Unlucky Zirkzee. Hopefully this can spark something.

 

[Ranie]

Feck this. Off to watch the Terrifier 3.

 

[Martial'sEmergingSmile]

Very silly - arrogant even - to think that we can 'hide' Martinez on defence and play him solely on his ball-playing ability.

A slow, weak, hyperaggressive centre-back. It's almost comical.

A signing basically emblematic of the Ten Hag era.

 

[groovyalbert]

Just can't see these players adapting properly to Amorim. They're not good enough.

 

[thisisnottaken1]

There's a lot of those.

Brighton and Crystal Palace to name just two.

 

[ThanksBoss26]

Martinez in theory should be perfect for that LCB role in this team but the amount of mistakes or times he gets caught out now is a big concern.

 

[Hester_manc]

Should be a goal

 

[CannibalSpectre]

They do

Agreed

 

[santeria13]

I can’t understand the Martinez thing. Looked like one of the best defenders in the league and now looks like one of the worst.
Not at the races.

He's been bad ever since we packed in the counter attacking football eth used in most the first season. He's just not that good

 

[Blood Mage]

Our players have been bullied by a team both athletically and technically superior.

 

[RedDevil [NC]]

God we should cut losses with half these shit players in January.

 

[Dec9003]

Unlucky Zirkzee.

 

[ha_rooney]

3-1!

 

[JBG]

We need to sell all the ex Ajax players ETH recruited, they’re not good enough at this level.

Players that genuinely should be sold and replaced:

Licha
Antony
Rashford
Zirksee
Lindelof
Eriksen
Bayindir
Dalot
Malacia

Probably forgetting some.

 

[gerdm07]

Bissouma and Sarr just too good for our midfield

 

[r0663664]

Frankly speaking, I don't rate Martinez. He doesn't have the height or pace to place in EPL. Why ETH bought him? Only he will know. Antony is another useless one? Yes, all Ajax players should be sold.

 

[saivet]

Come on!! Well played Bruno!!

 

[Andycoleno9]

Big Z!!!

 

[The Firestarter]

Big Zeeee

 

[rajds89]

3-4 incoming..

 

[Martial'sEmergingSmile]

Boom. Imagine if Spurs manage to Spurs this.

 

[RedRocket9908]

Go on Josh

 

[JinnerJamie]

Game one 3-1

ZZ

 

[Castia]

Game on….

 

[Agila Dathi]

Dropping out of Caraboa is no disaster, but getting kicked out by a team we all know is never going to win the competition is just very sad.
Spurs don’t win trophies.

 

[space]

Spurs wow, terrible

3-1

 

[Gordon S]

Biggest issue is still mentality.

Just not up to it at all.

Biggest issue is quality. Martinez is good when we have the ball, but is not nearly physical enough for this level. It costs us, time and time again.
Antony is one of the biggest flops in a long time, there just isn`t a top player in there.
And you can go on, only a handful really with the quality needed

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Zirkzee!!!! We're leaving with something

 

[Chairman Steve]

From Friedel Forster to Feckup Forster in 60 seconds

 

[pocco]

He was so good in his first season, following his injury, he just hasn't come back the same.

I’m guessing it was a bit of a purple patch and he was helped by quite a conservative setup. As soon as we’ve tried to be more expansive he’s been shaky.

 

[sixdwarf]

Zirkzeeeeeeeee. Right come on. This is Spurs

 

[48 hours]

Feck this. Off to watch the Terrifier 3.

Is that based on our back 3 today?

 

[thisisnottaken1]

A lifeline! Probably too late to mount a comeback but we’ll take it!

 

[Flying_Heckfish]

Nice press

 

[NinjaZombie]

Let's face it. Martinez has been horrible this season. Shocking defending on their second goal.

 

[Stookie]

Unlucky Zirkzee. Hopefully this can spark something.

You said it

 

[Superunknown]

When ETH came in, it was seen as an opportunity to clear out the squad and replace it with quality. Honestly, it looks like Amorim has a harder job post-ETH. We've replaced dross with lower quality dross. To make it worse, we've spent a lot too, which is going to make it hard to shift some of these guys.

 

[Smores]

Get a better defensive shape and coach in! This back 3 is not going to work in the PL. Stubbornly sticking to one formation is not good management, it may work in a weak league like Portugal but the PL is a different beast. I'm yet to see any sort of improvement it's brought to the play. We can't defend, and we are still toothless in attack. He's been brought in to improve the players but at the moment it looks like his formation is only adding to the problems. This is hardly building confidence in the players if they can't defend.

Christ

 

[Chicharo]

Come on!

 

[DevilRed]

Where would we be without Bruno.
