Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace

Very fortunate...we could or should have been 1 down a minute earlier

 

Kulusevski

 

1-0! Still no shot on target though

 

This **** actually works

 

**** YES

 

Lucky lucky lucky, but wil take it

 

Very lucky there ... twice ... we are living very dangerously

 

But I'd still take him over Emerson FFS!

 

Shhhhhh my friend or everyone will try it

 

This is going to be a long 35 minutes!!

 

This might sound weird, but was Maddison trying to make an OG happen?

If it was a square ball it was behind Sonny and there were two defenders between him and Richy
If it was a shot it was more likely to go out for a throw-in than a goal kick

However, if he was chucking it into the mixer in the hope of a lucky bounce or deflection...

 

Nope. Perfect OG opportunity.
6 yd cross and the defender is in the centre of the box.

Palace will have to come out and attack now.

 

I’d be tempted to get Bissouma off. We need him for Chelsea and he’s a prime candidate to receive a booking whilst “tactically” breaking up any attacks that palace try to throw at us.

 

You could argue they have done that better than us so far!

 

That is not saying much though, is it.

 

That passage of football just summed up how negative palace are. Losing 1-0 and no attempt to close us down. I would have just carried on passing it around the back if they are going to use those tactics the rest of the game

 

Schlupp subbed off

Oh no, now who's going to kick us for the rest of the match? other than Ayew, or Edouard, or Lerma...

 

Ange is so proactive with subs ... can think of another manager we've had that has done this tbh

 

Hughes still on as well

 

great minds, Ange. Great minds.
