Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton & Hove Albion

Wishing you a VARy Merry Christmas.

 

2 attempts and none on target...in 26 mins...mmmmmm

 

The Jose rot has set in already, depressing

 

Come on, be fair....it's Lo Celso's fault.....

 

0-1

Is anyone surprised

 

Winks gets booked for not touching the striker, Brighton score from the resulting free kick.

 

Try to remember that Mourinho could fix our defensive issues.....but only by ruining our attacking prowess.

 

To concede from a free kick given for a blatant dive?

The only surprise is that it isn't Dean or Twatkinson with the whistle

Spurs... 4 attempts 1 on target in 42 mins at home

Brighton 5 attempts 3 on target in 42 mins away.

That makes 2 attempts on target at home in 1 and a half matches.

Good to see our manager with a winning mentality

 

Not gone today as I’ve got family round. Great choice so far. Can’t say I’m surprised either when I saw no creativity yet again.

 

Why didn't VAR check it?

 

Their defender got between 2 of ours

Let’s blame Jose

 

Is anyone surprised that we have no creativity with Winks and Sissoko.

Dele is having an awful game and Kane and Lucas can’t play together.

Lucas and winks off and eriksen and lo celso on.
If we start the second half as we finished the first we aren’t getting anything out of this

 

It's the same **** week in and week out.

We're defensively a rabble and we can't keep the ball or dictate play.

Brighton are well organised and defensively durable. Everything that we're not.

The answer............?

Probably to bring back Eric Dier.

 

Pardew just said on Amazon "he didn't actually touch the player". Why don't the pundits use the correct terminology. Cheat.

As for the disallowed goal, looks all scientific with the line on the pitch, but where the line is positioned is NOT scientific, it's based on a subjective opinion of when the ball is played forward.

 

Everyone knows that Sissoko/Dier and Sissoko/Winks is a bad idea yet Maureen continually does it.

2 sttenpts on target in 1 and a half matches at home is appalling. Chelsea had lost 4 out of their previous 5 games. Brighton are not great. So that stat is even worse.

It aint the losing ... it is the atrocious football.

Maureen is fully responsible for this.

 

The lack of quality in our passing is frightening. I refuse to believe that a collection of seasoned internationals <dg> can seriously be this bad in possession. And tactically we are an absolute mess. But I'll save that rant for FT as it is aimed directly at our manager.

 

Coco is back

NBC also agree that there was no contact. Will the diver get a retrospective ban.

 

Var dont check yellow cards
