So easy to play against. Stay in the game as we always miss a shit ton of chances and 9/10 that’s enough

I'm putting a lot of blame on Kulu for this. Sad to say it, but I haven't rated him since the first half season. He's shown nothing since then, and then we went and bought him. Just slows down the game every single time. Shame.
Um did you not watch the game Vs city?

That's the first game this season I've been genuinely angry about. We literally gifted them the win. We desperately need more quality in attacking positions in January if we are going to get anything out of this season.

We do want that. We can't be doing with starting all of this shit all over again under yet another coach.
Carry on like this we will end up in an entertaining relegation battle. 1 point in 15 games, injuries and suspensions or not, is simply unacceptable. Two home games running Ange has been outsmarted at half time by his opposite number.

Played into their hands. We are a very naive team.

Can’t keep losing at home. Pathetic.

why did we think that slinging balls in to their box was ever going to work? Like you said we are such a naive football club. We’ve all seen that exact game a hundred times over.

For everyone saying we were great in the first half, I disagree. We didn’t create anything of any real note the entire game apart from the Richarlison miss.

Kulu was dreadful. Likewise Johnson. Son looked like he was playing with a bit of a knock. Richarlison is shit. Honestly don't know why Skipp was on the pitch. Just a horrible performance all round outside of maybe Porro.

Oof! This one hurts. I’ve not been disappointed all season. But this one hurts.

We’re going to have a lot of these hyper frustrating results until we seriously strengthen our forward line. Remove Son and it’s absolutely rank average. Absolutely light years from being a top 4 quality attack.

There’s been a lot of positives about our recruitment in the last few windows, but it’s worth repeating : £100m spent on Richarlison and Johnson 😬.

Loads of work to do. If sonny doesn’t score we’re screwed. No ideas what to do with a low block.
We've created loads of opportunities (more than i've ever seen) with Ange against low blocks.
Just the players in the final third making wrong/bad choices like taking a shot when there's a ball for a tap in or poor final ball.

It's never nice when anti football like that wins out but we simply have to be better.

I'd imagine Richarlison won't sleep tonight after that miss. As they went 2-1 up not long after.

Fair play to Moyes. Good changes to their tactics at HT and took their chances. Disappointing. January can’t come any sooner

Can't blame it all on injuries. Some of our play tonight reminded of the Sideway Samways days. Ange needs to stick his mitt up tonight also.
On the bright side, I'm 40,000 feet up in the air enroute to Cancun for a friend's wedding. Spurs certainly know how to put a dampener on things.

I think we've been incredibly competitive since Chelsea given the absentees but tactically we were a bit toothless today. Apart from pressing we didn't do much.

Genuine question- how do the full backs being stationed so high up the pitch actually help us? Leaves us quite exposed and they just seem to clog up the pitch for the attackers. Give me an overlapping full back any day.
It seemed to work perfectly well when we had all our players fit and got our best start since 1960 to a league season ;)
