OMT *** Tottenham Hotspur vs Fiorentina***

[AdamB]

They really need to get rid of this round in the EL. The competition doesn't get interesting til the QFs

 

[paxtonwolf]

Ah well

 

[Bullet]

Commentator said Fiorentina have 4 wins and a draw in their last 5 home games against English opposition, with no goals conceded... and Spurs haven't won in 5 away Euro ties (or maybe just once, I forget)... so this is a great performance

Similar to Kirchoff for Sunderland. Why turn your back like that?

 

[SpurMeUp]

A lucky deflection. We'll get a second.

 

[Bullet]

That was like Eriksen recently... against Stoke or Sunderland or someone?

 

[paxtonwolf]

They've woke up now. Different match totally

Although lacking class, we probably should have been appealing that. Need Rose on!

Sunderland

 

[Robbo]

Unlucky

 

[paxtonwolf]

What a change HT makes

 

[thfcsteff]

I dislike the way Fiorentina are looking for everything. Excellent learning curve for some of our youngsters in terms of dealing with gamesmanship.

Once. FC Carrier Bag

I've been very supportive of Mason but this is his first game for ages and he's not as infuential as Toby. Why not?

Toby is not a captain in my eyes that's why not.

I don't know what my opinion of Alli's silly passes has to do with my opinion on Gazza. Seems you are trying to make this bigger than it actually is. I simply said i was worried about Alli being over confident due to silly passes he tries to make and have not said anything about hating him or thinking he is a bad player etc.

I guess when Bentaleb played them passes against United your reaction was the same? That he is a youngster learning and he will make mistakes?

I am similarly patient with Bentaleb and urged people not to overreact on here when he has made mistakes.

 

[paxtonwolf]

That was some HT b@lllocking they got looking at them in this half

Fair enough if you think your mate is more captain material. I'm basing my judgement on his experience and this past season (Toby).

 

[paxtonwolf]

Are their players taking it in turns to throw themselves on the floor?

 

[Roy1983]

It really does seem old-school against the new-school tactics.

Not sure but I think that's the second time you've made the assumption its cos he's 'my friend' that I disagreed with your original statement. It's not. It's because Mason plays centre midfield which I prefer, he's more vocal which I prefer plus Toby is a superb defender but not a captain. In my eyes.

And howl like they are in excruciating pain.
