FA Cup is so different

Poch and most of our squad don't understand how to play an FA cup tie against lower league opposition. It's probably only the British lads who do and they don't always play.
It has to be ground out, simple passing and tackling game, no fancy moves and tikki takka in midfield.
The oppo are playing their big game, they win more ball and fight that bit harder, more physically.
So now that's Wycombe last year and Newport and Rochdale this year. Pretty soon we are gonna be on the end of a giant killing.

We made 11 changes - that’s a whole new team

Therefore it was always going t be a difficult task and in the end 2-2 was a fair result.

We will beat them at Wembley regardless of the starting XI.

We were supposed to beat them today, regardless of the starting XI. Football don`t work like that. It is only a matter of time keep changing the team, that Spurs will get beaten.

That’s the problem.

Rotation a whole 11 players a problem, who would have thought so.

It’s the gulf in class from a poor juventusside to a Rochdale, that spurs find hard it’s s hel of a step up.

So we need to play like it’s 1988 to get by in the FA Cup?

I think not.

FA Cup hard work, just keeping pace in the PL and doing quite well in the CL but we are still missing that extra step up, that extra goal which I hope will come son because we're not going to beat the big boys if we struggle to beat the minnows.
