But even with defensive coaches, they should not need to tell players how to move into space and control a football.

horrible post, you say its not effort, but tactics, ever considered the players simply not good enough?People saying the players aren’t trying?…
Hugo - seemed to put required effort in to me, no chance with the goal
Porro - passion and up and down the wing all game
Romero - blocks, tackles, chasing and pressing high up
Dier - shouting and commanding all game but yes he is one who is a bit limp
Lenglet - defended well, we went to pot when clueless Davisson came on but no lack of effort from Clement
Perisic - up and down the wing crosses, blocks seemed to try to me
Skipp & PEH - outnumbered in there as usual, tons of headers and tackles and running. PEH going mad at Romero nearly giving the ball away
Kuku - did his best but in this formation he has no one near him to pass to
Son - low on confidence. Bad sub taking him off for Lucas
Kane - can never question his commitment.
So aside from Dier being a bit soft/limp and maybe Perisic arguably at best who else from todays game wasn’t putting in the required effort
It’s primarily the tactics that are the issue

I didn't watch the second half, did I miss much...
This.
I don't doubt that too many of them are just rubbish and severely lacking in personal pride, but having those rigid, joyless instructions drummed into you all season, while the same miserable manager essentially tells the world that you're shit, can't be much fun.

Conte shouldn’t be laughing at anything. Those were his shite tactics, formation and substitutions. It’s his fault we’re in this mess.

So, did Conte actually go?
This ones on Levy imo, and the rest of the season. Glad he gets to watch the CL money slip through his tiny fingers.
Shit decision after shit decision.
Should have gone and begged Poch to come back but no, appoint the assistant who will make no difference whatsoever.
Bloke is a clown.
Be honest, did anyone seriously think this appointment was going to work?

I agree with a lot of your posts mate but sorry i disagree on this topic. Tactics don't help but thats the players bottling as usual.People saying the players aren’t trying?…

Can anyone see Kane staying now after the last few games. He stands at the other end of the field a sees Lloris, Dier & lenglet pfaff about passing the ball between to the extent they invite pressure. To make matters worse Sky are waxing lyrical about Everton

How anyone looks at Sanchez and sees a footballer I will never know and to bring him on in that situation beggars belief!!!

Are there two worse footballers on earth to bring on in a game when you’re looking to calm things down than Sanchez/Moura? Human pinball machines the pair of them.

Dr Tottenham, your number 1 choice for even the most severe case of stasis of the lower bowel
Just like against Southampton,another situation where we fold when the opposition ramp it up. No control in midfield, no one you can look to get the ball to who can take the sting out the game. Obviously no comparison in ability but Modric at 37 is comfortably more mobile and dynamic than a 27 year old Hojbjerg.
Hojbjerg at times looks like a geriatric who'd struggle in a veterans game. He is next to useless when the opposition raise the tempo and really ramp things up.

I don't disagree, they are all to blame coaching staff very much included.
