Just seen Cork for the Kane goal. Jesus. People actually thought that bloke had regained England quality form because he put in a 6/10 at Wolves away

Just hope spurs declare

Switched wingers with McNeil now on left & Brady on right

Not that it’ll make much difference

We'll lose to Newcastle next week.

Not sure what the tactics should be here. If we try to save the game we'll get ripped apart at the back

Spurs aren't even that good

Unlucky there, great cross from mc niel

Cork/Lowton are simply not good enough

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:24 pm

Please sign a right back. I don't care if it makes us "do a Portsmouth".

SalisburyClaret · Post by **SalisburyClaret** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:24 pm

Lowton booked for not moving out the way of a Spurs player running straight at him

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:24 pm

I said at the beginning of the season if Cook, Westwood and Hendrick were our midfield and Lawton was at right back we would struggle. We should have signed two midfielders, a right back and someone with pace upfront, we haven't and we will struggle.

Agree with Lowton but Cork has been the only one showing any fight today

If we don't strengthen this window we will really struggle, some creative players in has to be paramount we just cannot hope to keep getting away with such dire tactics.

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:26 pm

I struggle to understand some “obstruction” decisions.

It looked more like Son ran into Lowton than Lowton blocking Son to me

Edit: SalisburyClaret on the same thinking

I can't see it. Drinkwater staying is the only move I can see.

Never a yellow card

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:27 pm

Our midfield used to protect the back four, this one doesn't.

Don’t agree with that. Son knocked the ball wide then changed his path of running into Lowton

SGr · Post by **SGr** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:29 pm

Created a few chances now, looking better. All because we win the ball back and counter, or actually choose to work it wide on the floor. Hoofing the ball when their whole team is ready for it simply does not work.

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:30 pm

Pieters... what a throw in!!!

icu81b4 · Post by **icu81b4** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:30 pm

I know. If we stay up it will be a brilliant achievement with how we're playing.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:33 pm

Every time Mee and Tarks go up we look in danger. We normally get away with it but not that time.
We have no pace for taking on that class of player.

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:33 pm

We're so **** we cant even bring down a player!

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sat Dec 07, 2019 3:33 pm

the most pathetic attempt at defending I've seen in an awfully long time - Son just walked past 6 of our lot.

Zero effort

Gets the ball on his own 18yd box and runs past half the team like they aren’t there

Top 10 Championship sides would give them a better game. We play too many games like a Championship side.

That's just funny. If you can't laugh you'll cry. Our defence, strong jaw, tough team to play against, blah blah blah - it's all a myth.
