That was a smash and grab from Inter. We controlled the game for long periods and defended well up until 85min when an out of sorts player got lucky.

Absolutely fuming

Good job you didn’t live through Spurs in the 90’s mate. Although I’m sure you were around during AVB’s time, so maybe you’ve just blanked it out.

But yes, it has been a shite few days of football.
Not just the prem/cl mate. All around been an absolute freaking garbage 4 day period

Poch to blame tonight for our defeat, however, I am still confused why the owners ENIC invested with the clubs money heavily into an art of a stadium and did not invest further into the team, its like buying a very expensive Cabin Cruiser without an engine. I really blame Enic and Levy for our present situation.
That's a really brilliant piece of thinking. Send in your CV to Cambridge.

Incidentally does anyone know what the technical reasons were for Trippier and Alderwiereld not travelling?

I agree and I can't believe the massive overreaction on here. Thought we were decent especially in the second half.

And now we'll have a load of thick shits in the English football press trying to work out metaphors in Poch's cow comment. It's as simple as Cantona's, but because they are pig ignorant they'll still be trying to figure out the obvious after three decades.

  • Harry Kane attempted no shots in this match for Tottenham - only the second time since the start of last season that Kane has not attempted a single shot in a match in which he has played at least 45 minutes for Spurs in all competitions (also vs Man City in April 2018).

No idea, Poch is keeping shtum. I presumed it was just to keep them fresh, although I don’t know why he couldn’t have just said that.

Actually in the Standard today they explained it succinctly. Meanwhile in the Sun they had a two page match preview with every cow and bull pun imaginable crammed in :D.

I am dejected. A broken, beaten man. This has been the worst 4 day period imaginable.
Get a grip man. You must be a new Spurs fan. The mid nineties to mid early 2000's was dreadful. We are sixth and above United and Arsenal (you know the teams with double the wage bill) and just lost at the San Siro. Not the end of the world to lose there

We will turn it around. We are always slow out the blocks it seems

Apparently they were seen in North London with high viz jackets working on some sort of alarm system cabling

6 month contract so I’m told. Haven’t checked physioroom.com yet though...

Looked like he tweaked his ankle going round the keeper

I’m still banging on that that’s the problem and why his shots per game have fallen off a cliff

Unthinkable that Kane doesn’t have a shot.

A huge huge part Harry Kane’s game and mentality is ‘give me the ball, I’m going to shoot and score and If I don’t score with my first shot I’ll score with my 2nd or 3rd

He was having 7 or 8 shots every game

Zero shots in a game cannot be physical or mental tiredness

Really really hope I’m proved wrong

So far we've beaten Toon, the Cottagers and an unlucky to lose Yanited and we've lost to Pool, the Hornets and Inter. The midfield is a colander, our striker is clearly in need of rest and recouperation, several key players haven't signed new contracts, the Gaffer is talking in tongues and the concerns that arose out of Dannygate aren't going away. I'm not confident.

He need to get in a position where he can receive the ball and shoot.
He isn't doing that.
Defenders have him in their pocket at the moment although it is made easier easier for them as Kane seems to be 'marking' them

Once the disappointment has burned out we should try to remember that this group has shown enough resilience in the past to deserve our trust that they can dig themselves out of this rut. COYS!

This is the worst rut in Poch’s reign. Their ability to pass this test remains to be seen.

He gets no separation to even get shots off at this point. He needs a 2 week break and luckily we have the opponents that we should be prepared for it... Will we be prepared is a whole other question.
