***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Expensive Stoke***

Disappointed with that. Performance has been okay but they’ve been better than us. Silly goals. I know the first one is a bad call when you see the replay but we still have the chance to defend it. The second one is very poor.

Spence has been excellent as have Dragusin and Gray. The rest have been mediocre to average with maybe the exception of Bergvall.

Need a better performance second half.

Bissouma can play a simple one-tow with Spence, but cuts inside.

Ironically we needed more from Bissouma. To take the ball and be braver, but not in that position. Where is Bentancur? Hasn't he served his concussion time already?

They were better than us for at least 35 mins there, if not 40. And yet we should be a goal up at HT.

And now having to put up with Keown’s ‘analysis’ at HT. Painful, frustrating and humiliating: it’s a standard Spurs NLD day so far….

Keown is such a clam. Guy is a paid scum schill. How he gets the gig is beyond me.

Feels like we’re trying to emulate Nottingham Forest’s rope-a-dope tactics despite only keeping 4 clean sheet in the PL this season plus lacking their threat from both wings.

And telling the full backs to leave masses of space

Oooo and the midfield not protecting the CB

Be fair though, you can only see it with the benefit of a replay. You can’t really blame the ref. It looked a corner, I thought it was a corner (albeit Porro’s reaction made me think) and the commentators did too. It wasn’t a terrible call even if it proved to be wrong.

We still had the chance to defend it.
 
Reggie on for Porro, lets get Spence in his natural position as he can actually defend, and a left footed left back on.

Madders for Sarr so we may actually hold the ball for more than 5 secs.

Their first should be a freekick to Sarr without a doubt, then never a corner of course. Second one is typical Bissouma arrogance, just play a wide open Djed with acres of space down the left ffs! Stupid. The Norwegian comms is all over Kinsky for some reason, I don't think he's been bad at all. fudging scum and their ten minute long set pieces. The ref is a clam. Come on boys!

He hasn’t looked as assured as previous 2 games imho, twice almost got caught on the ball and should’ve done better with their 2nd goal despite the divot.

Despite sitting (or in truth being forced) deep, we still manage to allow them space.... the wide man to cross it, the switch to free players at the back post, players in dangerous positions within the penalty area (we are lucky that sterling is brick, such a poor decision maker). I know we are a young team, but don't be undone by the occasion.

And ourselves, toughen up when receiving the ball with opponents close behind us. Stop falling over.

Looked a goal kick in realtime.
Not sure what the refs angle was like though

You want to win midfield back and your plan is to put Johnson on the pitch? That's going to have the opposite result. I agree we do need Kulu in midfield but we don't need Johnson ghosting on the pitch.

We have son doing that
It’s why I’d bring Maddison on
Have Bergvall slightly deeper
Then move Maddison left later on for son and Johnson on the right

It’s the same players falling over though
So the ref simply ignores it
Some maybe are fouls too
