OMT Spurs - Fulham

[LincsSpur]

Ally McCoist is so annoying. He says something then repeats it with emphasis.
"What a save.
What
A
Save"

its the well worn cliches that annoy me

“letting him know that he’s there”
for instance

Say something original or don’t bother

 

[Baleforce]

Despite Sissoko's performance, I cant see Jose changing him given that we're 1-0 and changing him will probably weaken us defensively. He's killing a lot of attacks though which could have put us 2 up

I’ll be surprised if he’s not moved back into a defensive position in the second half.

Winks hasn’t done much, although Hojbjerg could maybe do with a rest.

 

[Bullet]

Sissoko is awful in this position. AWFUL.

 

[LincsSpur]

Need a 2nd early in the 2nd half because the match is far from done and dusted

really we should be three up

 

[Yiddo]

Son doing his best Bale impression tonight.

 

[Pirate55]

HT1-0. Not vintage stuff. Son and Sissoko well below par. We really should give Dele a chance sooner rather than just a few minutes at the end.

 

[Daisuk]

Regi's been good. Everyone else a bit half tilt atm.

Did you not notice Ndombele pinging passes around like some sort of love child of Pirlo and Modric?! fudge me, that guy can play!

 

[Mosquito_Coasting]

Do think we are attacking a bit more though it was a slow start. Next half is a big test, can't sit back like we did against Wolves. Fulham are there for the taking, particularly at left back.

The Son and (second) Kane headers would have been called offside. Sissoko has been incredibly poor on the ball. I dunno if he is still on the naughty Covid step but Lamela really should be playing.

 

[ShipOfTheseus]

Sissoko is awful in this position. AWFUL.

Flashbacks to his first season.

 

[LincsSpur]

Winks not being particularly good at anything is starting to annoy me.

Could have stuck Sissoko in the middle and played Alli.

would always start Sissoko ahead of Winks

 

[Mosquito_Coasting]

I don't think Dele would have thrived out there either. Lamela for me is the one who should have started.

 

[scaramanga]

Quality of players in front of him may have an impact

That was the question raised at the time. I think it was Ted Knutson who posted his radar and asked if it was possible SCBC were really that bad.

 

[NoLimits01]

Flashbacks to his first 3 seasons.

FTFY [emoji3166]

 

[Lemonade Money]

Thoroughly enjoyed that. Sissoko playing well in an unfamiliar position too.

 

[Sandman]

Sorry you don't also notice these things when he plays centrally?

Well yeah. But he work rate, tracking back and defensive duties make him serviceable in that position. Wide right in an attacking position just highlights his lacking.

 

[Bullet]

By the way... and I know this is pretty random for a match thread... but if your computer freezes or the mouse isn't responding or part of your screen freezes, try Ctrl+Shift+Win+B, it has saved my river a few times tonight already

 

[ShelfLife]

Did you not notice Ndombele pinging passes around like some sort of love child of Pirlo and Modric?! fudge me, that guy can play!

Awesome talent. That sort of stuff comes natural to him. Feel like he can step it up a bit here though.

 

[billyiddo]

I’ll be surprised if he’s not moved back into a defensive position in the second half.

Winks hasn’t done much, although Hojbjerg could maybe do with a rest.

How's the AVB game going?

 

[Pirate55]

Flashbacks to his first season.

Agreed. It really isn't his position.

 

[scaramanga]

Sissoko is awful in this sport. AWFUL.

Yep
