*** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace FC ***

I'm sick of this guy. He can't change a thing can he. We are getting bossed. Does he alter it. No.

Full backs high and their three at the back with wing backs is just slicing it apart.

He plays basically our reserves but expects them to play his suicide football.

Keep the defenders in a line. Tell the full backs only to push up when we have possession in a good area. Let the midfield fight. Our wingers are not even involved. They need to fight more to turn over possession.

Palace should be three up. Shocking attempt at tactics. Their right wing is up against a disinterested Spence and a slow Davies.

Disgusting stuff.

Agreed. Ange needs to change it, not simply stare

We make eight changes and Palace play their strongest available team, what on earth was you expecting to happen?

And I'd take this every day of the week, keep our starters for Bilbao out of this - look at Kulu FFS....

I think the the thinking is it doesn't really matter about the changes. We've been seeing inept and tactically inept performances all season no matter the selections. Changes or no changes it doesn't make any difference.

The coach to have some tactical awareness? Instead of getting ripped apart from the first whistle and just accepting it instead of tweaking things, maybe get Spence to sit for 5mins instead of sitting on the halway line watching Bentancur trying to cover the massive gap behind him, I'm no coach but I'm pretty sure he's allowed to adapt and changes things mid game.

At least not play the same suicidal tactics you do with our starters.

Do I want the first team to play. No.

Do I expect to win. No.

Do I expect him to understand he is playing our reserves and young plays and alter his tactics accordingly? YES
 
This game demonstrates how ange just wants the boys to run hard to cover the gaps that appear after the forward press or the high line fails.

No wonder we get so many injuries. I don't think he will ever be regarded for a top league again.

This all we can at the moment. Arrogant of you to think we can play better and we don't want to. This is why we are 16th, we belong here.

So buy that logic the manager is doing a good job and we should be happy we're not going to be relegated.

What is happening is nothing to do with the personnel and all to do with the tactics.
