It’s fucking pathetic every week that we barely get a shot on goal let alone on target. What the hell is this tactic? It doesn’t work. Fucking boring. We didn’t used to be this way.

Giroud looks vaguely like a bearded Macron.

Which in turn sounds like an exotic species of snail.
He looks like Rylan’s dad.

Played okay but you’re not telling me Abraham wouldn’t be better than Watkins.

Spurs set a precedent hauling a player off after 16 mins, we should have done the same with Watkins. He is completely shot.

Ah I really don't like it when the ref blows up just before a set piece. They should let it play out

Id have taken 0-0 at half time

But its a tough watch. We offer zero goal threat

Yep. There are few stranger looks than the dyed beard. Those people aren't to be trusted.

Emery needs to hook at least 2 players at HT.
But he won’t until Lille score their second.

Tech question.  When TNT swaps to HBO will it automatically change on my tv?

Not that bad. But our our worst enemy at times.
So far Watkins, Buendia and Sancho wasteful. Onana, Doug and Rogers doing well.

It's just for streaming, will still be TNT on Sky. If you watching via an Ipad for example, it will move to HBO.

Would the real Morgan Rogers please report to reception?

Bit better last 60seconds, half a chance there at end. His first touch is all over the place of late.

Just like at Wolves, solid first half but our front four are giving us worse than nothing. Would get Tammy and McGinn on anyway. Swap Sancho to left and see.

Bogarde doing fine at right back. Onana woke up last 15 mins. Luiz probably our best again.

It wasn’t that long ago that we were good at not giving the ball away cheaply.
I also wish we had another attacking option as well as give the ball to Rogers.
Watkins ffs.
