Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [26th - 31st January 2018]

Get Jones off for Rojo and get Sanchez off for Herrera, we need an extra man in midfield. Martial being wasted on the right with Sanche on the left, and this is not the game to be shoe-horning Sanchez into the team.

Is that only when he’s with Bailly? Or is Rojo better than Smalling and Jones full stop? If so, why’s he not playing? And where’s Lindelof?

Smalling is better than Jones, but they are both prone to mistakes. Rojo is much more commanding and players are worried he'll smash them which helps when defending, decent on the ball too. I'd go Smalling + Rojo here.

All of them look better with Bailly who is an excellent defender and hard to fault.

Not sure where Lindelof is. :p

Ultimately we've been done by a kick off goal and Spurs have kept the pressure on, so the team has just crumbled. Not sure it can be fixed in the second half but we'll see.
 
Undone again by high pressing team. Seems Mourinho has no counter to this approach. Matic has played poorly for a number of weeks now and we need him to be on it in games like tonight. Pogba also is not doing anything. If anything our line up is too offensive. Kane vs Lukaku looks like no contest. Watch and learn Romelu
 
technically offside for the 1st goal (***** stupid defending also)

Atleast Utd are creating chances even if the final pass isn't quite there

Matic has old leggy legs...Why do you think Chelsea sold him?
 
Did I just see that?


Kick off, pass it straight back to the keeper and boot it up to the half way line...?

What is that we already had the ball on the half way line it was our kick off?

This is pretty much Utd level, they are a slightly above average team who look ok vs dross.

I just think Tottenham are a much better rehearsed team. I think they have what is their best 11 out tonight and its a team that has played a lot together. Poch has them well drilled.
