Aye Perch watched it all the way for some reason. The type of freekick picks up pace and it went very low in the end. 

 

 

Still Colo's fault for allowing the whole situation.

i didn't think it was a free kick for the 1st goal. Dempsey seemed to just spin and fall and i didn't think colo touched him. 2nd goal Taylor made a right hash of challenginf Adebayour, Colo made a rubbish challenge and Perch stood and watched it all unfold. I'm also not sure that Bales shot was going in till it hit Kruls foot. Tell better when i've seen motd tonight.

Sadly I think he's past his best.  Poor foul for 1st goal and poor overall for the 2nd.

 

You can't blame him too much for the goals. The first one is on Perch, and the second was a mix up. It happens.

He made stupid errors for both goals, it's as simple as that. Physically he's not what he was and we're suffering.

Fair point, but things like this happen all the time on the pitch. You can blame Taylor just as much as Colo for the 2nd.

Correct but colo has got too much leeway for many mistakes this season IMO.

Coloccini didn't cost us 2 goals today, I find it laughable that some are blaming him for the both even though I would agree that he had a part in both.  He didn't give away the first goal, he gave away a free kick and defenders do that regularly, or they will if they tackle because they'll never get them 100% right every time.  Perch should have blocked the first with his head and he not doing so cost us the first.  People using the 2 others in the wall not jumping as a defence for Perch, it isn’t because Perch was the only player in the wall who could and should have blocked the shot.

 

The 2nd was down to Coloccini and Taylor, Taylor screwed up slightly and Coloccini repeated that with his failed attempt at a tackle.  I wouldn't be surprised if the broken nose suffered by Ba played some part in his failed tackle because if he was going to get the ball today he was going to have to raise his foot again, although not in the same way as he had to last weekend.

I thought he had a poor game but not that poor a game, no reason to believe it's not just a mild fluctuation in his form and he'll be good again next game. People tagging it into some big decline are over-egging it, think he is found wanting for pace mind. I do find it hard to justify taylor being dropped either is the problem.

Coloccini has never had pace, at least not while he's been here.  It shouldn't be forgotten that he's a very good player with the ball and could easily have had an assist today with a brilliant ball into the Spurs box.

Well of course, but paired with another slow defender against a fast team was asking for trouble, and again think the 'poor' performance is overblown, Spurs wasted some better worked positions too, it was their first goal that I find really annoying, and that was a routing free kick into a wall had Perch actually jumped.

The winning goal was absolutely shambolic defending and if it was Williamson or some other hated NUFC defender he'd be getting dogs abuse for it. It was absolutely pathetic and I'm really annoyed about it.

 

Otherwise today he was alright, I thought, but that goal, man. I'll be having nightmares about it tonight.

The freekick was cheap to giveaway. I could understand it in the Bale situation where he just needed to act but it was poor defending to get into that position for the FK. So early as well. Perch also accountable. But that's Colo/Perch for the first. Equally as to blame.

 

Colo more to blame for the second too. That's two situations that if he defended well we wouldn't have conceded goals.

Taylors pathetic attempt at a challenge on adebayour put colo ubder pressure as bale had the run on him. Perch just stood and gawped.
