    I slagged off Arteta for overplaying some of his players, so I have to do the same here for Postecoglou.
    He may have been attempting to shield Udogie from the same issue, but starting van de Ven in this one was a mistake.
    His hamstrings are an ongoing issue and he should never play left-back for us. He's too valuable at centre-half.

    Our squad is clearly unbalanced and we need to do something to address it in January.
    Failing to register Spence in Europe was a whopper at the time and is worse with hindsight.
    Allowing our homegrown and club trained numbers to deplete so significantly was shortsighted, at best.

    *the source material was really ****e for this one, apologies in advance!*

    Better late than never but we are back again, Ladies and Gents for Season 7 Episode 3 of DH's AwayDays! On this episode DH takes the long and arduous trek over to our Oasis loving friends at BlueMoon.

    PRE-MATCH:

    Can see us losing this one and it would probably not be a bad thing
    It'd be a great thing.

    Let Spuds think they can win something for once
    That's the spirit!

    Play the women’s team
    Maybe you should've done...

    This will be our first defeat of the season
    How quickly do you think the second one will follow?

    Sack this one off with a young side, cos Bournemouth is going to be a really tough game
    Oh you have no idea how tough they're gonne be...

    This is the sort of game we’ll end up winning
    Hmmm

    I want to be Googling players when this team sheet drops.
    Danny Rose, is that you?

    Spurs have a few great young players as well, Gray, Bergvall & Moore all great to watch.
    Indeed they are!

    FIRST HALF:

    *Werner 1-0*
    Oh nice Timo Werner is playing - (replies to himself) - **** off moron
    timo werner of all people
    Werner scores. That’s how bad our defence is
    The ****er who can't score in a brothel nails one against us!
    <laugh>

    Is that his first goal in about a 1000 games
    Probably be another 1000 til his second!

    Looks like Son is wearing his Gran's coat
    And he's still cooler than you'll ever look.

    Son’s come as the guy from The Hangover
    Because he had a SICK. NIGHT. BITCHES!

    *Sarr 2-0*
    I ****ing hate Spurs
    Good goal. No one closing him down though.
    Ortega moved slower than Gundo there.
    Nice goal...
    Brilliant hit
    Get Carson on
    Ahh my idol, big Scotty C. Has the best job in the world.

    Rodri style goal that
    He has posters of Sarr on his wall.

    *Nunes 2-1*
    GET IN
    Nunes and Savinho having a blinder.
    Nunes is our best LW
    Well I mean I'm better than Doku, I just can't run as quick as him. Can't really run at all as it goes.

    SECOND HALF:

    *Savinho injury*
    This doesn't look good
    Filthy filthy filthy bastards. Aided and abetted by this corrupt so called referee.
    IT'S A CONSPIRACYYYY!

    Without Rodri Pep needs to consider having a more solid back line and forget inverted fullbacks
    Can everyone just forget inverted fullbacks, please? God I hate this nerdy ****.

    I hate Spurs.
    Random but thank you.

    *Jamhai Simpson-Pusey comments*
    Some Pusey would certainly whet my appetite.
    If Pusey and Whatmuff don't feature together at some point in the future we've messed up royally
    Pusey was wide open there - (response by another poster) - You got pics?
    There are times where football doesn't disappoint.

    POST-MATCH:

    Out of the Ruben Amorim sweepstakes and the Carabao Cup in as many days. Can this season just be over
    Must be so hard having Guardiola as your manager, you have my sympathies.

    I hope Geordies go on and win it now.
    I don't!

    Zero ****s given, 3 points Saturday.
    Yeah about that, buddy.

    Wasn't the best game to watch.
    Well I rather enjoyed it!

    Competition better suited to smaller clubs anyway.
    Spoken like a true plastic.

    Credit to Ange, he stopped the ball getting to Nunes, second half.

    Did not see the game, but ...

    1. Any Citeh team between their 1st-2nd best is a
    difficult opponent for most PL teams

    2. Pep was not that desperate to win
    (not using Haaland etc - allegedly fearful of the
    injury plague Citeh currently have) .

    3. On Werner, you can see how his thinking confidence is in shreds.
    No time to think of anything but kicking the ball : goal.
    Time to think about the kick : his Spurs career to date.

    4. Ange has answered the questions after the Palace game for a bit.
