Handshakegate explained... Sarri mutters to self on way out 'I fucking stress all week about which goalie to pick and you don't make him make a save, fuck you Poch'

Come on mate how many individual errors leading to goals has Trippier made this season? Must be coming up to double figures now


How many countless basic errors did we make all over the pitch all game? Eriksen probably was the worst imo, should we replace him too?
Dome players we clearly need to upgrade on or they improve but the errors are coming left right and centre lately we can’t replace everyone

Could’ve done with Alli today. He always turns up against Chelsea.

I still can’t fathom why we decided to waste £25m on a guaranteed bench player in Moura either.

Pochettino needs to sort this thing out quickly. This attitude was absolutely unacceptable, how this team couldn't be more proactive? Every game is a fucking final, especially against Chelsea. I'm so pissed right now, never been like this in ages.

Stick for that second goal for Lloris a bit unfair. Trippier tells him to come get it, then boots it past him?

I’ve not seen anything like it. Absolute shambles.

Still, will make the NLD win that much sweeter...

Because Lloris should have come and cleared the ball into row Z in the first place

The most annoying thing is Chelsea were just as poor as we were, yet will get plaudits for a resurgence. The amount of dispossesions for both teams was astronomical.

Not sure we had a shot on target?

We've rushed Kane back again. Now he has to do 90 again on Saturday.

This place is going to be an absolute mess for days.

try a week lol, goons next and then dortmund away, our players look tired as fuck for someone reason and lack creativity, meanwhile our next two opponents are scoring goals for fun whilst our defence looks a nervous mess

The problem is, there wasn't a glaringly obvious problem to solve tonight because literally in almost all facets we had issues.

That for me is hugely worrying and let's not pretend this is inclusive of just Burnley and Chelsea because we haven't played well in the League for a good while

Had the same conversation well beforehand kick off.

They’re not necessarily the best ball players but the Diers, Milners, Ramos even Say it quietly Tony Adams give so much more to a team with their attitude, leadership and mentality.

Kane is obviously outstanding but he’s more of a figure head skipper. Not sure what Lloris gives on the pitch.

We really need so walk through fire for a result winners. Real grit mixed in with the ‘Tottenham way’ (!)

This softness does seem to endure.

I think it's prevalent in lots of footballers (perhaps all, bar the very elite), but when you've got a squad rammed full of quality then it hides it

Unfortunately for us, that's where spending a few quid in the transfer window helps...

I would even take Bale back now, he is 100x beter than Moura and Lamela. We have shortterm issues bigger than longterm ambitions are I am afraid.

Can't believe Kane is back, we look awful, when did we lose back to back with Kane, how did we win anything without him? Son all of a sudden looks shite

Kane coming straight back in completely changed a shape that we had finally built a load of momentum with. Took the focus off son, and we now look totally confused. Can’t go back now though the damage is done.

I’m fed up with hearing this shit.
It’s not about new fucking signing it’s about making basic errors.
Signing a new midfielder or striker or fullback would not have won us this game or the last it’s a team thing

If course it would. Because it would have allowed a rotation og higher calibre players throghout the season. It's not a team thing, it's a squad thing.

Everyone on here i surprised that Eriksen isn't taken off but we have no midfield replacements to speak off. We've got three mediocre fullbacks and Danny Rose, and we are counting on Winks and Sissoko to play basically every game.
