Something has gone seriously backwards from last year.
Last year we could get away with not having possession. It was easier to soak up pressure and move the ball forward with pace. Against top players, if you give them all the possession, they just take the piss. They also defend better. There's not one player in this Tottenham team that wouldn't be considered the best player in the Championship if they were playng for Villa, Leeds, Boro etc.

We get a free kick outside their area a couple of feet from the byline. Two touches and it's back with our keeper. FFS!

Hoilett should have scored then charging in

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Keeper got an important touch on it. Personally thought Hoilett should have trrown himself more at it.

He should have. Had nothing to lose. Get the ball in the net. If you concede a foul, at least you tried.

Bamba is shit at this level

Doing well tho last 10 mins

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Good spell there and a crap pass puts all the pressure back on
-
Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Our positional play and movement off the ball is also poor. When we have possession, the options are very limited.
Have said that, we did just have a nice five minutes. Relatively speaking.

Ralls can do one
Is he undroppable

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Morrison wtf. He's a liability on the deck

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
We look fantastic in white shorts though

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Biggest bonus is we’ve only conceded one with our woeful defending in the opening 25 mins.

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
They just played the Murphy Hoilett chance
Hoilett should have gone in a bit harder looks like he shit out a bit

Are you watching the NBCSN coverage? English commentator, Scottish co-commentator?

Correct, he should have put everything through it. Not committed enough in my opinion.

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Paterson has done really well and Murphy causing problems. Hoilett is getting in good positions but his decision making is miles off. We have a chance 2nd half.

No bein sports With keys and gray. Quite complimentary about us.
We’ve done ok fair play

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Hoilett off Reid on. Swap Murphy and Reid and we may get a point.

Re: TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Apart from Manga and Toilet, we've played well. Manga has been walked past a couple of times. Toilet has wasted good attacks. But we had a good ten minute spell.
Their goal was a fluke. The ball rebounded and fell right at Dier's feet in front of goal.
And we've had chances. Ball cleared off the line. Bamba heading just over. Arter with a free shot on goal but right at the keeper. Murphy with another chance where Lloris had to rush out.
It's been okay so far.
We're going to lose 4-0.

I agree.
Ralls also needs to up his game second half, he's done next to nothing so far. Morrison took a heavy challenge right at the last whistle, then limping down the tunnel.
