No way these players are busting a gut for their manager, his days are numbered.
It's really quick stark to see Chelsea having unlimited time with the ball and our players not making any attempt to run to the ball and close Chelsea down.

This whole shambles is 100% responsibility of the manager.
He’s not got a scooby-doo of how to set-up, strategise, manage and motivate players in this current era of Premiership football.
Tottenham don’t have bad players....they have poor management.

Tottenham need a young, inventive and infectious manager.
Someone with fresh ideas....and a cheeky glint in their eye.
Someone that takes responsibility and can galvanise the people around him.

I'd take a 9-0 spanking tonight if it meant Mourinho gets the elbow tomorrow. Fed up with this turgid, clueless football.

This is utterly abysmal.

The fact that 8 of these players were regularly in the squad for Poch, and shit then too, is the most depressing thing.

If you think someone else is coming in to make these wanks vaguely competent, I’ve got some magic beans for sale.
This is all on Daniel. No manager can fix these players who mostly all needed replacing 3 years ago. But Levy is too thick to realize that. He'll probably give Dier & Davies a new deal in a week. But maybe another manager can get us looking actually semi competent going forward.

Was that Sissoko who just passed it back to the defence?

He had plenty of space to turn

has there ever been a collection of footballers who look as terrified at the prospect of playing football than our current side.

They always look so laughably scared of everything related to playing a game of football; the opposition, the ball, having possession. Chelsea literally said boo at the beginning of the game and they shat themselves.

It has to stem from a culture of negativity, and complete refusal to even contemplate trying to play progressively.

At least if Reggie was playing he'd push James back. Davies' starting position is the byline.

Just like the weeks before, individual mistakes will cost the points but Jose gets the blame

But surely Jose deserves some blame? The way we set up invites pressure and that pressure results in individuals making mistakes.

At least we got a response from the goal, haha, it's like nothing happened today or the two months before...

Just watch that back line they have no idea who is behind them at any point.
