I really don’t care. Maybe if the team played like professionals, they wouldn’t need to be shouted and moaned at so much. It’s up to them and Slot to change the fan atmosphere because right now the majority are sick and tired with what they’re watching.

I don’t think Slot would have been asking them to play that way at the end but that’s the problem. He needs to be more assertive in getting the team to see sence during that time but he’s fannying about thinking of who to sub and what to change around.
He IS however asking them to play like how we were in the first half.
Those injury substitutes didn’t help either because we were actually better 2nd half first 10 with Isak there.

Yes, that is a head scratcher. Ok, you can expect sometimes we see a counter opportunity and play a riskier ball. But if it keeps happening, then just needs someone to slow play and do some triangles.
Against 9 men, Spurs should be doing all the running. Instead, we allow their keeper 15 seconds to launch the ball to the corner (where our full backs are not the tallest), and the ball then ends up in our box causing the panic button to be repeatedly smashed.
Also, leaving gassed players on the ptich, when the opposition has introduced thier fresh new subs and going more physical, is not the best decision.
Good thing is, we picked up 3 points and hopefully the management team can analyse and do some practice drills in training.

Couldn’t agree more. I never want to see a lad injury, but it would really be something to see someone properly deck him.
His antics with Ekitike after his goal should have been punished.

Good result even if the end was a bit nervy, won on the road and we’ve perhaps not gotten points when we should have at other times this season so take it all the way. Hope Hugo can stay fit.

Certainly intentional, maybe in the category of get your elbows out and if you catch a lad in the chops that’s a bonus.

I agree but also would like us to have a bastard like him. Preferably a good footballer also, like Suarez. We’re so fucking nice and soft. No excuse for Frimpong’s meltdown. My 5yo copes better with a bust lip. Hope someone hits him another slap in the changing room

Didn’t notice this at the time but would surely mean Richarlisons yellow should’ve been his second. Spuds lucky not end the game with 7 men

I’m convinced Thomas Frank is responsible for the Spurs shithouse tactics today. He needs calling out for it as well, as a few of our players could’ve been seriously injured. Isak probably is.

A lot of what Spurs were doing was in the category of shithouse, unnecessary late challenges that you have a decent chance of getting away with but you absolutely know that you are going to get away. Sunday league stuff.

Why is he wearing a codpiece ?
Seen loads like him down the years and claiming to speak for the majority is what they always do.

Who actually was injured, Bradley could be tactical.

I wouldn’t say he was trying to injure. Rather he was using the dark arts and it worked well for him.
Dive in box, then the ball falls to him perfectly as he gets up (after the ball runs away from all the defenders trying to get something on it).
Digs Hugo’s face into the grass after he has scored (which caused the non intervention VAR check) which made Dom get a yellow for confronting him.
Swinging his arm in the general direction of Frimpong to get the very reaction he got.
