I miss Pardew.

 

[omnomnom]

I said last week Spurs were in trouble with players leaving in the summer...Lloris needs replacing aswell. Absolute tripe.

 

[Sui]

Holy **** his arm, that was horrible.

I guess he’s saved himself further embarrassment though.

 

[BaZ87]

Lloris

 

[Kelt]

Wow, dreadful by Lloris.

Brighton carrying on from where Bayern ended.

 

[Converge]

Classic. Broken arm though by the looks of that. Ouch...
Spursy within 2.5 mins... new record?

 

[BaZ87]

Glad I didn't notice Lloris arm at the time, sounds horrific.

 

[Sui]

G’wan Brighton

 

[explicit4u]

Still reckon they've got the goals too early and Spurs could easily come back to win this, I'll enjoy it while it lasts

 

[Kelt]

Spurs look finished in this game.

 

[BaZ87]

Quite remarkable how Spurs have just fell off a cliff of late. On paper their squad is stronger now than 12 months ago - it just goes to show you just how important squad harmony is and how Levy's insistance of getting top dollar for players wanting to leave may ended up costing Spurs massively.

Doesnt help when your best defender has been nobbing eriksons wife

 

[jonneymendoza]

Jesus. The wheels have truly fallen off and I'm loving it

 

[Mark1989]

Spurs look finished

Fixed hehehe

Too many holes add to the disharmony. They can't rely on Lloris, have one decent fullback (Davies) and the rest are tripe. The central midfield bar Ndombele doesn't exist; Sissoko and Winks shouldn't be anywhere near the starting XI of a top 8 team, but one is a regular and the other a frequent.

Spurs are paying a heavy price not just for their inactivity last season, but moreso keeping potentially disruptive players at the club too. An arrogant mouthpiece like Rose should have been cut 18-24 months ago.

I can't imagine Lloris getting another game for Spurs. He's been awful for a year or so no, and that injury doesn't look like something he'll return from before January. Spurs need to sign a new keeper and move on from him

Winks is a funny one - in this country he looks really good, as he passes and moves very tidily, but his kind of player is ten a penny in Spain. He's not half as good as, say, Illaramendi.

 

[Sui]

Too easy

 

[Flaevius]

He's a poor man's Ander Herrera for me.

A tidy little shuffler that doesn't really make any tangible impact at either end of the pitch. There are a few players he could be broadly likened to in terms of what he brings - McGinn and Guendouzi being two - and in most cases it wouldn't be Winks I'd choose in my team. He's the squad 18 man a manager should turn to in emergency, but a pivot in the midfield? No.

*3-0. And it is the least Brighton deserve.
