    Well that was awful.

    Our defence look like rabbits and there's more creativity in a puddle than in our midfield today.

  2. We'd now be 3 down.

    This is a team that currently sits 9th in league division two ffs!

    Truly appalling half - when Sissoko is our best player something is clearly wrong - Time for Poch to earn his corn looks like we wll have to use Son & Alli asap for Foyth & Dembele

    Not wanting a defeat, but in a way glad of the HT score.
    As I said the other day, tis time for Pochettino to be
    laying down the law to certain players who have not
    been fronting up recently and with the February
    fixtures coming.

    If you cannot do the job here, regardless of the conditions,
    make other plans for the Juventus games.

    What do we have that they don't? I'd say it was players like Dele and Son. We've picked the least creative midfield that I can remember and decided to try and out-muscle a team that would struggle against better players.

    Mauricio Pochettino, this is on you. Sort it.

    I have seen some **** halves of football by spurs in my 30 years of supporting them, but I think that tops the lot.
    I can’t think of one single positive. Well only that it could well be 2 or 3 to Newport.
    I wish I was the manager for this half time. There would definitely be a few f, b’s and c’s being chucked about.
    They are being completely outfought which is the worst thing about it. Such a poor attitude from the lot of them. If I did my job as badly as they just have I would expect to be sacked!
    I would take a replay with both hands right now

    Nothing to do with the team and everything to do with arrogance from EVERY OUTFIELD player apart from KWP.
    Newport have shown greater heart and desire and as far as I am concerned that is unacceptable.
    Dire is shocking matched by Foyth and Dembele.
    Well played Newport

    You know we do like to stick the knife into Sissoko, mostly because of his price tag but frankly Llorente is far more useless.

  13. So, the only half-decent player in the first half gets subbed! Appreciate its to move Verts to left back but for me that sends out the wrong message. There are some ‘names’ who need to be pulled after that pisspoor effort!

    Totally agree. It’s his first touch which is generally so poor which is the biggest a surprise

    It’s the fact he’s spent most of the match walking that ****s me off. At least Sissoko shows energy.

  17. Llorente is a bigger waste of space than Pav and Loldado put together!

    It takes real scouting talent to find someone worse than those two. Hats off!

    On the plus side, I hear Los Ladrones are looking at tapping-up elite coach Jurgen Norbert Klopp instead...
