We're allowed to be disappointed with performances though. Do you want everyone to form in unison as we cheer a 0-0 draw against Bournemouth?

I don't believe MP is biast in favour of any player, but he needs to understand that Lamela is not a beast in his position - and is actually just above average. Yes, he does bring something to the team, but we shoudln't be building a team around him.
That said, the general level was lacking, and we really needed some flair in what was a relatively open game.
Still unbeaten

I think he linked up well towards their box. He definitely has the least erratic first touch/pass of our forward players.

no point dropping Eriksen if the replacement is Moussa Fucking Sissoko

Sissoko could well get a ban. But in all honesty it won't matter much, he's been totally ineffective since we bought him.

They pressed us well and the ref was shit, however I feel like Poch subs made no sense at all when it's a game we are looking to win

Cant say we at any point played like we deserved to win the game. Needed to be sharper in all areas of our game tbh.

If he has the services he needs, I do not seriously think he even needs to create his own chances...
We spent 58 million pounds this summer on Janssen, Sissoko and Nkoudou. Zero goals and zero assists in the league thus far from these three attacking players. Truthfully, they'd be lucky to tally 5 goals and 5 assists between them this season, as when everyone is fit, they won't be starting.
Should have just put the money together and gone for a proper player like Lacazette.

City Won 6 Drawn 1 Lost 1
Arsenal Won 6 Drawn 1 Lost 1
Spurs Won 5 Drawn 4 Lost 0
That's why we won't be challenging this season, all well and good being unbeaten but way too many draws.

I sorry but this bollocks about being unbeaten is a positive? we could draw the remaining premier league games and finish unbeaten mid table. It means fuck all unless we benefit from it. Drawing against this lot of shit is shocking.

We were warned by all Newcastle fans. Our own fault
We played well against City and West Brom. Apart from that we have been pants this season. Not enough pace in the side and no real backup striker. We got lucky with Kane, Son had a purple patch for 2 weeks and hoped Janssen would be a steal, but instead he is horribly short of pace and doing a Soldado impression. We don't look like scoring in a month of Sunday's. Our defence is making us look better than we are. So bloody frustrating 2 points against lesser teams. Aaaaaaarrrggggggh!!!

Maybe Sissoko is out 3 games, and N'Koudou gets some sub appearances...

I cannot believe we spent nearly 50m on him and Vincent, they may be slow burners but atm is very fustrating to watching especially now that we aren't winnning games

It may not be a bad result in the long run, however it's hard to say. At the moment it feels quite deflating because whenever we look like we may make that leap forward (going top) we seem to lack something to really kick on.
Against Middlesbrough we started very strong and took the initiative to blow them away quickly, we just don't seem to be able to do it at the pivotal moment. Until we can do it, we won't be winning the league I'm afraid.

In a tight game, I simply have no idea the logic in ever bringing Sissoko on. He will never score or do anything creative.
As pony as Alli was, at least he's a goal threat.
Surely Nkoudou can't be worse than him.
Two points from Brom and Bournemouth isn't great.

Few panty twisted entitled supporters amongst Spurs these days.
Performance was decent. Took over in the second half but lacked cutting edge against a well organised and hard working defence.
Verts has been rock solid recently. Another clean sheet.
All in all not the end of the world but we need to start winning these games.
