Car crash playing them next to each other

Agreed both players are horrible but thought their second goal was good cross and excellent finish from Moore.

Sanchez for the 1st goal was awful. Wtf was he doing?!!?

Yep. It’s a nightmare mate.

Best Emerson moments:

Swivel in the box, attempts a volley and send the ball out of the stadium and into the orbit!

Gives the fake look and pass, but sends the ball out



...anymore?

Horrendous players. Don't know why they weren't sold in the summer. They're bad enough around decent players next to them but when they play together we're capable of losing to anyone.

Maybe no one wanted them?

We have lots of players already out on loan we couldn’t sell

Obviously just the rumour mill, but there was a fair bit of talk of Emerson to Atleti.

Either way, I'm sure we could have loaned them out. Neither should have been in our squad with both positions prioritised. Ideally in Feb both will be gone. Even cheap options like Lenglet are a huge upgrade, hopefully Paratici can find a solution.

Spurs need two quality CBs. Sanchez nay not be the answer, but neither are Dier, Romero or Davies. Those three are equally as bad.

Didn't Spurs win the last four or five games of last season with Sanchez in defence. No Romero. Four clean sheets. Supporters have very short memories. Didn't hear a peep out of the haters when Sanchez put in a faultless display in the 3-0 win over Arsenal.

agreed

a whole host of players we have been carrying and relying in, who would not even get in the top 6 imo

Like day follows night, there's Sandy on any article criticising Sanchez with a "Romero is just as bad" comment.

He's not Sandy, he's really not.

Sanchez and Royal are the villains of the piece. Throw in the 3D's, a bit of slapstick from Hugo & Sess every now and again and we've got ourselves a hit.

A confident CB with a bit of class has to be the priority. A Toby MK II to play alongside Romero and Lenglet with Dier as a useful backup. If we need to splash out so be it

Need two mate. I really don't rate Romero like some on the board. Fine as a squad player, but makes lots of mistakes, and cannot defend a setpiece to save his life.

He's our best defender IMO. Unlike the others, I can see the potential in Romero. I think he's got a bit more in the offing. I hope he starts on Tuesday put it that way.

Sandy, you seem to be the only one that doesn’t rate Romero mate, yet you rate Sanchez. What does that say? Romero is a fantastic defender with faults agreed, but how is that his fault when he has utter dross beside him? Romero isn’t as bad as Sanchez etc, not even remotely close

Can’t think of who’s worse out of Aurier or Royal

To quote Roy Keane - "dumb and dumber I'd call them".

Sanchez has been at the club 5 years and his first season was the best season. We have not seen anything other than mediocre to bad displays ever since and he's 26 now so has lost the 'young and can improve' tag. Simply shouldn't be at the club anymore.

Emerson is poor but he doesn't have to be played as much as he is. That's kind of on the manager. I refuse to believe Spence would do any worse with the same number of appearances.

This. One of my pet hates with Conte is the Spence situation. How can he be any worse than Royal?

I don't get it mate. He's even rotated Royal and Spence still doesn't get the look ins. The fact that Spence is taller and quicker would surely give him some advantages in attacking and defending that Emerson doesn't have? Like he could reach balls to head them out more easily or track back more easily.

It’s actually starting to look personal with Spence

It’s a strange one but also matches his ‘club purchase’ remarks when we signed him ….just don’t think he ever wanted him at all and is making that clear

It's either stubbornness from Conte or Spence is seriously underperforming in training, but as you say due to Conte's comments it implies it's stubbornness in not willing to play a player he didn't want in the first place. Perhaps he's using him as a message to the board that they sign players he wants or they won't get played.

Don, I didn't say I rate Sabchez, just think he is no better nor no worse than any of our CBs.

He is very reckless, and often gets caught on the ball. The bar is very low on CBs at WHL, since Toby and Verts departed.

That said I shall continue to support whoever is picked, until better replacements can be found. I try not to have personal vendettas against players.

Don, Sprnce as I suspected, is a Championship player trying to step up to the Pren, and is not very good. Sessignon is the same.
