Match Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[cronullasharks]

I completely understand why everyone thinks tim sherwood is a complete bellend now after hearing him speak just then

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Fairly pleased so far.

 

[trueblue10]

For a team that was only put together 5 days ago, with 2 of them never played in the Prem before, that wasnt half bad, IMO

 

[kenada_blue]

Still needs work but it's a solid platform. We want the ball, look organised and confident

Get that spark up top to click will be the next step.

Lets not forget Spurs have 4 top attackers who can all score goals. Kane only needs a sniff

 

[Obes]

Still not seeing enough penetrating runs. We get 2/3rds up the pitch and kinda run out of ideas as the movement and sharpness just isn’t there yet.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Let's hope we can finish better in the second half

 

[Eggs]

I think if we had a RB + CB with pace we'd be far higher up the pitch and James would really come into his own.

...absolutely, Zat.

 

[irishtony1878]

Don't have a clue if he is one of the subs, but I would swap James for Gomes and bring on Iwobi to offer a bit of width on the right and try to take Son out of the game.
Don't think Gomes is playing badly, just think we are a bit narrow.

 

[Rook]

Pickford looks the part. Regenerated

a GKs performance often is very dependent on the club around him.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Gomez looks a bit lost here in this formation, not getting forward and we know he can't defend. Doucoure growing into it. James quality is still there thank God. Walcott to come from the bench here and be the hero

 

[Tin-Tin]

Sissoko coming on for Spurs

 

[Zezti]

How about stopping the tippy tappy stuff?

Sounds great but you can see Spurs are set up to be compact and hit on the counter, right?
We need to be careful with the balls forward and make it count.

 

[ilikecheese]

Still can't believe Richy didn't cross that ball.

 

[arbok]

James brings a whole new element to our squad. Confident on the ball, great vision, love his wing-shifting passes to open up the game. And he's supposedly only at 80% atm. We might have ourselves a real footballer

they can’t get the ball off him and he’s always one pass ahead of everyone.

everyone talks about de bruyne being high IQ and James is right up there, might be better.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Yup. I mean it's acceptable for the likes of Davies, Sigurdsson, Iwobi, etc, but Seamus has been amazing for us for a decade. Disgrace to see people slating him when he's having a top game.

He got a great headed clearance straight to Son, straight up and blocked his shot with his head again, he has played well.

Listening to the match without the phony crowd and Keane is very vocal too.
