**** Tottenham Hotspur (We Go Again) v Wolves ****

[Stiff_Swede]

Playing five defenders and two holding midfielders and hoping for a counter, Conte football.
To me it is clear we lack a playmaker, I am sure the club wanted Maddison in the summer but Conte wasn't interested.

On a day when we needed a little bit more guile and pace from the wings ourselves, and Traore comes on and is a constant threat for them changing the game...then winning them the game, are you sure?

Yeah, what we needed was more getting wide and crossing in that one.....

Spurs can always be banked on to donate 3 points to sides that are in need of them.

Except Chelsea thankfully.
Forest next in the league, can't see us giving them three points...

Wonderful decision to throw away the FA Cup for this, it really was.

What baffles me, as ever, is how Conte and Stellini watch the other team being proactive, making subs, dominating the game as a result...and do nothing until the 75th minute, and then only do a like for a like and bring off one of the two players who can pass (the other being Kane) for a useless pensioner in Lucas.

*While leaving the utterly useless Son on for the entire game*. Again.

Ally Gold and the other cowards in the press box need to ask these questions to Stellini and Conte.

Bluntly - for apparently world class coaches, why are you both such stupid macarons? What are you seeing in training that justifies this? Don' t be evasive fudgers, *tell us*.

 

[stratnumberone]

we've done nothing with it, but why only 4 mins, more stoppages than in the first half where we had 8?

Hence my somewhat snide comment about Arsenal getting more than the 6 added on. Officials aren’t to blame for yet another brick show today but they were - as is standard in the PL - aggressively average. Bit like spurs really.

Trying to be too cute rarely pays off in sport. But some never learn.

 

[totalspurs]

They made 5 subs and and some tactical switches. We stuck to the same system until falling behind. The game switched at half time, cos their manager was brave and astute.... We didn't counter the change in tactics and you could see how they began to boss the game.

So so naive in our part.... Should have put an extra midfielder to counter their change their midfield began to control the match....

We’ll go out of the CL on Wednesday. If Conte isn’t gone by Thursday morning then the board aren’t doing their jobs.

Really getting sick of the teams that are being picked. Players that have been brick for the full season getting games and being left on the pitch until the last few mins.
Pick our best team and stick with it. Make substitutions to rest players instead of making loads of changes in cup games and losing them.

We've no depth in defence so play Royal, Romero, Dier, Lenglet and Davies every game. If we have the game won take one off early.

Son and Perisic have been shocking all season but still get played. They should be nowhere near the team. Give Richarlison a run of games to get up to speed, even give Danjuma a run of games, anything but Son.

And at least be proactive and make substitutions when it's obvious the game is slipping away from us.

I've wanted Conte to stay but I'm slowly slipping into wanting him to fudge off. He's stubborn and not willing to change anything no matter how brick the team is playing.
Between today and Wednesday night I'm fuming.

We learn and go again lads.
But in the meantime, can someone please tell me for the love of JC why we don't make subs earlier and or wait til we are losing. I don't understand the selection, I dont understand subs......I don't understand.

Somebody please help me understand

I don't think he will be gone if we lose Wed and Satday

All to do with the players and not the manager innit.

 

[Mrs Vert]

Yeh I know we don't but thats what they will say. Or things didnt go our way blah blah blah

 

[DubSpur]

Should have brought on Richy and Danjuma then.

Should have brought Dier on and put Davies lwb to stop that threat. Perisic can't defend, well can't do anything besides take a decent corner once in a while

 

[Mrs Vert]

I must learn to stop investing so much time in a group of men that quite frankly seem to be trying their best to not win cups and to get out of Europe altogether

 

[markysimmo]

Don't worry we go again !!!

You never know. Well another evening dodging MOT and everything online.

 

[Mrs Vert]

Don't worry we go again !!!

Yippee. Go again getting knocked out of CL

 

[Finney Is Back]

It's gonna be a looooong end of the season. Lets hope Conte fudges off in the summer

If and when he does it will just be rinse and repeat anyway. Conte and Mourinho will likely both end their careers having not won a trophy when in charge of the same specific club.
