Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa Match Thread

[IFWaters]

Well we've ridden our luck. Spurs should be out of sight. The whole team need a rocket or a sniff of smelling salts. They can't be that shit again surely. If we get the next goal I think the crowd will turn on them.

Close to a miracle that we are level. Tottenham will be kicking themselves. Sublime ball in from Dougie and terrific header from Pau.

Unai needs to get into them at halftime and the system needs to change.

[Archbishop Herbert Cockthrottle]

I'm hard.

I've only come in for a prostate examination.

[PaulWinch again]

Delighted to have that shoved back down my throat. Need to kick on now.

[SamTheMouse]

Very fortunate to be level. They've had a hatful of chances.

[TonyD]

Let’s fuck these fuckers second half.

[Smirker]

I think second half we're going to be excellent.

[Skerra]

If Unai just reverts to how we normally play at home, we could still win this match at a canter

[Smithy]

We should be about 4-2 down, but we've been given a second chance.  Let's not fuck it up please.

[stevo_st]

Be nice for the ref to give us a few more of those 50 / 50s

[TonyD]

Digne needs hooking

[Beard82]

wow - we played awful and really got away with it.  We must be better second half.

Carlos - I just don't think is any good - we not more solid with him in the said which I am assuming is the idea.  It just means we have our best defender out of position and two CB who arent great at defending. 

Diaby - been a bit disappointing lately - was kind of hoping this would suit him today, but he's been rubbish unfortunately. Cash struggled too. 

[brontebilly]

Emery got that all wrong. Cash lost in midfield, Konsa lost at RCB, Carlos lost at this level.

[andyh]

Such a poor half.
Yet again we look passive, as we have done so many times this season, when away.
I love this team, we all do but there are issues there.
Cash needs to come off. Find a way of  tweaking the team and bring Ramsey on.
His pace and ability to run at them would work.
Diaby off and Bailey on (never thought I’d ever say that).

And tell kamara and dougie to start moving the ball around quicker.

[Proposition Joe]

That goal is huge. We never come back from a halftime losing position. A couple of tweaks tactically and we can really get at this Spurs defence and pin them back.
