With five goals in 21 minutes, Newcastle United (6-1) smashed an embarrassing bottom-bottom Tottenham Hotspur, big words for these “spurs”, and they need a new coach to replace the interim Christian Stellini and bring stability to the team. Don’t fall off the European posts.
The “magpies” occupied the second-fastest hand in the history of the English Premier League, after the one that Manchester City presented to Watford in 2019. They have liquidated Tottenham, which they have lost since the departure of Antonio Conte, and this threatens to decline until they are allowed to go to the Champions League positions and remain To see if this is also the case in the Europa League.
This Tottenham, who is no longer worth it alone with Harry Kane and Hong-min Son, is also a disaster without Conte on the bench, because the Italian was replaced by his assistant, Christian Stellini, who did not change anything and what changed was for the worse.
Against Newcastle, one of the best teams in the league, he decided to come out with a four-man defense, a strategy rarely seen in the post-Pochettino-Tottenham era, and the experience couldn’t go wrong. Every time Newcastle had possession of the ball, it was a goal.
Jacob Murphy, after a bad rebound from Hugo Lloris, opened the party in the second minute, Joelinton continued by beating the back of Pedro Burrow and dribbling in the Lloris goal, and Murphy himself scored the third goal, before the 10th minute, with a wonderful shot from outside the area.
“It’s such a shame,” they pointed out on the UK’s Sky Sports broadcast, but Tottenham still had two more ridiculous sessions left before responding. Alexander Isaac beat Lloris twice before the 21st minute and put his “hand” on the scoreboard after this week, and Daniel Levy confirmed in an interview that Tottenham is the best team in the world. Doubtful to say the least.
Stellen forced a reply and removed Sarr from midfield to bring in a third centre-back, Davinson Sanchez. The match was tied, although before the break they could still concede two more goals to Tottenham, but already completely lost to Tottenham. The Italian coach removed Lloris at halftime to bring out the substitute goalkeeper. declaration of intent.
Harry Kane stopped the bleeding with a goal of ‘honour’, which shows he is above this team’s aspirations and that Levy will need more than pleading with ‘The Legend’ to keep him for another year.
To cap off the embarrassment, Callum Wilson made it 6-1 and the Spurs got a bunch from the presumed direct challenger to the “Champions”. But that fourth place looks as distant as ever, and although they are only six points behind them – two games more than Manchester United -, the feelings are terrible for “Tottenham”, who need to find a coach as soon as possible. This week, in addition, Manchester United (Thursday) and Liverpool (Sunday) are measured.
Newcastle, with these three points, already has six points compared to fifth place.
