Well we lost today not because of deficiencies in defense but because of a lack luster performance in attack. We scored a really good goal within 3 minutes but from pretty much then on we never were really a threat in the game going forward. Far too many below par performances meant we never looked like we’d get a second to seal the win. That always left Wolves in with a chance and in stoppage time they pounced twice.
Disappointing.
Once again I felt Postecoglou waited too long with his substitutions and I wasn’t convinced Sarr needed to come off.
On a side note am I the only one who thinks Bissouma has not been the same influence on the team since his red card at Luton? I also thought his yellow card today was very soft!

Unfortunately have to agree. Son was totally not off it today and Kuku looked very tentative. Maybe just Monday tools it toll and players were leggy. Shame not to hold to least draw. 1 point would been massive when u see table now.

Has a season ever fallen apart so quickly- all in one game v Chelsea. We are back to going nowhere, as we saw today.
Yes bad luck with injuries (as well as the suspensions which aren't bad luck) but it doesn't really matter what the reason is, Spurs are condemned to mediocrity.

The start to the season has seen us miles ahead of where pundits, critics and even the most optimistic, diehard fans expected the team to be. Now, after two bad results (with extenuating circumstances) I don’t think it’s fair or appropriate to adopt such a negative stance as your post describes.

We deserved that kick in the teeth today. Far too much sideways and backwards stuff just like last season. I'm surprised Ange put up with it. We did nothing to threaten them and played safe passes all game.

And it is disappointing that he picked hojbjerg in the middle instead of Maddison. You'll never get the forward momentum going and you end up with Son playing like a regular nine instead of a false nine and he's crap at it.

Ill discipline followed by reverting to type (safe passing) and we've crashed back to earth in no time. With some tough fixtures next.

Maddison is injured and out until the new year.

Come on guys, some of you are taking this bump far too seriously. We are miles ahead of where we thought we would be back in August. We've lost 3 absolutely vital players from our starting 11 and several others had a stinker of a game. I get its shite but the world isn't coming to an end. Top 4 was the best I thought we could get this season with this squad and I still think we can get that. Everyone would have taken that in August.

edit and Bournemouth have just scored (y)

Feel for the players getting targeted. We all know they aren’t good enough but we are down to the bare bones at present.

Unfortunately Dier, Davies and Emerson don’t have the ability to move us forward with passing or the ability to drive forward with the ball. The aforementioned players aren’t bad defenders but they struggle when playing out, so the pressure just builds and build

The midfield make up was wrong, there was a huge Madders shaped hole and Lo Celso should have been playing.

Unfortunately we just have to muddle through. Top 4/5 and Champions league football was always the aim.

Don't think any of the 3 were particularly bad, but I never want to see PEH, Bissouma & Sarr in midfield from the start again

I don’t think he was bad, but PEH can’t play in front of Davies and Dier. It’s just a triangle of hesitation. By the time they’ve decided where they want to play the ball, any decent opposition is in place to win the ball back with ease.

PEH does this thing where he runs in to a 50/50 challenge with his arms spread wide, not really over-committing himself and usually loses it, and it makes my shit itch Every. Single. Time.
