Delighted to sew Walker back. Its like a new signing

He gets us up the field quickly, badly missed his pace.

Yep....just back for Pantomime Season......HE'S BEHIND YOU :eek:

Can anyone explain the purpose of that substitution! I have no idea of our shape now. Is our manager a tactical genius or Juade Ramos's step brother?

MonkieSocks

Pooch setteling for a1-0 defeat....those subs???

Long Time Lurker

Its so static when we're on the ball. Nobody wants it.

I usually like his Plan A's. Its just that his players seem incapable of executing it. They simply lack the vision and skill set to execute his instructions. That's why I'm reserving judgement till he's had a chance to build his own side.

As for his Plan B though!!!!

Oh and Soldado is gash. We bought a dud and he's never gonna come good. If you were hoping for a lightning bolt to hit him you'd probably get better odds on it than for him to score a goal.

Lights out again.

Another wretched performance tonight, cant see any positives yet under Pocc.

This is why I detest this competition.

A nothing match and a nothing result on a wet Thursday night at the far side of the continent.

And for what... a full squad who prob left London yesterday. match today and back at some stage tomorrow.

Then 1 full day (Sat) to prepare mentally and tactically for Swansea.

We should have sent the a skeleton team and keep the core 15 lads at home. Even Poch could have skipped it if it's within the rules.

What's the surprise here ?

He loves lamela and Lennon is better than paulinho

Another disgraceful performance

I thought we were playing well until they scored, we had chances in the 1st half to put the game to bed. If we draw a semi decent team, we'll be out.

On the plus side, I don't think we'll qualify for the Europa League next year.

oppiuy

Another clueless performance. its like we are still playing under AVB, lots of possession but little or nothing in creativity. I was willing to give Soldado a chance as we haven't created anything for him but while over the last couple of weeks he has played well for the team he keeps fluffing any chance he gets. Its just not gonna happen for him. In Jan we need a reaaly good striker, a modric type player in midfield and someone who is creative and pacy in midfield. I reaaly do not enjoy watching Spurs anymore
