@SkySportsBoxing Awful fight. No one deserved to win.

@discoveryplusUK why is the UHD stream for the football so bad? I watch UHD content on all other apps and yours is the only one that keeps cutting out and, as a result, my stream is miles behind live. At least @SpursOfficial are winning.

@1ManAndHisBL0G @RossNicholas2 @SimonWarrenSFC @pablo_dorch Not to be all "proper football man" about it, but I would have preferred an English coach. Potter would have been my choice. 90% of what Southgate did was brilliant in creating a united team and fanbase. I hope we don't lose that.

@FootballRamble “The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning. It's nothing of the kind. The game is about glory. It is about doing things in style, with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom.”

@LilywhiteLab Add in Porro and Romero and our buildup down the right is causing them problems time after time.

@TheExtraInch question for the pod: after that performance from Mikey Moore, surely he gets minutes over Werner? He made things happen and looked like he’d always played at this level. Maybe he won’t stretch the defence like Werner, but what the point of that if you can’t finish?

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

@gbacon85 The finish was so obvious. Hit it first time on your right foot and curl it inside the post. Even if it’s your weaker foot, at this level that’s still a relatively easy finish. Surely Mikey ahead of him now?

@Flav_Bateman Surely the bare minimum for someone commentating on a Spurs game is to understand how we play? Even more so for Hoddle who is a Spurs legend. I thought it was a good perfomance, the commentators made out we were lucky to win.

@VFTLpodcast Am I the only person who thought that was a good performance tonight? Yes, there were a few nervy moments but anyone who’s being paying attention knows “that’s the way we play mate”. Moore excellent, Gray good, Lankshear promising. Some attacking play was 👌.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

@JoeBarton_ It seemed to be a very forced narrative. That’s what we do, risk v reward. I was never really worried in what could have been a difficult game. Maybe commentators should watch a few games before shitting their pants about how we play.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

@Spooky23 I think we’ve played pretty well considering the rotation and young players. By far the better team but Matterface and Hoddle making out we’ve been lucky to “hang on”.

@VFTLpodcast Do tonight’s performances from Moore and Werner justify the former starting over the latter?

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

@JackPittBrooke A first time shot and that’s a goal. Brilliant by Moore, he’s putting Werner to shame.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

A good summary of how @SpursOfficial played tonight in picture form.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

@JackPittBrooke Let’s not forget that Coventry made 7 changes too. This has to be a systematic problem, it’s been the same in most games so far this season. So much pointless possession, never looked like scoring.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

For a team that relies so heavily on the wide players to stretch defences and create space, our lack of quality in those positions is criminal.

[Ⓜⓐⓡⓚ Ⓑⓘⓡⓓ @Markbirdy]

76% possession but 0 shots in the first half sums up our season so far. We’re so easy to play against. #COVTOT #COYS
