Gormless post

Is it? why? Cos it don't suit you're rose tinted, muggy views? You will be here all summer hoping we sell players that no one wants and that good players will be retarded enough to play for this money hungry shit show.

Who are the gormless ones? The mugs that keep standing for it.

I remember once having food poisoning so bad that I spent a couple of hours locked in the toilet excreting liquids from every orifice.

Given the choice between having that or being forced to watch that match again I think I would just pick up a bucket and take myself straight to the bathroom.

Feel pretty sorry for anyone who travelled.

it seems Pocc would only stick with one plan without making any changes tactically. there is never a plan B. if kane and/or Eriksson are not in the game, the entire team is fecked.

horrible to watch but at least we kept a clean sheet.

Paulinho paulinho Paulinho.

We knew he was shit 18 months ago.

What about the rest of em?

Danny rose is the only player who has turned up all season.

Fucking gash every week.

I like it. What tune is it sung to?

Once again - No passion. The hurt and pain I feel when we do turn over the easier team convincingly is incredible, why do our players not feel the same, it is embarrassing to say the least.

I can't see how anyone could not have had their faith shook in Pochettino these lack 6 weeks. His management of the squad, team selections, and tactics have been utterly baffling. He had a team that was implementing his style after the Liverpool game, and summarily dropped Dembele and Lamela for 9 out of the next 10 games. Dembele didn't even play today.

Poch shouldn't be naive. This isn't Southampton. No matter what anyone says about the greatness of bringing through academy players and being patient, you don't get results at Tottenham and your job will be under pressure. If he's relying on Levy backing him this summer with "his players," then he is in bigger trouble than he knows.

Was thinking that, if he expects to get half a new team with his type of player, he's in for a rude awakening. He might get dempsey on a loan if he's lucky.

I thought the plan was to find a manager who could work with and improve what we have. Pretty sure that's what levy said in his statement pre Tim hiring

you slated me when i said Paulinho for dembele was a joke.....get your fucking brain sorted.
Ah, so you still don't understand, not surprising. I slated you and others because you freaked out like it was the end of the world because Pochettino picked a slightly more shit player than Dembélé one hour before the game. I didn't agree with the selection or defend Paulinho as a player, I just think it's ridiculous to freak out like people like you do as soon as you don't agree with a selected player. It's stupid and it's childish. I don't disagree with Paulinho being shit, he is the worst player I've seen in a Spurs kit for years.

Once again what has let us down more than our technique is our lack of mental strength. Far too few fighters in that team who want to win at all costs, and far too many who are content to pick up a large salary and then phone in a token performance every week. What we would give for a 2011 Scott Parker now...

The performance of the the team and Poch since the Arsenal game have been getting worse and worse. It's like AVB's "downward spiral".

I wonder if the fitness beasting in the summer is starting to tell on the players. We look listless now, where a few months ago we were hungry.

Poch has to take the blame too. Consistently picking the wrong front four.

Just like to remind everyone we have been thumped by Liverpool (more than once), Arsenal, City, West Ham and Chelsea in recent years. Off the tip of my head We've lost to Burnley, Stoke, Sunderland and Birmingham, Hell even Bolton beat us 4-2 under Harry.

Today wasn't great but I've seen far worse perfomamnces.

Team-selection wise, I have absolutely no fucking idea what Pochetitno is doing- and I'm one of his biggest defenders. He's completely lost the plot in that respect.

We all know about his philosophy so:

1. Why is he fucking picking players who don't bloody fit his own philosophy?
2. Why is he not playing the same fucking team that put in the perfect Pochettino-style performance against Arsenal?

Absolute madness.
