Not sure why anyone expects any different with Amartey, he cost us goals all season being beaten to headers.

I know Kasper gets a lot of stick for our defending of corners but our defenders inability to mark/track their man and challenge for headers is fking awful. Amatey has pissed away a lot of the good work he's done in defence this season by defending like a retard from corners.

I'm only listening on the club site, but sounds like we are playing better and are unlucky to be a goal down

Well, kind of... We're doing OK up until the edge of their area again, but then the final ball and/or decision is poor. We've seen it many times before. 

[StanSP]

Kasper better not be injured badly :

[lcfcdamo]

God how bad is kasper at coming for balls 🙈

[Finnegan]

Ummm. 

 

Playing devil's advocate, should that not have been a penalty? Kasper kinda just took him out. 

[justfoxes]

How was that not a foul on Thomas And Kasper??

'm still not really sure CB  is his best position either. 

I am not sure football is his thing either.

And they were so s*** playing against Brighton and Brentford, Brighton's defender Cucurella was class didn't give the Spurs forwards a chance

[foxfanazer]

Tielemans has been shit today..

[Tanya]

I'd probably be looking to let Amartey go in the summer.  Solid player and he could play for a lower half prem side but we should aim for better squad players.

Imgaine taking kane son out of this spurs side they would be mid table max

[Flappit]

Daka always wants to run onto the ball and yet our midfield keeps trying to pass to feet and he gets caught flat footed. Ihenacho wants it to feet and we play it in front of him... Like I say, it's a circus of poor decisions.

Bit like us when you take vardy out the side 

[JimJams]

Daka is doing well so far. Won some fouls, made some tackles, putting himself about. 

[The Guvnor]

Apart from the brain fart defending of the corner we have run the show, but  if Spuds had all the opportunities we've had to score it would be game over already.

[KingsX]

For our "B" team against Spurs "A", this has not been awful.  We're giving it a go.

 

[SuperMike]

Excellent first half! Perez top man.

I don't think I will ever understand how such a good keeper can, with so much experience, be so bad in the air. It really is baffling. His judgement of situations is objectively terrible. 

[FoxFossil]

Strikers playing like strangers...which they are.

Imagine taking Vardy and Ndidi out of ours… oh wait…

[Hales]

I would love Daka to score today, it would do so much for his confidence

[coolhandfox]

Nacho showing very little again.

 

Wonder what excuses the foxestalk faithful will find for him this week now he's playing in a two. 

[Guest Col city fan]

Apart from the obvious, I think we’ve played ok and had the better chances.

Defensively we look so so shaky

Amartey again absolute garbage

I think the biggest problem with how we play now is that barely a single player is willing to take the opposition on with the ball anymore. Granted Barnes tries, but you look at the top teams in the league and they all have those 2 or 3 players that will beat a man and keep the ball moving forward quickly.

 

Our automatic reaction when we meet an opposition player is to pass the ball and that pass usually ends up being backwards which slows or ends the attack.

I can only assume that comes from BR obsession with high possession. Players are terrified of losing the ball.

Lookman takes on his player more than Barnes.
