+ Nabil Bentaleb + Tom Carroll
Winks is not our saviour.
The second coming of Rasiak - hasn't thought of that one (late edit - what about the second coming of Andy Booth)
I remember Kane scoring an own goal against Swansea from a corner. I don't recall Rose doing that, do you?
Toby gives the ball away and on Saturday (and previously) he brings the ball forward so slowly now he actually brings pressure on our defence.
But the real question is, why have so many players who have played at such a high level previously now playing so poorly. I think Jan has been hap hazard in the last few games, our centre midfield has been woeful and Harry Kane? I'm surprised no one has reported him missing to the police.
Everything we needed in the summer never happened, after a good start, we're starting to reap the consequences
I can't wait to see Dier dropped. Literally losing more and more faith in him every week. Watching him play football is like watching a 5 year old play with lego - all he ever attempts is the brain dead basics.
Kane needs dropping ASAP. I don't care if we have to play with Llorente or fucking Vincent or with no striker at all.
Davies was shocking, which was a surprise.
Dembele played well.

Watford, Liverpool and tonight were not due to no one coming in the door in the summer. The team played poorly and Poch seems to forgotten everything he had learned over the past 4 seasons with the squad.
No new signings is going to hurt during the busy season, late November through early January, when we play 13-15 matches in 7 weeks. So, wait to lose then so you can gloat, I guess.
Mate come on, that was awful. No better than the Liverpool or Watford game. We had so much space and Inter were actually very poor and we still failed to create any chances of note
It's are own fifth column
Think the lack of rest and pre-season after a number of our best players were in the World Cup closing stages is really starting to catch up with us.
Too many of the players are looking tired/jaded - and that's why so many of them look off form and that is going through the entire team,
Also doesn't help that Dembele was obviously losing it last season but is still here and Wanyama and Winks are just coming back from long term injury and are probably not yet match fit.
Up to Poch to sort them out - we were never going to have bought enough quality players to overcome those problems out as we'd have needed about 8 players in.

I remember Kane heading balls defending from corners in most matches and today too, I don't remember Rose doing that, do you?
They hardly had a shot mate. Vorm was an absolute passenger. Even in the first half when they were pressing the shit out of us, they created nothing from that.
This felt like a shit FA Cup 4th round game, not a Champions League night.
I honestly feel like we've lost to a Young Boys type of team tonight. Inter are a shadow of what they used to be and they still had more hunger than us. Not getting that second goal with some real lacklustre finishing and play when we were 1-0 is as much to blame as our defensive shambles from crosses

May as well play the kids, as sammy would say.
I think Rasiak is better than Kane at the minute.
January's a bitch alright. Think Ajax would probably crack if we stumped up a huge amount for de Jong though. That if is as big as Diers head though, simply won't happen.
He's focused more on his diet than his fucking job.
I dont believe you saw the game
1. About 80% of the match was some of the worst senior league European football I’ve ever seen. For both teams.
2. Passing accuracy was laughable. Sending it to players who aren’t open or missing the open guy. When the pass did connect they were either backwards or lateral. We can’t seem to hit the incisive passes that leads the attacker
3. Kane is a shell of his old self. Not sure what’s going on
4. Lucas is the most dangerous player on the squad.
5. Rose for Kane in end.............................really..............really?
6. With Barca in the group, at least a draw here was a must.
7. ANOTHER set piece conceded goal
8. Ugh
