Credit when it's due Howe made changes and won a game. Murphy actually made a big difference in the end with his pace.
Yep - don’t think anybody was terribly impressed when Murphy gave it away 5 times in 4 minutes, but he’s there for the assist. Howe we’ve won that I don’t know, was scarily reminiscent of Rafaball mind. Surely we are now better than that?
We got away with one today. Looked more balanced when Tonali came on. But can’t fathom the defensive mind set. We let them play and there was no press? Have we decided to change to avoid injuries?
The back line is the issue .. need schar and botman back...Pope? It's a weird one... are his legs real?
Combination of Spurs not taking chances, then them being dire for the end of the game. Spurs only played well for about 30 mins in second half, they really weren't that good. We might not have pounded them this time, but they were still not all that.
I really wished we’d gone in for Marma to be number 1. But there’s still a lot of cleaning up needed at this club. Think looking at contracts, next summer will be the transformation.
Yeah he was crap but his pace and his unselfishness was key. That was a weird performance but actually think it was tactical and it worked so well done from Howe.
