Spurs (A) 27/09/25 - Build up & Match day thread

[Jinky]

Arias gets through a lot of work, but we need to try and find a way of getting him more involved in attacking areas.

Johnstone & Santi have both been excellent.

 

[Banjo]

Whoever is our no 38 is warming up in his kit at HT, presumably coming on. Tchatchoua, I assume.

 

[Loki]

Kudus is the main threat for them. Get Hwang off for Gomes. Arias seems a bit weak,gets knocked off the ball too easily. Still in the game though. Johnstone is keeping his place on this showing er there's another 45 minutes yet though.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

If we were mid table I wouldnt be unhappy with that performance, I think we've been decent. But our situation just makes you feel anxious that we once again look very likely to lose.

 

[Jack Regan]

We're a team with zero pace or guile unfortunately. We're basically reliant on something from a cross or set piece, as it's highly unlikely we'll score from open play.

 

[jd1981]

First time we’ve not been behind at HT since April

 

[slink]

Agba and Jackson coming on

 

[EnglishBob]

The gap between the sides is very evident, since promotion more often than not we’ve got to these types of grounds and not looked out of place.
We’ve fought hard and competing well but we look like a championship side that’s playing at a pl side in the cup.

We look like most relegated teams. We have our moments, but overall you can just tell they're not good enough. You can carry one or two poor players, maybe, but not the number we have.

He might be taking Hwang or Arias off and going to 5 at the back and moving Doc to RCB.

 

[Banjo]

Once Tottenham figured out our formation, they've been getting in behind at will. When they want to play, we can't stop them. Which means we've got to try and create some chances. Instead, it seems like we're just hoping for something to land out of the air for us. Just not enough creativity in the team. Still can't work out what kind of player Arias is meant to be.

 

[Loki]

Doc and Hwang off.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

VP must have made more HT subs than Nuno and GON put together!

 

[Jack Regan]

Krejci into midfield. Or not.

 

[Wolftone]

Joke subs

 

[Del Woppio]

I don't ever want my rwb to think "nah I won't cross this ball in, I'll knock it back to Santiago Bueno".

 

[Jinky]

Krejci into midfield.

We might actually see a run in behind from one of our midfielders now. And he’s a centre back by trade! Need a big half from Agba.

Gone to back three.

Fucking hell Santi, so unnecessary that.

 

[Loki]

Bueno what an idiot!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Santiago Bueno, you are thick as shit. How often does he do that, way too tight for no reason and he's either turned or it's a foul.

 

[Jack Regan]

Switched our wing backs now too. Presumably to counter the pace of Kudus.

Or not (again )
