Spurs v Lpool Match Thread - Sun 31st Aug 1.30 SS1

SuprSi

Ade gets around a player, down the line and there's nobody in the box.

Sugarlumps

Me'h, if we could of pulled a goal back at 2-0 then maybe some doubt could of crept in. 3-0...game over. Pool so dangerous in attack, wealth of speed in abundance. They made mincemeat out of both cb's. Moreno looks class.

I've been saying it for ages, Kaboul is totally untrustworthy. I squirm every time he receives the ball. Dawson in disguise. Too early to be playing Pool, hopefully we can shown some character in the returning fixture.

Go again at Sunderland and bounce back.

no heart in this team or pride

The only good thing about today is rose injured, hopefully we never have to se that useless fcuker in a spurs jersey again, Oh wait he got a new contract:eek:

And Townsend if Southampton want to give us 10 million then take it

At least we know top 4 is a pipe dream, Europa league our best chance of getting into champions league, wtf will man city do to us

davycc

well done dowd great call there

Never mind lads...we'll sign Welbeck on loan and be unbeatable!!!

Playing only one up front, allowed Liverpool to play it from the back with ease.

I'm not going to get too despondent over this. Pool weren't great under Rogers in his first season. MP needs time to get them playing in his style and that doesn't happen overnight. They will be plenty of ups and downs this season. Just hope there are more ups than downs.

Outplayed in midfield,Bentaleb does nothing,we need a new striker before window closes.

Out played. Out fought and out manouved. It kills me to say it but Rodgers masterminded the thing. Yes the peno was soft and Townsend is a gonk but they outplayed us in terms of chances and on target shots.

I totally agree with you but for me to get hopeful I really wish he was starting to shift the sh!te, I mean Stevie wonder could have told him Danny Rose is the worst left back in England,

It wasn't Bentaleb, it was Capoue couldn't cope with Sterling. Their diamond shape caused us problems. Kaboul is no longer good enough, just as well we have that new CB. We also need a proven striker

Agreed. I would like to see him offload some of the poorer members of the squad. MP is by no means a saviour, some of his previous signings/judgements have not been great, Osvaldo being a prime example. I think we all want to see a Spurs side that at least pushes the likes the Liverpool in games like this. In the past 3 games with them now we haven't scored and conceded 12. Thats quite hard to take ... but we move on, it's still only August after all!

Me too. Disappointed with reaction after the 2nd goal.
Poch is the man and all that. But at least under Harry if we were down 2 nil at home with 40 mins left you knew we'd give it a go. We haven't looked like that under the last 3 managers.

Your right, twice.


Jesus we have to get rid of Rose, Townsend and Kaboul. The old Kaboul is gone, the other two should take up a different sport.

Our mid field was very poor today.

Pay the fukn money Southampton want and buy MS.

A top striker wouldn't go a miss either.

Lots of people saying that but I thought that deal was dead since this Stambouli bloke is on the way?

Maybe Soton will be mad enough to give us Schneiderlin and take Townsend?

SuprSi

He was on telly yesterday saying his focus is on Southampton now, so I think that one is long gone. Also Koeman said they will not sell him and said that from the very beginning.

And you got your wish!

Delighted after that win, reading some of the comments on here has made it even better. See you all again in February.

This "too early in the season" is not a valid excuse

This was a home game for us and the performance was abysmal.

cant disagree with that point been saying the same myself no heart after the 3rd goal went in-loads of time left for us to try get a goal or 2 back but most our team just played it side to side until the FT whistle went

Never looked like scoring really. I see the pool getting 3rd this season so today's performance in 6th or thereabouts

Yeah the last 10 mins was very lacklustre. A bit of passion and determination and we might have nicked a goal or a peno or something.

Missed the game but heard the ref did us no favours and in the end we looked frustrated, Liverpool did a job on us again. Kaboul's lost that yard of pace he once had? Capoue MIA?

You learn a lot more about your team when you lose. Good timing? Poch / Levy will be on the blower tomorrow....

Tbh I didn't think the ref did anything wrong. It was a blatant dive for the peno, but Dier had his hand on him which gave him the opportunity to go down.

It was just a very poor performance overall with nobody really showing up, and a few looking really poor like Eriksen, Kaboul and Rose.
