Sibdane Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 We started with the wrong formation, but RK made the substitutions. Defensively, there was a major lack of concentration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 2 - 1 would have flattered us, we were very poor today.thougt the same. Our two goals should still fail to cover up the tactical clusterfuck. No one really played well but we set up all wrong from the get go.

markjazzbassist Posted March 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 So much wrong with today. Koeman formation, Barry is done, Davies look average against strong competition, Williams and mori still shaky, Coleman had one of his signature off days. They are a good side and deserved to win. Let's see how we respond next week. Barkley motm was everywhere and never gave up or put his head down. Got that second goal assist and he kept at it. Really showed a great attitude today.

Romey 1878 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Feel very deflated after that but I should be used to it - whenever we get confident we bottle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Players never look good when asked to play in a wrong formation. I agree that Koeman got it completely wrong today. He should have had the confidence to stick with a winning combination. Too much dunking around: He tried to be too clever. MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 We payed Spurs too much respect, if we had started with McCarthy, Mirallas or Lookman instead of Barry it may of been different. Once Spurs got their tails up it was always going to be hard to get something out of it. All the defenders made too many individual errors. Koeman will be livid. On the plus side Lukaku, and Barkley played well, and we never gave up. MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Well below par today. Defensively we shot ourselves. Most players were off the pace but I have to say that Koeman didn't do us any favours. Setting out with 5 central midfielders, 4 of which are more defensively minded, was always going to limit our chances. 2 wasted positions for me today...Barry, who's job Morgan can do much better now, and Davies further up and wide. I get that he maybe wanted to contain Spurs, but then once you see it isn't working, you'd expect him to change it much quicker than he did. Koeman needs to have more faith that he has us playing better when we focus on our strengths, and getting our balance right. Got to crack on with the rest of the season now.

Shy_Talk Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 The only thing more depressing than our efforts from set pieces is how we set up then switch off when defending against anyone elses. Against such a strong midfield, why not involve maximum legs? (why Barry?) just seen Kane's second, what a fucking joke. Ghost of clownshoes there. Still, a tougher away done with, hopefully a specific lesson finally learned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnh Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Robles should have saved the first goal and had a hand in conceding the second. The back four all had poor games but particularly Williams and Mori. The midfield, apart from Barkley were ordinary. Barry should have gone before half-time and Gueye was a shadow of his former self. Lukaku worked hard but didn't win anything in the air. Just shows how far off the pace we are in relation to the top four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have had the confidence to stick with a winning combination. Too much dunking around: He tried to be too clever. No question. Schneiderlin and Gana are machines in midfield, throwing Barry in just put a spanner in the works. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Koeman is starting to become the new tinker man, to many changes, let's hope normal service resumes against West Brom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
