Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Bournemouth

Alli continues his 2017/18 form of poncing about on the ball all day rather than making quick, sharp decisions. Another player going backwards sadly.

 

KWP or Sissoko should be starting over him. He’s a total liability now.

 

Both full backs are in fairness. Aurier is a rash challenge away from a card or a poor pass away from a goal.

 

What the **** is that ballboy doing? What a twat. He looks about 30, too.

 

The only positive is that despite how well Bournemouth play, their Achilles heel is that they concede goals. But you have to wonder whether we’ll concede more today...

 

Hate to say it as he has been on fire recently, but Dembele looks either tired or someone starting to believe all the hype about him.

 

I think it all comes down to the psychological factor and raw emotion from the defeat on Wednesday. It will have taken a lot out of the players, and we should have made more changes, IMO

 

The fears I had pre-match are coming to fruition.

Attacking mids impotent, they’re clearly jaded.

Dembele can’t play well in quick succession.

 

Alli needs time on the bench. Bring on Lamela. Also Aurier looks a bit suspect.

 

Whose crossing is worse, Eriksens or Auriers? Tough to call.

 

Kane offside but so much better

 

I could see that Kane was offside before that was played. He had to know, too. Poor.

 

Crazy to think that we have 1 right back who has an excellent cross, but always passes backwards, and another that has a terrible cross but always tries and fails.

 

Kane limping off with the physio. I hope this is not what I feared some weeks ago

 

What a ball by Eriksen, unlucky

FFS Kane

 

Harry has twisted his ankle! This day is going from bad to worse

 

If we lose Kane again, we are well and truly ****ed.

 

And Kane's done. Great. Superb day all round, so far.

 

Yep, ****ed.

 

Kane walks down the tunnel. How many more seasons are we going to go without a decent back up striker? It's ridiculous how much pressure we put on one player for goals.
