Just look at that bench! Have we ever had a stronger one?
Title: Re: Tottenham vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: Demitri_C on October 03, 2021, 01:04:57 PM
Very predictable. I understand why we would stay unchanged but 3 at the back with 2 strikers at spurs i think is a mistake.  Son and moura going to have so much space to run at us.

At least we have a very strong bench

Post by: JJ-AV on October 03, 2021, 01:05:14 PM
To think Bailey is missing too. It's incredible depth.

Regullon, Royal, Dier and Romero starting for Spurs in a back four. That feels like something we can get something from.

Spurs fans seem very happy with their team selection. It should be a good measure to see how far we've really come so far this season. I want to see Ollie being interviewed after the game, holding the match ball and answering questions of how he grew up an Arsenal supporter.

It's going to be a tough game and we need our midfield to battle and get in their faces as they did last weekend.
Title: Re: Tottenham vs Aston Villa match thread
Post by: PaulWinch again on October 03, 2021, 01:38:02 PM
I think that Spurs team looks strong. It would be very typical of Kane to hit form against us.

It could go either way of course, point is though that our team is every bit as good, if not better. First game back in the Prem and despite taking the lead we we were battered that day. We’ve improved hugely, they haven’t at all.

I’d quite like to visit their ground once for a look but the atmosphere sounds quite flat - I used to think WHL sounded good on the box (never been, admittedly). Then again on this showing they haven’t got much to make noise about..

We look easily like we could get something from this. I apologise for saying it in advance.

Slightly better end to the half, no great moves but we are at least getting on end of the second balls from set pieces on edge of the box.

The crowd will get nervous if this stays 1-0 so just got to play on that and keep probing.

Front two been very disappointing though. Just two goals from them all season so both far from undroppable or at least to be subbed.

Watkins, Ings and Ramsey all poor. McGinn given it away too often. Mings getting dragged all over the shop by Son.

This formation is not the way against this Spurs. Interesting to see how long before we change it. 4-3-3 killed them last season pushing Regullon etc back and winning the ball early. Hojberg has been given the freedom of the park.

Overall - shit.

Midfield had been shit, no one able to hold onto the ball or pick a pass.

I got lambasted for suggesting Ings and Watkins doesn’t work, but I still stand by it. They have been making the same runs, running into the same spaces that now both are hesitating for a split second thinking the other one is making the run. They are too similar.

Revert to 4-3-3. Hause, Ramsey and Ings off replaced by Namamba, Buendia and Traore.

Watkins is like a fish out of water, going out left is useless he needs to stay front and centre. Ings has done a lot of work but there seems to be no real supply from midfield. DShas to make changes from the off and not wait til they score again.

Our midfield three aren’t getting any time on the ball and haven’t really got into it. I can’t see how Ings and Watkins will work out as an attacking duo. Together they are less than the sun of their parts. I’d start with one on the bench for a proper option. I think this game would have been the one to try a 4–3-3 again.

It is the sort of game a player coming off with a knock could be a blessing in disguise, forcing the manager to change it around a bit.

With Ramsey on a booking, I would be looking at getting Traore and Buendia and Nakamba on by 60 mins, take Hause, Ramsey and Ings off. Watkins has been crap but would be much better on his own with width around him.

Real lack of connectivity between our midfield trio and the two strikers compared to last two games.

This is why smith gets so many people on his back. Too slow to make changes and stubbornly continues three at back

In game is always his achilles heel.

Changing the system would have given us more of a foothold.

Someone like Tuchel would've changed system at HT like when he hooked that guy on his debut and brought Jorginho on, I think Smith just isn't ruthless enough and doesn't want to upset people.

We’ve gone from a team who like a proper force to one that looks like it’s just happy to make up the numbers.
Our attitude hasn’t looked right today. We have been second to most balls and looked bullied by Spurs….bullied by fucking Spurs.

Purely from the Bet365 feed, seems like they had a goal kick, two free kicks and three corners in injury time and the referee added on precisely three seconds for them.

According to the feed timer, he blew the whistle on 4’55”, so not even that.

Defence was all over the shop today they passed through us with ease. What is it with DS and waiting for the sixty minute mark to make changes. We are far too inconsistant.
