Same again please
-
Just look at that bench! Have we ever had a stronger one?
-
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
-
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.
-
I would be chuffed to win this. Bench looking much stronger
Come on villa boys

-
Smith doing the right thing and keeping Hause in.
-
As expected, happy with that.
Same again please
Yes please!
-
Dire is playing. Shame Dele Alli isn’t
-
Come on you Lions! Let's stick it to the London Media Mafia again! Ings has a good record here, I see...
-
They don't have many players now I'd swap for one of ours in a similar position.
-
Can't believe the odds. Spurs are 2.0 and we're 3.75. How on earth do they get that?

Win please Villa.

Hehe, or more Villa fans doing emotional hedging than Spurs ones.

Compare the team and squad now to the first game back in the Prem:

That is one average team compared to this one
-
That's quite the difference. Makes you realise how much 'he' carried that team.
-
Anyway, FOYS. Let's beat these wankers.
-
Happy enough with that. Good options from a strong bench.
-
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.
-
I think that Spurs team looks strong. It would be very typical of Kane to hit form against us.

On paper they look strong. First goal is going to be so important today.
-
Decent team and formation. If its not broke........
-
Watkins to find his scoring boots today.
-
A draw would be a good result.
-
A draw would be a good result.
A win would be a good result.
-
Any news on when Trezeguet might be back?
-
COME ON, YOU VILLA BOYYYYYS!!!
-
Mings winning the ball back on their 18 yard line. Playing a high line today then! :)
-
All Villa so far.
-
Son is such a good player. I'd rather have him than Kane.
-
This lot look absolutely shit, nothing to fear today.
-
Three fouls by McGinn in about an many minutes. He'll be in the book next time.
-
This lot look absolutely shit, nothing to fear today.
Risso, please don't make me hope.
-
Why did Mings just hoof that in the air?
-
This lot look absolutely shit, nothing to fear today.
Risso, please don't make me hope.
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.
-
Mings keeps hoofing it.
-
Mings distribution today not been very good so far.
-
Well done ings
-
Well done ings
Sobered up a little after ManUre?
-
Pressure from Spurs because our defence can’t pick a pass at the moment.
-
All Villa so far.
Spurs coming into it.
-
Think final third look a lil sloppy
Well done ramsey
-
Isn't our historical record against teams that played Europa League on the Thursday generally appalling?
-
C’mon boys step it up a bit.
-
FFS Watkins.
-
Really poor from watkins there
-
I'm surprised Watkins has been called up, he looks weeks off the pace.

Ha yes thou I've had a shite week . Maybe the emotions of villa winning took over .

Watkins needs to learn how to pass.

Don't post. ;D
-
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.
-
Very poor from cash there. Rash slide in that wasnt needed

Thanks mate, hope you're well ;)
-
Keep it tight till HT .. hit them second half
-
Shit.
-
Ffs
-
Bollocks! What a stupid goal to let in.
-
Shite
-
Terrible defending. Useless McGinn.
-
That was coming.
-
Bollocks
-
Fuck off. I know a lot of people have a particular hatred for 'Utd' but it's Spurs for me. HATE them.
-
Utter shite
Its been coming
-
Too easy
-
Rubbish
-
Fuck, that came about because they were winning all the physical battles.
-
Hopefully that wakes us up a bit - way too sloppy in the middle of the park. Too many gaps in front of the defence.

Hit them in the 1st half then smash the shit out of them in the 2nd.
-
This formation is *OK* but it’s doing fuck all for Ollie and Ings.
-
We’ve been chasing shadows for 20 mins now.
No one able to hold onto the ball and nothing in their half for ages.
-
The ridiculous pro spuds commentary is not helping my mood.
-
After decent opening 10 minutes we've looked appalling
-
Jesus fucking wept that was soft. Sort it out Dean!
-
That was coming.
I blame Risso and his fate tempting posts earlier. :( ;)
-
We have been hopeless. Absolutely hopeless in the final 3rd
-
Second on all balls in midfield and deflection on most balls
-
Our passing has been bloody sh&&te
-
I blame our shit fucking passing.
-
Ollie so off
-
Too many long hit and hope balls.
We have stopped passing it.
-
Yellow for Ramsey.
-
Ramsey having a mare today
-
I'll be amazed if we finish this game with 11 players still on the pitch.
-
They’re finding the gaps, and we can’t even find each other.
-
Let's be honest, we've been very flat. Pressed o.k but no decent moves so far and hit and hope in final third. Miles off last week's standard.
Game far from over but think this one will be how good DS is at using the options off the bench second half.
-
Huuuuge gaps in our midfield now......
-
Why dive in there Jacob?
-
Cash with another crap tackle that misses.
Sort it out ffs matty
-
That was close by Mings, he almost didn’t get out of the way of the goal.
-
That was coming.
I blame Risso and his fate tempting posts earlier. :( ;)
I’d blame myself for saying we were looking good but my… method of watching this perfectly legitimately… is quite behind.
-
I don't think any of our players are having a good game yet
-
Ramsey has been dreadful today. Looks like a young player having an off day.
-
Ollie watkins has been complete dog shit whats thw natter with him??
-
Ings scored in his last 6 at WHL....
-
Ramsey has been dreadful today. Looks like a young player having an off day.
Question is how long before acting upon it
-
Knew we'd do this today. Team are making steady progress, but keeping momentum going is the next step.
Should be battering this lot... Take Kane and Son out of that team and they're garbage.
-
McGinn having a mare
-
Ings and watkins isnt working for me. They just have no good linkup play whatsoever
-

They haven't taken Kane and Son out of the team, though.
-
We are playing as if we didn't expect Spurs to be so aggresaive off the ball.
-

-
Watkins and McGinn having stinkers so far, we look all over the place.
-
McGinn as poor today as he was great last week.
-
Ollie so off
Terrible, first touch needs a lot of work
-
A bit too much to hope for a win at Old Trafford and wherever Spurs play now?
No shots on target....
-
Losing the second and third balls
-
Ollie watkins has been complete dog shit whats thw natter with him??
He's had a slow start to the season for sure, not helped by getting injured in pre-season.
He needs a goal to get his confidence back.
-
There's some terrible decision-making out there. Really bad.
-
This front two isn't really working.
-
Fucking hell Ramsey.
-
Midfield is weak today ..mcginn n Ollie very poor ..still can get something thou
-
If he doesn’t wake up in the next ten minutes then swop him with Nakamba at halftime. The lad has been awful so far.
-
Ramsey has been awful. So bad
-
Wtf was that
-
Fucking hell Mings, etc.
-
Hoping we turn up second half.
Ramsay and Watkins off for Buendia and Traore please.
-
Nakamba n buendia half time please
-
the lot have been poor - huge kick up the arse needed at HT
-
They all been on the piss last night?
-
This performance has been pathetic. Mings wtf
-
Mings wtf.
-
Ramsey has been no worse than McGinn.
-
I think they must have read the pre match thread,
-
I’d bring Traore on, if he’s fit.
-
Watkins and McGinn having stinkers so far, we look all over the place.
Nobody is having a good game at present, can't help but think Ings looks out of place in this formation despite results of late. Another Mings howler albeit out of the danger area.
-
Great pas to targett
-
I’d go 4-3-3, take Hause and Ramsey off, bring Buendia and Traore on.
-
We’re stuffed here.
-
Targett took a knee to the head there.
-
This will show us Dean's mettle. I hope he has the balls to make some changes at half time. We have been rank for the last half an hour.
-
Had Targett gone down after his first touch we'd have had a penalty.
-
Front two not given us anything much today, Ollie hold up been abysmal.
Buendia for Ramsey seems an obvious early change to me given he's on a yellow now.
-
I don't think deep crosses or set plays will bring us much joy vs Nuno's White Wolves.
-
Ramsey has been awful. So bad
Still trying to work out why Ramsey is so highly rated. No goals. No assists.
-
We haven’t had a single corner or free kick hit a Villa player yet. Murphy was right, MacPhee out! ;)
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
-
Watkins just shoot. Stop taking so many touches.
-
This will show us Dean's mettle. I hope he has the balls to make some changes at half time. We have been rank for the last half an hour.
He almost never does unless somebody has a complete El Ghazi style nightmare.
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
If you're taking one of them off, it would be Watkins on this showing
-
Close mcginnn..Watkins too slow
-
There is always so much space between the front two, they may be on the same pitch but nowhere near the same wavelength.
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
I’ll be honest, Ings is starting to look like a panic buy to placate the fans when Greasy was sold.
-
Watkins looks really shit with two up front. Taking two many touches drifting all over the place.no interlinking with ings at all
-
Hause our best player
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
I’ll be honest, Ings is starting to look like a panic buy to placate the fans when Greasy was sold.
No chemistry whatsoever between him and Watkins
-
Great tackle Konsa.
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
It hasn't worked in any of the games they've played together which isn't many to be fair. They haven't developed any sign of a understanding which surely they've been working on at Bodymoor?
-
I'd have Archer on for Watkins, but I would.
-
Ings and Watkins have been dismal. Proper 3/10 performance from both of them. Not helped by the midfield though.
-
I like Ings' workrate but that's the only positive I can see so far.
-
I'd have Archer on for Watkins, but I would.
So would I as it goes
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
I’ll be honest, Ings is starting to look like a panic buy to placate the fans when Greasy was sold.
Southampton must be having a larrrf having robbed us off £25M.
-
Piss poor.
Ramsey and watkins have been dog shit
-
Ings isn't getting a great deal of service to be fair.
-
They have a player pushed onto Dougie and the game isn't going through our midfield. Defence can't seem to find an out ball and the front two can't make it stick.
Poor stuff and they're no better either.
-
We'll see the best of Ings when Bailey and Buendia are in the side
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.
I’ll be honest, Ings is starting to look like a panic buy to placate the fans when Greasy was sold.

I can't tell if you're joking? Do you really think that Ings isn't worth £25m in today's market? I find that bizarre if so.
-
The only positive is that we are only 1-0 down but Dean needs to knock some heads together at half time. It's been a shocker against a side who have stunk the place out for weeks.
Come on Dean sort this out!
-
They all been on the piss last night?
Certainly playing like a pub team.
-
I'd take Ollie off but dean will think it will fuck his England time up ... He needs to stop the extra touches ....
-
No fluidity to the movement, no runs off the ball like previous matches. Game plan isn't working, can anybody remember DS changing things for the better at half time and it being a success?
On that showing I can only see us chasing the game in the second and being caught out, looks like a 2-0 final score for me.
-
Watkins and Ings is not working.

Brentford too
-
Luiz just swapped shirts at half time
-
First 10 was great but we allowed them to get a foothold.
Ramsey and McGinn are lively but making errors all over the place.
Poor display so far.
-
In other news .. Newcastle must be shitting it ,no way are Brentford going down
-
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.
-
Get buendia on for ramsey
We don't need three cbs bring in nakamba for hause too
-
Spurs, probably the better team but only slightly, have had one good chance and they've taken it. We've had a few half-chances but nothing clear cut. Watkins has been shit, as has McGinn. The aggression from last week at Old Trafford hasn't bee there since the first ten minutes. Maybe they're knackered.
-
Better end to the first half.
Time for Dean to earn his money at HT.
I’d like to see Bert and Buendia get some minutes.
-
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.
-
It’s all a bit Wimbledon, throw-ins & corners. We’ve taken all the creativity out of the team. We can’t keep the ball & put 3 passes together.
-
I'd take Ollie off but dean will think it will fuck his England time up ... He needs to stop the extra touches ....
That's a sign of lost confidence. It's not instinctive and decisive.
Midfield has got to improve though. Strikers need service and this 3 have given none so far.
-
Ings has had some good flashes and phenomenal moments but whole half-hour stretches can pass him by. Watkins has just looked off the pace a bit, and their link up hasn't really clicked.
-
Ings and Watkins have been dismal. Proper 3/10 performance from both of them. Not helped by the midfield though.
Is the correct answer.
Midfield had been shit, no one able to hold onto the ball or pick a pass.
For me, either Ings or Ollie off, I don’t which one, and bring Traore on…Somme who can carry the ball and spot a pass.
-
A bit better after the goal, but far from good enough, Dean seems to spend most of his time complaining to the 4th official, needs to concentrate on what the team are doing.
-
0 zero shots on target. >:(
-
Service to the front two non-existent because the game is totally passing our midfield by. Awful defending for their goal to leave him unmarked.
Crowd is a dead as a doornail bar moaning about Cash's throws. Pull one back and they'll creak.
-
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.
-
Spurs, probably the better team but only slightly, have had one good chance and they've taken it. We've had a few half-chances but nothing clear cut. Watkins has been shit, as has McGinn. The aggression from last week at Old Trafford hasn't bee there since the first ten minutes. Maybe they're knackered.
Knackered? Spurs have played twice since our last game.
Let's not make cheap excuses. We've been poor and must get better surely?
-
Rotten so far. Can't really point at the formation to be honest. Too many players just off form.
-
to be that shite and still be in the game... that means they're just as shite as we were; if we sort it out with a few changes we can get something here.
-
Spurs are doing a Villa to us. Pressing and giving no space. Nuno has done his homework.
-
Everyone poor. Difficult to think it's the same team as last week.
Hopefully a tactical change by Deano in the second half. Villa fans quiet.
-
Well let's see if the manager has enough nous to change it around and players have enough character to turn it around on the pitch.
-
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.
-
Best part of the game was every time a cloud hoved into view to block the sun.
-
Michael Owen has just stated that Vardy never fails to disappoint. Not a fan then.
-
Hause our best player
And one of the most likely to be replaced I'd say..
It's not working today, so many players off the pace.
Double change at break for me. Nakamba and Traore on , Hause and Ramsey off. Watkins to the left off a front three.
-
Any subs?
-
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.
-
Best part of the game was every time a cloud hoved into view to block the sun.
Players blocking Son would have been better.
-
It’s all a bit Wimbledon, throw-ins & corners. We’ve taken all the creativity out of the team. We can’t keep the ball & put 3 passes together.
We seem to be hoofing it from the back, trying to think if we managed to string more than two passes together. Horrible to watch especially as Spurs are winning every ball we launch in the air.
-
Best part of the game was every time a cloud hoved into view to block the sun.
Players blocking Son would have been better.
Very good.
-
Think McGinn's been our best player again.
I know he sort of gave the ball away for the goal but he did well to win it but no one came short to receive it.
Real lack of connectivity between our midfield trio and the two strikers compared to last two games.
Infact watching this you'd never know we've just had 8 days off and had two excellent results, we look out there just as out of form as Spurs have been.
-

Players blocking Son would have been better.
Eclipses all posts so far today.
-
No subs then.
Hopefully not saying it at 70th minute mark when we're 2 down.
-
Kane has not scored a PL goal this season.
-
Better
-
Shot on target from Targett
-
Kane has not scored a PL goal this season.
Ffs! Why would you say this? Why???
-
Still think we'll get a draw. Spurs will get edgy as the half goes on.
-
Kane has not scored a PL goal this season.
Ffs! Why would you say this? Why???
Jesus...
-
It would be interesting to know the amount of completed passes between Ings and Watkins in the minutes they've been on the pitch. I'd guess less than 10.
-
Jesus has scored a few
-
Still think we'll get a draw. Spurs will get edgy as the half goes on.
We won’t
-
We don’t look that up for it. C’mon Villa make me eat my words. Spurs are dog turd as well, there for the taking if we fancied it.
-
Why can't we play the Spurs from the Arsenal game ffs. They are all at it today.
-
Hoof hoof.
-

Yep not gelling at all.
Great defending hause
Martinez with save. Getting batteted
Change it smith NOW FFS
-
Change it Dean. Change. It.
-
Still think we'll get a draw. Spurs will get edgy as the half goes on.
We won’t
No chance
-
Switch it up Dean. Take it to them.
-
Come on smith sort this fuckin shit out. We look even woree than 1st half
-
Jesus has scored a few
Not good with crosses though.
-
we ain't scoring today
-
Ramsey has to be stronger there.
-
If he going to take a defender off. Then make it hoofer Mings.
-
Ramsey wasnt fouled for me just sloppy
-
My son is at Spurs, and he has messaged “we are rubbish.” Maybe a job as a sports writer may not be his calling, thankfully he’s not taking English at A level 😆
But Come on Villa!
-
Got to change something. This isn't working.
-
DS needs to change this before we’re 2-0 down.
-
Come on smith fucking change this.
Hause makes a clanger should be 2-0
-
We clearly need another midfielder in there, they're just picking it up and running at our back line.
-
CHANGE THE FUCKING MIDFIELD.
-
Weren't we shit v Everton until the subs? Hopefully we can get a similar impact with a change... sadly Bailey not an option
-
Fucking awful pass there from Ollie. He needs a goal for his confidence
-
Stop chatting up the 4th official Dean and change it.
-
Piss poor pass from Watkins to Targett. How has Dean not looked at this shambles and made a change yet?
-
Watkins has been shit. Drop him next game
-
And Watkins has been absolutely dire.
-
Got to get Traore and Buendia on here surely.
-
And Watkins has been absolutely dire.
Looks like he is sulking to me.
-
Dean getting upset with the challenges, but the fact is they are out-muscling and bullying us.
-
Cant see players even warming up.
-
What a absolute waste cash ffs
-
Stop fucking moaning Smith and do your job. Make changes.
-
Kane is the biggest diver in the league.
Son has fucking battered us.
-
FFS, should have been a goal for Son.
-
The ref is moving up the bias gears.
-
Making a fucking change Smith you nobber.
-
Honestly what the fuck are you doing smith. Makr a fucking change. Getting battered
-
This is getting the point of being absurd - why isn't he making a change?
-
This is horrible Villa. Fucking horrible.
-
FFS, should have been a goal for Son.
Straight over the top too. Pathetic.
-
Come on Dean how much more do you need to see.
-
We need Nakamba in there to sort that midfield out. It's non-existent at the minute, and only a matter of time before they put this game to bed.
Fuck sake Smith - CHANGE IT!
-
Dreadful McGinn. That would have another goal down to him, he’s been shit today as well.
-
Spurs are poo apart from Son. But we’re showing absolutely zero intelligence or confidence.
-
bag of wank so far - Smith needs to change something ASAP.
-
WHAT THE FUCKING HELL WAS THAT RAMSEY? Sheesh.
-
This is fuckin shit.
-
What is wrong with Cash? Everything is over hit or misjudged today.
-
Final ball is shite
-
All the subs sat motionless and fully coated up on the bench.
-
Cash wtf was that
Omg smiths showing why people get pissed off with him
-
This is the biggest flaw of Dean. Too slow.
-
We really are shit.
-
FFS, this is getting worse.
-
We’ve made a real dogs dinner of our passing today.
-
Spurs are one of the few clubs I just don't like.
We need to be doing better.
-
Proper preparation prevents piss poor passing
-
Ramsey and Watkins off please.
-
We are never getting anything out of this game it’ll be 2-0 or 3-0.
-
Buendia thank fuck
-
Need subs now ...
-
Hause > Mings...... HOOF..... Spurs back in possession....and repeat! FFS!
-
If the players out there suddenly stop being able to control or pass the ball, that's not Dean's fault, but he can PUT SOME OTHER ONES ON.
-
Traore for cash wtf??
-
Is he really going to wait until its 2-0?
-
We can score here ..need resh legs
-
We're basically Stoke under Pulis today.
-
The only thing worse than our passing is our shooting. I’m not normally a whinger but a) I don’t like Spurs and b) this is really poor.
-
0 shots on target
-
Passing accuracy so far today -
Cash - 56%
Mings 62%
Ings 57%
Terrible, terrible, terrible
-
Goal?

Yessd

Gooooooaaaaaaallllll!!!!!!!!!

Watkins!! (Waits for VAR...)
-

Thank fuck ..now a second

First decent attack, goal!
-
Yessss
-
Olliee!!!

GETTTTT INNNNN!!!!!
-
Confirmed?
-
Its been given. Get in!
-
Yessssss. Spurs are cack. Let’s get after it now.
-
Ollie!!!!
No let’s muller these duckers.
-
What a ball from Targett, pinpoint, I’d have scored from that.
-
Good advantage by the ref.
Hopefully that perks Ollie up. He’s been poor this season so far.
-
GET IN OLLIE!!! I take it back.
-
Confirmed?
Yep great goal
-
Don’t balls it from here Villa.
-
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees !
Finally one of the central defenders stepped up in to midfield. Well done Konsa for taking some initiative.
-
It's all been a plan
-
Shout the moaners up who wanted Ollie off 5 mins ago
-
Reckon he's lucky that wasn't red awful challenge.
-
Ramsey and Watkins off please.
I strike again. 😂
There's no way we'll win this, Buendia is rubbish, etc.
-

Lovely step out that was.
-

Ha ha, fair play! I usually do the same!
-
That didn't last long.
-
shit
-
2-1 Spurs
-
Absolute fucking shambles. Disgraceful.
-
Fuck off you ******
-
Poor
-
Absolutely no one tracking him back. FFS
-
Ffs well we won’t come back this time.
-
Oh.
-
Aaaaaaaggggghhhhh
-
wankers
-
Three at the fucking back and we leave Son free like that. Fucking woeful.
-
Pathetic defending
-
Too much space for Son.
-
Son, just too good.
-
Bollocks. Son has had freedom of tbe park today.
-
Thats why hause doesnt start games.
Absolute amateur defending
-
Tactics Tim would have been embarrassed by that.
-
Son always does this to us.
-
Still time for an equaliser.
-
We ain't scoring again
-
You have to say, that was great from Son
-
You have to say, that was great from Son
It was, but we made it so, so easy for him.
-
I'd take a charity shield score now
-
Might as well throw archer and Bertie on
-
Fucking Spurs.
-
A draw would be a good result.
-
Might as well throw archer and Bertie on
Agreed.
-
Smiths got it all wrong today. Tactics been shite
-
I'd take a charity shield score now
Archbishop Desmond.
-
By FAR the most annoying song of any fan base is the slow "marching in" rendition from this bunch of absolute ******.
-
Take Hause off and bring Traore on.
-
Here comes the time wasting.
-
By FAR the most annoying song of any fan base is the slow "marching in" rendition from this bunch of absolute ******.
100% agree
-
Ings should gone 1st timer
-
Smith has had a stinker today. Spurs are bang average.
-
I really thought we'd do these fuckers today
-
We were playing a flat 4 Son doesn't get the joy. He's exploited high full backs and getting down the sides of the 3 centre halves. Smith changes to a 4 at half time they don't have half the joy.
-
This isn’t great.
-
By FAR the most annoying song of any fan base is the slow "marching in" rendition from this bunch of absolute ******.
Agreed, absolute drivel.
-
This is why smith gets so many people on his back. Too slow to make changes and stubbornly continues three at back
-
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.
-
That’s the right change but a bit late.
-
I don't understand why we don't make changes at halftime.
-
Son has been utterly fucking brilliant though. Good a display by an opposition player I can think of for a while.
-
Son is head and shoulders better than anybody we have, sadly.
-
their second given to Matt targett OG
-
Son is brilliant. Sadly we’ve been poor.
-
We don’t deserve anything today, to be brutally honest.
-
Son is head and shoulders better than anybody we have, sadly.
When you look at the output of Joe, why on earth Man City didn't throw the money at Spurs for Son. He's awesome.
-
We don’t deserve anything today, to be brutally honest.
Agreed.
-
From heroes to Villans
-
Ahhh we've been shit.
-
Heroes to zeroes
We have been really bad today
-
Archer coming on.
-
We’ve not really woken up for the entire game. Sadly, we needed to be on our top game… but disappointing. Don’t deserve anything out of this game.
-

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.
-
Should have been 3.
-
This will be a desperately poor result
-
Special mention to Luiz today.He's stank.
-
Mings unbelievable defending
-
Traore has touched, and lost the ball about 5 times.
-
Smith Out. Xisco in.
-
Too late with the subs as usual with Smith.
-
Scoreline flatters us today.
-
Forget the free kick coach, we need a football coach.
-
They just done us with a long ball from the keeper FFS.
-
Probably the worst performance of the season.
-
WTAF was that Cash?!
-
WTF as that from Buendia? He had acres of space and just twatted it into touch.
-

Passive when you need to be pro-active, I can not see him changing.
-
Smiths chnages have made us even worse
This geezer isnt getting us Europe
-
Ings off, Archer on.
-
Well we just haven’t turned up today
-
How long left?
-
Very disappointed after last week
-
Just ticked on to 90 mins on my feed, 5 minutes extra time.
-
Ings off, Archer on.
Left it a bit late.
-
What is the point of putting Cam on in the final minute?
-
Why a hanging bal ffs
-
Our balls into the box have been fucking dire too. That one there mcginn has all week and lifts it out of play. Woeful.
-
Fuck off without that lobbed ball in McGinn. Awful.
-
Probably the worst performance of the season.
Right up there with the Watford game. Pathetic performance.
-
Ings off, Archer on.
Left it a bit late.
They’ll be putting that on Smith’s headstone.
-
Another shit effort ball…this time from SJM.
-
That is the problem from one week to the next their is no real consistency of our play
-
Dean Smith has pretty much got everything wrong today. Really poor after the last few displays against an ordinary Spurs team
-
Fucking Son
-
Spurs have been done by sides playing 4 at the back in their last 3 games.
-
Son 2 - Villa 1.
-
Ings off, Archer on.
Left it a bit late.
They’ll be putting that on Smith’s headstone.
Desperate Dean.
-
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.
-
Fucking hell, this is truly pathetic.
-
We deserved nothing from todays performance.
-
Smith should have hooked Hause at HT and added Marv to midfield. That's been our downfall today..... Getting overrun in the middle by THAT midfield?!
-
That is the problem from one week to the next their is no real consistency of our play
Always been the same. Will never be any different
-
5 mins added on and we can’t get it out of our own half. Dismal stuff.
-
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.
-
How is that fucking foul? HOW?
-
Smith should have hooked Hause at HT and added Marv to midfield. That's been our downfall today..... Getting overrun in the middle by THAT midfield?!
spot on
-
Smith fucked us today
Complete amateur
-
Full time. That was fucking shite.
-
Wank.
-
poor game by two poor sides.
Spurs won't get anywhere near the Champions League.
-
Won by Son. We were dire, wrong tactics awful performances and too late to make changes.
-
FFS!
-
Absolutely terrible against a poor Spurs side. Didn't look interested today at all
-
Very poor performance. Flattered by the scoreline too
-
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.
-
The ref was as shit as we were.
-
The ref was as shit as we were.
In fairness to him he played an excellent advantage for our goal
-
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.
