@pokeefe1 @shelleyj89 If we’re going to go on and have a successful period under Conte, how many of todays back 3/5 are realistically going to be a part of it? The margins are too fine at this level, it’s surely the area that he’ll upgrade next.
@Craig_Spur Neither of them are that good, are they? The minute Spence plays and gets done defensively people will be all over him instantly. It’s just not a great situation down that side.
@GaffneyVLC Little point picking out Gil, he was only on because the front three came up short. Richy was poor, not as if Sessegnon made any difference either and he’s had plenty of minutes. Kulu is the big miss in all of this. Would have suited Saturday and tonight.
@samw1t This is it, this is Tottenham right here. If you score a couple of these you’re out of sight at HT. If you don’t, you live with the consequences of surrendering possession. This isn’t to do with today, it’s every week. Once you play someone decent you run the risk we’ve just seen
@Craig_Spur @pokeefe1@hbrooks_coach We’d have a squad of 200 if it was down to fans managing outgoings. Rarely do we move on fringe/squad players and they go onto great things. He might but he hasn’t yet and it isn’t our concern.
@charlieparrish It’s a system based on success in the weakest area of our squad. Problem is we’re not the only ones who know this! Even more unusual that it has yielded such a good run so what do we know?!
@charlieparrish If controlling the game is not having the ball then you have to be damn ruthless when you do. That was an accident waiting to happen, Fulham aside that is how we’ve been rolling.
@charlieparrish Was just saying the same. He clearly doesn’t think possession = control but it’s a hard watch when the breaks don’t work. It’s different to the JM low possession, we’re not under constant bombardment -The defence is far more organised, Saturday will be a good test of the theory!
@GaffneyVLC This has happened for years. A few under performing players turn in a handful of acceptable performances and people get all sentimental and protective. Luckily signings aren’t based on fan opinions.
@pokeefe1 Not much in it for half hour but didn’t matter how we won, just needed the win. We’re at our best when the ball is where our best players are. In the last third.
@charlieparrish Spent most of this season thinking we have no chance. Then we somehow find ourselves in with a chance. I can live with dropping points, I can’t live with performances like the last two. That’s what does me more than anything. It’ll all be over in a month at least, if not before!!
