    I'm always just nervous these days when sitting on a one goal lead. Just takes one brain dead mistake, or a quick attack/long range strike for things to fall apart. Would be nice to keep a clean sheet, and get a few goals up.

    Yep, looked Ali tried to get the refs attention to it after also, but nothing happened

    He's had these recurring hamstring issues, so I'd say that's making him very conscious of putting too much into it.

    Could well be 1-1



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,539 ✭✭✭✭rob316

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,065 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE

    Jaysus lads...we are ****.

    Just so slow..lacking real ambition..creative little flicks ..but in our own half.

    And this is a slightly improved version of earlier in seaon .

    Slot is just too conservative as a Pool manager .

    We are at home verus Spurs...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 210 ✭✭DRedSky


    Wow, we are even able to make Spurs look decent.

    Rio had some lovely moments. Very exciting. Not quite with the end product yet.

    Midfield playing well, pressing very well.

    Spurs managing to get 10 or 11 players into their box most of the time, so it’s not easy to break them down. They’ve also got in a lot of good blocks. And with us pushing forward so much, we’re naturally vulnerable on the break. A counter attack to their counter attack is how i’d see us scoring again. But very important we get the next goal, need to start the second half fast and lively.

    We've been poor TBH.

    Spurs still in this.

    McAllister has been very bad. Slowing everything down and making poor decisions.

    Rio has been very good.

    Puke football. Walking pace



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 1,933 ✭✭✭Appletart Upsetter


    It is tough to break down a low block and teams seem very good a playing this way in the Premier League now.

    Unfortunately, we don't have a Mane or Diaz that can create something out of nothing, nor do we have Salah of 5 years ago. So we need to do everything at a much higher intensity to create some chances. That's my biggest concern, the lack of intensity in our play. I'm not sure if it's a coaching issue or a result of the profile of player in the team. Maybe a bit of both.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,371 ✭✭✭brevity


    I thought that Jones and Wirtz had built up a bit of a partnership in their area of the pitch, not sure why Slot hasn't developed that.

    Hard watching at the moment, what's more, the players seem to be running into each other even more 🤷🏼‍♂️



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,603 ✭✭✭Dr Robert


    Get Ekitike on for Gakpo



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,690 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    Never a pen. Disappointing to see



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,218 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Surely the ref has to make a call there because it's either a pen or a dive

    I don't care about the long throws but the amount of time wasted setting them up is ridiculous



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭The Rooster


    There was definite contact on Rio. Carra makes it very easy for VAR. He should listen to Gary Neville re how a biased co-comm is supposed to hell influence VAR!

    Ah, should have hit the target there Rio. But he’s very dangeorus



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,547 ✭✭✭kingshankly


    Liverpool are shocking lads spurs should at least be level



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,218 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Ali saving us twice in two mins



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,849 ✭✭✭✭noodler


    I'm worried for Wednesday even moreso now.

    Where is the impetus for overturning a deficit going to come from



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,924 ✭✭✭Damien360


    Honestly, if we get past Gala, I think that's as far as we will go. We are making very hard work of Spurs. We are all at sea for every corner.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,406 ✭✭✭shamrock55


    I honestly cant take this **** any longer.

    We are the most boring clueless outfit in the lge bar none

    Id rather watch wolves or burnley anyday



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,445 ✭✭✭facehugger99


    This is crunch time for Slot.

    3 points here is an absolute minimum and then beat Gala Wednesday.

    We do not look good.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,690 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    Brilliant from Rio there. Created the pass
