*** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Some european team ***

[Baleforce]

No one appreciates more than me how good Lamela is, but I’d have given him more than 10 minutes.

 

[nayimfromthehalfwayline]

Lamela for Winks? What? What formation is that going to be?

4-1-the rest
With Eriksen apparently as the 1

 

[Sandman]

very open game. Lots of chances for both sides. They have taken theirs. They are top of their league and full of confidence. We are a bit all over the shop at the moment. Could have been so different. I dont get the formation Poch is playing or his subs at the moment.

 

[Baleforce]

Losing patience with Poch now. Went to 4-2-3-1 and we looked good, Moura comes on and 4-4-2 and offering nothing again.

he’s laid a massive egg here

 

[paxtonwolf]

Being taught a lesson in game management here and then 5-2. That was brilliant tbh

 

[Kandi1977]

Don't be too sure, the whole "clear and obvious..." Line is the catch all get out of jail free excuse

That's the PL. Not the same guidelines in CL.
fudge off. The gooner clam scores again

 

[paxtonwolf]

Trust it be him though

Never works like that in Europe

 

[Pirate55]

2-5. Gnabry hat trick. Too fast for our back four. Good finish. Ripped apart again.

 

[nayimfromthehalfwayline]

This is just embarrassing.

The way we set up, the way we play, it's got "dead man walking" written all over it.

If it was anyone but Poch the ground would be ringing with "...getting sacked in the morning"

 

[Armchair Expert]

Well, this has been absolute brick all night.

 

[AdamB]

Silver linings:
1) Red Star and Olympiakos are drawing
2) Hopefully Poch has learned from this?
3) I predicted 5-2 at HT!

 

[Moby]

Jesus, we’ve been fudging awful tonight.

So many problems; all over the pitch, all off the pitch, and absolutely no sign that any of them are being addressed.

 

[SylDave]

Well Gnabry and coutinho are both starting so I bet there are.

Your forgetting the fact we are playing a diamond, with no actual holding midfielder either, they could quite possibly have the time of their lives.

Not to blow my own trumpet but Nostradamus I am.

 

[Cochise]

I always thought Gnabry looked brick. Aside from the space we've given him, he's finished well.

 

[Sandman]

Aurier playing offside when their player is in his own half. Says it all.

 

[djp82]

fudge off . What a shambles.

This may be a watershed game. We did not address our problem at RB in the Summer.
Poch choice of formation. Chopping and changing it. Weird substitutions.

Does he want the sack ? I do wonder.

 

[Kandi1977]

Well, at least we're not losing 5-1, as some other team regularly did....

 

[Baleforce]

Again, ridiculous defending, why aren’t we goal side?

Gnabry doesn’t score a single goal tonight if Sanchez is on the pitch, Toby and Verts are too slow to be the sole cb’s.

 

[AdamB]

Jesus, we’ve been fudging awful tonight.

He's abondonned the diamond in the second half. Lets see what team he picks for Brighton away. If he picks the same formation, then I'll be verging on thinking we need a change
