I think the number of games have finally caught up with the team. In the second half, they could hardly run, barely could muster enough energy for square passes.This for me is our biggest problem. Poch should never had taken on the spursy comment or did we should be taken seriously until you know you stamped this shit out. In all honesty, he should have assessed after Xmas period was finished before declaring our excellence.
He should carry on building on the phenomenal work he has done and is doing.
Being honest though, did you ever see us as genuine title contenders? I always get irritated with people in the media because I feel that they create the hype and then Spurs fans get accused of being deluded when we don't live up to it but a lot of people on the match thread seemed to believe that we were contenders. I kind of find it hard to grasp that we were ever genuinely in with a chance.Talk about a reality check! They always like to get us believing before humiliating themselves and the fans with a result like yesterday. No proper title contender will ever lose 1-3 at home to that team, that’s for sure. Just love losing to the shit ‘W’ teams some seasons.
*I’m just still annoyed, but I’m sure we’ll end up doing well enough this season.

Results like that are frustrating. It did seem like one of those games that could trip us up though. I had it down as a score draw but I didn't expect a defeat. I don't think that there is one answer to why we do this: mentality, in game management, lack of bench options...I agree, we aren’t realistically in with a chance. I guess I’m just bitterly disappointed in the manner in which this side seems to capitulate straight after doing so well. They always manage to pull the rug from under my feet. And I fall for it every time!

All of the above is the answer.Results like that are frustrating. It did seem like one of those games that could trip us up though. I had it down as a score draw but I didn't expect a defeat.

All fair points.Not enough midfield options and too many games to play is probably the answer. Poch should react quicker sometimes too I reckon.
