Great. Now Camarasa is injured.
Think Spurs have harder training sessions than this!!
More straw clutching, but Hoilett has been a plus since he came on - more threat up front and more protection for Cunningham.
Left at half time today, awful. Worst performance of the season.
I thought we were going to be playing 2 up front when I saw the team sheet. But Paterson out on the wing? And Reid up front on his own? WTF?
If the thinking is that Paterson could dominate Rose in the air then that was pretty daft.
As you say, Paterson and Reid were both in the wrong positions and so contributed almost nothing. It is hardly their fault although Reid has been a disappointment since arriving at the club.
Surely that’s a penalty?
Far worse than Morrison on Maddison on Saturday
Ralls just hoofs it. Seems to lack composure in this league. Hoilett has looked bright.
Hopefully keep it at 3-0 maximum. Was looking like any score after half hour.
A very good side are Spurs but it's been disappointing from Cardiff
Thought the 4th official would have had a bit of season spirit and not added any more time on 😂
Could’ve been a lot worse
Embarrassed on national TV on both sides of the Atlantic. And elsewhere.
One of the match reports...
All of Cardiff's signature solidity and emboldened defending went out the window, as all 11 players set about the pitch like a group of (hungover) headless chickens.
we have all seen soft pens like that given...
the lad grabs enough of gunnars shirt for him to lose footing and force him into a slip, tough lad like gunnars is not looking for the pen but they have been given like that in the past... nowhere in the rule book does it say you can put your hands on a player grab enough of his shirt give it a decent tug and bring a player down, thats a foul
soft but if it was us and they had been awarded a pen for the same soft trick we would all be moaning about it in reverse
game wise we never had chance to show up... spurs way too well equipped for the likes of us, they can put 3-5 goals on anyone, when they started rolling in i thought it would be far worse outcome... kanes goal was a pinball scrappy mess, eriksen composed himself well for his goal, but we had like 4 players in the area plus keeper...
hey ho on to the next game we go
Never a pen for me. Thought it was a corner though. And I’m sure that’s what Gunnar was appealing for.
That was more of a buffet than it was a football match. We were horrible at the back in the first half. Delivery at set pieces was shite-what do they do in training? And why was there a small child up front chasing around? The gulf in class means that the above is probably irrelevant in any case but we really didn't give a good account of ourselves today. Awful. But in the grand scheme of things, probably irrelevant. Bring on Huddersfield.
How much different was that to the Wolves game for Spurs? Listening to the pundits and it sounds as if Spurs dominated the first 45 minutes last Saturday, managed to score only one and then ran out of steam and were run ragged by Wolves. Our school-boy defending meant that we never found out if we could put them under pressure in the second 45 minutes but there was a 7-9 minute period before their second goal where they looked a little dodgy in defence.
We weren't able to cope with their attack in the first half and this was made far worse by defensive errors to give them 2 goal head-start. We can't do that at this level but second home game in a row that it's happened. It just seemed to be the same ball over and over and it seemed to undo us time and time again.
One positive I can find is that fans made more noise as game wore on. Vital that fans drive the team on and see the long season ahead. Further positive is that only Liverpool now can do that type of performance to us at home.
No way was that a penalty. Those who think so are clutching at straws. We were totally outplayed, offered nothing and frankly embarrassed on national TV. However, after 15 minutes I thought the score could be in double figures by the end of the match so I am consoling myself with that thought.
