I hate losing but that just wasn’t a loss. The lack of passion was embarrassing. Jose’s brand of football has no place anymore.

He’ll blame the fact that the freekick was moved forward. That was just a feature of the loss, the real cause was his negative tactics.

There're so many shit players in the squad. The defence is still atrocious, especially without Sanchez. The midfield sucks, especially with Gio, and the forward line looks out of sorts and there's very little (if any) competition for that lot. LB, CB, CM, AM, ST all massive issues and that will take a shitload of money to fix

I feel like I've said it an awful lot over the last 2 years but...that was one of the worst performances I've seen from us. You can forgive a lack of quality if there's desire, you can forgive a lack of desire if there's true quality, we have neither and I don't think Jose's the man to turn it around, he may he a great coach, man manager and tactician but ultimately if it doesn't feel right a change needs to be made.

That being said we may just be working things out with the system, new players and we'll come good but the signs aren't there at all.

Meanwhile Sky Sports are previewing Chelsea’s new signings... Werner, Ziyech, Chilwell, Thiago, Havertz.

If that display doesn’t show Levy why he needs to spend immediately, nothing will.

A few more performances like that and Jose needs to go tbh. This squad is just fucked.

I do not think it is a case of the players being inferior form a technical perspective. I would suggest that the coaching and tactics is the main reason for such a disjointed team. Jose will point to three missed chances first half and us conceding from a set piece, and it won't be his fault. But it is.

But we could still get improvements in CM & LB

I've pretty much checked out mentally at this point. Mourinho isn't going to change. I don't think he can. We're waiting for Levy to reach the point when he feels its worth losing face over this failed experiment simply to save the club from disintegrating.

Southampton fans warned us of this but as normal with these types of forums our own fans are too blinded to see a bang average premiership footballer because how can a great club like Spurs sign a mediocre player...er where do you want me to start?

Sitting back and hope we get a lucky bounce and a counter attack is really going to serve us well. We're fucked if we can't play any sort of proactive football

Other than West Ham and Fulham everyone else looks way better than us. It's still early into the season and we will finish top 10 probably, but it will be a long season with some turgid football. We just have too many holes, still need a proper LB, CB, DM, another creative midfilder and backup striker.

And it’s games like that where I worry about Jose’s tactics as such low possession it’s hard to win games consistently when you done have the ball unless you’re ruthless on the CA. Doing it away from
Home fine but at home it’s a bit tiring to watch.

hope we make 3 more signings as we need em

Our 2nd half performance is APPALLING. Zero response after Everton score.

Was looking forward so much for the start of the season, thanks guys for pouring a freaking pail of cold water onto us! I do not want to name players but some of the "world class" players we have are JOGGING. Zero hunger! If you just want to come into premier league game just jogging, get out of our club!

Everton has a streak of no victory against the big 6 in 40 games. Guess Doctor Tottenham will see you now.
