Match Reaction v Spurs

[Marc Overmars]

We have been fighting and showing great spirit all season. It's got us nowhere of course, but that's what we've been doing. Apparently.

[LDG]

Empty words and tiresome.

His Morpheus/Obi Wan approach to coaching is really pissing me off. There is more to football than spirit, determination, character, mental strength and the rest of the New Age nonsense he repeats game after game. He needs to get a strategy together and apply it to this team. We need organising. No more bollocks about not focusing on our opponents and allowing our players to express themselves on the pitch. We need this team drilled and organised. They need to know how to function as a unit on the pitch. I have no doubt that these guys want to win and are tired of being humiliated but they’re not going to get better without proper guidance and coaching.

Yup.

Back to basics for the last ten games. We have enough quality in the ranks to get a good haul of points. But lets be hard to beat first.

Meh, who am I kidding. We all know what's coming anyway

[Niall_Quinn]

It is very difficult to know how we lose this match. We dominated but lack little bit perhaps composure in the final third. Of course with defending, I did not see it, I will have to look again.

Back to basics.

I'm sure that's been the tagline at this point for the past 4 years when we've bombed out of everything.

There's not much to say anymore, Wenger has fully morphed into Wenget and there's no way back.

Not sure I'd call pass, pass, pass dominate.

He wasn't brilliant - he was ordinary. So was Dawson. That's how ordinary defenders play in an organised system. You could have taken Merts and TV and after a year training with a team that organises the defending they'd be ordinary too. You could take the two spuds and stick them in our team and after a year they'd be a laughing stock. We don't defend. We are bigger than that.

Sorry I don't agree, he came forward with real purpose and also made last ditch tackle a number of time, they even singled him out during the match. He's a quality player and the kind of player we should have been after, it's not just the system that's flawed it's the quality of players we have as well.

we were after him - unfortunately wenger wanted him as a DM rather than a CB and he wasn't interested.

luckily we had diaby to step in.

[Özim]

This guy might be the answer to our troubles, he was once before and now we're looking for defenders might be worth a punt:

Jeffers.

The first sign Wenget lived within.

[Özim]

Whatever happened to the search for a "fox in the box" anyway, it's not been mentioned for many years.
