Disagree with that analysis, balls up to him have been poor & from a half decent ball he laid on a great chance for Dele, plus he brought a great save out of their keeper.

Vertonghen is poor, Eriksen & Lo Celso non existent & Dele doesn't look fit, plus Aurier has gone back to being crap.

Why has Mourinho gone from 1 extreme to the other?

Away from home as well, WTF is he thinking?

Surely you start Dier with 2 CAM's?

Instead he starts 3 Cm's with how many minutes football between them?

Inexplicable.
Stop feckin’ complaining. First you want Dier dropped permanently then you want him in. Think yourself lucky. We could be and should be two goals down against the bottom club who are playing good football, threatening whenever they come forward and yet.... we are still in’it (sic). Second half with a full team of expansive exciting footballers we will win this. You wanted Jose now see how he reacts!

I'd get Lamela on for Alli, Eriksen or Sess (in that order)
So at least we'd have someone on the pitch that looks like they give a shit.

but it is strange that this lineup can't keep the ball and get some passes between them.

It's because we don't pass it or create space. We fuck around going step overs, pirouettes or trying to beat a player on the half way line.

There is no zip, fast transitions or one/two touch football. It's all running into congestion or holding onto it too long.

We should be about to keep hold of the ball for 20/30 passes with the players we have on the pitch. I don't think we've strung 5 passes together

We so badly need a new goal keeper, right back, left back and a holding midfielder (unless Skipp is frickin’ given a chance!).

We’re like the spurs of the nineties at the moment, spineless and pussies.

You can have as many pretty attacking players as you want but without the solid base they’ll go missing and lose confidence and the team is bullied.
We also need a new partner for Sanchez unless Tanganga is given a new contract and up to it. Toby is not good enough anymore. I do not understand why the hell we gave him a new contract.

In response to some people saying 'we' have been calling for this midfield for ages, I dont think many actually asked for this specifically. It is evident we need a defensive mid in there or at least someone who can get stuck in and has some power. It's just we so often had the other extreme. But yes, this is a midfield out of necessity rather than choice. But still, its a bit early to comment yet, I wouldnt be surprised with this ending 1-2 again.

I'm really not getting the Ndombele critism.

It's fucking odd

I get it.

He cost a fortune and he's essentially pussied out of playing a recent game. I don't think he's been terrible but he's not been great and people will have been watching him closely.
