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

[ToffeeTim]

Compare that performance to our one there the other month.

A complete role reversal. We saw it out just like spurs saw it out in July.

Imagine we got that Højbjerg instead of Allan. He looked distinctly average.

I couldn't fathom this in retrospect.

 

[EvertonCJ]

An excellent performance all round. I could have voted for anybody to be MOTM, which makes a refreshing change. Just wait until they’re all match fit.

 

[Bluerover]

If I were a baggies' supporter I'd not be looking forward to next Saturday.

Here's hoping we can keep it going.

 

[Carlito]

About as good an away performance as I can remember.

Dodged a bullet with Hojbjerg, too.

5 rep to the lad who can tell me the last big away win we had in the prem excluding tthe against moyes one at OT in 2013

Citeh?

How nice is it that a manager can see what us fans see and then change it so quickly. Hats off to Carlo for throwing them all in too. Tired legs towards the end as expected but couldn't have asked for more. Potential is there for all to see.

 

[ToffeeTim]

You just know those League Two cloggers will injure our best players.

5 or 6 changes for me. Something like...

Pickford
Kenny Keane Branthwaite Digne
Doucoure Sigurdsson Gordon
Bernard
DCL Kean

I wanted Hojbjerg. More fuel to my suspicion that I am, in fact, an idiot.

Off a Spurs fans forum. Praise indeed.

They were top drawer today, fair play to them. They were disciplined at the back, creative in the final 3rd and did all the shitty little things like winning fouls and taking the momentum and time out of the game in the 2nd half.
At times I thought we were playing a top Italian side, they had that kind of solidity and cleverness about them.
Make no mistake they will be in the mix for at least Europa.

distinct difference in quality between those two... begs the question why we even went for him in the first place... thanks Spurs is all I can say

Big as in what?
I'll reel off the dates from top of my dome - other than today and the Dec 2013 win at OT:

2-1 v Man City - Dec 20, 2010
(before today) 1-0 v Spurs - Nov 30, 2008
1-0 v Liverpool - Sep 27 1999
2-1 v Arsenal - Jan 21 1996 (came back from 1-0 down, Kanchelskis scored)
1-0 v Chelsea - Nov 26 1994 (Royle's 2nd game)

I'd play one of Doucoure and Allan. James won't play and rightly so. We need one of keane and mina to start as well.

Dont be too hard on yourself. I wanted us to sign Moussa Sissoko
