cruzFOX Posted 19 March 2021 Share Posted 19 March 2021 Spuds got run over like we were by the checks. Very poor showing - they looked visibly knackered! Dinamo were like Dynamo always looked like scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazzyfox Posted 19 March 2021 Share Posted 19 March 2021 I actually agree with Southgates reasoning (said through gritted teeth there) re Alexander-Arnold, he doesn't appear to be at his usual performance level this season, possibly being less confident in the security of the CB's to bomb forward as much but he's gone on form. We used to hate it when the F.A, rubberstamp came out of the draw and selected same old same old regardless of form and it may be the moment that sparks him into an upsurge in form. However Dier.......?????????? The rubberstamp still exists then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t but Kane wasn’t quite as highly rated as he should have been at Spurs .... levy might have been tempted by a decent offer (although the only way we would have done that is if he had performed really well here which would have shown Spurs he was worth keeping ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious who people now view as the biggest threat to us for top 4. I can’t be the only one looking at Liverpool more than the rest? After last season I still don’t look at a 10 point cushion with much confidence. Not with the standard of teams we are fighting with. Liverpool are more than capable of winning the remaining games. So it’s up to us to get the job done. I know the CL, EL double seems unlikely to some but I’m looking at that top 3 spot now and I hope Brendan is as well.

I'm looking at Liverpool too, but a 10 point gap with 9 to play is not be underestimated. If we play at relegation form (1 point a game) they have still got to take 19 from 9 (2+ points a game) to finish above us. Arsenal, Villa, Leeds, Newcastle, Man United in the first five of those nine is not easy, especially with Real Madrid around them. We have got to prove we've got the nerve to put crap teams away like Watford and Brighton who took points off us after the restart last season, and show steel to grind out the odd draw here and there in more difficult games. Everyone is looking at that run after Man City quite rightly, because that is where we can be home and dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the CL and EL English double is unlikely but it's even more unlikely that 4th place will become a Europa League spot as it would mean both of those sides finishing 5th or below.

It could be bad luck, it could be bad form, it could simply be outclassed but we could easily on paper lose to man city, west ham, Chelsea, Spurs and Man U. Because of that I’ve learnt to not get too carried away with the league position. Theres no chance of a dead rubber at the end of the season for us. Where as many teams will get the ‘on the beach’ fixtures in the last 4 we won’t as all of our competitors will be fighting for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal have a big shot in EL. Of the teams left they are probably the 2nd best left in the contest and clearly they don’t have to focus on the league. The champions league is the long shot, but with football until it happens, it’s possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trippier has played 3 games in 3 months, so he's not in on form. It seems his pick on form policy is only used when it suits him. As you say, Dier is still in. Mings over Konsa when the latter has been better. Chilwell hasn't been dropped either, despite losing his place at Chelsea. Look how long it took him to take a look at Grealish when he was playing well, same with Maddison. He uses the form excuse when it suits, but he has his favourites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know that but I wasn't getting at that. Wasn't getting at the result. Just the fact some posters go back to the "at least we can concentrate on top 4 now" when we go out but on the other hand also laugh at Spurs for going out.

Well no, it seems they are laughing at the manner of Spurs going out, and how it once agains sums that team up. If Spurs had just been knocked out over two close legs like we were I don't think people would be pissinh themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're being a tad disingenuous here. The posters you reference felt it was perhaps in our favour that we got knocked out under current circumstances, which is not the same as what you attribute to them. I am certain most fans would like us strong enough to compete on all 3/4 fronts, but it would be untrue to say we have the strength to do so right now. Next season, who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
