Job done. Would have been disastrous to have lost that. Very good point, and we don't have to stew over the international break.

That said, we have a LOT of work to do on the training pitch over the break. We still don't look at even 50% of our best and we need to step it up big-time when the domestic campaign resumes in a couple of weeks.

You can only be hopeful that it seems the Jan spat may be over, Foyth will be returning, Eriksen appears to be part of the squad for the year at least, and the first 20 mins we actually moved the ball (and moved off the ball) at a much better pace. Lo Celso and Ndombele to get fit and hopefully after he break we’ll be in a much better place, having navigated two horrible away fixtures without defeat

I feel like we should’ve won..... We were 2-0 up, yet again we’re still not organised and lose concentration in the last minutes.....
Poch should’ve reacted much quicker
And we knew we could have a lot of counter attacks so why didn’t Lucas come on?? I’m baffled

Listen Poch is a world class manager but his tactics and decision at the end of first half and in the second half was very poor again

Thank God it’s international break we need it
Hopefully Ndombele, KWP, Dier and Sessegnon comes back from injuries and we go on a convincing winning run COYS
Poch, a world class manager?

Played city and arsenal away and not lost so not bad but how lethargic did we look second half we seem to take our foot off.

Two points from two away games that we normally lose so that's a step forward. If only Sissoko could stop blasting the ball over the bar in good positions could have been three points today.

Take a point away to City and Arsenal. Draw probably a fair result but it does feel like a loss. We were a bit all over the place but we had chances, played better than the last couple of games and put some sort of performance together at times.

Frustrating as hell at the moment but we get there. Conceding before half time cost us the game.

Gutted we couldn’t hold on for a win, but before the match I’d have take a point.

Currently we have drawn away at both Man City and the Goons. Those teams need/are expected to win at home and didn’t.

Yep we lost a stupid match previously but hopefully we can push on once the Euro window closes and have the team settle down.

Once Sissoko is out of the team we will be far far better. He is just too limited a footballer for a top side. He has heart and energy but not enough quality.

Xhaka booked after his 7th foul is a disgrace. To put that into perspective our 5 players who were booked comitted 9 fouls between them

He plays like a man possessed and with a point to prove. Hopefully it wears off soon. It's difficult to keep that up all season. It's how Kane was playing before his injuries started to pile up.

Ceballos didn't need brainwashing in the managers system he just played football with his own brain

Fantastic game to watch for neutrals, classic Premier League. Let's see how many points other teams take from Man City and Arse away. Newcastle apart, think we'd take this start

If we'd beaten Newcastle the same people shitting on the club and players would be insisting we were title contenders.

Our players left everything on the pitch today. If people want to shit on them - if that's really your first instinct - then those people need to have a good long look at themselves.

Pochettino is very talkative in the Sky sports interview. He seems really happy and talks about the end of the transfer window as a new beginning.

Excuses.

"Boohoo, the transfer window is open, so we can't play fotboll like a regular team even thou it's the same rules for the other teams in the league. Boohoo"

What about all the shitty games from last season? Maybe he should blame the transfer window on those aswell.

Dont bite mate.
Not biting. I'd just like to know which avaliable manager would do a better job. Heard a Utd supporter say OGS out last night, but he didn't have a response when asked who would replace him. So who exactly is the manager "to take us forward"?
