[Eza Blade]

Training cones move more in wind than our defence on that goal.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

We can’t tackle, can’t get the ball, forwards not running into space, not closing Spurs down when they’re in possession, it’s going to be a long night.

I forgot, we keep giving them the ball back as well.

 

[Frank the tank]

His knees were bent, making himself a lot smaller. Watch Peter Schmeichel or even David de Gea for how it should be done.

His fucking arms aren't though

 

[paul betts]

Poor goalkeeping there. He has to stand taller than that.

Not knocking Ramsdale too much, but it’s a lesson to learn for him.

Absolute bullshit

 

[Darkoak]

Yes giving ball away all the time

Nothing new there, pal!
As DroitwichBlade says, you’ve clearly not seen many games!

 

[Geordie Blade]

His fucking arms aren't though

I don’t get your point? He should be at full height with arms stretched, not on his knees with his arms straight.

 

[Drunk blade]

Some of our players look like they have never played the game before, the amount of times they have given the ball away is ridiculous

 

[Chilttheblade]

United may have the lowest wage bill in the Premiership but they are still paying them too much

 

[Lawrence]

Who’s the guy training ‘a young’ Brewster, the mind boggles unbelievable.

Give me a go! I’ve got my school boys coaching badge

 

[FredZeppelin]

Hopelessly outplayed, out-paced and out-thought. Spurs win every 50/50 and make sure they get every break of the ball when challenging. We can barely string three passes together. Every third touch is give-away. Nothing up top from Didsy and Brewster.
Apart from that, it's ace!
utb

 

[Geordie Blade]

Absolute bullshit

In what way? I’m definitely not a Ramsdale knocker at all, but I think he should have done a lot better with that. I’m sure our goalkeeping coach will agree too, and I think they’ll go back over it and agree that he could have been bigger. Football is about learning (especially at his age), and that is a case in point.

 

[Blade58]

Some of the lads need to get a couple of steaks down em ffs
How many times have they just stuck a toe out to try and tackle and their player just waltzes through em? It’s nearly every time Spurs come away with the ball ffs

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

It’s just poor isn’t it. We just don’t have the individual talent to play in the Premier League. The collective talent is there under the right manager as we’ve seen and even that has gone against us. We’re dire, as we’ve known properly since October. Sad really.

 

[Frank the tank]

I don’t get your point? He should be at full height with arms stretched, not on his knees with his arms straight.

And what if he knocks it to the side of him while he's stood bolt upright with arms in the air ?
Would look a right twat

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

We’ve got relegation written all over us next season if we appoint this clown. Fucking Beavis and Butthead would do a better job than him and Tindall.

 

[Eza Blade]

When you in under 11s and your mates 7 year old brother gets to come on pitch and is told to run around ans be a nuisance.........the Osbourne role

 

[DroitwichBlade]

Some of our players look like they have never played the game before, the amount of times they have given the ball away is ridiculous

Nothing new here......

 

[saw516]

A goalkeeper should almost never be stood with legs straight, slows your ability to react to a situation dramatically

 

[The Steel Roses]

I’m already looking forward to Pommpey’s My take thread

 

[Blacksea]

Bogle just gets worse with every game,no idea what positives he gives us.He actually looks like a non pro footballer.

 

[BobblesBlade]

I'm convinced Wilder never saw him play before he signed him

I don’t think Wilder wanted him

 

[AdamSufc1997]

No wonder Prince wants recruitment policy changing

 

[Frank the tank]

I don’t think Wilder wanted him

Is that a joke ?

 

[Geordie Blade]

And what if he knocks it to the side of him while he's stood bolt upright with arms in the air ?
Would look a right twat

It needs a star jump, not bolt upright. As it was, he stayed narrow and bent his knees.

 

[Gaini Blade]

Only 1-0 up at the end of the first half? Wouldn't want to be in that Spurs dressing room!

 

[AdamSufc1997]

How we haven't tried a new formation out I'll never know

 

[Chilttheblade]

I don’t think Wilder wanted him

I thought Wilder was in charge of everything at the club,that's why he left when they wanted to reduce his power?

 

[mcbladeface]

What bit of play best sums up that half?

Fleck attempting one of those surging forward runs from last season, going three paces at about 3 mph and then falling over and giving the ball away.

 

[BarcaBlade]

I’m already looking forward to Pommpey’s My take thread

Why wait? Go squeeze out a half-time log and read that.

 

[FriethBlade]

We really are very very poor arent we?

I can honestly say I really don't give a shit what the final score is. The apathy I'm feeling is becoming very worrying
