I really hope that's the end of Lucas playing centre forward instead of the world's best centre forward.

Up to third, one point off top.

I'd take that with no Dele, Eriksen and Jan to be fair.

Well, it's a win. That's all I got to say about that.

Think Poch has to cool his training regimen. Especially when many of these players have barely gotten a break

Who says he hasn’t? Didn’t he say something about this in his prematch press conference

Its interesting how we interpret results. Its one of spurs best ever performances from the opening 8 games.

Fuck. We need to really go back to basics in terms of Pochs style.

Where's that high intensity pressing game gone?

If we could get our act together after the International break we'd be in business because we're in a good position despite some abject performances.

Players back and back to basics and we could go far this season. But performances of late have to be improved upon.

We have no midfield. Sissoko was genuinely close to being our best player, I had rose just ahead of him

Not bad considering how poorly we're playing.

You have banging on about that all game. Have a look when Moura isn't in the box. Kane is often not there either.

This is all about Kane IMO and will be proved out the next time Moura doesn't play or will it be someone elses fault then.

Results. Certainly not performances.

Third place in the league, just one point behind Liverpool and City, who play eachother tomorrow. We haven't half been shit, but we're still up there and there's a lot of time for us to click. Could be a lot worse.

So tomorrow evening we're at most 4 points off top following our best ever (?) start to a PL season. Not bad.

Another poor performance. That midfield needs it's ass kicked. Winks the only one for me to come out with credit .

Kane,Moura and Son were okay at times.

Back 4 need to show more composure and not rush all the time. It's clear that they are not comfortable this season. The only difference is Toby in the team. Toby had a good game, but the back 4 just don't seem to be clicking.

Glad I couldn’t make the game. Sounds like awful weather and a dire game with an aptly named goal scorer. Still points wise it is as good as we have ever had at this stage of the season and yet we have not played well in any game. If only we can start to play ...

Memo to Poch:

Please start playing Harry Kane as our centre forward.

Thanks

Was tiredness to blame today? We got in some great positions, but every time one of our players received the ball in the box they seemed to forget they're amongst the best players in the league.

Credit to Cardiff who defended well and put in a tenacious performance.
