OMT - Spurs v Villa

[Benny_Lad]

Good goal. Doesn't mean he wasn't awful for the majority of the game.

Only jesting. See my recent post. I know he’s not been at his best lately but he’s just one of those players that will keep going. That’s good enough for me.

Toby didn’t help today
Defended very naively

He’s best days are behind him

Interesting interview from Toby.
Sounds like he wasn't ready to play - and it showed. That's a selection choice.

We don't have a lot of choices given Verts performances of late and our other CBs need an older head alongside them.

 

[Yiddo]

How lucky are we.

We are not finishing in top four even with 3 points today.

Can’t be pleased with this win after today’s performance. Sorry to brick on a win. Not Good enough.

Our chances created were more than good enough it was just our defending and our finishing that was not good enough, on another day we could have had 5 or 6.

So Greilish watch, had a lot of the ball, Villa put everything through him, but ultimately he did fudge all and lost to a 2 out of 10 Spurs performance.

I thought Grealish was very wasteful.

I'm loving Engels instead...

@milo Sanchez

He was very, very good.

I can't tell whether I love or hate this post.

You have to admit he should have had an assist when Davies blocked the near open goal

Fair point, but he could have finished it himself or passed to a better player, I’ve not seen the stats but I feel like he gave the ball back to us 14/15 times, similar to Son, who by all accounts had a shocker.

 

[nayenezgani]

fudge me that was beyond jammy.

Again.

Yet another vastly unsatisfying 3 points...

Is there such a thing as an unsatisfying 3 points?

I like grealish but can’t see who he would replace

 

[milo]

That's true of most players at his age, he's still the first defender on the team sheet and good for a couple of seasons

 

[Cochise]

I thought Sanchez had a really poor game. Their #9 outfought him to a lot of the first and second balls and he got lost under it on more than one occasion.

 

[mephitis]

We were the better side by a loooooong way
Just missed chance after chance

Spot on but missing so many chances I was waiting for the sucker punch. On reflection though, we seemed to get stronger towards the end while they got weaker, evidence Sonny's goal.

 

[yiddo37]

Would have been frustrating to have drawn that.
@milo Aurier, Davies, Sanchez, Lo Celso

 

[AdamB]

Crossing my fingers that we can stay in the hunt for a top 4 spot until Kane is back ....

Helps we had Lo Celso on who can pass

It’s something we need to address in coming window.

Rotate with Alli, or play deeper in a Modric role. He's great at sidestepping a press, and can pass.
