Is something wrong behind the scenes at Spurs?
I think there is. Our manager decided to act like a fanny after the United defeat and spoke about "Tottenham with or without me"on more then 1 occasion. This is the same manager that stated he was dissapointed at Kyle Walker for rocking the boat when there was still things to play for (difference being Walker actually did it in private and Poch comes out and does it).

Wtf do you think the players think after hearing that? the same man that is preaching unity and togetherness decides to rock the boat after a defeat (and CL football is still not secure).



Today he made 2 big cock ups imo:
1) Taking Alli off before Lamela. Alli is a goal threat and is in good form....Lamela offers diddly squat.
2) Changes formation to 2 cb's against a team that NEEDS TO SCORE. Puts Llorente on and goes 2 up top.
 
The manager should look in the mirror, and answer some of these!

Why four changes from Monday when only one was enforced (Dembele)?

What is Lamella for (other than running around a lot)?

Why not give Moura a full game?

Anyway, put this debacle behind us and start to prepare for Wednesday. It's still in our hands regardless of what happens tomorrow. Just don't let it go to the final game
 
I can't even describe how pissed I am at this team now.. utterly disappointed! Our mindset is that one of a fucking loser team. We've play uncreative, boring, slow and unprecise shit football today and absolutely bottled a good opportunity once again. Fourth time this season we fuck up an important chance.. this team will win absolutely nothing in the next years if they don't change that attitude
 
Not often I let a Spurs match get to me however, that performance today was fucking shite.

Poch has to take some blame too, there is no way that Kane is fit and therefore he should be on the bench at the start and not Son. Fucked off.
 
It's becoming quite clear he is not the solution for Dembele eventually leaving. We should be looking at guys like Kovacic, Savic or Diawara to slot into our midfield.

I wouldn't sell him or anything. Get him another pre season under his belt and keep him for depth.

Don't think he's good enough to start though.
 
Llorente even being on the bench is surely only there as a "If we're winning by 2+ goals give this cunt ten minutes and see if he can actually do something so someone will buy him in the summer" option. He's not there because you need something productive to happen urgently.
He's literally here for his last pay out.
Subs should be there to help us out not make up the numbers.
 
...and today was SUCH a Sunny day...
Trust SPURS to piss on the Sun and make it a stormy day for all of us.

If we're not allowed to be pissed off with today, then what are we even in football for?
TODAY was designed to be pissed off with... kick the cat, row with the missus, and try- unsuccessfully - to explain Daddy's mood to the kids.

It will never work... cos they just don't GET it... but we do... and it fucking hurts!

FEEL MY FUCKING PAIN...
NO MELTS NEEDED...

I love Spurs until my dying day... and Have done for 45 years... but THAT'S WHY days like today hurt so much.

We'll come good, I'm sure, but NO ONE needs to tell me when to hurt, and when to be happy!
