uptheos Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Fortunate to be up at half time....Swansea have attacked well there....let's take this by the scruff....no need for Soldado yet. Good win, I think Tim has sussed out Soldadud's best position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good win, I think Tim has sussed out Soldadud's best position. No, but i'll explain to you nonetheless. Its the least i can do. Sherwood picked a sensible side on the day with the right formation. Secondly when you play a 4-2-3-1 and you have Adebayor on fire as he has been there is no one else to play the lone striker role. he's the automatic choice and theres few better in the world when he's fired up and in form. Its as simple as that. Now troll off to another thread where your ignorance of our squad won't be so woefully exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets just leave it that we've pissed 30m up the wall, Lamela's 100% fit and about to be sold for a bag of chips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBSESSED..........as you will by now know...he injured! Please do one to another thread, we don't need your persistent trolling dear. or, learn a lot more about our squad, which striker is suited to which role. After that you'll need to move on to our midfield. That should keep you occupied till next summer methinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be here as often as I like and comment on any aspect of the Spurs team that I please. You're not in charge of this thread or its content though I'm sure that's how you think. Regarding TS I think he's made AVB and all AVB's fans look rather silly, before yesterday's game 7% conversion rate under AVB but 24% under TS. Now he's playing Soldadud in his best position it's getting even better isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfieconn Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Definitly one of our better performances and looked much stronger playing 5 in midfield, once we get back our 5 best players we should have a good chance of being in the top 6 ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancnx Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I was particularly pleased to see Danny Rose having a much better game; he's made a few howlers recently. The more he plays the sharper he will become - he will be a major asset if he can recapture his early season form, and at times needs to remember he is the LB and not a winger. Would be good to see Daws and Dembele getting a (verbal) grip of him on the odd occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's big, strong has a lot of skill to scare any defence. Erikson showed some silky smooth skills and he's got quite a burst of speed which surprised me.

iancnx Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I see Lewis Holtby has posted on his Facebook a Big Big Thank You to the away Spurs fans who gave him a good reception/recognition/chant at Swansea yesterday. Assumptions are being made that this could be a goodbye message. He's done well for us, but he will struggle to get a start for us anytime soon given our current midfield strength with other players on the cusp of return to fitness, bar a rotation place me thinks. Good luck to him if he gets what he wants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be good to see Daws and Dembele getting a (verbal) grip of him on the odd occasion. Good point about the defensive side of his game. Same with Walker. Both great going forward but tend to get caught out of position defensively. Both young and will learn. Clever management bring on Naugthon and pushing Walker up. Kept the attacking theme whilst adding to our defense at the same time. Vertonghen and Paulinho back for the City game. Defensively we'll have to be a lot tighter. I expect him to go for the same set up against them on the 29th and its going to be a huge test for us, not least of all young Bentaleb if he plays alongside Dembele. Good performance good tactics and a very nice three points. Good job by Sherwood i'm delighted to say 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats an idea thats been raised on here before. Its a lovely option isn't it because whilst you are tightening the midfield you keep the attacking threat. Walkers crossing is improving but still patchy. Mindyou, the same can be said of Lennon's for that matter. Desperately need Vertonghen back for the City game. Is Walker the fastest in the league? Can't be far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmine Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Lloris Walker Vertonghen Kaboul Rose Lennon Paulinho Dembele Townsend Eriksen Adebayor Good side but i think we would need a holding mid and i would ditch Townsend, switch maybe Eriksen over and bring in Capoue for a 4231.

I'm not trying to be big headed here but I would hate to be a team currently trying to figure out how to stop our front men. At the moment they all tend to be given a free role and swap over from the middle to either of the wings, at will. Man marking and a rigid back four won't work, so IMO players who may not be your best choice in certain positions but who are more flexible in changing positions, may be the best way to go.
