (Mouss, in case you're wondering), and i think most teams would struggle

A further indictment is that when Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and United have brought in youngsters for cup games, they seem premier league standard or close - why are so few of our players up to scratch at equivalent stage, and why are there so few youth options to replace first team members?

he needed to make those signings for Poch. he needed to make them for Harry all those years ago.

he never has. he never will. it’ll never change.

When Kane/Son are back yes, until then i see no chance of us winning games, Lucas is dead on his feet from non stop playing, Bergwijn is now most likely injured, who else will score the goals needed to win games when our defence keeps letting us down?

 

[SugarRay]

Lol!! He's lost his credit.

Blokes been in charge 4 months midway through a season that in all honesty was shaping up like a shit sandwich from the off.

Add the loss of Kane, Son, Lloris, a focused Eriksen, Verts and Toby running on fumes, an out of form Dele etc etc.

Lets take off the rose tinted glasses. We were playing as bad as this when Poch was in charge.

The squad needs changes. It needed it when Poch was here and it still does so let's if Levy can deliver in the next couple of windows.

That’s fair. Getting outplayed at home to the worst team in the top flight in England, again, isn’t anywhere near good enough. Even taking in to account our injury situation

Diabolical result and season absolutely finished tonight. We won’t get 50 points. Again, even with our injuries, shocking return

 

[WiganSpur]

Chelsea don't have Abraham (main striker) Kante (best midfielder) and just beat Liverpool

I didn't want to list them but here we go:

- Our coach has come in mid season and has had about 2 or 3 full weeks to actually coach the team
- Our first choice keeper has been injured for most of his tenure
- We've had a combination of players who don't want to be here and players on physical decline
- We're clearly not the finished article players wise, the need for DM, CB, RB etc is evident
- Kane and Son injuries - Pretty much our two best players. Think of Liverpool without Salah and Mane. Come on.
- Above meaning other attacking players get run into the ground and played out of position
- Up to tonight we've still been playing in 3 competitions which exasperates the above
- And yeah maybe Mourinho isn't perfect on top of that too

If you can't see all the above as reasons to be patient then there's no hope. It seems like frustration is just boiling over in the fans i've noticed. There's not a lot we can do about the situation until the summer so we just have to support the team and get on with it.

The anger directed at Levy I can somewhat understand, but anger at Mourinho is really perplexing at this point considering all the above.

Not to play 10 men behind the ball for 75 minutes. Play to win.

By all means criticise this approach next season if he gets his players and has no significant injuries to deal with. That's all i'm saying.
