One positive of note today... GKN has a part to play and could be critical for us. Bloody hope Poch gives the kid a chance.
Everyone has said everything of note. But the injuries...! The human body cannot sustain the high pressing game when there are so many games to play, especially using the same players.
So true. The attacking threat from the bench was very limited today. Going to be a real problem on Thursday if, as is likely, Alli is out of the game.
I wouldn’t be too hard on Llorente. Ok, he played **** today, but considering he hardly ever gets any game time it’s no wonder he’s not match sharp.
Yeah, you expect it from Smith since he's Arsenal but Tyler is weirdly furious whenever Spurs are on, even for a United fan. Then we have Alex Scott who's ex-Arsenal ladies, Souness and Jamie as the Liverpool pundits. They even mentioned in commentary how there was a lot of Fulham/Spurs overlap yet they couldn't find anyone to do some punditry?
And now here's a few excerpts of what the lunatic fringe were saying on Twitter during the match Fulham go 1-0 up Don’t worry levy, we don’t need any signings - AlfieButler20 Nice one Levy, well ****ing done - Steveo28288 Fulham have a goal ruled out for offside Are u watching Daniel levy. Buy some ****inng players - DazJudge1 Sign someone - camthfc Something about the person who owns Tottenham and being a stingy mf... seem to come to mind - chiefkaref, in response Didnt levy say the stadium project had no bearing on the team budget or did I mis read or hear it well whats in the pot FFS how can we not buy anyone last window now this one. I cannot take anymore excuses get it sorted Levy and spend some money - WHL01 Half Time If only we had a rock in midfield who could glide past players, win a tackle, drive the team forward and offer confidence to the team... oh - taylorlouie5, apparently forgettinbg the past six months of Dembele being a shadow of his former self Sell lloris lamela and llorente - spurslad2018, because selling even more players is the answer apparently You forgot Trippier and Davies - ajayi_calvin in response, because selling even more players is definitely the way forward Sign someone ffs - georgetrewin17, believing that someone could be brought on in the second half apparently Which painting did Lewis buy with the dembele money? - 11_Rn The eriksen money in the summer will help for that and many more - 11_Rn again, deciding that countless posts about paintings make him look clever And there’s more with the £25m for alderwerild - totspur3, wanting to join in with being oh-so-clever If you don’t do something soon Daniel Levy, your fans will quit 100%. Because you can’t just let us in pain week by week. If you don’t have the money then you are just not the right boss of this club. For Tottenham’a future ‘sell the club to a rich Chinese or an Arabic. - JyThis Poch needs to get his head out of his ass. Or If I was Dele, son or Kane I would leave. You can’t compete with Liverpool and MC with this crap bench. Go to a team that wants to compete for trophies. Not a team that just wants to tread water - INDsoulman41 I support Arsenal now, you can't hurt me anymore. - Diamond__Lights I hope Uncle Joes fancy yacht is commandeered by Somalia pirates - Sads3110 Dele makes it 1-1 Eriksen will leave our club. He’s too good for these greedy good for nothing loser owners of ours. LEVY OUT! - RajaKha35012207 Rose hits the crossbar Don't let this distract you from the underlying fact ... This squad has problems Levy is pretending don't exist. And that Mousa Dembele sale is an absolute disgrace ... I'm not even a Spurs fan and it pissed me off. - chrisbaybe Dier replaces Lamela I thought we wanted a goal - georgiapearl21 Poch is legit the worst manager when it comes to game management - jakeherst14 Nice positive, attacking change - FPLdepression GKN replaces Dele Please sign someone - Alderweireldx I'm ready to kill myself I swear - AmpayChupe Winks makes it 2-1 embarrassing bragging about a performance like that we only got a result because fulham are dreadfull an absolute cannon fodder i dont hold much hope for thursday or the next few games youre obviously a plastic fan - jackwinks1 Full Time Pleased as f**k to win, Winks and Rose were class, but we will be lucky to get top 6 unless we sign a decent striker & another CM. ENIC, either sell up or sign someone. The value of the club you clearly plan to sell will be far less if we aren’t in Europe. - White_Hart_Spur Weve got clubs hovering around our manager & players, if we don't invest why on earth do we expect the likes of Toby to commit long term? The players & Poch have proved how valuable they are, back them & back them big before we slip back into a mid table team - _SW2_ Regardless of the result, honestly I wouldn't mind if we Poch or Kane decide to go if Levy doesn't buy in January. I want the best for the club, but these two have been loyal when it meant the most. They deserve the best, and if Levy can't give them that... - sparesly9 Why can't we buy a decent striker. Struggling since last ten years. - VipulV2304 Digging in as completely depleted...4 top scorers out, Dembele pointlessly sold for pennies and an academy bench! Levy you tight fisted git time to back up your statement last month ‘our transfer budget not effected by the stadium’, sadly don’t believe it but COYS - RasbashC
He is certainly not PL match sharp. You could see the split second delay in most of his positioning that meant his scoring attempts were poorly taken.
