Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United

As always, to the away support.

 

0-0 HT. Incredibly frustrating and below par performance.
The system isn't working well and we often have Kane out wide and Moura up top, which is backwards.
Lots of players not looking 100% and an obvious penalty denied. Standard.

 

At least we are not losing but that was terrible. No composure in anything...Moura the best player.

 

Eriksen, Kane and deli 2 seconds off the pace. Fortunately so is Pogba, and Lukaku is doing his best Darren Bent impersonation. But there is a warning, even Darren Bent scored eventually.

 

We were poor for about 38 mins. Utd should’ve been 1-0 up through Rose’s sloppy back pass. Not sure on the pen, one of those where if it’s given for you it’s just, if it’s against you it’s unjust.

Gotta massively up our game in the second half if we wanna get something from this.

 

Clear penalty denied again but who's surprised? Kane booked for a good tackle too.

Think we shaded it but too many mistakes in the final third, Kane in particular has played a number of slack passes and moved into traffic trying to wrong foot defenders. Speaking of mistakes, Danny's making plenty of them. It's a shame as he was so reliable for us but he looks half the player these days.

Pleased with Moura though, really making things difficult for United, if Alli steps it up in the second half we should create a lot more.

 

Eriksen and Dele need to up their games - and the defence better sort itself out as it's giving me heart failure.
Lucas causing them big problems with his direct running.
Hugo definitely has something in his mind and United out to unsettle him.

We're still in this and surely have to improve this half!!

 

This is where poch needs to have a go at half time or change formation or bring on a sub

 

Sorry mate - that was a stonewall penalty.....

 

Finished that first half poor-ly.

 

After the day I have had and this lot manage to make it worse

Bloody hell, mate, even Alan Smith said it's a pen

You have to look at Jones' leg, it moves away from the natural path of his run and into Moura, it's pretty clear imo.

 

Can't afford to start the 2nd half slowly - awful half in my opinion from both sides could really go either way definitely wont finish goalless

 

Yep, these replays have now changed my mind. Didn’t notice the leg tangle, thought it was just a heavy shoulder.

 

That is a penalty all day long. I just hope the referee tries to level things up this half although you know that he won’t

 

Have you borrowed clattenburgs glasses

 

You have to wonder ref costs per year for man u
The pen and the Harry ridiculous booking were outrageous

 

Sunk about 6 cans so I’ve probably got Clattenburg vision lol.

 

Seen it again to, the massive beetroot just crashes into Moura. Unbelievable it wasn't given the ref had a clear view.

 

Their bench will make the breakthrough and we haven't got an answer
