Tottenham Hotspur v Everton. 9th Feb at 13.30.

Absolutely superb half from McCarthy and Barry especially. McCarthy stopped literally everything there. Everyone in the XI has played very well. We've risen to this challenge better than I thought we would. That half was as much to do with our great defensive play and good forward play as it was Spurs being a bit pedestrian.

Absolute piss-take is that we could still lose the game because we haven't scored. It's becoming a bit of a theme for us. That's certainly what we'll have to work on in the summer.

Very proud of how we've done though. We look easily the better team out of these two sides.

brilliant performance tbh, story of our season, just lacking a goalscorer. couple of ricochets in their final 3rd have luckily gone their way and i have no idea why mirallas didn't slip naismith in, he'd done all the hard work.

osman started off really well, but his slowness showed in the second half, give him 10 more then get barkley on i'd say.

naismith has done a really good job up top as well.

Lost count how many times Osman has been dispossessed. He's just weak as p*ss.

 

[Furey1878]

Even though he's played well...

Osman off, Barkley on.

 

[Sensei]

Am fuming at Kev for not playing naisy through. Greedy little git.

This, Traore didn't look impressed either

Twice, by my count, same as McCarthy.

 

[TrixyStevens]

Outswinging corners and Pienaar's passing the only let down. Bar Osman waiting for the ball, I think he has been good. Naismith a very good outlet. Get at them in the 2nd half lads

 

[Christiffa25]

I don't get all the Osman hate, he's had a good game. Our weakness so far has been Piennar

Hehehe

 

[Stuckwithmoyes]

Got some good options on the bench though lads.

I have warm feelings of aceness for the 2nd half

 

[Buckers]

McCarthy is amazing simply amazing. Deulo has to come on for pienaar soon, traore for naismith and Barkley for osman. And ve vill smash them.

 

[Bullinasia]

Distin has not looked his usual assured self to me. 2 bad mistakes recovered for him by first Tim Howard and then Jags

 

[RFUS]

It's hard to praise Osman though because for all of his excellent play, he's been piss poor in front of goal and we've not scored.

 

[Oviedo37]

We need goals!! This could decide our season!!!!

 

[Christiffa25]

Yes in parts Osman has done well but were trying to beat a good team for a top 4 challange....we need better!!

Cruel but reality!

 

[Bluejelly12]

Decent first half that, had the better chances. Kev should have squared that one to Naismith but apart from that, no complaints...now really boss it by throwing Barkley, Deulofeu and Traore on. Spurs wont be able to handle them!
