He's deffo lost the dressing room, the players are done with him i recon, he's digging some out out (as he does) and they dont like it
He's not dug out a single player in his post-match, but let's not let facts get in the way of a good axe-grinding, right?

I find that baffling. At least he was trying to do something inventive! It's hard to constantly keep picking the ball up in your own half and having to beat 5 players to get anywhere near the goal.
Hes trying but his confidence is clearly gone. He picks the ball up and hasnt got a clue where his teammates are because we have no patterns of play. Other than hoof it long.

Where did you hear that?

I can't really remember, 1 of the many podcast I take in.

They were saying he likes the attackers to play off the cuff and remain unpredictaable

It seems quite obvious to me that the team has no kind of build up play.

What 2021 will bring:

* Real will sack Zidane with a new manager who wants to give youth a go. The first move is to active the buy-back clause on Reguillon.
* After a long season Harry decides that he's ready for the next step. Next stop Pep Station.
* Bayern splash the cash and sign Son who is pleased to go back to Germany and win things

Why on earth would we have a team that is "sad". The players we have should be more than a match for Brighton, injuries or no injuries.

We don't attack as a team.

I hear that JM doesn't really train attacking patterns.

This is why we can't ever come from behind, it's fine when you have World class talents like at Madrid, Inter etc.

That's it really, Sneijder, Modric, Essien, Makelele, Lampard.

Winks , Sissoko, Gedson, Lamela, Gluten free Bale, a never fit GLC .

This team is systemically/endemically broken.

Oh and by the way Graham Souness is a useless tosser. I don't care what he says about us as long term as he talks sense. Some of what he says makes you think he hasn't got a clue.

Because it won't solve anything. The problems at Spurs started years before Mourinho arrived and will persist long after he leaves (whenever that happens to be) unless there is a fundamental change in the whole culture of the club.

If Mourinho is to blame, explain why we played precisely the same way against Brighton tonight as we did against them in October last year, a month before he arrived?

Explain to me why we capitulated to Liverpool once again as we have time and again before Mourinho arrived?

Explain to me why shipping three goals against a side like West Ham was not a surprise as a Spurs fan - we've seen it time and again before Mourinho arrived.

That's why.
I asked questions @HedgieSpur . If you're going to disagree at least have a stab at answering them.

Yep, and we’ll still end up with more points than we did in the 20/21season.

Even without Kane, Reguilon and Aurier if you can’t organise a squad full of very good players like ours to put up a match against Brighton then you really shouldn’t be in charge. It’s as simple as that.
Very good? That's generous to the point of lavish.
