Spurs (home) 7:45pm League Cup 31/10/2018 Trick or Treat?

OldCastleSwift

If you scroll back through the BBC coverage all you see is chances for West Ham. Spurs have been mentioned three times; their two goals and Llorente's disallowed effort.

Goalie playing a blinder. Again.

How did we not score there

thornburyiron

Adam creating chances is one thing but apart from Arnie we have nobody who has any idea what to do in front of goal. That's what I meant by powder puff. Goals win games not missed chances.

MrsGrey

So powder puff = not being clinical.

MrsGrey

You don't score goals unless you create the chances first.

1-2 game on

1-3 game over

MrsGrey

DJ, my stream is a few seconds behind, so you are getting in ahead of the game.

OldCastleSwift

This team though ;lol

thornburyiron

Mrs G that's exactly what I meant. Being clinical is a must. Pelle says it after every game but rarely do we seem to be learning. Do they have goals at Rush Green?

Got you ;ok

I took it to mean we pass it around (pretty) but don’t really do anything with the ball.

thornburyiron

Spurs get another chance and score. Being clinical.

Lukerz

Tbf spurs just have the stronger side out.

Eriksen, Alli, Son, Winks, Wanyama, Aurier, Sanchez all first 11 players.

DJ Hammer

Spuds are toying with us now. I hope this doesn’t dent our confidence too much ahead of the Burnley game

Will be interesting to see the stats at the end of the game. I bet we'll comfortably have more shots than them, but it's only the ones that go in that count for anything.

Don't necessarily disagree with that.

But what's our excuse against Wolves, or Bournemouth, or Brighton?

DJ Hammer

I detest the spuds supporters slow version of “when the saints”. It sounds like a funeral March!

thornburyiron

OCS I think at the moment they've had 6, all on target and we've had 8, 5 on target.

To be fair, he hasn't got much of a squad to pick from.

But yeah, it hurts to see us tumble tamely out of a cup competition again.
