May be that I’m misremembering but wasn’t last game a lot like some of ones at the start of this season where we had loads of possession but didn’t really create any real opportunities. We then let them back in with a sloppy goal and then compounded it with another keystone cops moment to gift the victory. After that we had ample time to get an equaliser but again didn’t create anything and let the game petter out.

I hate that these lot and Chelsea always raise their game when facing us yet we rarely seem to do it to match them which is the bare minimum that we should expect.
I was just about to say "but we're not playing Chelsea" and then I re-read it with a pause after Chelsea and I got it!

I'm not one that likes to highlight my woes but I've been in hospital for the last 6 days with quite a nasty case of Cellulitis. Hoping Spurs can get a win today.

Fellow Spurs fans, never get complacent on the dangers of infection!

Coys.

Actually played really good attacking football without Son in the team. A large part of that was Werners ability to stay high and wide and run in behind them (as well as Johnson). Son just doesn't do it that much these days
Yep our best all round performances (United away and first half v Brighton) came without Son in team. Id have him starting on the bench for this one.

Players have a LOT to prove today. You can't win every game, and we're still in the process of rebuilding with a completely new style of play from the last three managers.

But last week, in the second half, every single player somehow forgot how to play football, forgot their responsibilities and tactics, and lost all organisation and energy. Every single one, at the same fucking time.

It's normal for a player to have a bad game. That happens. It's not unusual to have a few play badly, though that's far from ideal.

But the ENTIRE TEAM just completely losing the plot in such a dramatic, comprehensive fashion is simply inexcusable and, for me, deeply troubling. That's not a skill thing, it's a collective psychological thing.

I'll also add that Ange needs to be far, far more proactive with subs when events change on the pitch. Our opponents consistently change tactics mid game and Ange seemingly has no answer. Strengthening the midfield after we'd conceded thee goals was amateur hour.

Timo is rightly criticised for his finishing but it’s good to see his strengths also highlighted.

I’m sure it was on here that I read someone say we’ve “badly missed” Son. I did not agree.

Who’s on the TV with Crouch and Glenn? They’re filming in park lane square but couldn’t make out who the other guy was.

Got a feeling we’re going to blow them away and give them a humiliating thrashing. Can’t wait for tomorrow 😁
Can't say I'm as confident. Bowen and Kudus will be licking there lips at the amount of space in behind.
