Match Thread Spurs v Everton Sat 17:30

I feel a bit sorry for Sigurdsson, he’s so pre occupied with Martina that he doesn’t really get a chance to influence anything, He needs to play through the middle. We badly need a left back, until we get one I can’t see us doing anything, he’s just terrible.

I do feel a bit bad for slating him last week after watching this today.

 

[CrustySack]

Can somebody pass me the gravy please...

 

[ProZ]

Feel sorry for Siggy, being hung out to dry, he probably seen more of the ball at Swansea

 

[Petit]

D

Rooney or Bolasie off for Lookman please

Don’t care how we do it, bur we need to get Sig into the centre.

 

[Efcjake]

So does Niasse like but I know who scores more goals and makes us play better.

 

[Kal El]

Remember the old days when we had a left back?

Going back a while now mate.....wasn’t that Moyes bloke in charge?

 

[banno]

Even tho we're 1 down I'm pleased.

That's good in a way. You are seeing positives from what has been an awful season. 6 weeks ago we would have been camped and probably 2 or 3 down by now. IMO

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

We've been actually okay

Just one defensive ship show from Martina has cost us that half

Wait for it then

 

[Turcjan]

Martina is like a joke! We should look for a better option.

It's a team game and he's playing on the left. If the full back is occupied with the opposition winger then I expect Sigurdsson to be occupying the space around their full back.

Martina shouldn't have followed Son's run into the box, Holgate or Jags should have taken that man and allowed him to go back wide to mark Aurier. He's not a left back, we all know that, so I expect Jagielka to be directing him and Pickford as well.

He's a very limited footballer but that wasn't a result of any of physical or technical deficiencies but a failure in the team holding a solid defensive shape allowing Aurier to occupy that space on the right and that's a team failure as well as Martina's.

The problem was both CBs where out of position and Martina was left covering two players.

Looking at the goal, Jags has a lot to do with it. Leaves Cuco with no chance.

If only we had 2 defensive midfielders to pick up the player jags followed out

 

[Sharpies volley]

Looking at the goal, Jags has a lot to do with it. Leaves Cuco with no chance.

Is right mate. I'm coco's biggest critic but he had to go inside to cover for jags. Just because of jags being out of position the whole of the left side got pulled about. Not sure about the other 3 or 4 times aurier got free though

 

[kenada_blue]

Have a shout and pass Son on? It’s on both of them tbh.

To who?

Jags runs into midfield tracking Kane. Holgate has an eye on Ali.

Martina follows the winger running into the hole left by Jags.

Their fullback has an age and not one midfielder gets near him

 

[technojoe]

Still in this like but ffs play some consistent passing!
