If the Spurs attack passes direct to Foster, the ref will add on more time than it took for the ball to actually reach him. So 20 mins of Fergie time.
Better from Trips, second card to West Brom for time wasting, with all the subs and time wasting, it should be at least 7 minutes
Thought there would be at least 5 at the end of the first half for the same thing, but there was 2 mins FFS.
The Wembley busparquet is becoming systemic now. WTF Pochettino has not yet discerned the tactics to deal with it when he could for Dortmund/Madrid/Poool is beyond me.
A really poor first half has cost us today. Why did it take until the second half for us to wake up? Why wasn’t Trippier holding that attacking wide position further up the pitch for the whole game? We need to address the bus parking and change our approach to these Wembley games, whether that be tactics or personnel, or getting into the top 4 could end up being a real struggle come the end of the season.
Its going to be another sh!t weekend. Even if the mousers make themselves look silly again the knuckle draggers will benifit.
Would love to know what was going through Poch's mind in keeping Eriksen on. Must've finished the game with about a 40% passing accuracy, worst I think I've seen him play since he joined us. Really poor result. Couldn't go today as I'm in Devon, quite glad as well to be honest.
Well that was annoying. Only towards the end of the game did we get in behind their defence and get the ball wide. We carried two passengers today - Dele and Eriksen who were both shocking. Too may times they got outmuscled on the ball and for such good technicians their touch and flicks were all over the place. We will have an easier game against Leicester Tuesday night because they will leave space for us to exploit.
Not done much since his hat trick for Denmark has he? I think negativity is alright if it's well founded which at the moment I think it is. Our main players didn't turn up against Arsenal and it wasn't good today. What's there about which to be positive? Is this just a blip? I hope so.
