I liked Ange, but he's become a right whinger - ironic they call us whinging poms tbh!

 

Its cos he's got principles damnit and they should be rewarded!

 

I am not and never will be on the end of the spectrum that managers shouldnt try and play a certain way, but there is a rise of this ridiculous obstinacy. Vincent Kompany furthered his career by playing a certain way at burnley completely fucking over that club and their fans (and it annoys me still that a) he isnt called out on it much and b) it fucking worked and he's at bayern somehow). Russell Martin does brilliantly to get southampton promoted but insists on playing out from the back probably fully aware its not working but clearly thinking rightly he was bound to get sacked and will do his brand no harm. I have sympathy, hes out a job cos he did his job too well last season, but its not fair on their fans. Amorim probably ought to temporarily rejig as he hasnt got wingbacks but he won't and big ange will not teach hs players to defend cos apparently defending is winning the wrong way. I suddenly end up feeling like i'm big sam all of a sudden...

Had one big chance but lots of backs to the wall defending without giving away any big chances. Shithousery from us in time wasting.

 

Gordon took one a massive whack on the nose but I actually don't think it was a penalty. 

I dont think it was a pen but they are normally given. As much as the free kick they got on the edge of the box.

Winning from behind on the road not for the first time this season. Such a good team. 

 

Wouldn't have begrudged Spurs the point had they found an equaliser, but they didn't. No idea why they'd feel 'hard done by'. Create better chances, lads.

We were far from our best in the second half but they created three half chances. We ceded a lot of possession but generally defended really well against one of the better attacking teams in the league.

 

We should’ve put it to bed in the first half mine. 2-1 at HT flattered them massively.

Kulusevski comes over to help porro defend Gordon but in doing so obstructs the said player. It's a penalty no doubt about it.
