Tottenham v Aston Villa Monday 2nd November 2015 K.O 8pm

Horrible referee.

Dogshit players. Especially Richardson. Clark. Guzan. Bacuna. Hutton. Gestede. Gabby. Get rid.

KMac should be sacked immediately.

Thought Sanchez was alright tonight. He intercepted a lot of loose balls.

We can't defend though. Can't defend for shit. Truly horrible team.

*So many fundamentally rookie mistakes being made. Lescott not taking out depth to support Clark on his mistake. Sanchez could have moved down to cover Lescott, but nothing happens. Horrible by Lescott.
*Before Alli scores you can see 3-4 Villa players not marking anyone standing there with the cock in hand. This is a problem. They simply aren't organised. They don't have a fucking clue.
*Pressure in midfield is rubbish. They simply don't know how to close down midfielders. Only one that done remotely okey was Sanchez.
*I can keep going, but I can't be arsed. Half the team should be replaced in January. If we survive I'd release them all.

Trying to see it from Remi's perspective & I'd say it was obviously bad enough to highlight the weaknesses - from guilty players to the frailty of confidence. Hopefully he'll have left with a headful of ideas...

Amavi Okore/Clark Richards Hutton
Veretout Gana Bacuna
Gil
Ayew Gestede

If the header from Gestede goes in we get something out of tonight. Small margins that hopefully Garde can get us on the right side of in future

Agree we need to drop the old crowd they have had enough time of pissing us off, let's see what the new boss picks on Sunday.

Nah Dazzle. We need to play the tactic I sorted out in a picture at page 3 or whateever it was. The flaw in what you're doing there is the fact that we NEED 3 CM's or we're overrun. We need an anchor and 2 box players infront of him. It's the only way we can keep the ball and retain some possession at times. Even today you could see how easy they pissed all over our midfield after he managed to bring Ayew on for Westwood. Horrible mistake. Should have been Ayew for Bacuna and Westwood for Veretout.

My two cents anyway.

Grealish needs to learn to shoot to be more of a threat. otherwise he is no use in an under-performing team. he is like Darren Bent in front of goal. uses only the side of the foot - except Grealish has to shoot from outside the box. in a team that is doing well Grealish can help keep possession and create chances. but when you're doing badly and need a goal from a bit of something out of nothing Grealish won't give us that. at least not until he learns how to shoot.

I thought Gestede was his usual self when he came on. Utter shite. He did nothing.

You can see why that team of sherwoods failed Kmac Sherwood Wilkins parks all agreeing on the usual suspects who are well past it Lescott Richardson Gabby are finished last reserve squad players at best

Any chance of turning this season around lays with the likes of Gil, Ayew, Veretout, and Amavi. I'm sure Garde will jettison Gabby and Richardson, probably Gestede also. Midfield has to be sorted somehow. Grealish simply isn't doing anywhere near enough to warrant his place currently, offering us nothing. I'd go with 4-2-3-1 from here on.

Come January we have to hope there's a couple of gems lined up to come in because we are short of quality.

That is my preferred team too. I'd nearly have Bunn instead of Guzan but otherwise, I think that's as good as we have at present.

Maybe we can blag a cheeky little loan of Welbeck from Remi's mate Arsene. DW is due back from injury in December so we could use him from Jan - Arsene seems to be happy with Campbell understudying Giroud and Walcott.

On the plus side I thought Sinclair was pretty good. Only player that tried to get the ball up the other end of the park in the first half.

Only because no other fucker was around to help out. Hard to take on the whole Spurs defence on your own.

Fair point, he wasn't blessed with option I know. But, he did have a couple of opportunities to cross when the G man was on and still didn't, just so frustrating.

I hope that is Gabby's last game for the club. SurEly the new man can see thrIugh him.

Fuck! I meant Gestede is the G man, not that other useless fat fucker who used to play for us - Agbonla-soethingorother,,,,

Been a long time since anyone saw through Gabby - he's so dense he bends light.......

MacDonald said he was subbed because of a calf injury. Nothing to do with being completely inept at football. Which would be more accurate.

he should be grateful!

KMac said he picked a side that would give Spurs problems and it was the best side he thought he could pick. No wonder Garde wants his own back room staff!!

How do you explain us having the ball in their half more often after the break? A header going slightly wide that could have been the equaliser?
Scored 2 at Anfield.
Without him we'd only have 2 points.

Each to their own. I think he's shite.

Any mediocre striker given similar pitch time would score now and then.

Don't bother mefromhere - Joppe has serious man-hate for Gestede

Him and Ayew could form a partnership ... With Gil to supply. I trust in Remi to get us sorted and as terrible as it's been we're only 2 wins from safety! That's it. We're good enough to get that

Assuming that's true that makes Kevin MCunt look even more stupid - just when such a thing seemed impossible - because it implies he would have left him on otherwise.

This is exactly why KMac should be sacked with immediate effect, team selection was utter shit again and then to even contemplate Gabby coming back on the pitch after taking 8 touches in the first half and 2 of them were kick-offs. The pundits were having a field day at our expense again and I couldn't argue against them either!
