Sometimes feels like Poch doesn’t show enough respect to the opponent. We’ve stuck four atttackers out there, full backs who get dragged out of position like they are playing as wing backs, and central midfielders who are neither here nor there.

Been like it for a while, too. We are so, so, open. Atrocious really, can’t defend as a unit for toffee

Dembele and Eriksen would make such a massive difference, just for the ability to retain possession a bit and provide for the front players more.
With the current form of both of them, I don't know man. They are just as frustrating at the moment TBH.

Should have had Foyth as DM.

Absolutely (if was eligible).

The team I selected, played with actually strategy would have fared better imo.

Poch has put 4231 out there with players who can't execute it against Barca, with no distinct gameplan.

Very disappointed in him tonight.

Levy not opening the wallet is proving to be borderline neglectful. Clearly wasn't thinking about our on-field success at all
Well if Poch was content with not having signed anyone in the window (which I don't believe for a minute), he must be having second thoughts.

Winks started brightly but has since disappeared.

On a slightly different note, it's sad to see the players heads down like this. They already look defeated.

Lets face it, that is a slapped together shambles of a team. You cant go up against Barcelona with 4 key players missing and 3 who've hardly played in weeks. It would look disjointed if we were playing bloody Huddersfield nevermind Barcelona. Even so the fk up from Lloris and Sanchez giving the ball away trying a 30yd through ball along the floor was fkin shit and stupid at any level.
Oh well Cardiff at the weekend.

HT Spurs Fuckwits 0 Barcelona 2 (Lloris 2, Sanchez 28) Interested to see if the Ref just puts on a Barcelona shirt for 2nd half, Poch needs to give him a beasting.
