Danilo is doing good things defensively and providing a consistent outlet for defenders under pressure, but he's so careless with his passing.
In the last 5 minutes the passing has veered towards atrocious.
Couple of big let offs. We've randomly got a bit ragged. Just get to half time lads.
And about time Romero was carded.We’re very stand off-ish on both flanks too. They’re managing to get their crosses in almost every time.
Need to get back on the ball second half. Can’t just sit back and absorb - they’ll take a chance eventually.
We've been the most 'freestyle' I remember us being. Getting drawn to the ball in numbers, big overloads at the back post....loads of space out wide. But we match up very well against these, and they are not massively equipped to do simple traditional football patterns of play, and they are rubbish at getting on things in the box. Which might be why we are doing it this way.
I can understand not committing players forward on the counter at 2 up, but that did mean the ball started coming back rather quickly and we were just starting to creak.
How's Toff doing?
Surviving.
Solid. Playing left back by being a left back. No unnecessary half way line nose bleeding.
Ok. Odobert is probably their most effective player and he is being helped by Porro amd Kulusevski so he has his work cut out His out ball is poor.
Just as I was looking forward to Elanga running at their sub centre backs...
Fire alarm at Stockley Park, so no VAR for the moment.
This is great news! The first time VAR has been on fire in it's existence so far!
Get ready for a Spurs offside goal missed by the on-field officials.
Big Ange has taken the wrong centre-things off.
