***OMT*** Tottenham Hotspur v Man Utd*** Europa League Final Wednesday May 21st, KO 8pm

The facts are this first choice back 5 started the first 9 PL games which included Saudi Sportswashing Machine and Arsenal and we conceded 10 goals (including 3 of those being the nightmare 3 in one half at Brighton). Since then that back 5 have not played together in the league.

That same back 5 has then started all 4 of the QF and semi final legs in the EL. We have conceded two goals in those four games. There is plenty to complain about this season, but you can dress it up any way you want the facts are we don't concede many goals with our first choice back 5 no matter how much you want to portray otherwise....
We do concede plenty of goals with our first choice back 5. And its the nature of the goals to. Real soft goals to drop points early in the season against Leicester and Saudi Sportswashing Machine, which has just kind of set the tone for this season.

We do not look solid, no matter who plays, we always gift high quality chances to the opposition. We do not look capable of squeezing a result out of a game backs-to-the wall when we are being outplayed.

Basically, it doesn't matter who plays out of our current personnel, if we play well, we've got a good chance of winning. We smashed City 4-0 away with Davies and Dragusin in defence. If we play sub par, we lose. Hence why we got shafted 4-0 by Saudi Sportswashing Machine with our first choice defence playing and have lost games or dropped points with stupid errors.

The problem is that it is nigh on impossible to be the dominant game in every PL fixture given the high high standard in this league. Unless you're like peak City levels of quality. So you need to base yourself on a system and personnel that can firstly have a good shot at shutting the other team out, even if you are having one of those days where youre giving the ball away and facing wave after wave of attack.
 
People losing it because Carragher and Neville says we are brick and if we win it it doesnt mean anything and United are much more likely to win than us in the final because it is in their DNA or whatever.

Just, fudge those guys. They are paid to cough up this horsebrick. Just fudge off. Shut up. Neville didn't last more than a few months at Valencia ffs. Don't listen to it. They don't mean brick. Pundits can fudging do one.
Just as Saudi Sportswashing Machine won't...just as Palace won't...yada yada
