Unfortunately I was right.Its a Goal wrote: We need a bit of creativity to open them up. We won't be able to slice them open with intricate passes as they are using zonal marking and defending deep to neutralize all the spaces we should be using to get into their 18. Eriksen, Dele and Son have to use their trickery a lot in this game if we have any hope of getting a goal..
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Didnt help that we killed our left wing in 2H! Trippier should never be played in that position.

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
I agree. The same mistake MoPo did last season against Chelsea in the Semi-Final of the FA Cup is what he did today. Son is a good Left Wing but never on the defensive side. He doesn't know how to defend one bit. Sacrificing Davies for him was a terrible mistake. He overcompensated for that error in the second half by playing Trippier on the LWB, Sissoko on the WRB and Son in the middle but when it didn't work he moved out Sissoko for Aurier. Davies has to play whenever he is fit unless Rose returns and is back to full fitness.[color=brown]Cristao II[/color] wrote:Didnt help that we killed our left wing in 2H!

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
Seriously why are you guys taking forever to adjust to this field? At this rate Spurs will play Europa with Arsenal next season.

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
Pleased with a point.
Swansea could have stolen 3 points...
We should have been given a penalty.
Poch should rest some of the key players against Barnsley on Tuesday.

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
MoPo was pissed with Mike Dean. He said he couldn't understand how Mike could call the Aurier ball control handball yet failed to see the challenge on Aurier. I have never heard MoPo criticize a ref until today and won't be surprised if the FA charges him for it.

Also, I don't understand why there were non-Spurs supporters at Wembley today?

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
The truth is we didn't do enough to win. The players were below par as we didn't up the energy level to have a real go at them. They looked sluggish. Even Dele, who didn't have a midweek game, looked off pace. Now I am beginning to agree with you that his young #$% should be benched. Let Son take his place, Davis back on the LWB and see how it works.[color=brown]Cristao II[/color] wrote:The calls on the penalties were very irritating!

Dembele was on the bench and I wonder why he didn't play either. He could have come on Sissoko if Davis had started because Trippier was forced on to play LWB just before Aurier was brought on.
I really hope Dele is not believing his own hype and beginning to feel he can't do no wrong.

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
Trippier needs to be permanently benched for Aurier.

Because to drop this many points at home, they have to go to Stamford Bridge, Emirates, Old Trafford, Anfield and Etihad and collect maximum points.

Re: Spurs vs Swansea
It doesn't help when teams sit back and refuse to play. Oh well, onto the next game. Eventually the lads will get used to Wembley sooner rather than later.
