Match Threads Watford vs Spurs

Also huge shout out to Hugo. One great save and that block off his line kept us in the hunt for the win. Really desperate to get him his new contract. Will be a huge void to fill if we let him go.

Dominated, but with no end product all too often. Certainly a lot of work to do.

Been looking at a few posts. We are never going to the top with two defensive midfielders. We need a big upgrade there to be anything but a hard to beat team. Only when Conte was forced to change things for the match against Liverpool did we look like a good side

You can get away with the 2 holding players if the wingbacks are offensive players. Neither offer anything other than an outball and good engines. Neither commit defenders, beat men or get to the byline often enough and both for me are on borrowed time. The delivery today especially from royal was dreadful. Far too often its just aimlessly kicking into the near post and even when he gets more height on it, it lacks the pace and shape yo cause an issue.

I believe the eight was shown again right before play restarted in the 93rd minute.

It was, that's true, but it was never shown before the incident stopped play so wouldn't it have made more sense to show 11 on the board?

Got lucky there. Wins a win though

Beg to differ mate. Top teams did that so often. Quality delivery, quality header. Well deserved win.

Frustrating game to watch, but I think we did enough to deserve that. It’s not like we didn’t have chances to score before the Sanchez goal. But for some very lucky goal keeping Son would have scored from that lovely dink from Lucas.

Anybody lay a bet on Sanchez to score in the 96th minute?

Put him in my Fantasy football team this morning ?

 

[offside_ruel_fox]

Never in doubt ?

3 massive points, Sanchez was outstanding, defensively was impressive and the goal was the icing on the cake. COYS

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Massive, massive let off. Our away form compared to our home form is chalk and cheese. Huge improvement needed.

Commentators still raving about Watford deserving something. What game were they watching. They did nothing, but sit back.

Well it almost worked so they almost deserved a draw.

It didn't so they don't.

 

[The Apprentice]

Big Dave! Haha. Better to be lucky I guess.

Changes needed desperately in January. If Conte is wedded to that starting XI, we are going to struggle to break teams down on a regular basis.

Wing back is a major area for improvement. No point creating acres for them both all game, just for them both to fritter away all the openings.

Take the win and fuck off out of there.

 

[rossdapep]

Shame on you for laying into Conte

 

[HildoSpur]

Great to get the win. Made hard work if it but all that matters is getting those three points.

 

[piedpiper]

We got the 3 points but boy was that painful to watch... we need a major squad overhaul and particularly in midfield.

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

Yeh Baby!!!! Dance, Dance Dance!!!

Solid as a rock, defended very well high up, very positive in general today and a magic winner!!!!!

They got exactly what they deserved

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Player ratings just went up a point or 2 after our late winner…

 

[Dr Know]

Shit game, 3 points, move on

Happy new year me fellow Spurs fans!
