Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

Sherwood bottled it.
He had no faith we could comeback in the tie.
Send out a half arsed team in the second leg.

How can he have this attitude and expect the players to have any desire.
Absolute hypocrite considering what he said about desire and belief.

He scrubs up well, though.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

I thought we played a more patient game today. Not wildly chasing the ball but closing down with a bit more intelligence. Sherwood will make a good manager one day. Maybe with us. He needs experience to refine his abilities.

Alternatively he may have put out a team that he thought would have the balls to get the job done as opposed to the bunch of prima donnas usually in Spurs shirts and they damn well nearly did get it done. Had the ref had the balls to give the penalty when Kane was taken out in the area we would've seen extra time and possibly a win.

We were one minute away from being only the third team to beat Benfica at home in the last two years and all you can do is **** off the manager. FFS go support someone else we don't need fans like you.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

And why would he send out a half arsed team out of choice? What other options did he have? And as this is realistically the only competition we were still in, just what exactly would this achieve?

The team that was playing after the subs was a start.

Had he not dropped Soldado then he may even have had a confident striker to pick too.

Well said.

That's funny. I thought you were berating him for playing two up front. And for being wedded to 442. So, should he have dropped the in form Ade or Soldao or kept playing both of them against Chelsea, Arsnl and Benfica?

Jeez, there is no pleasing some people. Nothing he does or doesn't do will ever please you.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

1. Many on here thought we were going to be murdered 4, 5 or 6 tonight. We weren't.

2. Due to injuries, we started with less than half a side of first teamers. Eriksen was perhaps the only one who might have started instead and he's not 100% fit. And yet the balance and blend of the side looked well thought-through, notwithstanding some awful individual performances from Soldado, Townsend, Siggy and Lennon.

3. We put out a defensive 5 that had never played together - never - and kept one of Europe's most free scoring sides down to a couple of decent chances. Someone must have drilled that defence well.

4. At the same time, we created 2 goals from open play and I would say 5 or 6 decent-to-good chances.

5. What were our tactical shortcomings tonight? Answers on a postcard. And of the 5 goals they scored in the two legs, how many were down to individual Spurs' players mistakes rather than tactical mistakes? I'd say maybe all of them.

6. In the first leg, Sherwood was harshly criticised for playing Kane, and yet we saw tonight that there was logic to it because Kane can do damage. At the time of the sub in the OMT, Sherwood was attacked for the Kane/Soldado sub, and within a few minutes Kane had 2 assists

I don't really want to become a cheerleader for Sherwood on here, but I do think the criticism is getting increasingly unreasonable.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

No one was attacking Sherwood for bringing Kane on. A lot of us were calling for Kane to come on, we just wanted him on for Townsend.

But Townsend went off a couple of minutes later. Same difference.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

But people wanted Kane on as well as a striker. No one was angry at Sherwood for bringing Kane on, so point 6 is invalid. He was criticised in the first leg because Soldado had scored against Cardiff and was dropped.

Really? because we managed a "brave" draw?

Sorry mate, whats the results in the last 10 games?

Almost, brave effort, commendable are all **** sides like Wigan, Palace, West Ham say when they inevitably lose ...

Well said some people on here are pathetic looking for any reason to shoot Tim down, Im very proud of the team tonight, we should have got turned over very easy, but the team put in a great effort and tactically we were spot on. Look at the bench tonight Tim had no options.

A draw with what could be at best described as our third team. No Lloris, Walker, Dawson, Kaboul, Verthongen, Chiriches, Paulinho, Lamela, Capoue and Adebayor and we had three 16 year olds on the bench.

As for the "brave effort" quote yeah that's what Wigan put in in last seasons FA Cup Final, not always a phrase used for losers.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

Sherwood knows he is toast come the end of the season so he is simply enjoying "playing manager" and being the **** of the walk (in his own ego driven head) while he can. Lets amble through till May, say goodbye and good riddance and then start actually trying to build this club up again.

Ok, the last 10 games in reverse order...

1. Matched Arsenal on the day, sucker punched with an early goal that was down to player error
2. Conceded 3 terrible goals to individual mistakes against Benfica at home
3. Matched and perhaps even outplayed Chelsea 11 v. 11 for an hour before a refereeing mistake
4. Decent if uninspiring win against Cardiff
5. Took out Dnipro on a great night
6. Awful display against Norwich
7. Tight loss to Dnipro away, tie eventually won
8. Destroyed Toon
9. Beat one of our nearest rivals, Everton
10. Hull draw away with 62% posession and enough chances to win.

In the previous 7 league games before that, we had 5 wins, 1 loss and 1 draw....which takes us back to the start of Sherwood's reign.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

4 wins, 5 defeats (including Chelsea, Arsenal and Benfica) and a draw.

Think we're now 9 wins, 6 defeats and 3 draws under Sherwood.

Not quite as bad as you're trying to portray.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

Ok, how many wins against teams where we were NOT the favourites?
How many times have WE punched above our weight?
How many games can we say we have actually started and played well for most of the game?

Hard to disagree with this?

About as many as under AVB and 'Arry.

We've been punching above our weight for a good 5 seasons now.
 
Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach

As much as I dislike Sherwood personally and have not been impressed by his lack of managerial ability; he was hamstrung by the team he could put out tonight. However this is a two legged tie and he should be held accountable for the first game.
