Even when Real Madrid got hammered the other day Modric got on the ball all the time trying to get things moving. Eriksen just watched that game go by, even when we dominated.

Why can’t we play like Fergie’s teams did?
They never took their foot off the pedal even when leading by a few goals.

Poch is good, but tell you what, Mourinho would not lose this game. Thus Mou wins trophies and we don't.

Negative ratings incoming but this is truth.

Some people still criticise Eriksen?! Give up man he was good today don’t know what game you guys was watching, he was creating chances to Kane but he missed them. Love Kane to bits but he wasn’t clinical today

And people wonder why we get labelled as legends. Because we fkin are thats why.
We play with such fucking arrogance it makes me sick. Its only when theres 5min left and we've blown the game we actually go for the throat.
The mentality is all wrong imo and it doesn't help when your manager persists in telling the world that cups dont matter and thinks he can change the starting 11 and formation EVERY FUCKING GAME and we'll still be as good!!!
They can all fuck off in the summer as far as I'm concerned Poch included.
We'll never win a fkin thing with this bloke in charge but thats ok because ot doesnt matter apparently.
Mr Levy, youve moved this club into a state of the art stadium but are so fkin stupid that in the most important transfer window in a century you decide to not spend a penny on players! A first by anyone anywhere ever. Honestly you couldnt fucking make it up.
How much investment do you think your new stadium is gonna pull when we finish outside the top 4 and are playing Thursday evenings to a half empty stadium?
You cant open the cheque book now mate. Its too fucking late. Nobody decent is gonna come to us now and the few top players we have are all gonna fuck off.
What a fuckin tool.
So pissed off right now.
That result may have just changed the future of this club.

Poch has questions to answer too though regarding our annual collapses.. I do agree with you though
Tactically he's been trying too hard. We never play the same formation for more than 1 game.

Partly I blame the need to accommodate Sissoko who can't play CM, can't play RW. So we end up with this weird unbalanced midfield.

Not Sissokos fault we should have strengthened in the transfer market.

And honestly. I love us being in the Champions League. But is it the end of the world if we are in the Europa next season? Of course not. Some of my favourite games have actually been in the Europa. Young players on the pitch. Great support with no particular pressure or expectations on us. Kane's first appearances and hat-trick, Lamela's rabona, Bale's free-kicks, Dembele's winner in Lyon. Hopefully we're in the UCL - and I still make us strong favourites for it, because a season is 38 games rather than 4 - but if we're not I'll still be there, having fun and supporting Spurs. Who knows - maybe it'll be the stage where Jack Roles, Troy Parrott or Samuel Shashoua becomes the next big thing for us. That's the fantastic side of football.

If Winks doesn’t play we never have control of a midfield. Some willing triers in CM in there but very limited footballing ability when on the ball.

Personally I clap the team off, go for a pint, and hope we win the next one.
And just pretend everything is OK?


I've only ever witnessed spurs win 3 trophies in my lifetime - and one of those I was less than a year old for. I'm done with the "there's always next year..." attitude. I want us to win something and actually stamp our mark on the world of football.


Apologies if you were being sarcastic.

Our whole backline was pretty horrendous. Don't think singling any of them out is fair as they all deserve a share of the blame. They picked a bad match to have a collective terrible day. You just can't get away with performances like that against an uber attacking force of Austin, Long, Simms, Redmond and Armstrong. That's a huge task on a great day!

Eriksen ran the game in the first half. Then we stupidly decided to put him in a number 10 role, Southampton pressed us and we could barely retain the ball.

You just knew our season would go this way after no signings.

The people running our club really played with fire and risked CL by not improving our ever aging squad.

Yup but mourino wouldn't go 1000 miles near a club like ours so the comparison is a little pointless.

People keep on saying that this season’s poor performances aren’t down to a lack of investment.

New signings are needed to freshen the team up and give players a kick up the arse.

We look the most complacent team in the league at the moment. None of the players look like they can be fucked.

That’s more a failure of Poch and the coaches to get the players motivated.

Even in the past when we’ve invested in the squad, we’ve still shot ourselves in the foot by being complacent. It’s an underserved arrogance that we’ve had for far too long.
