Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City

That all started with Dele trying a flick in midfield that Son didn't read. And ended up with Doherty not picking his man at the far post.
Can't say conceding was expected, but the mistakes weren't a revelation...

 

Dele lost the ball, Dier out of position, Doherty lost his man, Lloris should’ve done better.

Made that so easy for them.

 

Why did Alli dawdle on the ball for so long? Had two choices and made neither.

 

I take no joy in saying it but Alli has done himself few favours this evening

 

Can we just get Dele off now, please? The charity work is done. Play him any longer and PSG and co will lose interest.

Get Vinigoal on for him and Lamela for Lucas. Hopefully he won’t break down in 25 mins.

 

Lamela on for Alli and Sissoko for Moura.

 

So Vinicius won’t even come on. What an absolute ****ing joke.

Hojbjerg, Winks and Sissoko in midfield... Honestly pathetic from Jose. Getting quite sick of this tbh.

 

What does Vinicius need to do to get on the fecking pitch ????

 

Be **** it would seems. It’s working for Dele and Lucas.

 

2-1. Davies with one of his rare shots. Great finish.

 

I so want Dele to succeed but if I was his coach he would do my nut in when he loses the ball, he does the little jump ,flaps his hands like a rag doll and if you're lucky he will half heartedly chase back , sorry Dele you're gone

 

No idea how Sissoko has got on and Vinicius isn’t on.

Also not to labour this point as there have been many bad performances from us tonight but the ref is giving us nothing.

 

Davies with a low rocket! Bailing Jose out big time there.

 

I've no idea why Davies doesn't shoot more often. He seems to hit them with great venom and accuracy whenever he does.

 

Needed that from Davies, hate the kit, I bet you lot have already slagged off the kit to fek anyway.

 

Powell replaces Brown. Didn't do a lot.

 

Nice hit from Davies, he can catch them and one has finally gone in for him from range.

Too many players in this squad going hiding though. None of our midfielders apart from GLC or NDombele are comfortable receiving the ball under pressure. Doherty is concerning as a signing. Sanchez looks increasingly like a lost cause.

 

Kane blazes one over from 30 yards. He's no Ben Davies, is he?

 

I like the kit but I must have been one of the few who brought the brown and gold kit

 

Imho we need to accept Sanchez will not achieve his potential with us and Dele will not regain his form with us and move both of them on.
Dele on loan, Sanchez permanently
