Winks for NDombele fuck me...

 

[PhantoM47]

BT Sport team tracker bottom of screen had Verts captain... Thought it was Kane?

 

[Michael Mossey]

Winks in for Ndombele. This has to be some sort of joke. Eric Dier could hardly get in this Brighton team and Eriksen can fuck off. I fear Poch is finished.

Sissoko is showing heart

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

All the Trippier hater now beginning to realise what we had.

Haha really?

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

We all love 3 at the back right guys!?

 

[Dr Know]

The one thing shown today is the fans are the most loyal at this club

Here's the problem, it's going to be the Mourinho at Man United situation. Those players, by the end, mostly hated playing for him. If Poch is sacked/leaves, it's going to be the same situation here. It may be better for a few weeks/months, but it's all just a facade. We won't be bringing in anyone of note most likely for the rest of the season.

I firmly believe if this result holds, Pochettino is gone. My issue is that I am not fully convinced this is him. It's a squad that, as we all know, lacked investment until this past summer. We've got injuries to those recruits, players who, despite their social media posts (Toby), it's obvious they don't want to be here.

I said it in the Pochettino thread, but maybe the best move is to ostracize those guys, bring in Foyth, Sanchez, etc. before we sack the man who took us to new heights. It may not pay off immediately, but I'd want to be damned sure this isn't a player issue before we sack our best manager in recent memory.

Precisely the point though right? It’s in Pochettino’s power to ostracise them and he hasn’t. So the buck stops with him. Likewise he had the opportunity to strip Lloris of the captaincy after the drink drive incident and give it to Kane. Lloris has been pretty much pants ever since that incident so no-one can tell me it’s been handled the best way possible. Obviously lots of things have contributed to this situation but ultimately it’s the manager’s job to manage, and he’s lost them. Shame.

Mate right now I'm just trying not to think about Hugo.

Don't be a fucking ghoul. It's not cool. You'll get what you want.

Lol chill out sweetie.

Lol what did we have? He couldn't defend he had ok control and a cross.

 

[yankspurs]

Maybe that's why Poch so miserable pre season and at the start, he knew that the squad had turned into a bunch of ****

Yep. He wanted a reboot. Levy had other ideas

 

[leray]

Poch needs a Pepesque sabbatical

 

[thebenjamin]

Another change in formation. Pin the tail on the donkey

 

[panoma]

Winks would get no where near our first team of he did not come from our own academy.

 

[aRTy]

Team just look totally unmanaged to me, either that or they really arent playing for the manager. Same end result at some point.

Not seen the game today and o know it's only the sun, but it said he's been isolated and watching training via CCTV. Whether that's sensationist bullshit or not, it reads like the performance today could be the product of this.

 

[DFF]

All spurs in the second half so far. Relentless sea of turquoise.

Intimidating.

 

[gp13tot]

Reminds me of throwing my season ticket at Matt Ethrington and he threw it back lol last game when we were pony every year

In that game he got tackled by a season ticket. Was hilarious to be fair, the way he pointed at the ticket rather than dribble round it

 

[Bulletspur]

The majority of these players are at fault. They dont give a shit as they do not want to play for this club anymore. And havent wanted to for a while. Levy is at fault for not fucking them off. Tired of it all. ENIC has to go. We need a full on reboot. New ownership, management and squad(come the summer)

New fans

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

No but I am getting very concerned to say the least. This is looking like more than a blip and it will take a lot to get out of this rut.
As I said further up some players look like they are hiding from the ball and going through the motions.

Yea interesting to see what the pochin camp think. I’d still 100% love him to turn this around but I believe the signs have been there for a while and the best decision will be to part company and start a fresh, would be a real shame but just doesn’t look like the players are playing for him anymore
