OMT - Tottenham vs. Stoke

[Mumorn]

Potshottenham Hotspur.

 

[AdamB]

not fair to blame it on parker to know the actual details - usually every player is assigned a task.

Watch it again. He was Ade's man not Parker's!

 

[AdamB]

The sooner he's away from our club the better.

Try watching the replay

 

[Dayo]

Bale was marking fresh air too.

 

[Roy1983]

Didn't score at home to Arsenal.
Didn't score at home to Chelsea.
Didn't score at home to Man Utd
Didn't score at home to Emirates Marketing Project.

Score within 4 minutes against Spurs.

That's right they don't score against the TOP sides nothing to see here.

replay shows nzonzi passing bale right in front of his face just before he headed it in. my guess is that it was bale's area to mark.

 

[SpurMeUp]

Watching the replay - there were FOUR OR FIVE free men. We did not move with them. Appalling. We were completely static as they got goal side. Awful.

Imagine someone telling you we'd be in the fight for top four in the final 2 games of the season with Hudd-Parker in central midfield.

We are NOT in a fight for top 4 with these pair.

 

[Robbo]

Watching the replay, how the hell did we not mark the scorer? Nobody followed him, Ade, Bale, both ball watching. Very, very poor.

 

[Hootnow]

I really doubt Nzonzi was Parker's man, he's fudging huge for gods sake.

In fact, Nzonzi runs past both Adebayor and Bale and the man who is standing closest to the freekick taker makes no effort to move to try to clear it at the near post (that may have been Parker).

4 Stoke players ended up free of any Spurs man by the time he gets his header in.

 

[Mumorn]

We are NOT in a fight for top 4 with these pair.

So if we win, we're where?

 

[Huddy]

Watch it again. He was Ade's man not Parker's!

Ade's playing?

 

[AdamB]

replay shows nzonzi passing bale right in front of his face just before he headed it in. my guess is that it was bale's area to mark.

Ade was marking Nzonzi before it was taken. Then Ade lost him and Nzonzi ran past Bale. So its mainly Ade's fault though Bale could have reacted

 

[Rorschach]

No movement is our new mantra

 

[Mumorn]

This is painful at the moment.

 

[PochettinoPochettinoPochettino]

We don't deserve top 4! Walker can fudge off Parker can fudge off

 

[SpurMeUp]

Were we trying to mark zonally?

If so, go back to man marking now AVB. We look hopeless at it.

 

[Roy1983]

Walker must stop these cross field passes it costs us possession and even a goal against Liverpool. Having said that verts gave up a bit easily no? 90th minute I could understand but 14th?

 

[metalgear]

Parker CAN be useful today, stick a stud or two in Adam.

BAE would have been perfect for this, but I guess AVB wanted height against the Stoke set piece.

 

[shaney]

So if we win, we're where?

Unfortunetly with this pair I dont think we will win. Hope Im wrong.
