Maddison needs to show up. Granted he's hasn't really gotten over his injury, but he's done fuck all since the November Chelsea match. 

Teams have figured out how to play against Postecoglu's system.

    This Dele Alli interview dropped this morning. This is woah. What's happened in recent years? Addiction. But it's rooted in a lot of stuff. I recommend watching.

Spurs have been unlucky as well in this game. 2 free headers by Romero that didn’t go in. VDV’s disallowed goal by a super tight offsides.

Additionally Son needs to do more. He passes a hair too much for my liking. Needs more shots.

Which then gets back to Postecoglu needing to adjust.

I'll give him that it's a transition year with a small squad, but he definitely needs a plan B.

Well damn.  At least they didn't give up

Quick whistle for stoppage time Michael. 

Only 6 minutes of extra time was... something.

Both sides can argue they were unlucky.  Saka's goal came immediately after Kulusevski should have got a penalty.

This and bringing up the 2 Romero misses and VDV’s razor thin offsides (not that he was/wasnt, but that a split second earlier/later he might be onside).

Had their chances, but with that big early hole …

I gotta wonder if VAR waived that one off because Arsenal scored. It’s been a question for a long time what would VAR do if their call would make that huge of an impact (give a penalty and remove an opposing goal). Maybe we now know. 

Well I am just going to need to drink my sorrows away at my new home bar. Placed this in the mountain house just after the game.

Welp. Finally secured tickets for Burnley.  Which was not easy. Sitting in the south stand this time.

I logged in within 20 mins of the One Hotspur+ ticket window.  All gone.  Finally on Sunday/Monday the ticket exchange opened and finally found two together in the south stand.  But you can only buy one per member during the exchnage window.  Since its a sellout the window does not open to the public.  So my buddy and to buy a Spurs membership and I was able to buy a second.   Should be a great time at WHL 2.0

And now Werner is out the rest of the year. Hamstring injury that KO’d him from the Arsenal game. Wonderful.

Chelsea has something like 14 players unavailable for the game tomorrow. So there is that.

Big whoop they are probably going to get Spurs to commit 30 fouls, have 3 reds and probably injure a few more players for good measure. 

COYS!

Seeing Kane bag 50 goals or whatever in Germany… 

 

im so proud, but I miss that man so much 

But without his transfer fee we not having. Maddison Mickey Johnson and Vicario. 
 

Maddison been just another guy since his injury. 
 

I like Mickey a lot. Or I love his speed 

 

Johnson dope, I hope he stays for 5+ years. 
 

Vic need to beef up. He good. But gets bodied hard on them corners to often 

Europa here we come. 
 

Horrible effort to end the season. I know the schedule sucks, but our response to bad losses (Newcastle and Arsenal) has been pathetic. 
 

Not going to get better with Liverpool Sunday. 

Ange's response to the set piece question was puzzling as well. Might want to address that in the off season. 

This team has a lot of offseason work to do

 

Not just the team, but the coaching staff too

 

Anyone having dejavu. Jose. Conte? Strong start. Terrible lackluster slow regression?

Midfield needs to be addressed, Striker is a problem, back line, coaching staff, pretty much an overhaul.

Some tough questions need to be asked of Ange as well.

Not yet. Major differences here were the injuries & international absences. The heart of the season was a disaster when we were dealt a major blow coming out of the first Chelsea match in November. That match defined our season.

I don't think the team completely loathes Ange and has given up. That was the case with Jose and Antonio. We need another season to turnover the squad and add depth that actually fits the system.

Injuries and AFCON derailed the season. Part of that is the lack of depth. Teams also adjusted to Ange's system. He needs a plan B when plan A isn't working.

I don't think Europa League is the worst thing if they use it to get some young guys some experience. Guys like Devine, Bergvall, Moore, and Phillips could use playing time to develop.

I have questions about Ange-ball and his unwillingness or inability to adjust... But I do appreciate having a manager who yells "STOP PASSING BACKWARDS" when he's furious.

That Chelsea match in November is when the injuries started.  Mickey and Maddison both went out for 2+ months, Bissouma and Romero both get suspended as a result of their actions in that match. Asia Cup and Africa Cup didn't help, but it started well before the international breaks for Son, Bissouma, Sarr, and others. 

Agree that Ange needs a Plan B.  That was evident all season long. 

 

Desperately need a refresh to build depth.  Davies, Royal, Lo Celso, Hojbjerg all need to go.  We need Ndombele off the books and we need to be aggressive in the market.
