Ratings vs West Ham

[Bulletspur]

What do you want me to say?

Our worse performance by a country mile. No MOTM deserved in my opinion. All played below their usual standard

 

[Borks]

Not one player in white wanted to win that match, the performance was 100 times worse than the result.

 

[tobi]

I don't think any player or coach comes away from this with any credit.

Alli made a slight difference for a few minutes but he soon regressed like the others.

No composure at all tonight, very disappointing.

 

[Danny1]

A very very very poor performance tonight by everyone I thought. Not a single player can walk away from that with any sort of pride. We gave the ball away constantly and if I'm being honest (I dont want to be), West Ham were just far far better than us in every department. They played with strength, pace, power & a will to win which were all lacking from us tonight.

At full backs I thought we were extremely poor tonight, usually its our best weapon but tonight both Davies & Trippier were poor, Mason I thought still looks rusty and woefully short of match fitness, huffed and puffed but didnt do anything. Then everyone who went forward for us was poor, no quick passing, not a single shot in the first half, and I have to say that Mr Kane needs to buck his ideas up as he has been poor for a good few games now (Big learning curve for the young man I think!)!

Onwards and upwards is the only way to look at it, much bigger game on Saturday against the Scum who also lost tonight, at home, to Swansea! We were lucky with other results tonight but need to react fast for the weekend, and with Poch in charge he will not allow a performance like that to happen two games in a row!

 

[Gbspurs]

No one gets over a 5. Terrible performance.

 

[beats1]

For me, we need a striker on the bench and that means start putting Harrison on the bench

Chadli was moved up front in the second half and it didnt work, we need another option, a real option

 

[IGSpur]

We just looked nervous, and West Ham were really up for this due to it being us and they are going for a Champs League place. We shouldn't just expect teams to win, we are humans. Arsenal losing might calm us but hopefully we will come back

 

[DubSpurs]

Shocking how poor we were tonight. Not a single player there tonight played well. Worrying going into the last 10 games.

 

[Lufti]

Not one player in white wanted to win that match, the performance was 100 times worse than the result.

Not at all. We struggled to create chances but we weren't that bad. We can't win them all. Beat Arsenal on Saturday and we're back on our way.

 

[TTID2002]

Alli "man of the match", if you can really name one in a game like this, purely for the sake that we looked like we actually might want to be there when he came on.

Shit performance, worst this season. No strength in midfield. Didn't look like we were up for it at all. Played long ball football, shyed away from 50-50 tackles, fullbacks didn't get in any sort of advanced positions until late. No energy, no pass and move, no looking to break, no real pressing from forward positions.

Chadli should stick to the subs bench, much better when he comes into games than starting them.

Son has the first touch of a horse.

I've seen much, much worse in recent years from us, but given how well we've played this season, this one is tough to take. First time we've looked a tad like our old selves.

I'm all for poking fun at West Ham for calling this their cup final, but it worked for them.

I'm all for poking fun at West Ham for bigging up Noble as an international midfielder, but he bossed our midfield today.

Can't really say much when they played us off the park for the first 60 minutes and contained us well for the last 30.

 

[Kirito]

Needed to start with Alli, Rose and Walker so we could have seen some fucking passion.

No one wanted it tonight apart from the other team.

I understand that Kane has played a lot of games but those two chances he missed cost us the game as well.

So frustrating.

[Grapo2001]

Don't think a motm poll is needed today.

 

[Pellshek]

Even Hugo gets poor marks today, which says it all.

Draw a line under it. Move on.

 

[jamesc0le]

moussa swansea-le 10
spurs fans -10 thinking everygame should be won

lamela shoulda stayed on - our most dembele-like player (if that makes sense)

chadli starts. REALLY? no more than one passive player to start games please (think eriksen, chadli)

 

[BringBack_leGin]

I'm going to pre empt the wrist slitting with a suggestion that West Ham were actually very good, especially first half, and that this defeat was more about their very good performance than our bad performance. Yes, we were below par, but there is a reason why they've beaten every other big club in this league. This isn't France, there are hard games below the top four teams.

Gonna hope this is a joke.

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

Lloris - 4, Thought of all people he would step up. His distribution was terrible. Terrible.
Davies - 5, Shouldn't have started over Rose. I expected more, but he offered nothing in attack.
Wimmer - 6, Fine, but not great, looked slow.
Alderweireld - 7, Our best player I think, which isnt saying much, at least he looked like he was trying.
Trippier - 5, See Davies.
Dier - 5, Crap, couldnt control or pass a ball for shit.
Mason - 5, Do not see what people see in him. He's been out of the side, and we've looked fantastic in midfield. Now he's back.
Chadli - 3, His sub contributions recently have made me warm to him. His performance tonight reminded me why I prefer him on the bench.
Eriksen - 6, Just wasnt his usual classy self tonight. Looked tired and couldnt control the ball.
Lamela - 6.5, WHY was he taken off? Didn't look at his best, but fuck me he was giving it a go.
Kane - 3, SHIT.

Son - 1, He looks worse every game.
Alli - 6. Changed the game to an extent, but looked clumsy.
Carroll - 4, Not good enough for a title challenging team.

 

[samspurs92]

We never do well in environments like that. Awful weather, awful pitch and too much to gain.

Chadli shouldn't start another game this season, he was awful and the goal was solely down to him being incompetent.

Please can people stop saying Trippier should be playing instead of Walker too. He defends way too narrow and he doesn't have the same presence on the pitch.

Such an awful game and performance, we should just forget about it and move on.

 

[samspurs92]

Kane looks worryingly ordinary at the moment. He's lost his spark and we really need him to find it again.
