F**k it. Tune into radio 2 folk show. It’s where the vibe of our team belongs: of the past with feelings of nostalgia; punching up with the odd hit; but with an acceptance that we’ll never pierce the highs of others. It’s a safe space - gather round one & all; don’t be scared or ashamed to acknowledge we’re mediocre: that’s ok

Conte is doomed at spurs if he has no better options than Emerson and Sanchez.

He will have too many games like this
I’m now absolutely convinced Conte will walk, it’s only now when than if imvho.
Again I’d be absolutely delighted to be wrong. ?

Agree. Romero was average. Anyone saying otherwise is just not being objective and actually watching the performance rather than going off the hype. Not saying he isn’t good, just that was a nothing performance.
I think it is easy to see the difference between him and Sanchez/Davies based just on performances tonight. He was the calmest in defence, calm on the ball, strong and anticipates well.

We're absolutely desperate for Skipp to return. Hojbjerg and Winks are lightyears off the required level. Is there any indicaiton as to how long Skipp will be unavailable?

Emerson was bought for a defensive coach. But he can’t defend.

Emerson was left as first choice RB under a coach who needs attacking full backs. But he can’t cross or dribble.

Seems like an overpriced recruitment fail. Again.

We're so weak at fullback. It so vital for a Conte team to have contributing wingbacks and outside of Reguilón - who can also be inconsistent - we have no one who can offers enough offensively. Even Doherty could offer more offence than Royal who just can't seem to cross.

Granted we conceded 23 shots and that is terrible, but our fullbacks need to start contributing more to our attacking play.

We all know this is a rebuild and we are still way short. We are targeting a CM, RWB, CB and a forward in the Summer. Today that was exactly where we struggled. Sanchez, Royal, Winks and PEH were all poor. Can't get Diet and Skipp back quick enough, and people laughed a couple of weeks back when I said Doherty was far better than Royal and should be starting, thoughts now?
Just a shame if we dont get top four as the quality of the CM, RWB, CB and forward might not being as good if we don’t get CL. I don’t see the likes of Kessie, Dybala etc coming to us if we don’t. Looking at tonight Conte will have to pull off a miracle to get top 4.

Behave.. Moura was absolutely awful bar the assist. Tonight’s why our transfer window wasn’t good enough.. Skipp injured.. soon as we went 2-1 up we needed 3 in CM. Couldn’t do it
...and assisted the first goal assist with a superb through ball..

I would have thought Conte would wish to respect and not demoralise Winks/Hojbjerg by starting the new players so soon.

But they have brought it to themselves I guess for being so fucking poor. They don't deserve to start next game at all.
I agree we can’t throw him to the wolves, but we need a controller.

I still can't believe we gave away 23 shots and 10 on target at home to Southampton, thats truly shocking.

Just watched the game. I hate this digging in for victory tactics. Playing like a bottom half team against everyone we play. Good on Southampton who try to play football

Targets are our targets, I'm sure we'll be happy in the Summer regardless of top four, which is still in our hands.
