Moussa Sissoko

[spurspinter1]

Was great today, I’m always pleased when spurs players exceed my expectations. I would have got rid of him and Aurier based on last seasons performances but credit to them both for knocking down under a coaching team that seems to be capable of improving players better than any other in the league. Sissoko in particular looks so much more comfortable on the ball now.

Nice touch that he had Dembele’s song sung a few times.

Pretty sure it's the White Stripes mate

He has been getting that for a while now though, great to see. Also great to see him beasting his way around, needed so badly after Dembele and Wanyama have either been injured or poor for too long.

Sari played one way at Napoli regardless of opponent, he will play that way with Chelsea.

Means kante is wasted

Morata over Giroud is another strange one to me. The french fudger is a very effective striker whereas Morata is just offside.

Especially as he seems to score against us alot

Girlie has really struggled to score

But Morata is IMO too basic all round for their game

Their crying out for a more dynamic striker

3 in his last 4 but a bit of a barren run before that. Maybe I think he has been more prolific than he has as he always scores against us

Morata needs a Pochettino.
There is a good striker in there imo

His performances this season mean that we should turn a profit on him, if we sold him in the summer.

But surely one cannot put a value, upon that which is priceless?....

Could watch that over and over. Well, I did.
Almost up there with the tackle itself is the quick check that the we've got the ball under control, then the walk away. Job done.

He is, Morata hasn’t shown his best for Chelsea yet.

I’m still annoyed about the goal, when Giroud is on and they work it wide there is only one ball coming, how we schemed that to have Giroud being covered by all five foot and 50kg dripping wet Fyoth rather than Toby I don’t know.

Look how many yards he makes up as well, he’s rapid.

It was a great cross TBF

Wouldn't surprise me if that hurt Sissoko as much as Kovacic, but the reactions set the tone.

Winks could do that

 

[Lemonade Money]

Winks could do that

What, and ensure the rebound goes back to Lloris?

Of course not. Winks would've walked away with the ball and then laid an inch perfect pass to the feet of Kane who was clear through on goal.

 

[Daisuk]

Always had faith in Siss. Knew he would come good for us.

Just kidding, obviously, but man has he been useful for us recently. Another great performance by him yesterday, his best for us yet by a mile! Great work defensively and offensively.

 

[Lemonade Money]

Sissoko didn't just play well by Sissoko standards yesterday, if he can keep that up, we won't miss Wanyama or Dembele.

True, irrespective of that we made a mistake, had Toby been there he may not have executed anyway, but he should still have been the man on Giroud.

It’s incidents like this which you can but fail to control that end up hurting you.
