Fair result. With all the talk of missed opportunities, it's the NLD, so the current form of both sides is largely irrelevant as it's effectively a cup tie for bragging rights (regardless of league standings). If I took anything from the game, it's that maybe Kane is guilty of trying to win with shots and volleys from silly angles, rather than playing it to a teammate in a better position. I completely understand why he does it - we'd all want to be the hero in such a game - but in this case, unfortunately, it didn't come off (wonder goal notwithstanding). Great game. Feel a bit numb, though.
Typical spurs...
I blame Poch, subs killed us. Arse are down to 10 men and he decides to defend the lead rather than going for throat.
Brilliant season so far, shame we just screwed up the title chase. Just hope Leicester win it.
Pretty good to achieve second (say) too. There will be plenty of more opportunities with this exciting team (and club, as importantly).if we dont win it it will be a massive opportunity missed despite how some may try to twist it.
We have four good fullbacks but not one excellent onethought kyle walker was backto normal, so many opportunities to put a decent ball in, all delayed and overhit.
Huh? Son was, unfortunately, a liability when he came on. Couldn't get near it and when he did he gave it away.
I personally think we have blown it, the players will be down now and they will know in their head if they can't beat a ten man Arsenal then the title is a pipedream.Sorry but this week has not been good enough.
We wanted a test of our title credentials, this week was it. Two hard games, 1 point.
It was a mini test of what is to come because in April/May we have a run of 5 matches and they are all very hard.
Oh and look below us. United win this weekend and they will only 5 points behind. And they are fucking shocking. It really does make me wonder where we'd be this season if we could kill teams off.
Sorry but 2011/12 still haunts me. We surely can't let this slip now?
Because we didn't keep our shape. Ran around like headless chooks and lets be honest. Eriksen and Alli are very weak defensively. All we had to do was keep a bank of 4 and a bank of 5 in midfield and 3 points would have been oursDembele was good for his first game back but was knackered come second half, we didn't keep any control of the ball once going 2-1 up which is ridiculous as we had 3 central midfielders on the pitch vs Arsenal's makeshift one.
At least in 2 of those 3 games there won't be a big build up and they won't be billed as "biggest game ever". I think we got caught up in the occasion and started making mistakes once we went 2-1 up. I think these other games will have less pressure and less of a heated atmosphere so players should be able to stay more composed.it gonna be very tough for us to win the league anyway. Needed a won today. But problem is we still have to go to Chelsea and Liverpool. With Utd at home. I just hope we cam finish in top 3.
Hard not to be disappointed.
We never manage to put the final nail in their coffin. Ever.
We were very poor from the moment Kane scored.
Not bothered about Leicester right now. I'm bothered about grinding Arsenal into the absolute dust and gobbing on them as we walk away.
We've been close a few times past couple of years and it was right there again. You could feel it. And we fucked it.
Their goal absolutely knocked the stuffing out of players AND the fans. The fans didn't lift it at all any point after that.
Not as much than if they'd won.Nah, we fucked it psychologically. Arsenal, just got a massive boost
