And watching Collins, it’s noticeable how narrow we defend against teams that play with wide wingers. And he has to make up a lot of ground just to get to them once the long ball out to the wing is played.
I had high hopes for JC’s return. But he has been caught napping a few times it’s fair to say.

And I’m not saying Collins had a good game but he certainly wasn’t at fault for any of the goals.


Didn’t you get the memo on the new scapegoat?


Oh good, at least it gives JR a week off lol

JC was the 'best thing sinced sliced bread' up until the end of November; and Siopis until about four games ago...

Hero to zero in the flick of a computer button...! :roll:

It’s been hard watching Siopis’ game decline over recent games. His effectiveness has decreased quite a lot. For whatever reason. But we saw what he’s capable of in his early games and you don’t lose that overnight. I can’t wait to see him back on top of his game.
But has there been some comments of him and a couple of others struggling with illness this week? Someone mentioned it in conversation today. But haven’t read anything.

Lost me there mate if you were using my statement as quote, I am saying when someone else is getting flack it gives our captain a break as some on here criticise him even when he gets MoM.

Steward in the stand where I sit said about Etete: glad he’s gone off, fcuk Bambi he looks more like a new born giraffe

How he was on the books at Spurs is a mystery, he’s lazy, 99% of the time he’s on his heels where as a striker you should be on your toes constantly looking for the ball through. He never puts pressure on the keeper, the formation were playing you put pressure on the keeper, more mistakes happen when the keeper has to rush :banghead:
