In his interview for norwegian TV he basically said (paraphrasing) "Bad first half performance, had our best periods in the second half, so can't blame tiredness." That's all he had to say.
Can't blame tiredness, just shit management and team selection then

Interesting he said that remark about tiredness. Was obviously very aware of it!!

Might do a highlight reel of some of Dawson's defending today. On no less than 5 occasions did he fling himself into a bouncing ball only to miss and stand helplessly on the halfway line.

I'm not singling him out.

Not singling him out, you say?

Baring 2 or 3 games this season we've been bang average in most at best. We are well off the pace in terms of quality for top 4 and only the rest below are so poor we'd be sitting in 7th or 8th.

We have just gone and continue to slide since Levy decided to part company with Harry his decisions since then have been abysmal terrible mistakes from a ceo of a major company

If we can't cope with the EL midweek games then we clearly aren't ready for Champions League football.

The EL shouldn't excuse insipid displays, devoid of character and zero coherence with regard to a discernible game plan.

Plus it was televised lol, just in case there was anyone left in the footballing universe who didn't know what spineless legends we really can be when we put our minds to it.
Triffic. Tim may as well have shown the public his anus in the after match interview.
Work is gonna be awesome tomorrow....

Yeh mate. The porter where I work LOVES Norwich......

I except to get massacred by them to complete this season's cycle of misery the worst spurs team for a number of years.


it will be a comfy two maybe 3 nil win with alot of misses for them cos they actually have worse forwards than us....that defeat has killed our season imvho.. even if southampton beat liverpool next week and we beat cardiff we dont have the fight or balls to challenge teams.. full of hot air is thfc

Fourth place was always optimistic in my eyes, especially with the defeats we suffered under that turd gayVB. It's the way we go about games that does my nut in.

Bentaleb is literally undropable?? He had a bludy mare today and Eriksen should've been in there, matter fact not just today but every game!

I don't give a shit if Dawson is captain, if you're playing shit you should be on the bench. He got done by grapsavaldhsbstandvilli on Thursday and pretty much every Norwich player bar the keeper! Kaboul, Eriksen, Dembele must start every game end of

Gutting. We were so close to something great. Bale, VDV, Modric and this is how it ends. Feels like it's going to be sometime before we are challenging again.

I think it's six of one, half a dozen of the other. Norwich did work their socks off, but we were dire.

Dire is a little over used I would say tired and above all 'unprepared physically'. Chelsea, Arsenal, City Everton Liverpool are so much fitter and stronger than us...........why?

This I know is a huge subject and not easily discussed here, but it was so evident today.

Can someone post the heat map for Eriksen from the first time we played Norwich this season in his debut for us? I just want another data point to drive home how fucking ridiculous it was that he didn't play today.

Everyone whining about europa league hangover, What do you think it will be like if we qualified for the CL?
I see this a lot and it's a fair point, but if no EL helps us qualify for the CL then so be it. Yes, if we did get into the CL we'd probably only stay in it for the season like last time but at least we'd be in it. And wouldn't that be bloody good?

I wouldn't be too fussed if we missed out on the Europa or at least stopped taking it seriously, particularly the group stages.

Simply awful. Leggy in midfield, no pressure on the opposition, no movement for the defence to find another player. Dawson was absolutely drivel today. If Tim could not see that three players at the back should not be in the starting eleven and three midfielders at least were leggy then we have trouble. Erikson should have started. I put Benteleb as man of the match only because he was tidy. Upon reflection, Lloris was motm and I thought Chadli did well when he came on.

May actually put some ratings together in a while once I have calmed down.

We never had it so good than vs Inter Milan CL night. We reached the top, battering the European champions and then when we could have went on and did something...we did nothing and signed Saha and Nielsen when sitting 3rd in January the following season 3 points off top spot. Always has been a lack of ambition at THFC, won't change unless current owners clear off.
