theboyangel Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Poch back in the hot seat way before the transfer window ends. Conte has set his stall out (with an expiring contract) asking for greater investment but we all know no Levy reneges on agreement after agreement with spurzzz employees. my money is on a mutual termination by the end of the week and Poch calling the shots again after the FA Cup match.

Chindie Posted January 1, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 1, 2023 It took 20 mins for Kane to get a touch today. That's diabolical. Before today the longest time for him to get a touch was 7 minutes. How can you have a team that is essentially built around a big clinical striker take nearly a quarter of the match to get the ball to him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the fact our second goal came from Kane being dispossessed of the ball deep in his own half - that’s how desperate he was to get the ball. I think they really missed both Bentacaur and Kuvlevski (sp) today but still had more than enough on the pitch to win the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont understand why Poch would go back or want to go back after how he was treated the last time. They also lost 13 league games in his last season there so the magic was fading already It has match made in hell written all over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robby b Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I think it's amazing and a bit mad that a top six team with lots of good players (including the Son/Kane forward partnership that was the best/most prolific in the PL not long ago) have suddenly now conceded the first goal in their last seven PL matches. And in their last ten in all competitions. Wow. Why have they started games so slowly this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted January 2, 2023 Moderator Share Posted January 2, 2023 There's so much pressure on the sides that are used to collecting Champions league money and have suddenly realised that it's going to become very difficult. Spurs are cracking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Kane and Son looked traumatised by Thier WC experience, surely it cannot be blame of match fitness you would think they are the one should be kept in a decent enough shape. I know we all have different opinions on players, but my word if Ollie and Bailey performed like this they get slaughtered for on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It now looks a masterstroke keeping Martinez out of the side for a bit longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kulusevski, Bentancur and Richarlison all huge misses for them to be fair. Would’ve been a very different game with them playing. That said, they looked completely flat. The fans were completely flat. Conte was completely flat. They’re going nowhere fast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) @OutByEaster?asked a question in the pre match thread yesterday regarding the Spurs midfield 2 vs our own. Watching the game I’d go further, take Kane and Son out of that Spurs team and they are absolutely bang average. Which I think is their problem, when those two aren’t on it they offer nothing. I know they were missing a few key players yesterday, but watching the game I thought (aside from Son/Kane) there was probably 2 players at the most that would get into our 11. They have serious issues. Can’t see Conte sticking around for too much longer. Edited January 2, 2023 by av1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Reading the reports I couldn't help noticing a begrudging note from the pundits. For the Buendia goal, they didn't say Luiz hit the ball so hard the goalkeeper couldn't hold it, they called it a mistake. The post-match reports were all about Spurs' failure than Villa's almost perfect execution of a gameplan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the general jist of your post, but come on, it was a fairly tame effort from 30-35 yards. It was a goalkeeping clanger.

VillaChris Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 13 hours ago, Zatman said: Kulusevski is on loan still and Romero he had no say in as was agreed before he signed. Spence he didnt want at all and probably not Bissouma either as he doesnt fit the Conte style They lack a decent ball playing midfielder so badly. Amazed they seemingly passed up on Eriksen and just let him go to Man. United. On a free and eventually played well for Conte at Inter Milan. Back to where they were two years ago and this time Kane will leave in the summer so given Son is seemingly declining they're going to be very average at the back and upfront soon.

I do think the big signings like romaro richarlison are conte signings Perisic was certainly his signing. Bit like Coutinho how motivated will he be next season if Conte isn't there anymore?

Fulham and Palace away are very tricky fixtures for them in their present state so I'd like to think by Jan 31st we'll only be 2-3 points off them.
