Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace

[Roo]

I really really really really wish Richarlison could play football

johnson second half, surely?

 

[Left on the Shelf]

One thing's for sure, I wouldn't risk Betancur against these fouling cnuts!

 

[The Changing Man]

Terrible half, anti football from Palace a ref who forgot his cards and our players forgot to come and play. I think Ange will read the riot act and I hope we see Johnson early in the 2nd half.

 

[humanbeingincroydon]

Ah, the ref warned one of their players!

 

[The RDBD]

Woy has done his homework.
Do not be drawn into the final third press,
sit back and defy them to breach the defence.

Spurs need much faster play out to / forward from the flanks.

 

[RRich]

We’re ****e. Going to lose this, it’s just what we do

as the season progresses, palace won’t be the only side to do this against us. We need a decent plan B.

 

[humanbeingincroydon]

The issue is both our wide players have been poor this half, but Deki gets a pass as Richy is this season's lightning rod

That being said, Gil or Johnson for Richy makes the most sense tactically as that would replace the speed we've lost down that flank with Udogie out

 

[Crackermanjack2]

Although it would be disappointing a draw isn’t the worst result. Better that than go into next week’s match on the back of a loss. Think we would all have taken 7 wins and 3 draws from the first 10 games before the season started

 

[Tilly'sowner]

We need Johnson on. Someone to run at them.

Gil would offer us something different for sure.

totally agree. + no injuries!

 

[humanbeingincroydon]

Emerson on for Davies

Somehow we have run out of LBs

Now we're talking!

we needed to do something down the left hand side. I’m a fan of Davies, but the difference between him and Udogie is glaring.

He came off with a slight knock, according to reports

Hmm, I wonder how he picked up a knock in the last 45 minutes...?

 

[SarrMan]

4 minutes, 4 fouls

 

[Spurf]

Better from Spurs

 

[RRich]

****ing get in

 

[humanbeingincroydon]

4 minutes, 4 fouls

0 cards

But hey, the ref warned Ayew!
