You clearly aren't watching closely enough. He offers versatility that no one else does FFS. You see one week he's bad at passing the next defensive responsibility. When you throw in his consistently anemic contributions to our attack then you have a player you can count on and must be in the starting XI...and under no circumstances must he be subbed if he is having stinker as it might hurt his confidence and detract from our net pointy and shouty statistics.

Yes, I am upset, @Bobbins. I'm not smashing my furniture, but I thought we gave a very poor account of ourselves.

What ego?
You do know Harry doesn't pick the starting 11 don't you?

I think strangely enough lamella would work deeper with a holding player next to him, doesn't beat a man or ever give the defender the impression he could run behond him, makes him ineffective offensively. I still think he was ok tonight, alli and kane offered far less tonight and will be unimpressed if both start on Tuesday. save kane for Saturday, I don't give a shit about his golden boot, he needs to rest and get fit.

Can you really be Spurs if there’s not a part of you that thinks Chelsea will still catch us?
I’ve seen us fail more times than I care to even think about. What can go wrong for us, usually goes wrong.
Maybe it’s the trophy drought affecting my thinking.
Maybe it’s just me?
I’d absolutely snap your hands off for the FA Cup and 4th right now. Anyway COYS??

Have to give credit to city who are very good, but that can only extend so far.
Its been a long time since I've seen us use the ball so badly. There was a period in the match prob from about 30-70 mins where we controlled the tempo and the majority of the ball. But we failed to do anything with it; we were hesitant and indecisive in the final third which is a rarity for us.
The first 20 mins was embarrassing the amount of times we gave the ball away and often not due to pressure.
It's so disappointing, city are the best team this year I'll certainly grant them that, but I've watch us play them twice and don't feel we've given them a proper game in either.
Couple of other notes...
Kane woefully unfit, hope it was just because he needs the minutes for next weekend.
Sanchez, I'm not convinced at the moment. For me he's one of those defenders who relies on his pace to defend; he has a long way to go being only young. He needs to watch some Ledley king videos

This is the yardstick that MoPo should use to measure the quality of our team. It must be obvious that we do not measure up.

If Harry says he's ready to go and wants to play Pochettino will play him. I'm questioning whether Harry is true to himself in that regard.

I predicted a much better performance than we showed last time.
If anything surely Poch would have learned that if you're going to go for it against City you have to be 110% committed to the cause. Everyone has to press. Either that or we set up to play on the counter which is how I would have played it considering our fixtures this week.
It was much the same of this timidness that depressed me. Half arsed pressing, but not closing gaps and restricting the space either. The first 40/45 was abysmal.

Anyone else think we’re attacking verge selfishly at the moment? We don’t seem on the same page and it looks like everyone is just trying to grab themselves a goal.

Thought we were looking really good second half, but the jammy sterling goal killed the game flat. Didn't help that half the stadium got up and sloped off on 80 mins. Shite atmosphere tonight, start to finish. Very odd. Maybe the Saturday night thing?

I’m hoping this will act as a big kick up the arse for next weekends game which is far bigger for me
