OMT SPURS v burnley

We rely so much on the pace of our full backs. The two in the pitch have none, added to that Trips has forgotten how to cross and plays it back inside every time now.

No need for Dier and Dembele, drop Eriksen in there and bring on Vincenzo.

It wasn't a problem when we finished last season with these fullbacks.

I think that all we are seeing is that Poch trains the side to peak after Christmas. We have been a bit workmanlike in early season every year under him.
 
With this and last week's display, do you guys think we are going to win the league? Give me a break. We need to bring in reinforcements. We've not progressed at all.
 
We usually have one decent half at least so let's see what happens next. I think if we fudge up today then we worry a bit, and see if we get any new faces in.

Let's see what the next 20 mins goes like.

He was whipping in crosses which negates his lack of pace. Now he's not even doing that.

He had three central defenders behind him then. Both of his games this season have been in a back four.

He's been in positions this game to deliver and hasn't. Don't see how that relates to our defensive shape.
 
Don't see what the big deal is. We've mainly played like this under Poch,possession based first half and begin to exploit later in the game when opposition is tired of chasing the ball. Doesn't always work but more often than not reaps rewards....

Who said we were?

I think this year is about consolidating... escaping unharmed from Wembley and sneaking into the top four.

We won 17 of 19 at WHL last year. That won't happen at home for us this season.
