    Agree. Far too often one of the centre backs has the ball with no pressure and everyone in front is static.

    we just don’t click as a team, no matter who plays, or who we play against. You’d think we’d see an improvement against a side that aren’t of premier league quality, but it’s just as bad once again.

    This is their reserve team as well, we can’t forget that. Not a single effort on target. I could have played in goal for Coventry tonight it would have made no difference

    You nailed it with this comment. It looks like there is zero communication between the players. Bergval seems to be the only guy looking to get on the ball and make something happen.

    We look like a group of park players who rocked up for the first time together and started playing....

    Edit. That's unfair on park players...

    Brentford will turn us over on Saturday. They must be licking their lips

    Commentators have it right. No composure in the final third and constantly giving it away.

    That’s been a torrid half, I still think Spurs will go on to win this game though

    Absolutely appalling first half. We have had one shot off target the entire game.
    Ange really is walking a fine line right now. If it doesn’t improve he is going to be under massive pressure

    crazy isn’t it.
    Tactically something needs to change. We may as well not have a striker. Solanke must be bored out of his mind. And we seriously need to consider trying something different to Werner and Johnson. Porro at RW instead?

    0-0 HT. Absolutely dreadful performance.
    Invisible midfield, awful wingers and no shots at all.
    Nowhere near good enough.

    Really really poor half. I’d be hauling Bentancur, who needs to be doing more as a senior pro out there, and Sarr, who just isn’t playing himself out of his bad form like this, and whose presence is a bit unnecessary because we’re not getting overrun in midfield.

    Spence at RB, Gray at 6, and Maddison into the midfield for me. Hell I wouldn’t even be shy of hauling Werner for Moore.

    Since December these players have come in for a fair amount of criticism on here:

    Bentancur
    Maddison
    Son

    Amongst others, when three very good players are seemingly struggling for performances for an extended period it’s no longer a player issue in my opinion, it’s a tactical/ system one. It’s been the case for 10+ month now too.

    From a neutral perspective It looks like you're one of the worst clubs left in the competition.
