    OMT *** Tottenham Hotspur vs AFC Richmond/Crystal Palace - Sunday 27th October 14:00 ***

    Okay I get you. And the same played out today. Tbf to Maddison he’s played 3 games in a week and being taken off at HT is not going to save you a great deal. My point is: it is hard to isolate the key variables. We always look for one thing to explain a loss. But the truth is always there are a...

    This was wham line up. Wasn’t it the same as today bar Son?

    Ange did start the same side as against wham (bar Son), that was my point: most would have stuck with that side. In hindsight we would all tweak it to add more steel in the middle.

    It wasnt work. It was fight. To stand up to the fouls, barrage of physicality. To the ref and the crowd. To not be dismayed and be extra driven to play around them and show them up. All credit to palace they were right in our faces and worked extremely hard. Maddison wasn’t fresh. Not was...

    Yes I get your position. I’m simply asking what you’d do differently. Easy to criticise after a lost game. Who wouldn’t re-run the game again and tweak things! One of the core abilities of mangers must be anticipating outcomes. After the first 5 mins today you could sense this outcome. But...

    Que? Moving goal posts onto a different point? Some players were rotated, but not all. Maddison, Solanke, Moore etc Personally I don’t see a huge difference to last season. If anything I would say we have improved. In fact I am certain we have. What is different? We didn’t get the run of the...

    From the cup game. But not from the last league game?

    Why are you confused? The difference is, I’m not down on the manager and saying he’s set us up incorrectly. In hindsight it’s a different story. I’m sure Postecoglou would have done something differently if he could re-run the game. For that matter, what setup and approach were you espousing...

    Fair play. Thought you were lamenting Postecoglou. When pre-match most would have kept the same core side. Very easy in hindsight, now we know palace were in our faces and overloading the midfield, and that we didn't cope...to say we might have been better served with Bentancur over Maddison...

    I don't see the loss as coming from either a lack of hard work @Bedfordspurs or doing the 'wrong thing' @billyiddo We lost today for two reasons primarily: we didn't play through their press. But more of an issue: we were not firing in attack with too many players who lack a bit of cut throat...

    We needed Bentancur with Bissouma today. Easy to say now. But that might have helped us play through their press.

    Credit palace for kicking and fighting. They out fought us. We didnt look prepared for the fight. The greatest concern was our lack of potency up front. We didn't convert one promising attack, and we had lots. Hit the post and fannied around. A few of the lapses from attackers were woeful...

    What do you mean? People \said we didn't have openings. I simply listed a few. The Rici chance was woeful! Any anticipation he just stick out a leg and scores. Of course they will have chances when we are chasing the game.

    Plenty. Richi just then. Any connection and its a goal. Werner clean through - passes out wide. Hit the post. Poro offside and shooting over etc. Various promising positions first half too. Maddison shot saved. We create half a yard, have a decent attacking setup, but don't have enough conviction.

    Werner, Rici and even Solanke are not confident finishers. If you pause and think, its a bad sign. They need to be ready always, and finish quickly and instinctively. We've had lots of openings. No one able to slot home.

    Some of our forward play has been dreadful. Fuking put the ball in the back of the net! Clear openings. We're embarrassed to be in front of goal.

    Clean through, any forward with confidence takes that on and shoots.
