Stoke City V Spurs.

tippspur

Time to start a thread for this game,Poch says he wants to win the last three games to get into Europe whether it's CL or EL.Stoke away is always tough for any team,a draw for us at best I think.

mushykeogh

2-2 and a pants performance!

2nd Row Donkey

Really hope Harry knocks a few in...

A clean sheet would also be a welcomed change from the norm.

Bret Hart

2-2.

tippspur

Not much left to play for this season but for some reason I'd still like to finish above Liverpool.

same here then at least we could tell rogers he did a spurs after all:D

Stoke has been excellent this season. It's a pity Bojan got injured for them.
Meat and potato game.

Frankly the same line up in midfield every week bores me to tears. Not exactly hard for the opposition manager to work out.

Drop Mason, Stambouli in. I rate Stambouli, he's barely featured. I think he has what it takes for the premiership.

Eriksen badly needs to hit the gym this summer, it's embarrassing watching him tackle. And he's been shíte of late. Modric wasn't exactly a power house, but he wouldn't just let a player waltzed by him. Dembele in for him.

Lloris
Dier - Fazio - Verts - Rose
Lamela - Bentaleb - Bouli - Chadli
Dembele
Kane

He's already done it no matter how the remaining three games go!

I'm considering watching the game but not sure if its worth staying up until 2am for.... I doubt it will be of much entertainment.

2nd Row Donkey

We could probably lose 2 of the next 3 and still secure 7th and the EL next season.

Would love to see Soldado up front with Kane and a bit more of Stambolui and/in Capoue

7th means more games. We don't want that!

IF Eriksen was to be dropped, I'd like to see Lamela in behind Kane. Lamela isn't a winger, but he has some nice touches and 6 assists to his name.

Totally agree, but yet again its the same fúcking predictable line up.

Lloris (C); Dier, Chiriches, Fazio, Vertonghen; Bentaleb, Mason; Lamela, Eriksen, Chadli; Kane

Vorm, Rose, Yedlin, Dembele, Stambouli, Townsend, Soldado.

We have four centre backs in our backline today,should be fun:(

thanks was following it on ssn and they we hadnt a shot even:o

Brittle at the back, nothing going forward at the minute. Predictable and very easy to play against.

No worries, tough viewing so far.

adams the hatcketman bastard

tippspur

Same shyte,had to be that p***k Adam who scored it.

davycc

looks like vertongen asleep at first glance

MrKingsley

This is depressing to be honest and has been since the UTD game.

Lets just leaving all of the under performing midfielders on and change the whole defence......

davycc

fazio flattened adams in a 50/50 ariel duel

masons booked already get stambuli on asap no cover,

nzonzi scored:(:(

MrKingsley

Pathetic

Sugarlumps

Stoke out of sight now. Disaster in all departments. No way back.

davycc

another mess up at the back ffs same old spurs

tippspur

Defence is a joke shop today,you could see it coming a mile away though.

MrKingsley

The more i think about it the more tactically inept this performance has been.

Were playing with Inverted wingers and 4 centre backs.

Yet still concede from 2 hopeful crosses

MonkieSocks

Pooch should have had the Defense sorted by this time.

Inverted wingers hasn't worked and he still sticks with it.

He hasn't been tactically aware on how to change a game plan, when plan A doesn't work.

Stoke have had Ten attempts on our Goal, Six on target.

Long Time Lurker

I have never been a bigger Saints & Swansea fan in my life. We have gotta do a Liverpool and miss Europa League. It's the only way to progress.

davycc

eriksen had a shot! its cool we are going to win 3-2:o

Sugarlumps

Serves the manager for playing him in the first place.

You lot are a disgrace! It won't stop Spurs playing in Europe in all likelihood.

we have been this bad since march the manager continues to pick the same donkey first 11 and stale formation every poxy game:o

inverted wingers me boll0x:eek:

DubPerryman

I hope Chiriches enjoyed his last game in a Spurs jersey. Such a calamity of a player. He's always likely to make four or five fouls in a match, I'm surprised he's not sent off every time he plays!

Sugarlumps

Pochettino's selection looked fúcking clueless from the off, there's a lot of spite involved with selecting the chosen few.

He better ship those outcasts in the summer, and get the right ones in. Otherwise he'll be out the revolving door.

Ah, I see Soldado is coming on, this is always plan B.

davycc

painful watching looks like stoke are going to fill their boots today


soldado on for nasser -hope we go 2 up front and get kane some more goals

MonkieSocks

Soldado Hatrick would go down well now :rolleyes:

Two up front, but only ten on the pitch. A bit gung ho.

We’re 2 Down, I’d go 3 at the back and really have a go at them.


We won't get anything without going for it.

I agree.

Though I'm just observing that we started with 4 centre back and inverted wingers.... And poch waits until we're down to ten men to put two up front. It's nuts.

tippspur

Looks like Southampton are trying to avoid the EL also.

Sugarlumps

Stoke looked in control as they did when we played them earlier in the season. Few pot shots, lot of mincing around, namby pamby, sprinkling of stardust.

Only two games to endure. A grinding season, it can only improve.

tippspur

Imagine we have a right back and a left back sitting on the bench and we played Fcukin Vlad.

Glebee

I still dont believe that Vlads agent actually came out and sais the he was only using Spurs as a stepping stone to get to Chelsea. Hows that coming along Vlad????????, lol... Romania must have a very poor back 4...

MonkieSocks

I think this display is down to the lads staying up late to watch Europa League highlights late on Thursday night.


They looked knackered from the off
