If you think our CB and GK was the difference between winning and losing today and not our front line, you simply have no idea about football.
We were atrocious up top.

It will be for massive money and for Europe's elite, that won't be a problem for a player like him. Even if we do get big bucks for him, where will his replacement come from? Our recruitment is hindered at the best of times.
What a fucking plonker you are.
No worries, it's all about opinions
I agree Poch could have done more, I just think we're a couple of star-quality players short of achieving something meaningful. And having said all that, nobody can deny that we're a better team now than we were before Poch joined us.
I agree that we don't have any iconic players that can single-handedly turn around a game. We could still win plenty of key matches though if managed more effectively.
The insistence on a back 4 time after time in key matches is baffling.
That's modern football though we know what that injection is it's cash
That means hoping that we get taken over by a wealthy Arab family like City
Eriksen put in a real shift today. He'll be gutted.
We'd get loads for him, but you're right - replacing him would be a massive headache. More money in the bank, but a less-creative team, most likely.
Any opinion on who these proven winners are that we could buy?
He was the best at Brighton too. I saw him really fighting both games Rest of themm... ughhh
I hate to admit it, but I just knew when Sanchez scored that we were done. And that wasn't melting, it was just 30+ years of following this club. When it comes to the crunch, we always ALWAYS choke. We are perennial losers. Thank fuck we've got a splendid new stadium coming. It will be smashing watching us choke there too....
We got that one absolutely wrong. We were best when we were running them ragged and giving them absolutely no respect. Then they picked up a goal entirely against the run of play and we completely changed, and allowed Mourinho to play exactly the sort of game he thrives in.
Fuming.
Fuming.
I think the best team in PL era to not win anything was Liverpools 08/09 team with Prime Gerrard Torres Mascherano Alonso Carragher Hyppia Reina
We certainly done well against an out of form Real Madrid side who are still in the Champions League and we also done well outplaying Juventus before they KNOCKED US OUT of the competition.
We beat Chelsea and Woolwich well. Both clubs are below us.
Peaking doesn't mean we're shit. It just means this current crop have taken us as far as they can. Just slightly not good enough to win the league or win us honours but provide us with an entertaining team and give us a new identity. One of which Pochettino has had a hand in.
I do agree with that.
Dembele, alongside Eriksen were our best players and I thought he was still going strong.
Doesn't matter now.
Gets to the point where if we get to a semi-final again we should dissect the loss before the game itself.
I don't know and worst is what really could we have done differently?

It's one of the main two gripes I have with Poch
1. Not being able to kill a game off
2. Not being able to make use of subs well
