Moss is the same every single time I see him ref a match. How is he still doing it in the prem?

Genuinely think there must be some rigging of the fitness tests, or the bar is just too low.

 

[Irrational.]

Remember when everyone thought this would be a walk in the park?

 

[Drainy]

Fred is less threatening than a fecking marshmallow

 

[SirAnderson]

So is the the "masterclass" some were expecting from Jose. Sit back and wait for us to make a mistake.

 

[NJM78]

Shocking display bar a few. Pogba should be on for McTominay who's passing has been woeful. And Dan James is just not very good. Big changes needed half time as this is way too easy for Spurs.

 

[KennyBurner]

Mctominay sadly can’t hide behind pereira/lingard taking all the spotlight for being shite. Been hands down the worst player on the pitch.

 

[SirMattlives]

Stay calm chaps -- we are still in this, an equalizer changes everything. Yes, we're rusty but there's time.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

I'd switch McT and Fred for Matic and Pog at half time.

Need to totally change this up

 

[sparx99]

Ridiculous. James is fouled, not given. Makes a harmless foul in retort, yellow card.
And some in here will agree with that because they hate James.

Yeah, ‘retaliation’ is usually booked but how he didn’t get a foul I don’t know. The media did an amazing hatchet job on James as diver in the first couple weeks of the season.

There should be a pane at the FA to rescind those sort of bookings.

 

[redshaw]

Foul on McTom earlier, no yellow. James gets fouled, no free kick then gets a yellow out of frustration. Spurs carry on poleaxing our players while they get "motivated" for the occasion. Welcome back to the PL.

 

[duffer]

Blame me for this. I put £30 on Rashford to score first. I was certain karma would reward him.

 

[fps]

Lloris really loves it when his team clears it from a corner doesn’t he. Nice that he’s found his joy.

 

[Majima]

Agreed we need a deep laying play maker for this game is so obvious

Yep. If Ole has got anything about him, it'll be fixed at the break. We've got the options on the bench to fix it. Matic or Pogba or both doesn't matter.

 

[Denis79]

VAR not on our side

Fred and McTominay are killing us with there lack of quality on the ball

Hopefully Pogba will come on, we need a bit more creativity.

 

[Paxi]

Definitely, we'd just had a great chance before it, then it came along and disrupted the while flow. Feck this.

Not to mention the fact that Spurs looked absolutely toothless before then. Still you switch off for a sec you get punished.

 

[Schmeichel's Cartwheel]

The AWB-McTominay-James combo on the right is one of the worst we've had in years. There are probably better ones in the championship.

All 3 seem to panic in possession.

 

[sullydnl]

Blame me for this. I put £30 on Rashford to score first. I was certain karma would reward him.

Turns out karma votes Tory.

 

[el3mel]

Shaw's side is ridiculous defensively!

 

[Andycoleno9]

I mean it absolutely is an important trait. Beckham and Giggs has it in spades.

Yes, but when you talk about their qualities you will first say technique then crossing then maybe dribble then scoring goals and then as 5th or 6th trait you will say hard work. When attacker's best quality is hard work then something is wrong

 

[fps]

Good from Fernandes, Spurs need more to think about defensively.

 

[Offside]

Very rusty but a goal may change things.

 

[FireballXL5]

At least James is trying. Has Martial even touched the ball yet? Been totally anonymous.

 

[Irrational.]

DDG would've spilled that.

 

[Kearnkoff69]

Our terrible passing and movement isn't helping

No disagreement here. Just noting that we're playing right into Spurs' hands with our setup and tactics so far.

 

[christinaa]

None of our players has been good.

 

[Deery]

Pogba and Williams on for the second half has to be done

 

[Paxi]

Bruno’s down

edit no he’s not.

 

[Murder on Zidanes Floor]

Martial is so flat footed it's a joke. There's zero urgency off the ball from him.

Will never be the forward we need to win big trophies.

 

[Sassy Colin]

Greenwood for James and Pogba for MuckyT at half time?

 

[Zlaatan]

Pogba for McTominay
Greenwood for James

Yes please.

 

[Mr Smith]

Great turn by Bruno and shows a great example of the areas we need to get him on the ball. I wish he wouldn't shoot from there though; he had like 3 players running off him.

 

[Ødegaard]

Blame me for this. I put £30 on Rashford to score first. I was certain karma would reward him.

Can you put 100k on Spurs winning this thing?

 

[mitchmouse]

just what does Ole see in James and Martial? why does he go on picking DDG? really very little idea and don't believe for one minute he'll attract the players we need in the summer

 

[sparx99]

They also had ability in spades. James doesn’t.

Yeah I know but you said work rate wasn’t important in a Utd winger. James is average but his work rate ain’t the issue.

 

[Judas]

Mostly very grim that. Need Greenwood and Pogba on, James has been poor same with McTominay and Fred really. Obviously Lindelof looks shaky he always does.

 

[Stookie]

Our left side getting destroyed.

Matches the right side

 

[Feed Me]

Keane is going to demolish De Gea at half time

 

[Canagel]

Tactically outclassed by Mourinho

 

[Irrational.]

At least James is trying. Has Martial even touched the ball yet? Been totally anonymous.

You could say he's been well-Martialled.

I'll get my coat.

 

[Freak]

James and martial are pointless. They’re constantly coming short instead of making runs.
