OMT: Mighty Spurs vs Brighton & Hove Albion

[paxtonwolf]

Put a South Korean brick on his back and Son buries that

 

[fernadez]

fudge it

Dier for Son

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Son has played like my 7 year old Son

Is there a competition within our squad for the "Dumbest way to get suspended" award? Kulu's 5 second long shirt pull to rack up 5 bookings rivals Yves' 2nd yellow for diving. It was Wellbeck, just let him miss it ffs..

It's absolutely a good intervention from VAR, presumably loads of bodies blocking his view but that shouldn't stop that incident being a pen. Crazy how long the review took.

Also the situation with Udogie having two players by himself to deal with for the goal needs to be investigated, that's not about missing personnel, it's just dog brick defending.

As for Johnson choosing to cut back to let the defender get goalside instead of giving Son or Richy a tap in, that was criminal.

It's a miracle we're only 2 down, slightly worrying performance.

 

[Baleforce]

we've been brick, but still nowhere near as bad as that game under Poch

 

[djp82]

Nothing to lose now. Give Donley 45 mins

This ! Free hit now 2-0 down. Him Philips and or Dorrington . Can’t be as bad as first 45.

This has been as equally poor as what we’ve seen last few seasons under previous managers.

We could be level on another day. Next goal crucial and all that. Some changes at half time too maybe.. But if we get it to 2-1 I can see us winning it still

 

[monkeybarry]

Well, that was brick

 

[fernadez]

PEH goes too deep too often, which leaves a gaping hole in the middle - the attack can't be exprcted to close that up otherwise we'd be 11 men innour own third all game

I counted 5 times we were hit on the break and he was the only one in some sort of position.

Presumably you mean a day that we turn up?

 

[Glenda's Legs]

Phew. Not sure that's the right reaction to being 2-0 down but that was a hard watch. Ange, do your thing.

 

[Legohamster]

Get Holberg/Royal off at HT

 

[Dr Rosenrosen]

We are just being hushed off the ball so easily.....what is going on??!

Too much Christmas pudding.

 

[Hotshot-Tottenham]

Ugh. Terrible.

 

[IulianSteaua]

Can't blame Royal for trying, but he isn't a CB and that is clear for everyone to see.

 

[Jordinho]

Lo Celso for anyone in that midfield at HT. Hell, I'd even put on Dier for Royale to get some calmness at the back.

 

[DeanoAustin]

Dreadful. I don’t think any of our players have been particularly brick but all of them are 5 out of 10 bar Vicario who has kept the score respectable.

Brighton have been very good. Pressed us well to stop us playing out, played some very good football to get through us and dropped balls over our defensive line at the right time.

We’re being completely outplayed but, miraculously, we’re still in the game. Time for Ange to earn his money.

 

[fernadez]

Watch West Ham roll over for 15 minutes to cheer myself up now.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Presumably you mean a day that we turn up?

Yes.
Now let's see if Ange can effect any meaningful change in the dressing room

 

[SpurMeUp]

We could be 4-5 down. Yet we could have scored 2-3 as well. Johnson clear through - craps it. He could have squared the ball if he didn't fancy the shot.

Sarr almost scores a header. Son with a few openings. Many promising areas to cross from not finding our forwards.

Can we get some energy, sharpness and belief second half?
