OrangeKhrush 298 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Tricky game away to Wolves who have been better than predicted. Quite a few knocks to deal with at the moment and the next international break is coming quite fortuitously. Anderson (back spasm) Miley (conjuctivitis) Isak (groin) Murphy (dislocated shoulder) Botman (arrow to the knee) Barnes (turf toe) on the upside Willock and Joelinton have returned from injury but will be a bit behind the pace and need to be managed. I think we will need to rest Burn and Trippier and give Targett and Livramento a game this weekend, Lewis Hall may also need to play here. A win on the road would be ideal but it will be tough.

Administrator Stan 18,394 Posted October 27, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted October 27, 2023 Spurs 2nd goal was very nice. Looks like the Palace goal hit Ayew's hand off his chest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,394 Posted October 27, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted October 27, 2023 I thought if it hit the hand of the goalscorer it's disallowed, intentional or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,394 Posted October 27, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted October 27, 2023 Good win for Spurs considering the first half no-show. 5 points clear. @Storts with no Europe and a decent squad, do you think there's enough in you to mount a title challenge? This is the kind of win you'd see from such sides that just grind out and do enough to get 3 points, entertaining or not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s fine, the manager is great, the togetherness is fantastic, the signings we made this summer are truly excellent, the football is fun to watch, and it feels like we’ve got back the club our fanbase needs. Likeable players, good football and just a little bit of hope. Injuries to any of our big players would be costly, Son, Maddison, Romero, Van de Ven, Bissouma. We would struggle losing that quality but just going to enjoy it. Also how incredible to get Bentancur back tonight. Bloody love that man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted October 28, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted October 28, 2023 That's pretty much my exact stance on Spurs. You can't knock really anything about them at the minute but I'm a long way from considering them serious contenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody love that man Yeah and I'd suspect Maddison is the most likely to suffer an injury given his history. But it seems like there's a feel-good factor about Spurs again with how you're playing and how Postecoglou has changed the culture already.

The Palace Fan 3,405 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 https://twitter.com/fabrizioromano/status/1718029578180964434?s=46&t=dPwKz1G6m-ssxTKhWI6_dw I get he's frustrated at the lack of transfer activity but if hes going to take punches at anyone its the senior players who were at fault for the goals and (I'm presuming) his decision to play musical statues whenever Vicario has the ball at 2-0 down. Franca didn't have the impact I had hoped for but it seems harsh on Rak-Sakyi whose been regularly putting in the work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,207 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Was always going to be interesting to see how Roy goes from messiah who comes in and gives a good time to a long-term solution at a club that originally wanted him gone. Looks like cracks are starting to show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,207 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Chelsea could be 2-0 up here. We’ve been pinned back too much and theyre playing good football. Wouldn’t surprise me if we eventually switch to a 433 as their defence is there to be hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re bloody awful. Let my bet down as well by not even scoring. I thought it was a bit tight of Mbeumo not to pass the ball back to Maupay to give him his first goal since he returned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,207 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Obligatory 3 points collection from Chelsea completed. Tight at times and Chelsea could have scored but ultimately a deserved win and job well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,207 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Pinnock, Ajer, Norgaard and Mbeumo all with strong performances today. Ajer consistently overlapping from RCB, brilliant signing and glad he’s staying fit enough to take advantage of these opportunities. Norgaard was so good in midfield, breaking play up but importantly keeping possession, acting as a springboard to get the team up the pitch. Pinnock just an absolute man mountain with velvet on his boots, lovely goal taken well. A word on Neal Maupay too, he has been brilliant since resigning and we are really getting the best out of him. Glad he feels back at home, let’s get him on a long-term contract and get him scoring 15-20 a season. It’s definitely in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
