So pissed off tonight, even more than last Sunday. That was terrible game management and if we could see it coming how could Poch not see it. This is going to be a long season and we need to lower our expectations as Levy has fucked us again with the transfer window and letting one of our best players leave and not replace.

Its no surprise the best defence last year have made 2 shocking errors in the last 2 matches.....! wouldn't have seen that last year
I love Kane too but he has pissed me off tonight, the chances he missed today and then to take the free kick off Eriksen... he has to learn when he is not on it.

So fed up, no we wont get relegated but we should certainly stop talking about the title.... fuck sake people are laughing at Arsenal they have 1 less point than us and have played 2 away from home already at Stoke and Pool... not easy grounds, they finish above us this year 100% so laugh at them as much as you want, they will be laughing come end of season

Only thing that lifts the team and confidence is some serious business this week and that doesn't mean Foyth and Barkley ( who wont play until Xmas) we need pace, player like Mane is badly needed and Levy needs to sort it or we move to our new stadium with no European football...

Late stages horribly handled by poch. It just has to be said.

Not just the players bottling it at Wembley.

This whole "curse" is just the players and the manager believing it, even the fact Kane can't score in August is all mentality related.

Funny how Burnley spend £15M on a player and he comes up to score the goal that equalises it for them, it's almost like if you sign players early, before the season starts, you are then prepared for the season ahead.

I wonder when we will learn that fucking lesson? What a joke.

I just can not believe we continued to play like that for 15 whole minutes, they were constantly getting in behind us and our defense just kept staying as high as possible inviting them. IT LASTED FOR 15 MINUTES POCH!! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK! GAME. MANAGEMENT.

Huh? We took control and had 4 gilt edged chances after Son went off. Son was barely able to walk by that stage anyway.

The problem was our finishing. Kane's finishing.
Watch the game again after he goes off. We lost something.

I have to admit I was really hopeful with Trippier and was looking forward to seeing his attacking contributions but he looks a real liability out there. You would have thought after being horribly exposed on the right side a couple of times he himself or at least Poch from the sidelines would instruct more defensive positioning, especially as we already had the lead.

Pochettino has to take a lot of the blame there, going 3 at the back after Burnley went 2 up top just stifled the extra space that had been opened up in midfield.

Trippier had been caught out twice in the 10mins before the goal and still got caught out again, which is poor, very poor.

Tbh it should have been put to bed way before that, annoyingly we had the chances to do it

Aurier can verbally abuse every single member of my family if that's what's it takes to get him signed.

We have no width whatsoever.

Wembley, Lee Fucking Mason, Tony ****ing Gale, Shit fucking stream, Dier and Dembele in midfield, @Mr Pink whittling on about how despite Trippier pissing the creative stats, Walker's better offensively because he's got the two yard pass to Eriksen in his locker, Sissoko on the fucking pitch and then Burnley fucking equalise.

My love of football took one hell of a beating

Still, at least no-one ruined the Liverpool Arsenal game for you, eh?

:cautious:

We need pace in the attacking part of our team. All pochs attacking buys have been dreadful. Don't say alli as pleat was the one who made us sign him. Signing a defender poch is good at, attacker someone else needs to step in.

It was one of our problems, but certainly not our only.

Come on, stop those blaming on Trippier ffs.. Wanyama last week, Trippier this week, Dier in between.. The entire team has to blame isn't it obvious? The naivety of the team looks like they just played together this season without a cool mentality to see the game out... Fucking depressing...

And how could we got outrun by those fucking Burnley players... We should be the fitter guys but what the fuck happened when Dyche put on two strikers we got pimped..

Fucking end the transfer window before the league season, stupid FA.. We never had a great start to the season with all those speculations towards the end of the windows..

Why when we couldn't keep hold of the ball, would you put Sissoko on instead of Winks?
My thinking too. It's like poch is saying to levy - look how shit he is, we need GOOD signings....

So incensed couldn't articulate

Can leaving our transfer strategy late on justify Kane having another fucking abysmal August in front of goal?!

We'll bring players in but some of our big guns need to take responsibility here from last two games
