Ndombele looks a different player now compared to his early days. He notched that second goal like he was springing out of bed. Nothing to it. Ndombele was doing the same things when he joined us as he's doing now, except now he's doing them for 65 mins as opposed to 15/20... It just took him a while to get used to the physicality and get his fitness up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3 minus 2 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Got what we deserved tonight... Poor defending for the goals especially by aurier.. he is just a frigging AIR HEAD and think Jose for once got it wrong. Imo Poor choises of formation and Ineffective/wrong subs kane going of didn't help. But lamella to replace him ... W T F!! Didn't take a rocket scientist to work out what was happen NOTHING.. would have luved to see bale replaced him... But as long as bale plays down the right..u can see... He just doesn't trust himself to go by anyone... anyways ...that's the prem.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadilo Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Nice assist by Dire for the first goal. What’s the point of having Vinicius on the bench if he don’t replace Kane? Isn’t that what he was signed for? The Bale experiment has failed miserably. If he was half the player he was he would walk in that side let alone play second fiddle to Lamela on the bench. Nice to see Jose back to his usual self ranting at players from the touch line. His tactical brilliance ensured your best player Son became ineffective second half and their weakness in defence became their strength. You played Liverpool at a bad time. They were always gonna come good again at some point but nice of Jose to help them along. Edited January 29, 2021 by Kadilo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickG16 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Does anyone actually know what is wrong with Bale? Does he not have an injury? How hard is it for a top level athlete to get fit.... Cavani came in firing on all cylinders and he's 34. You never know with Mourinho, he might just be putting him on the 'naughty step' for some reason, as he did with Shaw and Martial etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a left footed winger/inside forward/ that can play in the center, Jose INSISTS on playing him on the right, he loses effectiveness.. he joined spurs as a left bac, Hari pushed him forward and he became a world record transfer from playing him on the left...ok at Madrid Ronnie liked the left.. but they juxtaposed.. and it worked.. but he played himself out of Madrid by Zidane insisting on playing him down the right and looks like Jose is gonna do the same this time at tottenham ... Shame .. u can see theres still an extra gear there, a run of games down the lhs .. and I think he'd produce.. but atm it doesn't look like it's gonna happen...

According to Jose, it is Bale's preference to play wide right; Dunno why he is so ineffective.The likes of Salah show how useful a left footer playing that role can be.

Now Kane is out they shouldn't be bothering with the Brazilian kid. If Bale is half the player he was at Madrid he can easily play CF. He has all the attributes. Be surprised if Jose doesn't put him in... It might turn out to be a masterstroke.

wilai Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Anyone notice how Kane got injured? He was pulling his trademark move of checking where the opponent was, then backing into him. Henderson saw it coming and was too cute, moving out of the way at the last second.....Kane then landed badly on his ankle..... Karma?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing wrong with shielding the ball like that as a CF.... Anyway, there were saying that he usually has his ankle strapped before games, so it was an ongoing issue I think.

Kyle Walker has started doing 'The Kane' move to put off whoever is challenging. Walker feints to jump or moves in to the player. Grrr! Got his comeuppance doing The Kane vs Villa, getting injured by Grealish. Needs to stop it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the Spurs Brighton game. Kane's MO is to check the defender's position...back into him and then make a 'back' himself causing the jumping defender to go over the top and Kane wins a foul. As a number of pundits have commented, it is dangerous and could cause serious injury to the defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamella is just a touch stupid... No one in the spurs team deserves any form of praise..as I said poor all around.
