Soldado and Janssen have got eight goals and five assists between them this season. Anyone want to work out how old Llorente will take to reach that based on his current form?
Say, 38 PL games a season, plus 12 in various cups. That's 50 games a season to score in.........How about 30 years, if he starts every game?
More importantly, why the hell was a resident of Middle Earth in the stands? please log in to view this image
The worrying thing was most of our team didn't perform today not just llorente. Pochettino needs to kick some arse in the dressing room after that .if you can't motivate yourself for a cup game you don't deserve to wear the shirt.
Meanwhile, over on Twitter, Man Utd fans are giving it large about how Harry Kane "only" scored one against League Two opposition. Remind me how many Alexis Sanchez scored against League Two opposition last night?
Hope we don’t get derailed by Madrid being interested in the boss. Mind you if he goes there he will be lucky to last one season. If we can sign Mahrez, Zaha and Sessegnon and sell SIssoko,Lamela, Llorente and Rose to help pay for it before deadline we’ll be fine !!!!!!
Ive calmed down a bit over the last few hours because i was seething with that Spurs display. Every player bar Foyth should be ashamed with themselves. Credit to Newport who were fantastic and got what they richly deserved a lucrative big day out at Wembley.
Half a league,half a league,half a league onward, Into the valley of death rode the Spurs. How the hell did we survive?
We survived because when you look at the game dispassionately Newport were not better than us. A draw was a fair result.
Awful performance, guilty parties in particular were Llorente, Wanyama, KWP, Dier and Trippier. Llorente is proving to be a downgrade on Janssen, he appears to be here to top up his pension and nothing more. Wanyama was dreadful, way off the pace. KWP is not a left back and Trippier has regressed massively this season. Sissoko I thought was one of our better players on the night, but his brain just does not work quick enough for him to be good enough, time and time again he does so much good work only to freeze at the vital moment. Transfer business that needs urgently addressing either now or the summer is upgrades on Trippier, Sissoko and Llorente.
Foyth didn't start well, but got better the longer the game went on. KWP did ok and was arguably our best player of what was a dreadful first half. Vorm was excellent throughout with impeccable handling and distribution. And Dele, Sonny (and Ben) improved things immensely. But the rest of them........
