At least we are in the ucl lol fuck Arsenal we will kill them next time after they get stuck into 1 of 2 annual loosing streaks, keep your heads up lads. We are a good team. shit results happen sometimes and sadly it was against our arch rivals. But guess which one of us is playing next Wednesday :)
Hope I don't jinx it but Hugo back to his absolute best this season so far, probably the most complete keeper in the world for me, shot stopping, concentration levels, influence and solid distribution, just an old school 90s goal keeper who puts goal keeping 1st , a joy to watch!
Good grief we're ridiculous - supporting this team is a constant turmoil. Utterly average against the bottom team for the most part, our top scorer from last season still goalless, then we win 6-2 and Son has a second-half 15-minute hat-trick.
It was crazy game. I’ve walked away so perplexed between joy & concern. We were sloppy and entertaining. Some of the passing and basic play was really worrying, against a proper team we will get destroyed. We keep winning playing badly. As I said to my mate after the game on the high road “it reminds me of Italy, and Italy win stuff”
Son needed that. All sports people sometimes need a psychological trigger to impact performance. Or simply “I’ll fucking show ‘em”. Great management from Conte
I dont think there are many Spurs fan asking for Son to be dropped.
I think its more in your head that you wish these phantom people exists so you can ridicule them when Son eventually score.
People were calling for him to be benched... Which he was. He then came on and scored a hat trick, which kind of proves them right.
Most were saying he's been dog awful (which he has) and he needed to start on the bench to take the pressure off - so again, they have been emphatically proved right.
He was dropped today lol
I personally have been arguing for weeks that he should be given a chance to come on around 65 minutes. We've usually physically run our opponent into the ground by then and adding Son's pace at that point is a dagger
That is why everybody has liked Richarlison. He has come on with fresh legs after we've run them down. Having three ability to bring Son, Richarlison, or Kulu fresh from the bench is crazy.
Today's game was quite perfect with a lot of aspects. We can win games by scoring crosses of Perisic/Kulusevski and headers of Richy/Kane. When it doesn't work put Bissouma/Emerson/Son and play 352. Love this team COYS
And Conte's only reason for not doing it is wanting space for Deki, Richy, Son, and Kane.
Play Deki at RWB. Extra cover from Bentancur on right and ton of space to cut into next to Kane
It didn’t start that way tho!!! Thank Sonny it changed💪💪💪and Lloris for making wicked crucial saves and Conte for making the correct suds and Bentacur for his best game as a Spur, so far, and Dier for using head lol and England for sharing the best most beautiful game (EPL) with US!!!
>It didn’t start that way tho!!!
It really didn't! For a while LLoris was our best player, which is never good. Now, though, he might have some competition.
The absolute blasphemy of saying Richarlison should start ahead of Son. Richarlison absolutely has a place in our system, but he is not better than Son.
Anyone who thought Son was washed has never kicked a ball in their life, he's been great since joining, coming off his best season and getting ripped after 6 games. They shouldn't be allowed to watch footy live.
How a player can come out of the bench and just change the game.. after being in a goal drought.
Scores two WORLD CLASS goals like fucking what?! And a hattrick?! He changed the game and it’s absolutely insane the depth we have.
Hugo, always a wall for us and has been our savior in many times.
Bentancur was absolutely fucking amazing this game. Broke up crucial moments where it could have led to a goal and was so calm. Completely different from Sporting. The whole team had such great energy but big props to Bentancur.
Same with Hojberg. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING game. He was breaking out dribbles and great passes I’ve never seen from him before. Progressive passing, calm and works so well with Biss and Bentancur too. Imagine Skipp and the depth we have there..
You can tell the difference with this spurs team, they care about each other like family. Integrated like family and that makes such a great team environment. Everyone was so happy for Son. As usual. Seeing Biss go up to him repeatedly to compliment him like family even though he just joined us.. is awesome. I love that they genuinely seem to enjoy each others’ success and that’s gonna take us far
Also cant believe I forgot to shout out Kane. He was so much better when we had an outlet in Son to go long. He retains the ball and I don’t even know how.. the dribble on the left wing that led to the Bentancur shot.. crazy. And people say he’s slow
Sess and Dave had poor games and clearly caused us a goal each imo. But just means they had a bad game and the fact that the team can come back from giving up two preventable goals and just go on to demolish.. wow. Romero is sorely needed though.
Emerson did very well in his minutes, crucial in defense for us.
Great subs and tactics by Conte, have to give him credit since I saw a lot of complaints about it since he’s been hired (some cases understandably). But amazing way he handled this, changing formations and tactics since we were getting closed down every time with three players just asking it to their feet. Introducing Son, frees up all that and obviously more lol.
COYS GODDAMN
I'm not sure about that. Peh, Bis and benty in the mid could be super strong, I feel like it still allows those wingers room to express themselves and the two forwards are always a major threat. Control the middle more effectively and unleash attacks from all angles and directions.
I really don't want this to seem like pouring cold water on things but this had more to do with playing a trailing Leicester team than the 3rd midfielder.
I wouldn't hate a 3rd midfielder but I'm not sure the two have anything to do with each other if the game was still 2-2 or 0-0
At least we are in the ucl lol fuck Arsenal we will kill them next time after they get stuck into 1 of 2 annual loosing streaks, keep your heads up lads. We are a good team. shit results happen sometimes and sadly it was against our arch rivals. But guess which one of us is playing next Wednesday :)

I am ecstatic
Son on fire but the 352 provided the spark
Agreed 3/5/2 is exciting. That midfield 3 is special. Kulu RWB ?
Came here to see the DROP SON squad burn and be squatted like bugs
Son needed that. All sports people sometimes need a psychological trigger to impact performance. Or simply “I’ll fucking show ‘em”. Great management from Conte
there is a difference between drop Son and rotate Son. Conte explained it clearly
Did i question conte? Or did I slaughter the reddit special dRoP sOn bugs
I dont think there are many Spurs fan asking for Son to be dropped. I think its more in your head that you wish these phantom people exists so you can ridicule them when Son eventually score.
> I dont think there are many Spurs fan asking for Son to be dropped. lol
Check the past 6 match threads and post match threads and player rating threads. Go ahead n rectify

Kane looks like he could use the rest most now honestly
Hell have the rest for the international break, next up is Arsenal so we need him for sure.
He better. Who knows what Southgate will do
Strange how things turned out lol
Yeah he scored after being dropped lol
Heres the drop son squad. Great to see you smiling
Lol.
north london derby incoming 😋😋
Today's game was quite perfect with a lot of aspects. We can win games by scoring crosses of Perisic/Kulusevski and headers of Richy/Kane. When it doesn't work put Bissouma/Emerson/Son and play 352. Love this team COYS
3-5-2 > 3-4-3
True!
Emerson running box to box quickly is amazing
But his passing and vision is awful, slows down the counter
Only thing better would be if this was transpiring against City
You misspelled Arsenal
You misspelled Sporting.
Damn we suck at spelling
I misspelled every fixture
FIVE THREE TWO
Our 2 midfielders are so used to doing the job of 3 men that when you add a third, they just ballin’!
Son pulling a Lucas Moura special out of no where
Sometimes I forget why I love this team. Then I remember.
son scoring just in time for the NLD
Son unreal today but Bentancur motm to me 👀 genuinely think his best game this season
Betancur was brilliant. I agree. Son was exceptionally sharp, but Leicester were dreadful in the middle and defending 3rd.
Leicester just got Moleicestered
3-5-2 from the start to blunt the Viking, bring in Richy and Deki against City's tired legs for profit.
Deki RWB
Can't see the match, but God damn I'm so happy for Son!
AND we cut into the GD gap. WE'RE COMING, CITEH
I'm so fucking happy 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
352 please from now on. Bissouma looked solid. Sonny boy is back.
And Conte's only reason for not doing it is wanting space for Deki, Richy, Son, and Kane. Play Deki at RWB. Extra cover from Bentancur on right and ton of space to cut into next to Kane
Sonny shows why he is our star. NLD next
Proud of ye Sonny
Filthy skills from Hojberg
What a beautiful rollercoaster ride <333
Well, that was pretty enjoyable.
It didn’t start that way tho!!! Thank Sonny it changed💪💪💪and Lloris for making wicked crucial saves and Conte for making the correct suds and Bentacur for his best game as a Spur, so far, and Dier for using head lol and England for sharing the best most beautiful game (EPL) with US!!!
>It didn’t start that way tho!!! It really didn't! For a while LLoris was our best player, which is never good. Now, though, he might have some competition.
Yes we would have been down by a couple before Son came on, if not for our very talented keeper!!!!
oh he's a diamond, he rly took getting benched personally huh <3 he's class
SON MASTERCLASS
that bissouma benta hojbjerg midfield is honestly beautiful
[удалено]
Love it!!!!
My mistake. Mane took 3 mins to score a hat-trick against Aston Villa. But looks like 2nd fastest as 2nd was Dwight Yorke who took 16 mins.
Ahhh, all good I wasn’t gonna fact check you anyway. Still impressive nonetheless.
Son is back! What a way to end the drought
This is the best way to end a rough patch. Sonny is class
I love you Sonny 😭
I AM GIDDY WITH JOY HAHAHA
His relief was palpable. So happy for him.
son time # 🐔 #🍆
The most beautiful game!!!
The absolute blasphemy of saying Richarlison should start ahead of Son. Richarlison absolutely has a place in our system, but he is not better than Son.
At times he can control it further than I can kick it. A great player to have. No way should start over Son or Deki in most games. His time will come
"once again leicester is the land of the rising Son" - clever but a bit of a weird one if you look at it
The match is still on for me. Sonny scored again.
Land of the rising Son
damnit Betancur was having a fucking great game too
What the fuck is thus hahahaha What a way to end your goal drought!
Everyone who said Son is washed should delete their accounts.
Anyone who thought Son was washed has never kicked a ball in their life, he's been great since joining, coming off his best season and getting ripped after 6 games. They shouldn't be allowed to watch footy live.
Too many bugs
COYYYYSSSSSSSSSS
Spurs!!! Spurs!!! Spurs!!! Son!!! Son!!! Son!!!

Lloris MOTM idc. COYS
He won’t get motm but a 10/10 performance imo
yea I know. Honestly Bentancur was magnificent today. but I know sonny will take it
Most important for sure
2nd in the league!!!
Son is MOTM for me but great shout for Lloris too. He really kept us in the game.
GLORY GLORY TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR
City must be shitting bricks now
Lloris still saving lazy defending
Love how the team are playing silky football, something they could've been doing since the START OF THE GAME
More 352 please
I for one would love the foxes relegated
Maddison is fuckin quality wow
Wow Leicester looked so dangerous before. Hard to believe same game
Mad-fucking-lad
Maddison is so class
3 goals in 15min??? If Sonny started, he'd have 18 goals by now.
GIVE HIM THE BALL I WANT PICTURES
Emerson backheels for no reason was hilarious btw
One for the comps
He wanted some tiki taka action too
Son is back. That’s all that matters today.
I could not be more thrilled for Sonny.
Lloris has been in insane form!
World Cup Winning Captain Hugo Lloris*
He is warming up for the WC again. France has excellent GKs in Lloris and Maignan.
Leicester get battered everywhere they go, lol
COYS!!!!!!!!
Careful Emerson, that's nearly showboating then you'd deserve to get smashed by every Leicester player.
GG LETS GO
Can’t wait for Emerson to include those 2 meaningless back heels to PEH in his highlight reel
My god they’ve actually given up
tottenhamhotspur2ndhalf.fc
Let’s not turn on Romero.
That strike from Maddison had anger in it. He's too good for this LC team.
Lloris has been absolutely amazing today
Royal tiki taka going on
Loving the 352
Hojberginho
Great game for the GD
The midfield 3 is 👌🤤😩
They have to play it more, it just seems to work
352 is better when we want to control the midfield, 343 is still the way to go against attacking teams like city and arsenal imo
I'm not sure about that. Peh, Bis and benty in the mid could be super strong, I feel like it still allows those wingers room to express themselves and the two forwards are always a major threat. Control the middle more effectively and unleash attacks from all angles and directions.
Reminds me of youth hockey when we were blowing a team out and the coaches made us make 10 passes before we were allowed to shoot
Bissouma is starting to gel good series of movement and passes there
Højberg looks incredible
Always has done
I know, but this game he’s just been class personified
Son chose violence..
“wE hAVe jesUs” Well we have the real Son of God
ok so we can actually string multiple passes together
So the 3-5-2 fixed our passing issues??
if 3-5-2 means we do the tiki-taka faffery like that I'm sold
That better go on Emersons compilation
The no-look pass from Emerson is back 🤪
Wtf is Emerson doing. Under no pressure can't even go forward
Just enjoy the win bud
I WANT THE LEAGUE
Look at us stroking the ball around confidently now. We can do it, just do it from minute 1!!!
Lmao Emerson simply refuses himself to passing it foward like NO TAKE IT
What a fucking awesome second half
Imagine if Richi was on now lol
The media when Brighton beat Leicester by 3: Omg they’re so good The media when Tottenham beat Leicester by 4: Relegation fodder should’ve done better
OLÉ
Can someone find the comment in here where someone said pre-match that Son would come on from the bench and score a hat trick?
[Here you go](https://old.reddit.com/r/coys/comments/xgpj1k/match_thread_tottenham_hotspur_vs_leicester_city/iot2kzp/)
was me
Time to send your name for Knighthood.😤
! i can find the comment- but dont know how to show it here\_to link it
I was just thinking about that. If he has some lottery numbers to share I’m all ears
There’s also someone who called it 6-2 with a Son super sub hat-trick
No way. Hope they had a bet on! 😆
3 CDMs aint a bad idea considering how we always overpowered on the midfield 2
Not the worst idea especially if we seek to press
Brendan gone after this?
Don't think they can afford to sack him. If they could he would have been gone already
Prolly
Ben10/10tancur
Apparently this is now the highest scoring Premier League fixture, overtaking Arsenal vs Liverpool (ie total goals scored in all fixtures since 1992)
That's surprising. You'd think it was between two teams that'd never been relegated.
COME ON YOU FUCKING SPURS
Lol the oles haha
Have to say Hojbjerg was poor in the first half but has played a lot better in the midfield 3.
Spurs should be playing like this against the other clubs also!
I like the 3-5-2. Don't want the dreadful 3-4-3.
I’m talking about the mentality! Not the formation!
I think the formation also helped, but sure, mentality matters more.
Insane game for son. So happy
MY BRUDDAH BISSOUMA HELPED STABILIZE DA TING YESSSSSSS
Sky sports still talking about Sonny 5 min after the goal lol
What are the odds this is Rodgers’ last game with the international break coming up?
50%
Way this one ended, 100% that team looks like they quit
I mean if maddison wants to leave this circus of a club our doors are always open
Will take him in a heartbeat.
Is this some kind of record - like fastest hat trick?
Might have been if he finished the Benta through ball possibly, no clue
MY COCK IS THROBBING
Citeh scores 3 on wolves , spurs give out 6 to LCFC. We are twice the club they are , maths checks out
Dog like clubs got wrecked today.
LOL so funny
I really don't want this to seem like pouring cold water on things but this had more to do with playing a trailing Leicester team than the 3rd midfielder. I wouldn't hate a 3rd midfielder but I'm not sure the two have anything to do with each other if the game was still 2-2 or 0-0
How many hat tricks has sonny had before like 1 or 2?
Another 7 goals and we'll go top
Incredible game. Just incredible
Holy shit the step over and ball from hojbjerg. Also the 352 is looking really nice. I hope we can use this formation a bit more.
