Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City Match History 1896 to 2014

70% possession and losing...if ever a stat proves that stats are **** this has gotta be it!

 

Really naive tackling by Townsend. Walters is very seasoned and he'll always try and win something there.

 

Eriksen's set-pieces have dropped off as much as the rest of his game this season.
Not sure what he's doing to justify being selected, to be honest.

 

TMT thinks J- Rod is'nt good enough,he must be better than this shower of ****e

 

Really obvious timewasting from Begovic. Not sure how long the ref's going to give him, but that's too long.

 

It's not just the percent of possession you have, but what you do with it. In our case, that's usually **** all!...

 

Teams come to us expecting to score and win...
3 home losses from 5 matches...not including today...and only 2 clean sheets
awful form and unacceptable...qpr have got mor points at home than us this season!

 

"70% possession and losing...if ever a stat proves that stats are **** this has gotta be it!"

Not really.
If you do what rugby tv coverage does, and tally the possession stats for each quarter of the
pitch, then you get the truth of it.

 

Aimless hoofs out from the back and no confidence at all throughout the midfield.

 

Cameron in the book. Cynical foul.

 

Begovic is really pushing his luck with his goalkicks. Having a word is pointless.

 

Begovic finally gets a yellow. That was a bit silly.

 

With hindsight we had the same . Lots of possession , quite often no end result .

 

Two subs already for Stoke. That's either really bad luck or they didn't warm up properly.

 

At least we have started having some attempts on goal...not that I am clutching at straws

 

Our defence is an utter shambles. No communication and no cohesion whatsoever.
Totally suspect on set-pieces and non-existent in open play. So poor.

 

How long before we see Stambouli replace Capoue in the first team? He's been ineffective for the past few games.

 

Only we could buy a giant centre back who can't head the ball or impose himself on the opposition!!

 

Rose once again showing why hes not good enough at this level.... and as for the CB's......

 

2-0 Stoke, Walters. More awful defending, Rose utterly switching off.

This is a really poor performance so far, even for this season. Rubbish.
