Matchday discussion

It no longer matters who is at fault.

We need to get rid of... JM and his whole management team.

We need to get rid of... Aurier, Doherty, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Winks, Sissoko, NDombele, Lo Celso, Lamela, Alli, Moura, Bergedijn & Vinicius.
they are not fit to wear the shirt

 

Just seen Hugo giving his views after match and he has gone up in my estimation as he has been honest about the disgrace tonight.Reading between the lines it is obvious there is trouble in the camp .He has not named anyone but the intimation is that not everyone is pulling together and he does mention training and hints that all is not well.I was amazed to see the genuine hurt and anger from him which proves he cares .If you have not seen it try to catch up because he has not pulled any punches

 

RIP Jose

Alas we never knew you well

 

Eddie Howe is still available?
I doubt Levy will axe him. There is no replacement, there is no money. He will finish the season mid-table where we currently belong.

 

Please say your joking Spurporter Eddie Howe

 

Will be sacked at the end of the season in all probability

And yes you are correct... Jose will most likely finish the season mid table where he currently belongs

 

The next thing will be him telling everyone how it’s his biggest achievement yet....

 

I find it laughable that there are those (and I'm not necessarily talking about this website) that hold our present manager accountable for nothing. Really? is that so? then why exactly are we paying 15 million a season for him if his influence is zero? How about we put Ledley in charge and for a pittance of the cost

Jose by all means prove me wrong... win 10 in a row and secure Champions League... I will gladly put up with another year of your dross if you can pull that off

 

That won’t happen and I would not be prepared to put up with the dross for another year whatever happens between now and the end of the season

 

At last a win but don’t let it go to our headslSanchez still a disaster waiting to happen .Vinicius apart from his tapin still can’t hold the ball up.Positives Tanganga andRodon showed promise and Moura is at long last looking the player we hoped he would be much to my surprise.Nice to see our midfield showing some intent to go forward .Definitely not missed Sissoko Winks Bale and Dier

 

Rodon and Tanganga looked good...Vinicus did ok, I think with a run of games he could be ok....having 2 up front looked decent

 

Tanganga and Rodon need a run of games. with Reggie & Toby... in my opinion... that should be our back 4 now.
Sanchez is poor but did better today....albeit against a poor side.....
but....he should never play with Dier. In fact just never play Dier.

Moura did well today.
My concern always is that NDombele just puts no
positive effort in so Moura has to play deeper to start things.
Hojbjerg is the holding player so fine for him to be more defensive...... but NDombele has no excuse. Against better teams we suffer.

Vinicius..... still a no from me. same for Bergwijn and Lo Celso.

But we pushed the ball around pretty well today. JM will be happy that we controlled the game.

surprised Barkley didn't play more of the game for them. If Chelsea don't want him I'd take him next season (over NDombele, Lo Celso, Alli or Lamela) to sit alongside Hojbjerg & Skipp

 

Don't understand the negativity towards Carlos

10 goals 3 assists over the equivalent of just 10 and a half full matches

Yes the majority of those minutes have been against lower league sides but regardless what more would you expect of him? He produced 24 goals and 13 assists for Benfica last season by the way... he's not exactly an unproven commodity

He's a back up striker in a single forward system. At our financial level (which is not exactly poor) he's more than good enough to fill that role ie. we don't have the excessive amounts of coin necessary to pay an Aguero to mostly sit on the bench

Is he as polished as Llorente? No... but he's got good size and pace and a good level of skill and I'd welcome him if he returned in a similar capacity next year

 

I don't agree with all of your opinion. Tanganga and Rodon were able to show Mourinho that he can play young players instead of insisting with Dier for example. It's a good thing and they took their chance! On the other hand, even though the opponent was rather weak offensively, Sanchez had a pretty decent game overall. You must also know how to recognize it because always targeting it is not part of the vocabulary of a good supporter! Lucas Moura was very good and he was also our best player against fu@king gooners ... Ndombele struggled to enter the game but he was better in the second half. It's up to him to adapt to the intensity of the Premier League ... Since time ...! Hojberg has had its ups and downs. I always appreciate his performance and his efforts but he clearly needs to improve technically because he can be dangerous at times and not in the right side... ! Well done to Vinicius who fought with his weapons. He must play more to regain confidence. What not everyone might understand, whether you are a good 30 million pounds or an average player, confidence and playing time are essential to regain some thrill. Vinicius has only had ends of the game and we should take that into account in our criticism. Ditto for Lo Celso who returns from injury! Ok he was not very good but we have to give him some playing time so that he regains the level he is supposed to have. On the other hand, for Bergwijn and for Sissoko, the less playing time they have, the better it will be for us! Funny, but no one is targeting Kane. He has been significantly below his standards for several games. And even if he's our best player, it also affects the rest of the squad when he's not so good. To be continued if this 4-4-2 is the right solution. In any case, it couldn't be worse than Thursday night in Zagreb! COYS !

 

I think Kane has seen enough..... and will be gone to Man City in the summer.
And to be honest.....we supporters should not begrudge him that.
If our club don't want to meet his ambitions why should we stop him going elsewhere to meet them!?

Sanchez did have a better game..... but is still awful with the ball at his feet..... awful positionally..... awful at concentrating for 90 minutes....
He's a strong lad so anything waist and above, in close contact, he has a chance at.
But as a PL CB...... I doubt any other team in the top 10 would put him in their team.
you could argue that every other PL team has a better CB.

 

Just seen Bales interview and it proves what I always suspected that he was using us to try and get fit for Wales.I personally never wanted him back after 3 years playing golf but Levy once again falls for the hype.I can’t imagine any other top six team contemplating signing him.Even the spurs fans are deluded thinking he would be the same player as he was after a decent spell against lower order teams.He has stolen a living for 3 years and I would send him back toReal now if I could.I really hope Levy is not sucked in again next season.

 

It's certainly a nice £300k a week favour we are doing him!!
Not sure why he would come out and day it like he has. But maybe its a reason JM hasn't been fully utilising him.
If he sprints about at 110% for Wales that would not, as a Spurs supporter, be nice to see.

On the 'going back to Madrid next season' ..... I guess he isn't our player so that is his right. But if Zidane is still there I don't see it.

 

I don’t think Zidane has a say as he will play golf for a year unless they pay up his contract.I can see him in America where he can star without working his socks off

 

He was only ever signed on loan so I do t really see what he has said that is wrong to be fair to him...if he can score and set up a few more before he leaves, that will be enough. I don’t want him next year anyway, especially not earning more than all of the other top players we have. Would rather split the £300k per week across new defenders (CB and RB ideally).

 

...... probably worse to read Madrid allowed Bale to come here to work on Kane moving to Spain with him next season

I guess at least Madrid might pay somewhere close to his value.... and Kane won't be in the PL
