An upmarket version of our Carlisle tactics worked a treat for Spurs yesterday in the first half but they couldn’t sustain it either.
Only way to get a breather in football is to keep the football for longer periods which has the added advantage of working and tiring the opposition.
If only we could do it.
If we had a Baraclough in CM and a Torpey like big n’ nasty targetman we could get away with it. Jarvis did really well and would continue to do well in a 2 upfront. What we need though to play like this is a big nasty battering ram who can hold the ball up.
O’Neil, jesus christ…he looks like another in the Turan bracket. I’d send him out on loan In January and get a loan striker in…he looks terrible.
Don’t get me started on Beestin…who did he think he was trying that, Pirlo ?
