Two attacking centre mids and only one position....and I imagine Rooneys taken that position? I'd expect us to play with a centre forward for a start, and a winger on one side then accept that the other "wide attacking midfielder" might be more of an inside playmaker.

Chaaay AFC 357 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 3-0 fantastic goal! Great pressure from Lacazette, lovely pass from Ramsey and a beautiful finish from Welbeck. Such a solid player is Welbeck, gets a lot of unnecessary flack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah totally agree, such a useful player to have though. Amazing how he buries some many difficult chances, but misses so many easy ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,678 Posted September 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted September 9, 2017 Absolutely disgraceful from us today. Three hours of competitive football since our last shot on target apparently. 10 of the starting 11 today signed by Koeman which is why his complaining about the board not getting his targets this summer won't wash with me. This is your team Ronald and if you'd signed someone better than Ashley Williams last summer we wouldn't be looking for another left sided centre back this summer. Whether this is down to Koeman, Walsh, circumstances or something else, we now look like utter mongs signing about 6 attacking players but no striker now being unable to muster a shot on target. Tottenham are a good side and fully deserve this victory, but from our point of view it is not acceptable lose 3-0 at home against anyone without testing the visiting goalkeeper. Results like this, especially when it comes back to back with the similar loss at Chelsea, make a mockery of our stated ambitions as a football club.

Guest Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Andre Carrillo could have made a marvellous play there. Instead makes a short run and skies his shot. Played well overall but I hope Silva remembers that his end shot isn't exactly the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Morata and Azpilicueta have a hard on for each other. They are linking up brilliantly. Nervy at the end but got the result. Defence was solid as well as the midfield, but lacked bite in attack and were careless with the chances we got. Could of scored a couple more but weren't efficient tonight. Thought Leicester despite the penalty, really didn't threaten us. I expect us to use the 3-5-2 frequently this season. Good to see Hazard back and Zappacosta getting minutes. Great 3 points and onto the Champions League. Nice to say that again. Just now, carefreeluke said: Two words N'Golo Kante. Two more words. Tiemoue Bakayoko. Man of the match in my opinion. Him and Kante will be a force to be reckoned with. Great partnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,678 Posted September 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted September 9, 2017 I'd be interested to hear from @Storts but I'd imagine that was probably the biggest gulf in class Spurs have seen between their side and ours since some time in the Moyes era. Can't get over how poor we look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue 971 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 We were so comfortable until that silly but deserved pen. Overall we created several chances to score and should have killed it at 1-2, credit to Leicester for not giving up. Kante and Bakayoko were superb, glad N'golo got the goal and overall a good performance by the team. Qarabag next we should rotate the team and rest the key players for Arsenal. Oh and Morata > Lukaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ 1,919 Posted September 9, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted September 9, 2017 Not good enough. Still haven't been able to name a midfield that isn't makeshift, even despite that I was disappointed by how little we tested Chelsea, was definitely nearer 1-3 than 2-2. Big one next week against Huddersfield. Lose that and I'll have some real concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was dangerous play, he kicks him in the jaw ffs. By the law it IS a red. why do you even want to play with two legs while going for the ball? Do you kick the ball with both the legs at once? People clearly go with two legs only to injure the player no matter where their eyes are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 5,267 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 It's a red, you can't argue about that considering its in the laws of the game. It is however unfortunate considering there was no intent as he was going for the ball, but it was reckless play nonetheless. He really had to give the red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Watford were great today. I definitely didn't see them winning at Southampton. They recorded quite the comfortable victory too as the home side never really threatened much up front. Watford looked a lot better on the ball. Andre Carrillo who is the only reason I'm even watching, was good and gave the opposition trouble but definitely still not at his best. Not at the level when he plays for the Peruvian National Team. Had his fullback well beaten but still yet to create real danger. He's getting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
