We’ve created 98 ‘big chances’ this season. Same amount as Sheff U & Burnley combined.
Still cannot believe how many of those 98 we missed last night. That could have been a cricket score.

Like I said Sid, it’s nothing new to us, is it? Bamford should have had 30+ in 19/20. And he wasn’t alone. Getting in those positions is encouraging. Should have had at least 4 though. That was a nailed on penalty right in front of the ref and fuck knows what the thinking was in disallowing the 3rd right at the end.
I think Franks ego helped in that he didn’t attempt to park the bus. If they hadn’t won 4 on the bounce I think his gameplan may have differed. But he gets carried away by his own hubris.

The only explanation I can think of regarding the disallowed 3rd is the linesman didn't think Gnonto had touched it. The ref then went to clarify as we were celebrating and the lino was informed he did touch it so raised his flag.
Would like to see an image of the shot though as Farke said Gnonto wasn't even offside.
That pen shout though...fucking disgrace. He's absolutely clattered through the back of him as he was about to shoot. That's a fucking foul.
Fuck the officials in this League man. They're dreadful at their jobs.

Wow. Just seen that we are only +9 goals away from having our best ever GD in a season. Ever. With 15 to go.

Anyone know whether an 'option to buy' was included in our Solomon loan?
Wonder how much Spurs will value him after the season he's having? 25 yrs old so still got his prime ahead of him.
Took him a while to get into his stride after being out so long, but he's so good now. That wing play to set up Piroe's miss sums him up. Great quick feet, decision making and final ball.

No, no option in the deal for Solomon. He looked different class last night drifting past players.

Think it was just the amount of times last night, one on one’s. Yes barndoor and iirc joseph missed a proper sitter early in one game this year ( burnley?) and cost us dearly,
Good to see us getting in like that, never thought i’d say it but two fullbacks who played last night were excellent going forward.
Two last night were a bit off for me, Ampadu unusually and thought Gruev was very poor last night, seemed to not be able to control the ball or indeed find a yellow shirt when he needed to.
Positive night over all
