**** me
The moaning that has gone on with other teams who have had injuries - your lot being one of the worst (not you personally as haven’t ever heard you moan)
You only needed one player back
Odegaard - to totally turn your form around
Spurs have got everyone out and when they get some of them back - yes I think they will pose a major threat to teams they play

they are scoring for fun - strengthen that defence up and you never know

The way fat Ange sets them up means they are always gonna concede goals, no matter who’s in defence.

The only thing that’s major threat is their suicidal high line.

Yeah I agree
However in VDV they have someone who can get them out of jail for a lot of them
Couple that with a more mobile keeper (Forster is a decent shot stopper but seems to love it on his line to me)
And suddenly a lot of games are flipped
Possibly you guys still beat them but we still managed to concede 3 ?

we shall see when they get close to full strength

think it’s interesting (said this the other day about treatment of Pep) how Ange is taking a real smashing and reported seem to be going in on him yet Pep not getting a rough ride at all
Strange - something odd there imho
 
Southampton with a rare attack stopped because a Fulham player goes down holding his face which last time I checked isn’t the same as a potential (faked) head injury.

Comon u saints

Yet earlier when a Saints went down after getting an elbow in the face the ref played on and told him to getup

Bent AF

Lots of reports comment about Man City being in "relegation form" etc and Pep is being asked about it all the time. The fact he's won a gazillion trophies as recently as a few months ago means it would be odd if people were questioning Pep much at all in my view.

When Klopp had a rough patch at Liverpool he was also given a lot of leeway compared to most as he'd won things already. It's pretty logcal really I'd say.

Think we are missing Konate a lot atm
Proper ****ty challenge that took him out too and cause it was the end of a game it went under the radar

Gomez was superb today, especially in the first half when he seemed to be playing as a DM and was spraying 40-yard passes. Konate is mint, but credit to Gomez who always puts in a shift and never hides.

Weather your a Pep fan (Sucky) or not. The man literally rewrote the tactics book with Barcelona. Yeah he's had the best teams with the most money in each league he's gone to but he's a hell of a manager/coach. Who the hell do you replace him with?????

Agree with your first paragraph but not the second
Press turned on Klopp and never really looked back
Maybe cause he bit and gave them the sound bites I don’t know
Maybe cause he blamed things like ice and wind but Pep has not been treated the same imho
Ange is being jumped on when it’s clear his attack is excellent and his defence is struggling but most of his defence is out injured if not all
Either way not overly fussed been a good day in the office today lol <laugh>

Yeah...... It's not exactly a comparison competition here is it. Pep's ****ing schooled the ugly twat in both countries they've been in <laugh>

Ange is nowhere the level of Pep and Spurs don’t have the finances of City.

Full strength or not, Spurs approach isn’t sustainable. Far too easy to score against and to beat.

Ange will have to adapt or he will lose his job.

Ryan Mason as caretaker manager again soon seems inevitable

He rewrote the tactics book, and the outcome is you now have every team trying to be peak Barcelona whilst actually being peak Tottenham.

It's absolutely mental watching your lot play that high line. It's so easy to get in behind. When you got one back yesterday, Liverpool then went and scored again almost immediately with a simple ball over the top from Alisson straight to Luiz, as simple as it gets.

And this is the problem, it doesn't have to be a Liverpool or any of the top teams to exploit this, it's basic route one football that even a league 2 team can execute.

I do not understand why Fat Ange can't see it. Every other team can and use it to their advantage

Ryan Mason in by March ?

The ball for the 3rd goal was a left-footed punt from Trent to Szobo (people forget that Trent is more than decent with his left foot as well), who flicked it on to Mo, who then returned it to Szobo to slip through Forster's legs. Diaz wasn't involved at all. :emoticon-0108-speec

Must have been one of the other goals then. But Spurs were playing that suicidal high line when they conceded the 3rd

Yeah I mean it metaphorically bro.

I know he sees it, coz it’s what he’s telling them to do.

Dunno why he can’t see how suicidal it is. Is what I mean

But either way, long live Ange <laugh>
