Lambert had quite a few very good touches like against sunderland he doesn't fit into pochettino's system and his heading hasn't been as good as it has been. He's still just about our best player and I would persist with him in the side until he fits in he will get us more goals than anyone else like last season.
Not just Webb but all the officials were dreadful. Webb having to correct the linesman for that throw in summed it up really, they were useless. I'm not at all using that as an excuse, Norwich winning was probably a fair result, but they didn't do us any favours that's for sure.
No sure, I get this, and in the main I agree. With Clyne and Shaw in the team, a lot of attacking threat is gained on the flanks. I'm just amazed at the meltdowns going on as a result of a game that actually, we could have won. There seems a lack of understanding that on some occasions we will just play poorly.
I hope the international break will give some of our players the opportunity to shake off those niggles Clyne and Shaw are crucial in turning us from solid to dangerous
Exactly, I'm sure Norwich will beat better teams than us this season, and we will beat better teams than Norwich. It's a long season, we will have a few off games.
On a positive note, it's a good time to have an international break (as long as our players return injury free!) - the team will have time to analyse their mistakes and should hopefully come back stronger.
It's not that it's the fact we look incapable of scoring more than 1 goal a game (and this has carried on from last season - 9 games since we last scored more than 1 goal excluding cups).
After this result, maybe Pochittino will realise we are lacking in width down both flanks and will address this in the last few days of the window. It is early days though and the team are still trying to gel. Certainly not time to hit the panic button.
This was an evenly balanced match where the home team won by a single goal. Although I find it strange that we haven't scored more in three games, it is just three games into the season. Glad to see most on here are holding on to their sanity.
Fairly even game but I reckon we just edged it OT/ What the **** have you done to your kit ? Your red and white stripes with black shorts was a classic, no offence but that red kit sucks
Perhaps we should do something like go out and buy an Italian international striker or something..........oh......... Look, I'm being tongue in cheek, but we could (should) have had 3 against Sunderland. We could have had a couple today. Very soon, some team is going to get a tonking. We have a new spine, new shape, we need to give it time to gel.
Disappointing result today. Think we are missing that bit of pace up front, something which Norwich had in Redmond today. Hopeful of another addition.
We have been talking about giving someone a tonking for ages...I'm beginning to accept this won't happen in the League. West Ham lost today as well...let's hope we enjoy our home advantage.
