Also, with Poch basically surrendering our home form & Wembley this week. We are in for a hell of a long season in the league

We'll probably play the youth team in the FA cup too so we can concentrate on finishing 5th

Shocking. Attitude appalling.

Full backs absolutely terrible. Is KWP really worse than Aurier? Sissoko even worse.

How the fuck Son didn’t get a start is beyond me.

Some lad at Villa seems to be playing well. I wonder if he could do any worse than Sissoko, Dembele and Eriksen.

The final 1/3 Is just shit, if Kane isn't hot we really struggle. Oh and Rose's delivery is amongst the worse in the division.

If Son was on he would have scored both deles chance and sissokos, two poor attempts. Just giving their keeper, confidence and inspiration needed to keep a clean sheet.

Bloody pissed off. We've been generally better than Leicester, they've just been far more decisive. Every time we get the ball we are too scared to go for the jugular, every time they do, they break at us at speed.

Lloris didn't have a single save to make that half. Two unstoppable shots.

They are much more direct than we are. Think about this...Albrighton takes more players on then any of our players outside Son.

We don't have the personnel they have, but we also insist on taking it very slow on our build up and let teams sit in a packed formation. Bar the handful of fast break goals we have had this year, we insist on passing it around the box a la Barca, but we don't have the movement of guile to make that type of game uber efficient.

Our approach play is so predictable, because it's all to slow and laboured, we need to to pass the ball quicker. It's not like we're incapable of quick play. Very frustrating to watch atm.

We've got our Tottenham back! Since the Real Madrid game we have gone back to being as bad as the AVB days! Too many players believing there own hype.

Kane doesn't even have the fire in his belly in his running past few games after he was injured. He's constantly jogging for most part of the 90 minutes since NLD. That was the things that irked me most. Everyone seemed so unfit at the moment.

Pressure on Poch all of a sudden. New territory. Will be interesting to watch.

Besides, we should have been relegated in the 90's and we have a fuck-off new stadium almost built. Whatever. It's Spurs and it's all good.

This is the first really bad run of results we've had under Poch, and at such a crucial time too. I could see us losing against Watford too. It'll be very interesting what happens, but it doesn't bode well for the future direction of this current team.

Can these players start actually giving a fuck?

It's literally disgusting.

What does Sissoko even ducking do?

Sort it out Poch, since the international break we've been a fucking disgrace.

It's not CM, Dembele holding, everyone else in front of him attacking - its not exactly working right now as we're set up is it?

We'd get torn apart even more. One of the primary reasons we are struggling is because we don't have a defensive midfielder playing in midfield.

I'd personally switch to 4-2-3-1 and move Dier into midfield alongside Dembele. Take Sissoko off for Lamela or Son.

If Poch wants to keeping playing 3 at the back then he should bring on Foyth for Sissoko and push Dier up alongside Dembele.

After the past two seasons, the players seem to be struggling to give a fuck now that we're out of the title race.

We need to bring players in in January for once and put our underperformers' places in the team under threat. If Eriksen, Dele et al can't bring themselves to care about finishing in the top four, at least they would care about potentially being dropped going into the World Cup.

Find me players who are better than Dele and Eriksen than you can sign on a shoestring.

Can't keep changing formations after 20 minutes and expect good results.
