We beat a team with Kane, Son, Bale, Deli Ali...I rest my case.

Such a change in our defending and tactics over the last couple of months have improved the team beyond measure.
No longer fear corners or high balls is allowing the team to play with confidence. Our close control and quick passing are a joy to watch.
Great performance from a proper team.

We are going to miss Alioski.

3 year deal agreed apparently earning far more than the new contract we offered. Good luck to the lad.

We know he’s not the best left back but with a full strength defence he’s definitely a very strong cog in our link up play going forward. So need Orta to do a Ben White and find the Llorente/Koch solutions to replace him.

This link shows how fluidly we attacked for the 3rd goal, starting from Alioski.... pure nectar

Great team performance, even the subs.

Spurs will lose Kane, maybe even Son. They are desperate for a proper manager, that was dire from them and they never stood a chance against us.

Top 6? Absolutely not a top 6 club. We will have a better chance of making Europe next season than Spurs.

I think every football fan wants the Kane goal to be given in future seasons. For now we use the lines and we got back one of the 4 goals we have had chalked off for millimetres this season which to be honest I’m delighted with. Decisions and luck are supposed to even out over a season. I feel we are still behind on key decisions and millimetre offsides so any we can claw back helps our cause this season. By all means let’s hope they look at the offside rules / var again but I fear whatever method you use we may still get mm decisions.

Yes, Koch, Llorente and Struijk all excelled today. Hard to see Cooper get back in on this sort of performance.

Meslier was immense - two excellent reflex saves.

Agree that man from North Macedonia must stay!

Roberts is putting himself about but not getting anywhere fast.

Klich had his best game for a while.

Bamford was superb in every respect, but I'm very happy for Rodrigo.

And Stewart Dallas strikes again - what a great player!

We really went at them today - that is such a relief after the Brighton game.

Thank you Mr Bielsa.

I think Bielsa has got a left back lined up so Alioski will go somewhere else if it's not Galatasary. He has his limitations there unfortunately and to be fare to him it is not his preferred position and although he was good today their goal was down to him losing his man which has happened a few times.

Not sure how Cooper gets back in this side.

What a luxury to have

We are lucky to support one of the most entertaining teams in world football and it's all down to the genius that is Bielsa.
A big thank you to our management for landing such a brilliant manager.

Wow that must be some sort of record. Don't remember the draws though so must have been in the Championship.

Was one of the best performances, if not best of the season. Arguably are most complete performance. Frustrating that we didn't show 1/10 of that against Brighton.

Can't wait for next season

posted on 8/5/21

We are a good little side a good left back and a good attacker we are in the mix because of our manager

Love this stat - almost unbelievable, but it speaks volumes about this team.

Many interesting things from the game yesterday in a super performance.

One of them was when Phillips came on, Koch stayed in the holding midfielder position and KP played a bit further up.

Maybe Bielsa didn't want to mess too much with a defensive shape that was working well and knew he could rely on Phillips to do what he does further up the park.

I am sure generally we'll see him play in his usual position but shows that Bielsa is always looking for little tweaks like that and thinking about where else players can play when the chance comes along.

Agree Rob - good point about Phillips and Koch. Koch did very well against Spurs in the DM role. Maybe Bielsa can see Phillips taking on Klich's role as the box-to-box attacking midfielder?

Still haven't come down yet - that performance was so goooood!

We did very well against Spurs and I am still on cloud 9 with the result.

I do however want to try and keep my feet on the ground with this one.

Several reasons. Including VAR decision against Kane, albeit we've had our fair share against us and the fact that their players between lloris and the front 4 were literally 'Dier'.

Fair play we made the game passover Bale but he still looked like 'I'm not interested today' - 350K a week?

Aurier couldn't cope with Harrison and Alioski and feigned injury and incredulation as a result on several occasions.
