Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Newcastle United (04/01/25)

Smash! Good 3 points away from home, bizarre bringing Willock on as a striker though

[dave s]

huge win that. hard game, but came out on top 

[Bimpy474]

That was vintage us that like, decent goals, some brilliant last ditch defending, and proper shithousery in the second half, loved every second that.

Ref has to be married to a Mackem or something.

I hate how this team makes us suffer through matches like this man 

 

Was all about the result though. Did well to grind out the win. Spurs were good second half. Really tough for them.

 

Thought Willock did great coming in upfront and pressing as Isak had completely stopped doing so.

 

That pass Longstaff gave away that led to that break for them man. Thought they were going to score from that.

 

Absolutely massive result to get all 3 points today. Can just kick back now and enjoy the weekend.

 

Get in!

[TBG]

How's that bairn got enough points?

[Lush Vlad]

Pretty poor performance bar half an hour in the first half. But it keeps the run going and if someone suggested back to back wins at Old Trafford and Spurs, only 3-4 weeks ago you would have thought it unlikely.

Unlucky MADDERS you overrated little creep. Stick to the darts

[Kilcline]

Thank you very fucking much 

[Mazzy]

Sandro really took control of seeing out that last 10 minutes. Tino MOTM though. Shaky start but defensively exceptional today.

[Decky]

Only had the radio on in work. Where the fuck did he find 13 minutes? Was losing the plot there.

Harsh on @Shays Given Tim Flowers that

[El Prontonise]

Spurs played a lot better than I was expecting that 2nd half.

[Nucasol]

McMoist giving the MoTM to the Spurs keeper the absolute wet wipe. Tino all day.

[Newcastle Fan]

Scrappy win but can't complain at all, 6 wins out of 6 is fantastic and we are not always going to batter them.

Howe needs to develop more trust in the players on his bench.

 

Think he was totally vindicated again tbh. Porro's crosses were a threat but ultimately we didn't look like conceding in the last throes of the game. Managed it well. 

[andycap]

Well done lads, shockingly bad officiating var might aswell be not used they won't pull the ref up on poor decisions. 

[Skeletor]

Another double over Spurs as well. Lovely stuff.

I thought we were immense. Not our best, but stood strong. Nervy, horrible watch but deserved win 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[Adam]

Remember lads when the big clubs do it, game management when we do it, worst thing in the world

 

[Holloway]

Think Eddie nearly fucked that one up mind

We made hard work of it and looked knackered, but definitely deserved on the chances we had. Felt like an off day despite the win, but they also offered nothing really,  largely thanks to our backline. Hope we can get some energy back soon.
