*** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Emirates Marketing Project ***

Only positive I can find from this half would be that Odobert actually looks like someone who actually can dribble past his defender. Will probably the first to be taken off by clueless Ange :)

No chance in hell to win anything (Europa League) with a manager who can't see the obvious. A defensive weak Porro against Doku and a Brennan jogging back to help him..
 
Dreadful stuff. Really fudging awful.

Vicario, Gray, Bentancur and Odobert come out of it with a bit of credit. The rest have been abysmal and when so many have been abysmal, you have to look at the dugout.

Need to do two things. Move the ball quicker. Stop leaving acres of space for them to play in.
The entire front 3 are static.

Odobert slightly less so than the other 2x but there is zero movement.

We are bombing forward as normal as leaving gaps all over the place, Doku has that 1/4 of the pitch to himself, standard tactic v us - tell the wingers to just stay wide and they are in.
 
He fudging should be! He's been atrocious!
Maddison complaining for the whole game, every time he plays is SO annoying to watch..... although to be fair I usually agree with most of his appeals lol


(Except the ones where he falls over like Son does and waves his arms about appealing)
 
Very poor first half. Emirates Marketing Project aren't really doing anything to us, we seem to be the architects of our own downfall today. Really slow and ponderous on the ball and turning over the ball for no reason at all. Both Udogie and Porro have been exposed a number of times. Would definitely prefer Spence to be playing. Hope Ange makes some changes at half time because things are not clicking right now.

On the plus side, somehow its only 1-0 and i think if we can sort ourselves out we will be able to cause them problems. Still a chance to take something from this game.
 
Only positive is we are only 1 down and have options on the bench that should strengthen us. Ange normally waits till 60 mins before subs so if we can see out the first 15… but that’s a big if!
 
I know we haven't been our best, but seriously, has the ref been drinking turpentine?
If a busdriver had delivered a performance like that on his shift he would have been sacked before reaching the terminal!

However, we have a bench, for once! And we can substitute up! Sure can't hurt to give it a good ol' go now, can it?
 
Nah, if I ever give up on Spurs I'm done with football.

Fair enough.

I feel like I’m lining my next one up, not because of performances, but I think we might give in and get taken over by a hedge fund or oligarch in the not too distant future. That would do it for me.
 
Porro giving Doku the time and space to make him look like prime Messi
Johnson, a total and utter waste of space
Tel is not a CF, we know that

Bergvall at least is trying to be positive, Gray too with some good attempted longballs

Kulu, Spence, Sarr on at HT for me

He should have booked two of them
 
Some of our classic issues still on show...

Plenty of space given to their wide men.
That one-two movement to play around our full back as we ball watch.
Once again we fail to realize only humans can put the ball in the net...marking space only helps if all the humans are marked.
 
Unsurprisingly we don't look like a familiar team. Our passing, our thinking, our movement is too slow. Men against boys so far. City should have scored at least 2-3. Yet we are only 1 down and all to play for. Can these kids and squad players raise their game second half?
