Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Norwich City

[Left on the Shelf]

Feck me, how depressing is that, even though we're winning!
Some positives, but defensively shambolic and disjointed in attack.
Dele prancing about with unconvincing flicks here and there. Or do we still have his cousin?

But that floppy blonde-haired twat Cantwell deserves a slap...

Can anyone remember the last time Dele looked match fit?

It was that run of games in November where he was scoring, wasn't it?

 

["Thanks for that Brian"]

Another half like this for Skipp and he’ll have given Jose something to think about for Burnley.

Having someone who can run, pass and tackle in there is a big improvement. It's a shame that he's having to do the work of three but he's game and got a great engine.

But we have that

...no, wait, I misread that: we have someone who can run, someone who can pass, and someone who can tackle

Our defence gets done by pace every time...fullbacks always get twisted

Verts has slowed down so much

 

[humanbeingincroydon]

Our defence gets done by pace every time...fullbacks always get twisted

And that makes no sense: Aurier's got pace and Sanchez is pretty quick (while Dier used to be the fastest member of the squad, back when he had muscle mass rather than mere mass) so at least one of them should be able to recover, after all Walker and Rose were able to recover from their brainfarts in the past

Why Bergwijn? Injured or sh!te substitution?

 

[KingHotspur]

Least he hasn’t waited to concede before making the first sub tonight

 

[KingHotspur]

Wow that passage of play was appalling.

Spurs free kick in the Norwich half, ten passes later and it’s at the feet of Vorm.

That is unforgivable.

 

[KingHotspur]

Get Parrott on, he needs at least 20mins to make an impact, putting him on with less than 10 to go would be a waste imo.

 

[deedub93]

Moura injured? Is Chirpy fit for the Burnley match?

 

["Thanks for that Brian"]

Lamela does 20 mins.

Parrott does 4.

 

[Spurlock]

Such poor decision making when we attack

 

["Thanks for that Brian"]

Skippy.....a boy doing a whole load of men's jobs.

 

[deedub93]

Why is Deli's grandfather still on?

 

[Spurlock]

Lamela does 20 mins.

Parrott does 4.

Lamela is better than Parrot

This game isn’t won yet...do you want to rely on the kid? I dont

 

[paultheplug]

It’s Coco time

 

[The Changing Man]

This is terrible, Norwich will score, looking at the probable last 8 even we scrape through tonight we won't get through the quarter final

 

[paultheplug]

Parrott for Dele now

 

[deedub93]

Is Deli self isolating?
