How long can the tiredness from World Cup duty be cited in relation to player performance? I can't recall ever having heard this being said of players for an entire season.
ETA: our team definitely is looking tired, though I think it's reasonable enough to chalk that up to injuries limiting rotation and an element of fixtures piling up. Ajax, by comparison, got the weekend off because the Dutch FA wanted to give them every chance.

Of all the positions this is one I would leave be.
He has great potential and has shown that last season - this season he hasn’t been as good but that’s no reason to ditch the lad.
Him and Rose are pivotal to the way we play - and will be very hard to replace.
There are other areas : central midfield and strikers where we have more of a need to strengthen.
We would be mad to make heaps of signings - so focus on the areas that need it most.

Tied with Alli and Wanyama for worst performance last night. Corners, free kicks and crosses were all terrible. Should be dropped for KWP. Gladly take anyone offering £25m for him in this inflated transfer environment...
This is what gets me.... he should be dropped for KWP?
KWP has had half a good game in a spurs shirt. The rest he has been poor - a lot worse than Trippier.
