Only got to see the second half, but thought we were brilliant. How refreshing to see us play on the front foot. Some of the creativity and one touch passing was sublime. Even Neville had to compliment us through gritted teeth Bissouma and Sarr are looking like a fantastic pairing. Maddison such a danger, too. Thought Son put in a big shift second half and looked much improved. Vicario did everything he was required to do, so that should keep the doubters quiet for a week, at least. Porro looked dangerous and linked up really well. The only one who doesn’t look like he fits the system at this point… is Richarlison. Held the ball up ok at times, but he just looks like he’s gonna struggle to get involved.
Give some of the more gifted players their heads and that's what you get. Are you watching Antonio... are you watching the 'special other one'. .
I think Richarlison just needs to score. He is aproper centre foreward which is almost old fashioned. He can be a nuscince which is good for the team.
Everyone stepped up in the second half. A wonderful performance and a joy to behold. We bossed them out of the park! I loved how all the fans stayed behind to applause the players and Big Ange!
I missed the first 20 minutes or so, but what I saw was Spurs take control and dominate with a young team that excels at touch and passing. More of that, please! But find a couple of new forwards, will ya? The only three players who really didn't look like scoring today were Son, Richarlison and Vicario. And I'm not so sure about Vicario.
Even a blind squirrel occasionally comes up with an acorn. That said, a big two matches into the first season, Postecoglou, Sarr and Udogie look like brilliant acquisitions. Maddison and Bissouma were excellent buys as well, but they were known PL quantities.
Ange’s biggest challenge is up next, following a great performance and win against one of the big boys with a win against a team we should be beating! Beat Bournemouth and we can start to believe.
Rapeson Greenwood, Cristiano Rapenaldo, Andrew Taint, Thomas Partey, Benjamin Mendy, Andrew Rosindell YOUR BOYS TOOK ONE HELL OF A THRASHING
Sarr is a really top prospect. He was everywhere and even seemed to get stronger as the game went on. Bissouma we knew / hoped would advance from the high level he already showed at Brighton. If that's going to be his level then we are in for a treat! Maddison looks like he has been playing for us for years, not days. His link up play around the box was a delight. They are my 3 standouts, but frankly I'm not going to be critical of any of the starting 11. Even Richy. No, we need some goals from him, but as Spurf said, he worked his socks off and was holding / feeding the ball well in the last 20. If I'm going to be harsh on anyone, Hojbjerg appeared to be well off the pace of his teammates, even though they had been running themselves silly for 75 minutes! I doubt we will keep too many clean sheets, but I could watch football played like that day in day out!
Udogie with his no look back heels and his attitude, the lad has not turned 21 , loving it ,Paratici must be sitting in the stands watching him and Sarr plus the rest of this squad that he's brought in with a massive smile
