My son has 'lent' me his Amazon Prime sign in, he is actually going to the match.

Watching via Sky Q box, picture and sound keeps stuttering!!

Mine was too turn the sky q box off and just watch through the smart tv app if u have it. Picture is perfect. Sky q just slows down for some reason.

Have you been a buffoon all your adult life or is it a recent phenomenon?

13 players plus a keeper? Find it very hard to believe they can't fulfill that. 

Quick look on Wikipedia and they have a 27 man first team squad and then 12 players in the reserves over 20 years old.

I agree with you but Howe is already starting to make noises to that effect

Free hit so a smart move to rest a few. Just hope we don't get absolutely thrashed. 

Expand  

Yep.

Rotate and try to keep the big players fresh. It's a squad game these days.

Looking forward to seeing Perraud and SArmstrong today, and KWP back on the right.

[Saint_clark]

Haven't been to a game in quite a while, whats with the new announcer style at the stadium? He's calling out the players names like a fucking bingo caller.

...although, what constitutes a thrashing in your world, a 3 goal swing?

Nah I'm thinking 6+

[Trader]

Well, the next couple of hours will reveal whether Ralph is a tactical genius of not.

BTW, my money is on not.

[CamSaint]

 You never know, we may need to play the Covid card as Adams was part of the squad only 48 hours ago.......

[DT]

At least they’re singing our song

[OttawaSaint]

Beard boys up top! 

Coys!

[Saint_clark]

Good first touch for Valery there 🤦🏼‍♂️

[AlexLaw76]

Go  on then, predictions?

1-4

LOLz

[bangkoksaint]

Sell out? 😂😂

[Saint_clark]

Forster short pass counter - 1

[OttawaSaint]

Emerson Royale, is that because of the metric system?

[AlexLaw76]

so, 442/4222 with KwP on the right?

or a 433?

Definitely 3 at the back, with KWP getting massively high up when we have the ball.

[OttawaSaint]

Can't wait to see Long's shit eating grin after spooning one over the open net from 3 yards out.

[DT]

No way was that offside

[nta786]

Shane Long in 2015/16 I reckon would score that... close but a half chance.

yeah, 343 kind of thing

[Saint_clark]

Really poor from KWP, JWP was in acres of space on the edge of the box.

[OttawaSaint]

Great play KWP, bad header AA. Chance missed. 

[BotleySaint]

Lovely to see KWP on his best side again.

Yep, so much more of a threat.

He had two good options. A better striker would have scored the AA mis-hit

[Saint_clark]

Forster pass counter

Short pass - 2 

"Random hoof" - 2

[DT]

Started pretty well to be fair. Need to capitalise. Spurs goal out of nothing would kill this momentum. They don’t look all that. 

[Saint_clark]

Really enjoying this new aggressive style we have.

[adrian lord]

Salisu trying to put Liverpool off from coming in for him. 

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck off Regilon, asking for a card. Cunt!

[Saint_clark]

Fucking hell Reguilon went down so easily there 😂

[obelisk]

KWP takes an early yellow. Misses next game.

[Saint_clark]

Playing with fire with these high lines from freekicks with VAR in place nowadays.

[DT]

Stupid yellow. Fraser should have been much quicker out to intervene

[moonraker]

Unnecessary foul by KWP

 

[OttawaSaint]

Why are Spurs dressed like an aging aunt? Just missing a string of pearls.

[Saint_clark]

Brilliant forward play from Long there to chest down that long ball. Wasted by Stuart Armstrong though.

[OttawaSaint]

Spurs fucked up by AA missed his pass to Long in the box. 

[Saints foreva]

Wrong pass from Diallo and then an awful pass from Adam Armstrong. 

[Saint_clark]

Stuart Armstrong looking very rusty. On the whole we look very good.

[HKsaint]

Adam Armstrong has no confidence and dare to shoot

[Saint_clark]

Mention of the 9-0 there from the commentators, 17 minutes in.

[obelisk]

One day a long throw will come off.

[AlexLaw76]

here we go, long throw from Salisu....

Hilarious

[OttawaSaint]

Ref's a cunt. Spurs diving and conning him, waving away Spurs fouls.
