Sounds Classic spurs in charge and take foot off pedal allow opposition back in and nearly lose the game.
Watching Spurs has always been a little like watching a film you've seen before.

Pochettino on Kane: "He was tired, had to come later into pre-season. He's better but needs time."
Yeah but it's all relative to budget of course.I seem to remember we finished above Southampton that year and beat them twice!!!
From what I saw we were awful for the first 15 of the second half, so we'll have to agree to disagree on that point. Yes we got worse, but we lost all momentum from the first half. And to be completely honest it should really have been 2-2 at half time, so weren't even that good first half considering how shit they were.
6/8th is optimistic at the moment and don't bet on us making any more signingsI'm not normally one for knee-jerk rants, but I'm so fed up now. We're boring, lack winning mentality and leadership and have no proper understanding about creating chances in open play and keeping goals out at the other end. And now we have a weak, imbalanced squad. We'll finish top 6/8 again, but that's not good enough. The football we play is awful.
It seemed to me that the substitution that did us the most damage was Mason for Bentaleb. We seemed to lose all forward momentum after that. Dier and Bentaleb don't work whereas Dier and Mason did.
For me, the wiser choice would have been Alli, as he has similarities to Mason, more dynamic.
Perhaps if he did not ostracise half the squad he would have more to chose from. I am sure Lennon could have come on and do a job today!!
You are suggesting that it was Pochettinos fault that he fell out with Ade and Lennon. As far as I understand it Lennon and Ade were undermining him, he did the right thing by telling them to find new clubs and removing them from the squad. Not replacing them fast enough is not Pochettinos fault.Perhaps if he did not ostracise half the squad he would have more to chose from. I am sure Lennon could have come on and do a job today!!
Is that you harry?I think it's quite reasonable to suggest that had we got our main targets secret earlier in the window and allowed then to have a preseason together we would secured between 3 and 4 points instead of the 1 we find ourselves with now
Those extra 2-3 points could be very costly come the end of the season
Worse still is it potentially puts pressure on us if we lose our next match or fail to win in the next 2-3 games
Ramos suffered like that after a poor transfer window
Ha yeah it is torture. There were positives for a long spell of the game, we have to try and pull some of them out of the wreckage.
Watching us down the years we've always had that one player that could do the spectacular, that one player that would get in any team in the league. Under 'Arry we began to become more than that, we had quality in almost every position, we were nearly there.
Now I'm just craving that 'one player' again.....
Don't understand why people are blaming Lamela wasn't his fault we conceded two goals if anyone to blame it is the defence. I thought Mason had a decent game too. Shame Harry went off injured it did changed the way we played quite a lot. We need a defensive midfielder and another striker. I say we need to go all out next week and sign Berahino, not sure who the other player is we need to sign but we need to sign him pretty quick.
¡Ay, caramba!
They were well in the game before the penalty.It's the WAY we concede that does my head in. A tackle in a stupid position and it lets them into the game.
A bad pass last weekend, the list goes on and on.
Then we compound it by not taking our chances.
