goon I think he'd be more inclined to if we had better options available, remember how he emptied the bench at Old Trafford earlier this season?

goon

RocktheCasbah and it arguably backfired. It also made the Brighton game more nervy than it needed to be.

But yeah I do agree. The lower the quality gap the easier it is to make a change without unsettling the side so you're not wrong. Maybe you'd have seen Martinelli or Eddie come off earlier if ESR was full up to speed.

Don Pacifico

RocktheCasbah Why on earth would you film that and then upload it to the internet...? There's some real self-loathing going on there.

Imagine being a Spurs fan listening to the guy in front of you film so cringey commentary on the game...

RocktheCasbah

goon yeah, it did. But whilst I thought it was rash at the time, I also liked the fact that he was bold enough to do something like that at the time, because like everyone else, I also worry about his use of the bench 🙂 .

Xhaka has played well this season, and he gives us some much needed physicality in midfield. His spot is probably the easiest potential upgrade in the team, but he is more than good enough atm.

Pepe LeFrits definitely. The way we are setup to play our 4 attackers will always be the most tired.

Which is why someone pacy and technical/direct like Mudryk or any other alternative was so important to our plans. And we have to quickly invest to capitalise on this amazing title chance or we will all be discussing about regrets for the next decade again

Gurgen
it all comes down to finishing. it's the same problem i have with jesus, but he brings so much more to the team's game. eddie is suppose to be a finisher though, that's his value.

Qwiss

Gunner89 totally agree. If Jesus put in that performance he'd be hailed for it and we'd be saying the lack of a goal doesn't matter

RocktheCasbah

I mentioned Merse in Sky's studio yesterday. Unfortunately I can't find a clip of Jamie Redknapp getting so upset with him before the game that he almost started crying, but here are some of his highlights...

USArsenal

Richarlson whining about how Ramsdale 'disrespected us' almost saying that he got what he deserved with the fan that kicked him. Talk about hypocrisy, with Richarlson being one of the most disrespectful players out there.

QuincyAbeyie

He also refused to shake Martinelli's hand after the game due to Martinelli diving (according to him).

He's pretty much the quintessential Tottenham player. He's even followed Harry "I swear on my daughter's life" Kane by saying that losing the world cup was worse than losing a family member. These guys would sacrifice their family members for a trophy or a goal.

😂 Merse using "cuffing" to mean "doing things off the cuff" …

Article in the Athletic on our play vs Tottenham. I'm not cutting and pasting because the best part is an animation that won't carry, but if you can get through the paywall it's worth looking at:

RowJimmy Yeah this is a great article. Another one that's damning for Conte too. And another reminder of how central Saka is to everything.

Someone has archived it so anyone can read it here: https://archive.md/xGioi 🤫

Clrnc

Haha. Time to bring his pub down this coward

Qwiss

Thats not the real Ben Gibbard!
