Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace

If Micky is any kind of a risk we should take him off. We don’t need him out for a long time as we will be ****ed

 

Odsonne Edouard is nearly in again, if you completely ignore the cynical shove he gives to Cristian Romero.

That's a booking, BBC dickhead

 

The ref needs to get his yellow card out.

 

He will do when we respond in kind!

 

it’d be nice if the ref would do something about Edouard’s late “tackles”.

 

Édouard commits another foul and VdV doesn't look good
Persistent fouling by Palace not being punished.

 

Palace away is always such a **** game. They are such anti football. I appreciate they are missing 2 of their best forward players but it’s a tough watch

 

VdV pace is truly amazing

 

I don't mind teams being defensive but think it's a joke to let teams rotate fouling.

 

Gone a bit Portu-ball.
Need to move the ball much faster.

 

Now I'm not going to suggest that it's a coincidence that players seem to not get booked for reckless and dangerous fouls on our players ever since Norbert pissed and moaned

...actually, yes I am

 

This is gonna be one of those evenings isn’t it? We’re due a defeat, and we don’t look like scoring at the moment. No shot on target in 42 mins, despite 71% of possession.

edit: 78% now.

 

Palace are horrible. The ref is ****.and we aren't firing.
Not a great evening so far.

Except I reckon we have got ourselves one bloody good keeper!

 

We’ll do em soon

 

Final ball so poor. Richarlison **** as usual, kulusevski non-existent and Maddison probably fed up of being kicked off the park.

 

I really really really really wish Richarlison could play football

 

this has been a notoriously tricky fixture for us in recent years. It’s gonna take something very different to cause palace problems. They’re a well drilled side.

 

Oh ****
