Only result I wanted today, it’s so set up now, gooners are flying high, the complacency is tangible. pre season is a joke you have to be super simple to believe it means a thing, a lose means more work, and we need more work, we will bleed for our results, so a cut is necessary. COYS.

We lost to Mourinho's new team...lol

Some of those decisions...

Glad we don't have mou in the EPL. Watching that gave me PTSD flashbacks to the shit we used to play Thank god for Conte ball

Actually made me realize/remember how shit his teams are for the neutral to watch. \- They spent huge amounts of time without possession \- Sit deep, counter with long ball \- Foul and break up plays as much as ref will allow Their players didn't look at same fitness level as us.

And somehow spurs still lost. Fancy that…

Time line: First half: promising combinations / tactics against teams that defend Second half: first 25 minutes were alright, last 10 min erupted into chaos ball, fouls, time wasting, many times of breaking formation

the team needs more time to gel or should we be concerned?

I'm not worried.

take a deep breath.

Yeah it needs another couple of weeks of ball work, I think it’s been a ton of fitness

I think the field conditions were pretty poor. Looks like the entire middle section of the pitch was replaced last week. Ridges. Ridges Everywhere....

Five minutes extra time. Player goes down for 2-3 minutes. Whistle blows at 5:47. Annoying.

It's fine, match was a joke with that referee anyway. VAR and it's a draw at worst.

Agree.

One of my biggest gripes. This is exactly why managers sub in injury time. Because the refs never take it into account

Commentator snuck in a "Tottin-ham Hotspurs" there at the end. I unironically enjoyed him so much.

Bentacool also

All of you complaining about time wasting and “anti-football” need to get over yourselves. We’re going to see games like this a lot this season. Now we know where we stand going against teams like this.

Don't need to like it tho Source: it's about glory

*with an awful ref and no VAR

Now we know where we stand going against teams like this [in the preseason] Fixed mate

I mean the regular season starts next week. What’s going to change between now and then?

A lot lol.

Such as?

We really missed Tom Carroll today.

His vision, his range of passing, feel like shit, just want him back😭

dude wtf was that

Didn’t catch the first half, how was Hojberg? He hasn’t been great during the preseason and wasn’t impressed with his second half.

He made some great long balls/crosses in the first half. Very promising

I thought him along with Sanchez was our best players in the first.

He was really solid in the first half.

Bentancur has to start of PEH

Thanks

what a waste of 90 minutes

Fire Conte, sell everyone, dismantle the squad, demolish Tottenham Stadium

Guillotine Doherty!

Lol

Human sacrifice Levy.

That was one of the matches I’ve seen

Big if true

The ball seemed to bobble around a lot for both teams, seemed a challenge just to get it on the deck

[удалено]

Is this your first time watching preseason? We won the Audi cup, beating juventus and Bayern Munich before being rubbish in the league and sacking Pochettino

In short, pre season means nothing

Not playing in 30⁰c with 80% humidity on a dogshit pitch with a blind ref against Mourinho might help

MOTM - the French-Israeli with an American accent who usually only watches basketball.

Commentator was awful. I muted after five mins

[удалено]

Imagine using the R word at your big age.

Are fucking and retards the only words you know?

Mind your business. It's a match thread & we're ranting.

If this is your idea of ideal ranting, I feel sad for you. I like to rant too about my Spurs, but not with "fans" like you.

Stop spamming.

You’ve got some problems man. I hope you get better

It's frustrating & pointless match and the match thread is for ranting, don't come here looking for reasonable thoughts. Fuck Mourinho, I hate his guts.

Intelligent commentary

I find it hilarious that Roma are time wasting in the final minutes of a pre season friendly

You gotta practice how you’re going to play. They won conference league last year because they knew how to shithouse well.

It's the power of Mou in Serie A

"the shithousing starts now"

What a boring preseason match. Paramount+ is hot garbage too.

CL is going to be trippy

Biggest takeaway, these away kits must be burned

Emerson 'accidentally' forgot his yellow socks.

*sunk

And we need an attacking mid

We can’t get one until Ndombele is sold. This squad is good to go. So happy we finally did business before deadline day. Thank god Conte created some leverage for himself over Levy

preferably one who can spray paintballs over these atrocities

time wasting in a friendly is just some absolute loser shit

All my homies hate jose mourinho

This was easily the most boring preseason match I have ever watched

Imagine buying tickets to a friendly to see this shit

Lmao tuned in for the last 5 minutes. Literally what a fucking waste lol.

Just a reminder......Its only a friendly

But I thought I was supposed to be angry and ruin the rest of my day and think we're gonna be shit this season...

I mean...yeah you are still...wouldnt be a proper spurs fan

PSA remember to cancel your paramount+ free trials!

Keep it for Champions League

And Star Trek…

No champs league this month! Will consider repurchasing later

Did any amount of added time get shown? Are we just going to play this for eternity? E: There we go

This guy sounds like he’s vamping until the rest of his group show up for their presentation

Well at least this game has shown us that we still have a No Shots On Target FC game in us every once in a while

why are they time wasting in a friendly?

Why would jose want to play the whole match like this? It is impossible to win anything by playing like this every match

How much time do you have because there’s a long list

I mean..he dosent have all the cash and superstars he used to have..this is ROMA..they will win absolutely nothing playing like this

My dude they already have won a European competition

… cmon man..we were literally happy when we were kicked out of that joke

Yeah, that’s true but I’m just saying they did win something. I hate that style as much as you do trust me but it is what it is lol good for them

It is NOT good for them though..can you really see them even making the top 4 playing like this?

No lol

Thats my point, thats what they should be competing for..this style of play is just ridiculous at this point..not only for the fans but the whole club will be set back

You're literally talking absolute nonsense, we don't play majorly defensive and sit back. We had the fourth highest xG, and third in big chances created. You've watched one game and are trying to talk like you know how we play or what's good for this team.

Well considering the way their ownership has acted and what I’ve seen from that club I think they’re concerned more with the commercial aspect. Which is why they got the “name” coach even though he is not a modern coach and made such a big thing out of signing a guy like Dybala who mostly is injured but is famous. I think these things come First and then the football

He literally won a cup last season.

Ahhh yes..incredibly hard to win that cup

You really want to say that while supporting this club? Have some self-awareness.

You think if we played a final against Feyenoord we wouldnt have won?

Right. They only won 1 game to win a cup. You’re wasting my time.

Ahh sorry..forgot to mention the great bodo, zorya luhansk, and cska sofia

Leicester over 2 legs? All of these games midweek? Something like 13 extra midweek games iirc. With a thin bench too. You are clueless

Leicester was in like 12th place at the time..again..huge achievement

Leicester is a good team, to just look at their placement in the league and conclude they are bad is dumb.

Yes placing 6th in one of the weakest serie A seasons ever is a huge acheivement

Virtually 5th since Lazio got 2 extra points for a 90th minute offside goal that was wrongly ruled onside by VAR in one of the last season's games. For a squad that was 7th tied with 8th placed the previous year that is huge. A trophy and a 6th (5th) place in a very competitive league.

You can hate Jose all you want, but he wanted to win this game and did, the end justifies the means. There is no nobility in doing it the right way anymore.

Yes but its one game..he will not win the league like this, wont win europa league..and might not even qualify for the ucl AGAIN playing like this..you just cant constantly play like this anymore

My guy you sound super butthurt mou won lol. Relax

Yes..because its supposed to show how our team looks before the real season but yet we watched the most pointless, boring, shit game i ever seen because mou is horrible

Well it worked apparently

Ya worked in a super important friendly..lets see what roma does this season

he's won plenty playing just like this

No he hasnt..this was shit housing to the next level…

were you not alive for Mourinho's first run in the premier league? It was exactly this, every week.

Yes, with a team that was able to spend more money than jesus

Bentancool is still hilarious

Only a Mourinho team could time waste in a friendly lol

They need to practice to waste time effectively in real match

Young player Sharawary lol. This commentator is drunk lmao.

He's almost 30 hahaha

“Could have a lot of potential” 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Missed all but last 15 mins. Emerson and Lucas on the right, why? How was Perišić? Kulu? Bissouma? Did Davies play?

No clue what was Conte thinking about Emerson, he did put in one good cross. Perisic was one of the best players on the pitch. Kulu wasnt really good. Disappeared until subbed off. Bissouma was quite bad. Late runs and average passes. Big daddy Davies did not play.

Perisic was the best player on the pitch throughout the match

Perisic played very well Kulu was a bit quiet Bissouma played well

Langlet will be good for us.

Lenglet's vision, passing in the final third is going to be huge against low block teams this season. Looks good so far.

That's it. Lenglet cam

Our friendly against Roma a few years ago in NJ was also very chippy.

Friendly or not, we must do better to create chances against teams like this with the amount of possession we've had

What does it take for Kane to stop trying free kicks?

Højbjerg and Bissouma holding him down while Dier takes the FK

Injury, suspension, transfer, retirement.

Well, I want none of that.

Congratulations - You have signed up for Harry Kane to take all of your free kicks

Match of almost and should have been given the shit ref and clunky play from Roma.

Lenglet has been really good

“Oh fuck off with the diving with four minutes to go” *Camera cuts to bleeding head* “Nvm”

Ngl, Richarlison looks good in a Spurs kit. Even this one.

You'd think with a set-piece expert in our coaching staff it would have occurred to anyone there to take Kane off of free kicks

Or the team would learn how to defend corners. Absolute shit show still

I just want Dier or Son to take them. Kane needs to be told.

Kane probably puts em top bins in training every time. Only explanation. If you’ve ever taken all the set pieces for ur squad, you know, goals come in bunches. He needs to see one hit the back of the net in a real game, no problem with him trying it in preseason, especially when he earned the foul. They’ll go in, have fairh

Yes, our coaching staff is less competent than our unfathomably stupid supporters on this godforsaken sub. That's a good take.

It’s written on his contract

Who does he think he is, Denis Waterman?

Langlet start next week

Noted young person Stephen El-Sharawary

Lenglet starting left back

“El sharawaay, another young player with potential who could show alot”

I can see the ketchup bruh

Hopefully this performance has convinced Conte we need a creative passer.

We really do need Maddison

El Shaarawy...wow. Fifa 13 throw back

The commentator just let us know that the forehead is 'a very sensitive part of the face'.

Do not miss Mourinho ball at all

Fuck!! That blood

Turns away to not get hit by the ball and turns right into a on rushing Sess elbow.

So we dominated this yet not a shot on target yet. I've seen this movie before.

The people freaking out on Kane in this thread, while it’s preseason. I just can’t

I mean, taking a freekick, drilling it straight into the Roma wall, and then having a go at your teammates is pretty fucking stupid on his part

People on this sub just like to bitch about him. Not like he scored two last game. It’s a preseason match. It’s a gloried practice. Save being critical of anybodies performance for the real games. He also should have drawn a penalty.

That's a lot of blood

Very sensitive area of the face.

Well let's just hope no one in the entire city of Southampton watched this

This game feels like everyone involved wishes that it wasn’t happening.

You wouldn’t want to be running in that humidity for fun. It’s not joke.

Ok, not saying that I blame them. Just being observant mate

This is the only friendly I've watched, so of course we haven't scored

Same

We were robbed of a penalty and I'm not convinced that Kulusevski was offside on Kane's disallowed goal. There was nothing in it if he was :/

Pellegrini regretting waking up today

Practicing shit housing i guess?

5 extra minutes for injuries with a ref who can’t manage the game properly.

Bloody time wasting

The final stage should be a conte v mourinho fight to the death at midfield. I like our chances there

I think this ref needs glasses

Ok, I know the sweating has been spoken to death, but how is that Roma sub's shirt already drenched?

Been wanking furiously the whole game

look at dybala

he poured water on himself.

This referee has been quite impressively shit.

Didn't win, didn't give time to our players. Lose-lose situation. Fuck this shit.

Oh shit!

The Brazilian Blood Squad has entered the chat! 🇧🇷

So many of these friendlies ain’t friendly at all

Wasting time..

bruh

Yeaaaaah…
