Tottenham Hotspur v Sheffield Utd League cup semi Final first leg

[Bullet]

Dear me, substandard play from loads of our lot.

Very impressed by their work rate.

They will really fancy this in Sheffield, one game, one goal and you could be playing at Wembley!

We need to play a lot better next Weds. Sod the Leicester game, we are one performance away from Wembley.

yellow atleast. deliberate handball

He'd already been booked, so presume the ref knew this and decided to ignore the rules.

We really don't have much of a clue how to play against sides that work hard, press us and get players behind the ball.

Very worrisome.

Its quite sad to see how limp we have become. Tonight showed us in a big way where we truely are at the moment...........however much some people might live in denial !

1st leg we've got the win, lucky with them giving us the pen, but we forced them into the mistake.

COYS !!!

It's funny, the same people on here moaning at others for expecting to win by a hatful are the same who were wooohooo'ing like a bunch of woo woo girls when the draw was pulled out the hat. Pathetic but only because theyre the foolish ones...

Tough win.

because we missed out on liverpool and chelsea. this was never going to be easy so im not sure why youre even talking?

least we're ahead which forces them to come out in the 2nd leg.....and we're decent away (plus we'll have 5500 backing us all the way)

Not a great showing tonight, only upside is if we score 1 next Wednesday they need 3 to go through and I can't see them doing that.

Tough match, we didn'tmanage to break them down when they were so defensive.

Not a good match though, alot of stray passes and I can't remeber one real chance we created ??

Mason and Davies was appaling, absolutely shocking, they looked like pub players, worst perfomance for any player this season ..

agreed. we are in the driving seat. even a draw sees us through.

Maybe people will start realising what Lamella brings. His spark,energy and skill is what is needed against teams who sit back. Of course it doesn't always happen for him,but it only takes a couple of things he does per game to come off and pay dividends....

im not going to complain about the result, its the fact that we couldnt do the basics that irks.

just the general control, first touch and usage of the ball was miles off what we are entitled to expect. it was littered with dreadful performances and technically poor displays.

if we had played anywhere near a level we are capable of and looked like working the keeper from open play im sure no-one we be complaining.

We should score, meaning they will need 3 right? Or does away goals not count anymore?

Im not denying that yet again, we played woeful under Poch, yet again he made some shockingly bad management decisions, and yet again he showed his inability to have a clue how to break down and beat a lesser team. Are you denying it ?

1 goal in sheffield then just 4 in a line, two def mids infront and start lloris.. theyd have to score 3.

 

[awesome dawson]

do away goals count in this tournament?

 

[paxtonwolf]

Well they will fancy their chances now for sure. The big bonus has to be the clean sheet, that's massive though.

Pretty average performance tonight, very disappointed with Eriksen tonight, not seen him play that poor for a long time, did he forget which end we were attacking?

It's going to be a great atmosphere next Weds night that's for sure, we are going to need all our 5500 to give the lads our full support, it is going to go down to the wire.
