Sorry but that's pathetic. Where's the leader on the pitch and/or poch to make sure we get to half time at 1-1. The diamond doesn't work. It just doesn't poch. We can still get something if we up it.

Huh? We should have scored 4. Something’s working ?

It’s the formation. All the extra running means we look so tired. Can’t close the ball. Also players are all over the pitch trying to cover acres of space.

It is no coincidence now that the five minutes before half time in what 4/5 matches have been so poor
Agreed. Looked pretty leggy after all the initial pressing. Covering too much space.

Any possibility that should have been brought back for the joke of a dive before it? Bloke blocked Ndombele from getting to the ball
Yeah the cheating count blocked Ndombele off after making it look like he had been shot and made the pass to Lewa.

Just seen both goals. Tanguy responsible for both which is hard, as he has been good in attack.

Most balanced attacking unit this season - Alli makes such a difference; his movement is so good that it frees up space fort he others. Ndombele also looking like a real asset going forward.

Said it before, we have too many thick players. After we scored too many of our players started playing like they were winning 5-0, Harry-over rated-Winks doing his usual trick of spinning around with the ball and giving it away to the opponents in dangerous positions, Ndombele trying to be too fancy and Son being greedy as ever.

Bayern have worked us out already we’re so narrow and all they have to do is keep pinging it wide. We just don’t play to our strengths, we seem too concerned with how the other team is going to play.

Having a dependable defensive midfielder improves our defence. Not having one means it's never gonna be as good as it could be.
Insane to me people continue to criticize the defense when they just get bombarded with attack after attack. Something is going to leak eventually. Our midfields defensive ability is killing us.

Hi spursofficial, unless you want away fans to keep getting battered. Stop letting them in the home end.

I see this diamond is working nicely again...

Not winning this unless we revert to 4-2-3-1, but that’s obvious to everyone apart from Poch.

Someone needs to address to Poch post match our lapse of concentration AGAIN, clearly what he’s said before about it hasn’t worked

Defensively we are an utter shambles and it’s down to Poch only. Play someone who can help the defence for crying out loud. We concede so many goals as a team and it is scarily obvious and I’m completely flabbergasted that Poch can’t see it

One person to blame one person only the person that told us to stop pressing and retreat deeper as soon as we done that we handed the momentum to Bayern

If he sticks with the diamond we need to attack with that then drop into a more 4-5-1 style without the ball.

Some good signs but we are tiring. Hoddle was right about our midfielders covering too much ground. I don't think we've done anything horrendous defensively apart from not closing Kimmich down, but it was two moments of supreme quality. We have to watch the edge of our box.

We are losing but I think we will won this. At least a draw. But it has been an encouraging display.
Some of our passing have been excellent.
Rose sleeping.
We should just clear in defense instead of pussy footing around.

Oh and Kane to score from far out like he did preseason

Well Chris Waddle isn't being very complimentary:

'Tottenham have been wasteful'
Tottenham 1-2 Bayern Munich

Ex-Tottenham and England winger on BBC Radio 5 Live
When you play against quality sides you have to take your chances. Tottenham have been wasteful, they have not taken their chances and it's hit them just before half time. I thought Tottenham played well for 35 minutes and they have had so many chances. They could have scored four in the first half but they haven't. At this level of football you have to play better, you have to take your chances that way you don't end up in a position they are in now. Bayern Munich are now in control of the game.

Cant defend properly, no DM and cant finish for anything. Not exactly a recipe for success against a top European side. So this shouldnt exactly be a surprise. Where does blame go? Some on Poch for selections, some on Levy for not improving us over 18 months, and some on the players.
