Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United

Gareth Bale would've headed that into the other half of the pitch...

 

You miss the bit where Bale played that through ball to Dele after skipping past a player? Hence heavily involved. Were you watching the game?

Back with the sell Harry Kane stuff again

 

How did he get a shot off there? Dubravka starting his MOTM performance.

 

Standard. Continuing the legacy Krul left behind.

 

You mean the ball that Dele miscontrolled, yet recovered in order to pass it into space to Son? Yes, I was watching, and I was seeing if you were going to take the bait - which you did, while pretending that the pass found Dele just outside the centre circle, meaning that Dele and Son had to do the work for that goal

Yes, back with the obvious double standards in your arguments, which is why you avoided the point about Hojbjerg

 

Unnecessary push by Vinicius there. Gives the defender an easy out, as he was struggling to control it and going nowhere.

 

Would now be a bad time to tell the BBC that this match isn't Penchester vs Brighton? Because their match tracker thinks it is, even though that match doesn't kick off until five hours from now

 

Nice move, but three poor decisions at the end of it. Should've at least got a decent shot off, there.

 

So if Bale doesn’t play that through ball from deep do we still score that goal? And what’s he doing that deep anyway? Bale never gets back, right?

I avoided it because it’s utter nonsense, which I’m sure you’re fully aware of but you enjoy making massive reaches to make warped points of views so it’s easier to just let it slide sometimes. But let’s just sell two of our better players if it makes you happy.

 

Pathetic challenge from Ndombele. Very half-arsed.

 

Lots of possession but few real threats so far and looking jittery at the back.

 

Good of them to prove me wrong ffs

 

Should be 1-0 to Newcastle. Lloris saves well from Gayle and then sits on the follow-up.

 

Sanchez .... mmmmm

 

Our shape is crap. We look like a three at the back when we're defending and everyone's coming central when we attack.

 

Sanchez is having a Sanchez.

 

How is that not a foul on Lo Celso? Blind ****.

 

****ing painful, it really is.

 

We are making Newcastle (2 wins in 18) look good... Manchester City are going to slaughter us in the Cup final

They are killing us down our left, have had the best chances and Sanchez in in full Dier mode

 

Yes we do, because if anyone found Dele in that position he would have played in Son as their right flank was wide open, hence Son was able to make his run into the area unopposed. Also, you might want to double check the clip, since it was Harry Kane pressing the Fulham No.16 that got the ball to Bale and not Bale actually doing this whole "defending" thing

And it's not utter nonsense to highlight the fact you constantly bemoan one player who passes it sideways, yet just as constantly overlook the fact Hojbjerg does the exact same thing, so if Winks is ****e for passing sideways all the time that means Hojbjerg is ****e for doing the same thing no matter what mental gymnastics you have to perform in order to stick with your argument even though your argument clearly has gaping flaws in it that can be summed up by pointing our your argument is demanding we sell Kane and Hojbjerg
