OMT: Tottenham Hotspur v Southampton

Lloris' kicking is so **** sometimes.

 

that was actually a good corner!

 

Good closing down from Lamela which forces a balls up. Nearly got another decent chance out of it.

 

Another decent quick attack.
Crowd need a trip to Specsavers.

 

Good yellow by Siggy there

 

Why don't we just give them the ball back for free kicks? Woeful.

 

Stupid yellow for Sigurdsson. Chadli on for him later, probably.

 

Why was siggy yellowed and demeles mugger got sod all

 

Lamela still operating on Italian time.
Loads of offsides. Where's Defoe?

 

Sorry, but Lamela is woeful and Ericsson not much better. We need more from our midfield today.
Get Holtby on at least for the 2nd half.

 

"Lamela still operating on Italian time."

And Serie A challenges. Still not up to PL standard when the barges come in.

 

Ref playing the advantage which doesn't come, then giving a non-foul to cover his mistake. Poor.

 

Danny got lucky there

 

And is there anyone who thinks that Rose is the answer at LB???

 

Lamela got lucky with no card there

 

"And is there anyone who thinks that Rose is the answer at LB"

But I keep getting told that defending is not so important for LBs in the "modern game" .

 

Mixed half. Looked good in parts, awful in others, but largely competitive, at least.

 

Positives...pretty even half....working hard...good goal...good comeback

Negatives...rose and eriksen look off the pace, we look brittle at the back,

 

Pretty scrappy tbh, but at least we're trying to get forward quickly and get bodies in the box.

 

Equal quantities of fear and triumph. Now I remember what it's like to support Spurs.
