Warnock thinks we shouldn’t have an advantage by going home, but thinks it’s fine we are disadvantaged.

Notice how no one “cheated” today.
So now it’s the stadium and we aren’t contenders....

How about the PL force them into the Welsh League where they should be

That is SO key to this...
The 'Wembley curse' was fine by everyone 'cos we were struggling with it... but now we're going back where we belong, it's now a problem 'cos we might 'benefit' from home advantage...
And yet the Kop provide Liverpool with enough additional home advantage that's apparently allowed!
Weird.

Not sure why he didn’t sub Kane after 60. Maybe he was worried that we might concede a flurry of goals again, or maybe Kane has mentioned that he wants to stay on longer if he’s looking like scoring. Kane sets a lot of personal targets for himself, so perhaps he’s had a discussion with Pochettino. He probably should have added at least one more goal in the second half.

Personally I’d have taken him off, but there’s all sorts of factors and potential reasons, including plain and simple bad management. No manager is infallible.

Absolutely certain that Kane will be coining his goal bonus & aiming for the golden boot. If he says he is fit to stay on, I can’t imagine Poch subbing him. They probably have some arrangement in place.
Sonny has been on a hat trick a couple of times recently and has been subbed- when I would have subbed off Kane (on the basis that Sonny deserves the odd match ball & he’s off to the Asian games soon so if he needs a rest, that’s when he should be getting it)

Maybe thinks it will gives us an advantage in the league/ cups etc.
Yet before the home game wasn’t he moaning about playing us at Wembley on the shitty pitch that used to be like a snooker table?
In the same game after Ralls was sent off for a tackle on Lucas he shouted to Kane
“Harry, well fucking done you twat”
Blaming him for getting Ralls sent off.
Then went off doing the same post match.
Surprise surprise he was at Kane and us again before this match calling Kane a diver.

He’s got something stuck up his arse over us.
Don’t know why that is.
Someone needs to punch him right on the end of that huge nose.
He needs it.
Gets away with everything, some of it well below the belt.
Yet he gets tolerated where others wouldn’t.
Honest Neil,should look in the mirror. He’s won fuck all but promotions and only one of them an actual winning title,wasn’t it?
50yrs in football
Probably got the hump with Kane as he’s got an MBE so young and Neil had to wait 50yrs for his.
That’s going to be awkward when Kane and Warnock line up before Liz at the Palace.

Has Warnick been given an MBE? For what, being a compete cunt?

Don’t hold back. Tell us what you really think of him.

Kane is much more than your Llorente front man though.
He does a lot of work deep and wide. Provides killer passses and chances.
Take him off it’s not only a goals your missing.
For instance, Kane could supply a deep killer pass for Llorente over 10-15 yards, but not vice Versa

Yeah that’s very true. He’s quite possibly the best striker on the planet, but also one of the best in the traditional 10 position.

I think he does need some rest though.
 
How important was the clean sheet today for the defence to get their confidence back?

Always it's important. When you assess the game against Wolves it was completely unfair. I think we played much, much better than Wolves but I think we dropped in our concentration in the last 20 minutes and we conceded three goals. When you see the data that we ran more than them, you say no, it wasn't a problem that we were tired, just a concentration problem. A little bit about discipline, offensive and defensive. It's terrible when a team like us didn't get a shot on target in the second half, because we showed a lack of discipline, in both ways. Today so pleased because from the beginning the team showed massive energy. I think that is the team we want and expect to see and perform on the pitch.

Poch's presser: Every word he said on Sissoko, Eriksen's contract and Kane
