OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton

[paxtonwolf]

They are mopping up almost everything that gets pumped into the box

 

[Moby]

WTF are we doing lumping fudging crosses in against a team of freakish giants?

Aiming for the lamppost

It can work but these guys eat this up

It’s a perfectly valid tactic. We just need to aim more at his arms.

 

[Bullet]

We need someone to use their brain. Drive into the box, pretend to shoot, cut back inside, dangle a leg, penalty, goal.

Nobody is using their brain, they are just kicking the ball against the wall over and over and over.

 

[Baleforce]

Llorente looking the wrong choice. Their two center backs are cleaning up. We’re far too slow getting forward - allows them too much time to pack the defence.

Mismatch between the selection and the system certainly, he doesn’t want slow lofted balls, he wants to attack across a defender or have it to feet as a pivot.

 

[SpurMeUp]

Alli and Eriksen, as well as Wanyama and Verts, need to drive through the middel and then switch it wide. Create some anarchy.

Might work against the goons, but this team is built around agricultural football.

Tactically I think this is the worst I’ve seen us set up for a long while.

 

[AdamB]

Got to get Moura and Son more central - they're the most likely goalscorers

 

[paxtonwolf]

ffs how did we not score then??

I am beginning to get a bad feeling about this

 

[SpurMeUp]

How did that stay out!?

 

[scaramanga]

Why was Llorente just watching the rebound?

 

[Moby]

I think there’s fudging clingfilm over their goal...

 

[paxtonwolf]

criminal. f#ck all added on for timewasting

 

[ringo]

pass, pass, cross in for Lorente, headed out
rinse, repeat.

Think we may need a different strategy.

 

[Baleforce]

Our Dutchmen both a little excitable and sloppy so far, can’t be getting shots charged down when they are alone in the channel

 

[Legohamster]

Has Son been in the box ?

 

[Robbo]

Brilliant from Dele. Unlucky.

 

[Cochise]

How can the useless clams have only figured one minute of extra time?

 

[SpurMeUp]

What we expected. Shame Dele didn't smash that home. Finger tip save. At least we have Janssen on the bench

 

[thfcsteff]

Patience.

I don't think Brighton can stay focussed like this for the rest of the match. They will tire and we have to be ready.
